Certain games require deep concentration and resilience. Have you noticed improvement in patience or attention span through gaming? Which games helped sharpen your mental skills unexpectedly?
Gaming can certainly improve focus and patience. A study was carried among US military personal, a group was allowed top play games, where as another group wasn't allowed to play games. The group who played games had better focus and patience.
Challenging games have improved my patience and focus. Games like Dark Souls and Dying Light sharpened my problem-solving and attention to detail unexpectedly, teaching me to stay calm under pressure and plan strategies carefully rather than rushing into situations.
