Yep. I've never left Counterstrike and with CS2 that came back, friends from when I played when I was in college have come back to play so we've been playing. Story wise, I could get into it but there just isn't enough time and what time you have you're going to sacrifice sleep.
It's all about getting old.
Yup, this is the real reason. When you're a kid/teenager, you don't realize just how much free time you have to spend on stuff like video games. Then you become an adult and have way more responsibilities, and suddenly video games just aren't as appealing as a time sink as they used to be.
Lol I'm in my 40s, and play with guys same age as me up to guys in their 60s. Just because you don't have the time, doesn't mean all adults don't.
That might not be the flex you think it is...
What flex? I'm simply stating that he doesn't speak for all adults. Once my kids were old enough to hold a controller, I got them into gaming. All 3 are teenagers now, and I love gaming with them. One of the few hobbies where age really doesn't matter.
