Right. I know plenty of people that spent 10k hours playing WoW back in the day. That's not a judgement. If you enjoyed those 10k hours good for you. Just guess

High-level WoW team players, and also Eve team players, are known to be in high regard in certain business settings. The orcs and planets may be virtual, but the skills of team-playing, knowing your teammates, strategy, resource allocation, quick estimation are very real and transferable.

  That's mostly the same reason they were highly regarded in WOW. I.e. it's not that WOW made them that but rather their skills were expressed in WOW.

    Skills get honed through practice. Sounds like their skills improved through putting them to use in WOW.

      Yeah but those skills could have been improved by doing other things too. I.e. it's not WOW as such that just a vehicle for developing skills.
