This is a profound lesson that games teach, though not all are willing to listen. Teamwork is a vital skill that every individual needs in order to succeed, without it the drama will ruin any project.

It's a challenge to learn this skill, but once learned it makes the experience extremely enjoyable. Especially when one learns to celebrate a team player's victory as if it was the victory of the whole team. To find joy in helping the other score. To give up the controller in a single-player, and not backseat drive. To be respectful to fellow gamers, and make many friends along the way. These are skill sets desired by employers; A life lesson that potentially sticks with a gamer long after they set down the controller.
