My kid started playing Minecraft so naturally I joined her. Her imagination amazes me, I wish I could be as creative as she is.

50+. Play every chance I get. Don’t know why it would be surprising, other than Lemmy being an echo chamber of tech-minded younger people who forget my generation started out gaming with Atari and the like.

if 30s is grandpa then what the fuck am I.
My back and knees hurt just thinking about this.
for some reason people around 30 years old always call themselves old lol
Worm food?
Can confirm, am 44 and worm food. Lower back but no knee trouble, yet. Some ankle trouble from an injury at 33, my grandpa years.
44 and I have clocked about 40 hours in Final Fantasy XIV this week. When I get home from work, it's game time.

I'm currently playing Borderlands with my friend in the UK every Monday morning. In the past we have played borderlands 2, borderlands 3, tiny Tina's wonderland, Diablo 4, Grim Dawn, city off Heroes and many more.
right here!
Me and all of my friends
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.
Turning 40 on two months! Where my going grey bush gamers at? I got over 600 games in Steam alone and play like 10 of them! Who else?
Mah untouched steam library growns like my back!

Maybe OP will put this on a cake one year for me
I just opened final fantasy to myself and it's awesome. I'm 34
Man we sure are suckers for this Facebook level interaction bait.
I know people in their 50s who still game lmao calling 30 old
52 and currently playing Empyiron
That game looks awesome, I should check it out some time.
Sit awhile and listen. These old bones don't move as quickly as they used to! I used to be quite a threat in Mortal Kombat 4!
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.

Larn
My choice of a retirement home will be dictated by which one offers high-speed internet service.
I have a plan to develop a standalone wow pserver that's all set up with directions on how to do everything so my wife, kids, whoever can plop my dimentiated self in azeroth where I can't get lost.
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.

Tldr: nothing, it’s like the millennial word whomps
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.
My friend is like 34, still plays games. WoW, WoT, Terraria, Factorio, Minecraft, L4D, something else.
39 soon here 👀
