Here I am, 40yo father and a husband that identifies as a gamer

Even most people in the 50-64 years range play videogames: https://www.techopedia.com/video-game-statistics

My literal grandparents play video games. They were in their 70s. In fact, they were the ones who taught ME how to play, and my mother (who is not a gamer) remembers them always having the latest console when they were growing up.

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

54. Passed a Linux exam by installing Doom and getting it running with audio.

I'm 35 and my dad turns 68 this year. He had a stroke about 13 years ago that narrowly missed killing him and paralyzed half of his body (he recovered some use of his leg, but his right hand just hangs out).

He had to give up a lot of things, but I made sure gaming wasn't one of them. He plays with a foot pedal and a mouse, and still loves it.

He plays all of the fallout games on a loop, has a thousand hours on the Bioshock franchise, and we play Co-op shooters together sometimes. He has a bunch of other games, but he's super picky lol.

Old-ass gamers unite!

37 here. Recently bought a Lenovo Legion Go so I can game on the go. Currently enjoying Darkest Dungeon 2, among others.

This comment section has single handedly made me think Lemmy is a Facebook alternative

Everyone I know turned 30 and immediately turned to dust from their advanced age. So sad. Also, really messy.

Original video gamers are like 75. It’s weird to assume that most won’t at least occasionally play.

I’m 48 and play daily. Husband is 43 and has like 2k hours in Baldurs Gate.

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

40 here. Minecraft is my main but I play others too, like Horizon 5, balders gate 3, stardew valley (mad respect for the Dev), and a few others. I gave up cod after warzone came out.

37 and sitting on my Mass Effect 3 run number…I can’t remember actually. Maybe I should go back to the Elden Ring DLC.

Nearly 60 and a grandma.

I think I find more people in the 28-45 age range that are gamers, than I do people younger that consider themselves such.

34 here, reporting for duty

I'm only barely in my 30s but yeah! Hopefully going back to college next year to finish getting a game dev degree too

37 Guilty as charged

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

61 in about 3 weeks. I'm older than Pong, and I game every day.

Forty-nite playa!

41 here. PC master race gamer 4 lyf.

30’s?? That’s rookie numbers, I’m nearing my 50’s.
