          Pretty sad. I guess this is why there’s a genocide going on.

          If people would spend that time doing something productive, the world would be a better place.

            Oh? Would getting shot in the head protesing in Israel be more productive? I donno about you, but I work my ass off and would love to take some time at the end of the day with a game or movie. Unfortunately, I’m not rich enough to stop a genocide half a world away.

              You clearly don’t know the power you have.

        My mom is in her late 70s, still working and flying around for gigs, and she always has her Switch and Breath of the Wild or TOKT with her on flights.

        Gaming transcends any age.

        Yes this. So many people don’t know that in all 50 states it actually becomes illegal to have fun after your 25th birthday.

        that’s a little old to be playing with interactive entertainment which engages your strategic thinking and problem solving skills, passively consume some content like a grown adult instead
