!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.

I should not need to explain this one.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

If anything, I expect to enjoy them MORE once I can share the interest with my kids (lemmy.world)

Mid-30s here, fortnite is fun, you should try it

Or what if they prefer things other than playing video games? My buddy's sons really aren't into video games and he's one of those dudes who budgets to buy new games.

They probably will, but I'll enjoy that they're enjoying them. I probably spent a long time on some dumb games when I was a kid too.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That is a very healthy way of thinking (though lets discuss again when they play Justin Bieber, romantic adventures themed VR game with tons of buyable accessories and asks you money to buy virtual Justin Bieber signed sneakers to impress some virtual girls)

Oh god. TIL I have a limit.

Let them play them! My son has changed games many times. Sometimes he gets me into something I didn't like at first but I end up liking because we game together.

Politely but firmly introduce them to better ones :)
