I got a Deck cuz I’m in my 30s. Best thing ever to relax with.
I have systems older than grandpa!
Lets sit down and discuss what constitutes a rogue-like
Not the story on how beating Radahn was your own personal Vietnam War again, grandpa! We definitely all believe you beat him on your 3rd try. Now go back to bed.
I’ve got unplayed games older than you!
Yall GOTTA stop pretending 30 is old
ive only been an adult on my own for like 5 years, relax
As I said in another thread, I’m 37, I’m not old, I’m lower middle age. I make noise sitting down but I don’t make noise putting my feet up yet.
Damn! Ease off on the aging there, gramps. I’m 50 and I can still touch my toes without groaning! The only “old person noises” I make are exclusively of the “get off my lawn you whippersnapper” type. ;-P
(And I’ve been gaming since Pong)
meh i don’t have s future worth staying young for. my main goal is to die relatively quickly instead of rotting alive for years like my grandparents did.
my first video game was Freddy’s Rescue Roundup on MS-DOS. It was a bit like Lode Runner.
I’ll be 37 soon, I was doing well untill my motorcycle accident. Even in full gear a lot of stuff broke that shit aged me fast. That being said my best friend is 22 and I can still beat his ass at most games.
I turned 37 recently, and fortunately both of my motorcycle accidents were relatively minor lowsides at ~20mph so I think most of me is 37 and my right knee is 41 years old.
Some lady on a phone basically ran me off the road and fled the scene. 4 ribs broken, fractured scapula, and a partial lung collapse along with soft tissue damage all on the right side. Oh and my left thumb broke and needed surgery. Kept the helmet though, did it’s job admirably.
Oof, every piece of that is a deep level of suck. I’m sorry that happened to you. Except for the helmet keeping your brains in, that’s a good thing.
I’m 38 and I’m extremely anxious about what to expect from adulthood in two years.
Same. I’m 35 and I’ve only been independent for 5 years as well. This is the new norm. Adulting is expensive. 30 isn’t old; you’re just starting your life.
exactly
i got married last year
im literally a level 1 husband.
Im a level 32 human but only a level 6 Adult, really. I moved out at 22 but spent the first 3 years partying and barely making rent
I think 25 was the year i started actually trying to do a good job at life, so im still pretty new at it
I mean this purely as an observation, but: almost certainly literal child detected
I’m in my mid 30s, and the people in my extended social circle around my age that don’t fire up a game at least once or twice a week are few and far between, even including the harried, busy, regular not-yet-grand parents, haha
Quick edit: imo, the ones not playing video games at my age (again, in my area) are generally the ones who seem the least like they have their shit together. It’s weird but it’s a thing I’ve noticed
I mean, if they are 30 and haven’t adapted to how society is yet, its not surprising they havent got their shit together. We grew up alongside modern tech growing up, if you’ve been avoiding technology till now, its exceedingly hard to function in our current society
Lol people can be so weird.
I have 70 year old family/coworkers who are like “hey 70 isn’t old!”
And then there’s Lemmy “hey 18 year olds, what’s it like to be minutes from death?”
I feel old playing TF2 these days. I still don’t know what “skibidi” means.
Hey fellow fossil! I just learned it means evil lol
Apparently there’s a show “skibidi toilet” where they’re just shitty people or something.
43 and on the daily, whether PC, Steam Deck, or one of the kid’s consoles.
I don’t know anyone my cohort who doesn’t.
I know an 84 year old man that has played WoW since vanilla.
Im 60 and been gaming since Wolfenstein 3D.
Look, it’s a cheaper hobby than drinking, or outfitting my vehicle. I don’t have the time to retreat to a fishing hole and there’s no hunting nearby.
Yes I play video game, geez.
Turning 50 this year. Still balling. Love a drink when I play. The combo remains cheaper than going to dinner
People act like video games are some niche hobby, while it’s a bigger industry than movies and music combined. And it’s not even close.
Yeah it was bonkers learning that video games are no longer niche and are now cool
Don’t tell me we have lost control!!
I’m creeping up on 50. I finished Elden Ring a little while back.
Congrats! Have you tried the DLC yet?
