It's such a fucking kid move to not have enough imagination to understand adults needs recreation too.

Do you think you'll stop gaming in, like 20 years when you're 30?

"Where are the old gamers?" Yo! "The thirty year old gamers?" Never mind.

39 here and still playing. The worst part is STILL having a huge backlog of steam games to work through.

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

60 seems like a better cutoff. Now get out of my yard

So, how many more generations before people finally escape Nintendo's crafted stereotype that games are for young boys? Never? Fantastic. I'll try not to think about how I'll magically be too old for games in 7 months.

34 here, reporting for duty

I know people in their 50s who still game lmao calling 30 old

My choice of a retirement home will be dictated by which one offers high-speed internet service.

30... That's funny. I'm 50+ and clap asses hard in Tarkov PvP.

I grew up playing video games in the 80’s - of course I still play video games even though I turned 50 this year.

I swear the younger generations forget gaming has been around for a LONG time long before they were born, also that people don’t change what they enjoy doing just because they get older…..

I got a Deck cuz I'm in my 30s. Best thing ever to relax with.

I don't know anyone my cohort who doesn't.

I'm also developing them, with the first one hopefully (somewhat) finished by September

I'm 38 and never plan to stop. Of course, I met my wife through World of Warcraft, and we game together most nights. My parents still play games in their mid 60s, too. I remember a kid mocking my dad for gaming at 40 when I was a kid. I imagine that guy is doing the same thing now.

48, just been gaming with my 15 year old. Love it, wouldn't be without it!

You can have my game controller when you pry it from my cold, dead hands. And I'm not alone. We are many. We are legion.

You've heard of dementia villages that mimic old city neighborhoods? Gen-X is gonna need that to look like a mall. A video arcade would make sure over half of them never try to leave^1^. We're not done gaming, not by a longshot.

^1^ - The rest are going to tend to cluster up in the food court or Tower Records.

I'm 28 and I'm a young-un in my Elder Scrolls Online guild lol

I'm creeping up on 50. I finished Elden Ring a little while back.

Late 60's here and my first game was technically Pong. First one I played on my own PC was hunt the wumpus

if 30s is grandpa then what the fuck am I.

My back and knees hurt just thinking about this.

Lets sit down and discuss what constitutes a rogue-like

I have systems older than grandpa!

37 Guilty as charged

Every time I visit my dad he's still playing Empire Deluxe
