Ever spent 12 hours mining virtual resources in Satisfactory only to realize you're basically doing industrial engineering? These games have us calculating efficiency ratios, optimizing resource extraction, and designing automated systems—basically an engineering degree without the student loans! 🔧
Games like Astroneer, Factorio, and Satisfactory trick us into doing complex resource management and system design while we think we're just having fun. You're not playing—you're literally building automated factories and solving logistical nightmares that engineering professionals get paid big bucks for!
Next time someone asks about your career plans, just tell them you're getting hands-on experience in materials processing and industrial automation... at night... in your pajamas.
