I play video games past the age of 30

not really.

I wanted to get back into them but something in me wont let me. It's kinda sad actually as I used to love videogames.
 
I have a steam account and play more now than 5 years ago.
Instead of watching TV I play some games, not child games though.
Games like Vempire Bloodlines or Crusader Kings 2...
Nothing wrong with that.
 
From time to time yes.

Now I'm back to work so no videogames during the week. Maybe a little bit on the weekend because of the lockdowns and not being able to do much else.
 
No, have small children. Will hopefully get back into it as they grow older.
 
Yes, I am 32 and live alone. I stopped for a while as it wasn't really constructive, but a bunch of mates who were barely even gamers before have all jumped on the latest Call of duty, we all get drunk / stoned and have a laugh, great cyber times.
 
I went through a few spurts lasting a few years where i stopped playing them.

I inherited an xbox one last year,and now i started up again,but im pretty busy and dont play that often. Doom eternal did get some serious playtime,as it hit at the same time as covid,and also the game is a tad GOAT-ish in its entertainment value and violence.
 
I had to ween myself off of it in 2010 so I could focus on college classes. Last 3 games I played were God of War 3, Imfamous, and Dynasty Warriors 7.

I have more free time but I'm reluctant to get back into it for two reason:
1. Its a slippery slope. It'll draw you in and I'll get addicted.
2. Too damn complicated now. With all the DLCs and update stuff. Its a different ball game now.
 
I just got off of cod and I’ve been playing a lot since I’m on vacation, but it’s a shame that I can’t even play ps4 without them shoving politics down my throat.
 
I got a PS4 in 2014, but games kinda sucked availability wise. I played assassins creed the pirate version and madden and it was taking up too much time... after few months, I gave it to a nephew.

With the new Madden out kinda want to.,. But don’t have the interest & feel it sucks up to much attention/time.
Favorite game was the Elder Scrolls Oblivion on PS3 though.

Starcraft was the fucking shit back in the day. Back when World of Warcraft wasn't even popular yet.

Yeah I got Starcraft for Christmas when I was 12, it was GOAT RTS at the time.

Finally got round to playing Starcraft 2 recently during lockdown, just working my way through the campaign.
 
I did stop playing for a few years in my mid 20s but then I bought a gaming PC in 2014 when I was really into the idea of VR, got the Oculus DK2 at the time.

Then I ended up getting into Steam.

Nowadays I sometimes play an hour before bed or sometimes longer if my girlfriends doing a night shift. Mostly just strategy games, although the Halo Collection is free on the PC Gamepass so I've been playing through Halo Reach again.
 
Yeah, been playing since I was 4 and don't see myself ever stopping. In fact I just got a few new games so I'm looking forward to getting home from work and playing.

The type of games I play has changes a bit. Used to love jrpgs but just don't have the patience and hate the weeb aesthetic.

So I've drifted more towards turn based strategy with roguelike elements.
