I work with kids who are seeking vocational education, and I can tell you that it is definitely not just office workers.
A favorite is euro truck sim 2. Weirdest case I've met though is farming sim. I've talked with 16 year olds who'd play that game for hours daily. Even got a friend of the family who'll come home from driving a tractor for 14 hours straight, and then play farming sim to wind down.
Playing ETS2 is just something you do while listening to the radio, the long highway stretches of not having to reverse a trailer into the eye of a needle are superbly relaxing.
I know the farming simulator type of people. I think those people simply have a high professional interest in farming economy, management and agricultural technology.
Even more impressing than those who play every FS 20xx for hours I find those who mod for the games. Year after year they photograph, model, program and share their equipment, which is sometimes decades old.
