We’ve all heard the cliché about how video games are a waste of time. Some of you may even agree with that to a certain extent. ButStarfieldhas recently bucked that trend by helping save someone’s life.Reddit user tidyckillaposted an image to theStarfieldsub, which shows a nighttime fire in a residential area.

The post goes on to say that they were up late at night on September 1, having bought the Premium Edition ofStarfield.

For all of us who continue to make the most of the night period in order to get some serious gaming in, this vindicates all those years spent ignoring a healthy amount of sleep.
