I am getting old.

[Tiberius]

I am getting old.

I am 30 years of age. I am a gamer pretty much since I am 6 years old and have played my first combat game at like 3 or 4 on my fathers lap (Armoured fist).

I was always able to escape real life by diving into a fantasy world such as World of Warcraft, Diablo, Sacred, Rainbow Six or other video game worlds.

NOW the older I get, the less I feel capable to focus on video games, my attention span seems shorer, I get bored quicker and for obvious reasons I can't take video games seriously anymore as real world problems are messing with my mind while playing.

I still try to play a lot, but I often find myself quitting games after an hour, trying another game or just ending up on YouTube doing other stuff.

I also physically can't sit this long anymore as my back and my a... start to hurt.

I was hoping to spend most of my day gaming one day when I retire, but if I already have problems at the age of 30 to fully commit to video games as I did in younger days, then I don't see that happening at all.

Its a shame video games aren't the same thing for me anymore and its a shame 95% of released video games aren't even my cup of tea anymore. Enjoy gaming while u guys can !

okay...

There's a rising trend among young men to give up. I'm not sure where it came from, but 30 is when men are supposed to hit their stride and really come into their own.

I hope more young men keep trying to pull themselves back up and lock in

Happens to the best of us

I'm not feeling it just yet. I suppose some people simply age slower than others.

i won't spend the hours i spent when i was 18 and 20 but you gotta feel it too though, if you press it it won't be the same tbh
some nights are game nights, 2-3 hours tops on various games, depends on the mood

What's the deal with these level 0, 1 word name accounts going around necroing old threads? What are they getting out of doing this? Seen it a few times now since yesterday, "jeff," "egg," and now "water" just necroing for no reason. What's the point of it?

It's not an uncommon thing. I'm in my mid 30s and definitely have frequent aches & pains that I didn't have 10 years ago. Back then I could work all day & party all night, I wouldn't want to do that now - I'd rather relax with the wife and go to bed after a busy/long day. I get tired more easily now and just don't want to be bothered.

Some folks here rather pretend like it's impossible or just a mindset or they grossly exaggerate what's being said but ultimately, in reality, the 30s is the age that people usually report to their doctors/healthcare providers/etc. that they're beginning to see & feel the signs & effects of aging. The funny thing is that it's just part of life, no one is saying they're decrepit and dying and "giving up" just because they hit their 30s, just that they're starting to see & feel the signs of aging, which is 100% natural and is not some rare phenomenon.

If you and some others can truly say that nothing has changed for you between your 20s and 30s and that you don't feel any different and don't feel like you're getting older, that's truly great for you & them and hopefully it'll stay that way for you (and them) for as long as possible.

25 old is the prime for human body, after it is slow decline before to going faster, 30 old is the soft wall, is rare athlete continue to stay best after their 30 years old, so 30 you still good shape, but you also feel sometime it is just harder than when you were kid, teen and in your twenty

Perhaps but I'm not trying to suggest anything so conspiratorial, just genuinely curious what they're getting out of it/what's the point of it.

There's nothing conspiratorial. It's actually pretty normal and silly.

Several years ago after Steam updated things and introduced more social focused things, there was a community badge you could earn and one part of it was to post on the forums. Obviously, this caused people who don't use the forums to post useless, one word answers. So Valve removed that requirement.

Unfortunately there's tons of outdated guides out there that are still misadvising this.

So no conspiracy, just stupidity.

You aren't old until you walk into a room and forget why you went in there, then start talking to yourself about why you went in there.

This thread didn't get a chance to be too old before it got locked though. Shame. Necromancers are such foul creatures.
