I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin.
Back in the day, I had a geekcode which I'm not going to share with you.
418 I'm a teapot.
If I ever join chat on any games, kids always ask how old I am and guess something "really old" like 20. And I tell them, and they tell me I'm lying. There's a real feeling with young people that when you get older you can't still be playing games.
Well, that's what my parents and their generation told us when we were growing up in the 80's. That's definitely been proven to be a wrong assumption.
I will tell you that my skills decreased greatly moving into my 30s and then beyond, and nowadays I don't have as much energy to game, but I'm still interested in gaming. As a result, I watch Let's Plays of games at 2x speed as I'm winding down to get my story fix. I also still play a lot of simulation and management games I can casually pause and walk away from. Those are good ones for when my wife and I are just hanging out watching TV. But yeah, my usage of games has changed over the years in part because of skill, but more because of shifting priorities and what I choose to do with my focus time.

Ha same, as a 38 year old female it's always astonishing to the youths.
I used to pubg-mobile a lot. And the same thing would happen. I would get asked questions about my age. I started wanting to play with my peers lol

I like watching replays of ping mobile by some guy Called BuiBiu I find the game play intertwining especially since I don’t have a device to play with
A game you can walk away from when you need to - that's pretty much my criteria for anything that I'm going to play more than once a blue moon.
