To make this even more sad, consider that the Atari 2600 - probably the first real commercial gaming success story came out in 1977. That means a very large proportion of the gaming community are in their 50s
I’m not only tired, I want you damn kids to get off my lawn
30+ year old gamers trying to pull an all nighter: I’m tired, boss.
Nearly 50 here: I’ve had the urge to do an all-nighter for weeks now but I know I probably couldn’t pull it off and that I’d be a wreck for 36 hours afterward.
My previous job at a factory with rotating day/night shifts gave me an apparently lifelong case of sleep disorders. My “eight hours of uninterrupted sleep” is more or less indistinguishable from my “one coffee after pulling an all-nighter in Factorio”.
I think that is more a you problem. My work is the only thing holding me back from gaming all night.
Not a problem if you slept all day.
How late does it need to be to count as an all nighter? Because I havent gone all the way since I was 28.
