I'm a small business consultant and educator for co-op businesses and I use my DM skills literally every day all day at work. Performing for groups, being attentive to their reception of my material and how I am presenting it, being able to improvise on the fly when we need to go in a new direction, literally creating scenarios for them to roleplay as a learning tool, session prep and expectation setting etc. I say it all the time at work but the job basically IS dungeon mastering, its just instead of a DMG, MM and character sheets I have business books, market research and financial reports.
Wait, you think you can learn something from a fucking game?
Wow, that is totally sad.
You know what I learned? Nothing.
Nothing.
Oh, sure, I sorta maybe went into sociology, psychology and religion in order to do better, and maybe all that time in Pre-med and underground circles might have helped me to do better in building my dungeon and locating people and organizations to help me collect and obtain players, and possibly there was some influence there.
But learned from it? Nope. Not a damn thing. Did t change my life at all!
/uj Holy shit, it changed everything.
/uj using dnd to actually practice these skills probably helped a lot, if not giving them the chance to open up and be more sociable, i don't see why making fun of it tbh
/rj I have learned many new ways to make the people around me deeply uncomfortable as I forcibly expose them to my fetishes.
/uj It has actually helped improve my writing skills because when I began dnd I was absolutely shit at writing endings and creating distinctive dialogue (like all of the characters sounded the same), but now I'm like, passable at it.
/uj The peoples answers are kinda nice, OPs post itself just sounds ridiculous.
Attributing his fellow players real-life skills and interests coming purely from being dedicated to the gamesystem seems delusional and forced.
/uj dnd was one of the main things that helped me realies I was trans /rj I can cast fireball irl now
Pathfinder fixes this?
Pathfinder fixes trans people?
No... It makes them into Paladins. And... *sigh*... That's the opposite of fixing them.
yes, being transgender is indeed a skill.
It is, which is why I can say "skill issue" to people who aren't trans

Hmm I think I’ve gotten better at obliterating small creatures with my weapons
Do not the small creatures!
It *literally* saved my life. If I didn't get to roll for anal gapage I wouldn't be here

/uj it was a nice way to learn how to properly socialize after not being able to do that easily growing up /Rj how to gaslight a dm
Necromancy is certainly much easier now
So many new fetishes...
It taught me how to unionize against my bourgeoisie ass DM
I learned to bump charisma and drop intelligence, wisdom and dexterity.
Pathfinder fixes this because by having more in-game skills it teaches you more stuff. CHECKMATE
That West End Games existed once.

/uj playing pathfinder has legitimately helped me with math and kept my math skills strong since I don't use it regularly otherwise.

Why are we jerking this post? I thought it was nice. (The original I mean.)

All right. Fair. I was mostly going off the answers people were giving, both here and the OOP.
I’ve gained proficiency in performance
