7 Ways Videogames Are Totally Different Now You're An Adult

[@keithhaymond4143]

Rob - this is one of the most enjoyable and relate-able Friday Features you've ever done, and your writing is always superb! Well done.

[@CoconutChriss]

Totally agree. This was really well made.

[@sunless]

Yup that's my favourite KZbin video since months probably

[@roshanpaul1184]

Why did you hyphenate relatable, you psycho?

10 am to 10 pm gaming sessions? Get your facts right: 10 pm to 10 am gaming sessions 😉😂

[@PlayStationAccess]

You are right of course -Rob

[@kamaldr]

TheFrozenFire 10 am to 10 am mate

[@garrec3]

10 AM - 10 AM - 10 AM (the next day) - 11 AM (the same day) -> fall asleep during the middle of your game, waking up to see your playtime 10 hours longer than when you fell asleep -> reload last auto-save, -> 10 AM - 10 AM. :)

When you grow up, you realise- *Single player games are love,* *Single player games are life.*

[@kingsleycy3450]

When you have a 9-6, you just can't get good at multiplayer with what precious free time you have. Your reflex is slower, you are more tired and you don't know the map as well as the little ones. Thank God I got out of multiplayer while I still have my dignity.

[@toongrowner1]

when you grow up? Even as a kid I preffered single player games. XP

[@ElaborateTiger]

There's something I find almost intimidating about multiplayer only games. I don't like being someone's cannon fodder while I try and figure out how to play the game. Being able to practice on AI/bots is a feature I appreciate a lot.

[@DILLIGAFgaming-c8t]

Always been a single player person, but over the 20 years I've been playing video games I've come to hate multiayer more as tine progressed.

Make sure (if you haven't already) to get into Dungeons and Dragons! You and your friends only have free time to play it now! Oh woe is me, I wish I'd got into it when I was 14... And yes, everything Rob has just said is so ridiculously true.

[@shaladekandara5292]

@@chriswood1821 yeah, its so hard getting a D&D group to have regular sessions when you and all your friends are in your mid 30s, maybe once a month get a day that everyone is available and then someone always has something come up at the last minute.

[@NoNameJustWords]

There are a few games that are exceptions, such as all the Jack Box games, and that Cheffing game that is in the PS Store highlight video of August.

[@prettygoodfood9512]

I sometimes feel that Games and I have matured together...well games have matured and I've gotten older.

[@travim4314]

I feel the same. I'm in my mid-thirties. Video games have been a part of my life since my childhood Nintendo/arcade days. I've played most systems and mastered every gaming genre at some point in my life. Now they're my go to option to relax and disappear in fantasy land for a few hours. I doubt I'll ever out grow them.

[@ParanoimiaUK]

I'm 47 and this year is my 40th gaming anniversary. My first taste of gaming was my cousin's Atari. My first actual console was an Acetronic MPU-1000. I can relate to almost everything in this video.

Acetronic? I had an Acetronic! It was my family's first console and I've had a console or computer (ZX Spectrum) ever since. I don't remember the full name of it though - when talking about it, I just call it the budget Atari {:o)

[@DanFarrell98]

I’m 19 so I’m kind of at the awkward stage of life between youth and adulthood, so this video made me feel both grateful and depressed

[@ignisspiritustenebris7137]

[@austinbeatty6832]

25 married. A son. Still game, just late at night, with little sleep. Enjoying family and life, still gaming. Good note though is my wife is a gamer too. So me playing a game in the day time abit does not bother her. Definatly not playing all day right now anymore when I'm not working but time will open up again more when my son is older and gaming with me. Don't worry you'll find the time if it's important. Just like with all things in life.

And to think God of War, Red Dead, Spiderman, Ghost of Tsushima, Detroit Become Human and Days Gone are coming out soon... 😬

[@SuperArppis]

Good, Witcher 3 is better than any of those.

[@Shuru10]

Also, I miss the days when I would actually WAIT until I finished a game to buy another one. Now it's like the anime race against time where you play the games as quick as you can to stay topical on discussions and fanart.

[@BlueHero45]

Ya, that's thanks to larger access to information for me. As a kid, I never even heard of most games till I spotted them on a shelf at the video game store, or got a glimpse at a magazine in the supermarket while my mom shopped.

[@christophersavignon4191]

Anime race? I don't watch an anime before it's a complete season. I'd rather wait three months for a full binge than wait two weeks between every 17-minute bite of story. But then again, I don't discuss anime much either. There's too many people who know far too little or far too much in those discussions. I've even maintained my "monogamy", although there are more games I don't care to finish these days. As a kid, the lack of alternatives makes you play every last bit, even if it isn't that good...

[@overlordalfredo]

I heavily disagree with No. 4! I have some games I stopped playing because I got stuck somewhere and could not finish them at their time (e.g. Dark Chronicles, Crash Bandicoot 2, Night Shade...) *BUT occasionally a few years later (sometimes 15 years later!) I dig up the old titles and manage to magically beat them - Finally!* Seriously, I have a few games I just was not good enough as a Kid/Teen and I needed to get past the magic age of 30 to finally beat them!

But wait, now I am on a fixed income and can hardly keep up with the games, let alone the hardware wars. And don't even begin to compare my reaction time now to even 10 years ago (I've just turned 60), I've become a human sloth. But lots of video watching, thanks Playstation Access. :D

[@mannyjeanpierre4062]

Kirk what type of games do you play? I always wonder if I'll be gaming post retirement and how it'll be

[@tarkus900]

Sorry for the delayed response, slow reader ;) I play single-player exclusively as my social issues only become extremely magnified in multiplayer environments. Currently devoured by all three latest Fallout games, Horizon 2 and Farming Simulator 17. Dullard be my name! Actually I used to roam quite a bit, so Fallout, and I have done some equipment operating, so Farming Simulator and Spintires: Mudrunners as well. Cheers and all I can say about later life is no matter what steps you may take, the path one winds up wandering may defy ones imagination completely. My own rigidity (and American brainwashing) have made enjoying the unknown future not as enjoyable a ride as it could be.

[@Crcvmbdfl]

i have always wonder what i could be playing at my 60s, currently 33. Nice to know your intel. Wondering if i will be able to cope with physically demanding VR games, recently a loved Beat Saber.

[@twisterduck1944]

I still put aside several hours a week because I treat it as my “alone time”, but the biggest change I have noticed is getting burnt out on games quicker which I find odd because I have less time to play them lol.

[@tokenblack7983]

Interesting I've noticed that too. It's not burnout but more like I don't want my precious gaming time to be only one game .Okay a few missions in batman a few levels in mega man 8 okay lets finally play Jill in RE2 a few races in Grid 2. You get the idea. The only game I can play for an hour plus is skyrim

[@Karlos86nfs]

Token Black I’ve been doing that same thing for the past 2 years. spreading my available time in different games and it made things worse I think because now I have a bunch half-way played games. Every time I’m going to play, I spend infinite deciding what to continue, and some games you even feel lost when you go back to. I have restarted Metal gear Rising like 4 times because I always forget the controls. I’m going back to one game at a time because at least I get to finish something before moving on

[@TheSanguineRaven]

I agree on Crash Bandicoot, I remember pre-teen me being absolutely excellent at platforming and completing every level with ease...now, more than a decade later, Crash Bandicoot caused me to scream into a pillow.

[@leescano13]

might be because the games physics were changed since they couldn't replicate the classic crash

Gemma could also be the case where the controller is different. PS1 controller is direction button, whereas PS4 is analog stick with too much SENSITIVITY! With different amount of pressure it can mean walking and running, not to mention precision jumping... urgh!!!

yes it's true but I don't think is games, it's us , I used to enjoy a lot of games when I was a kid, nowadays I'm lucky if I buy 3 games a year.

"Your granddad has a hat like that" cracked me up

[@HanabiraKage]

Probably just me, but I have no idea how I was able to handle grinding and sudden difficulty spikes when I was younger. Pokemon Sapphire: I had a Swampert by the third gym. That's at least 10 levels above anything the gym leader had, how the heck did I manage that? Digimon World 3: I don't recall having too much trouble against anything up till I got to Amaterasu server, but on a much later replay I was barely surviving fights in the Badlands and in certain underwater segments on my first visits there. Only thing I can think of is that I must have done a crapton of grinding, which brings me back to the question of how I managed it. I absolutely HATE level grinding now, and having to do a couple hours of grinding turns me off!

[@baditude41]

Seriously, Rob is correct...on all counts of being an adult. When I was young, teen through 20's, I was good at the Tekken series, Street Fighter 2 and 3, and a few others. Now, I can't even defend myself on Sleeping Dogs. SMH.

But the last year was catastrophic for me and I've changed a damn lot, these days I'm trying to walk back to how I was...

Llort Mc'Trolling energy drinks! I never got asked for ID for energy drinks and I've been drinking them since I was 12 although I've stopped now.

[@insertname8506]

What if you are a confused person who is an adult but people call him a kid for playing video games(me sigh)

[@toongrowner1]

Then it's not you to blame but the people who clearly have not a single bit understanding of video games and probably buy their kids games that are meant for adults and then complain about the sex and violence.... why again do we have these age-ratings? -_-

[@IsaandAli]

I’m 35 and I still game. To hell with everyone. Do what makes you happy

[@John-Ng]

Giancarlo R yeah, I'm 39 going 40 this year, and my wife calls me childish when I play PS4 during the weekend.

[@nahmean7045]

'The Legend of Dragoon'. I occasionally recall the memories I have of playing that game, but could never dig up the name. It has eluded me for 15 years. You have helped me in regaining a piece of the past. Thank you Rob.

[@darkwanderer1965]

I've gone and bought cigarettes for grandparents, alcohol for myself, and video games. You know what I've been Id'd for out of all of them? Video Games...

[@McMeatBag]

I can't imagine Rob being responsible for a child

[@HE360]

I don't have any kids and I basically own my own business. So, I work whenever I want to work. So, there have been days where if I am playing a game and I want to play more of it, I'd just take off that day and keep playing to my heart's content. And I'd get plenty of sleep too. See, I am enjoying my life NOW instead of waiting until I am 60 plus years old!

[@Cutiejuliya]

"What a lucky coil!"

[@alicedubois1348]

All of theses is completely true. I had my first born 4 years ago. I. Completely forgot about the ps4 until this nirning, when I THOUGHT it was only out for 2 years. Woops... My bad... It has been 4 years now. And parenting makes time fly like never before.

For me, Dark Cloud 2. Love that game ❤

[@jordanvladic7856]

When I first played Majoras Mask I had such a fun time running around Termina, meeting new characters and fighting new enemies that I didnt have time to notice how sad and lonely of a game it was. Nearing 30 now and having experienced my life all but fall apart at one point, I know EXACTLY how helpless Termina's residents feel, knowing that soon their world will come to an end and there's nothing they can do to stop it.

[@ArchAlaska]

Every good weekend starts with a "Friday Feature" :) nice work as always Rob

[@Hellsing7747]

Playing long video games like rpg games when you have a family and a job is very difficult . I barely have the time to finish a 20 hours game. That's why, I can only play one maybe two RPG game a year.

[@retrogamerdad9621]

Hellsing7747 I've taken to using You Tube let's plays for those. better than nothing

[@MrDovakiin]

Totally relate to the last point, i love the interactive story type games now because you can just sit back and take it in - no reflexes required

[@mikeb6410]

3:59 this is the truest thing ever

[@simonepagnotta5112]

Rob, there are only two options: either EVERY SINGLE PERSON you hang out with has never seen your Friday Features or you've slowly lost people to hang out with because of what you're constantly saying about family gatherings and social events, how much you loathe them and such. Then again, that might be your goal, so you get to have more time for games. I might actually follow suit. On another note, I think growing up doesn't necessarily mean we get bad at games. I remember getting murdered by the Phantom Heartless and that other dick in the sand in KH1, but then, playing the remake on PS3, I destroyed them on my first attempt - same thing with Sephiroth. Now, I'm not sure if it's because, for some reason, the remake was made easier than the original, in any case, that's what happened.

[@TheBigWhits]

[@TheRootko]

Akroma 349 tick tock 🕦

[@Agamemnon2]

Word. I will never have children or a family so I will get old and tired, but at least all my remaining time is mine.

[@charlieflint1161]

Akroma 349 Buuuuut, if you have kids, once they reach a certain age, you can spend some of your quality time with them playing video games. So two birds with one stone type of deal. You just gotta raise the kids right (teach them to love games like yourself).

[@JachAnen]

I don't either. Most of them still apply. I have no idea how someone can have a job, kid, marriage and still play videogames

[@aceofspades9503]

Jan Christoffersen The key is to have a significant other who is also a gamer. Then you can either play together, or you can schedule times to trade off. That being said- I don't have kids, and I have no idea how anyone who has kids has any time or money left.

[@AM-of4ml]

Got to be sonic for games im now shite at, used to be able to complete 1,2 and 3 without losing a life. Cant even get through one now.

[@nightsky2165]

2:59 him finishing the game within 4 days in his room was the lie in the 2 truths 1 lie video they did 🤔

[@Ireland1229]

My God, I could listen to Rob all day. So many things here apply to all the adult game players. Hell, even back in the day years ago as a youngster in my 20's I still managed to plough through games. It's a lot harder now, but there are days when I make a rule and say 'Ok I don't care if the sky falls down I'm playing this and this tonight etc'. I realised back in 2008 when I started playing mmo's seriously (the wonderful FFXI and later FFXIV, among others) that I had to stick other games on first or else nothing else would get played if I put FFXI or FFXIV on before them. Still ploughing through my library of games from my Atari 2600 all the way up to XBOX ONE, PS4, PC, etc. At the moment I'm currently in a fit of buying PS1 games to add to my collection, some of which I had literally not touched in years, and some that I wish would get the remake or remaster treatment, such as the incredible Vagrant Story. Anyway, time to stick on FFXIV and get some more quests done!

[@jaredv5692]

This video hit so close to home! First, thank you for bringing up Legend of Dragoon, the game that got me into RPGs. I remember replaying all the PS1 FF games. Now I rarely finish games. Part of it is games have changed a bit, and also I don't have as much time as I used to. It's very true that now I look for simpler games that don't require a lot of time to finish. Great video! 👍

[@joelmanu9780]

Thanks for that existential crisis!

[@starduster2829]

Am I really going to suck once I get older? How am I going to beat the Secret Boss in future games like Kingdom Hearts 8.32 HD Ultra Remix?

[@m2000x]

Legend of Dragoon. Hope Rob helps convince Playstation to make a Remake ❤️❤️❤️

[@michaelcosta4468]

Absolutely on point! I'd add 2 more things to this list: 1) I no longer get to admit freely that my hobby is video games, otherwise I'm perceived by my colleagues as lazy (even though no one judges anyone that way for saying they binge-watch netflix for hours). Finding others with whom I can discuss my love of games is like finding out who smokes in a state where it's illegal (which, of course, I don't do either...). 2) Video games are far less social for me now. Call me lame, but I'm not into playing with people online, especially strangers. I miss the days when playing games with friends was like playing a board game on the screen. I even miss taking my controller with me to a friend's house, or asking the same few friends to brings theirs so everyone else could play as well.

[@andymodeller965]

You are spot-on with No4. I've very recently treated myself to a PS4 and Crash Bandicoot trilogy - to re-live my youth of 20 years ago playing Crash on the PS1. This year I'll be 56. The first level had me really worried as to what was to come. Treasure your youthful mind and controller reaction time kids.

[@hotaru1231]

hey rob, im finally getting a ps4, its a collectors edition of the god of war, with runes all over the machine :D all these videos made me unable to resist the urge to join the ps4 team and experience some of the titles you speak of :D! woooooooooooooo edit: rob, you and your grandad are stylish as all heq with those hats ;)

[@aritradasgupta4461]

Curse I got a ps4 the last year and the exclusives more than make up for its existence. But even then,ps4 is just such a cool and handy device to have.I watch a lot of my netflix on it

[@tarkus900]

I haven't had a PS4 for years, but I always thoroughly enjoy the Access crew and content, and they make me yearn to get another.

Totally get all of these Rob! 33yrs old with 3 & 2 yr old boys. Time, responsibility, money all gone! I long for just a few days to escape in an rpg. When I can play after bedtime is a success I end up (sometimes unknowingly) playing into the early hours in case I will never get a chance again, thereby sacrificing precious sleep before the 5am wakeup and causing misery around me with my sleep deprived grumpy demeanour...but it was worth it for a few hours of escapism in a world like the Witcher etc.

[@trickshotcandy393]

Spot on Rob! Two weeks ago my 16 year old nephew was looking over my collection of games, and he told me I really had to play Skyrim. I told him I had to find the time to play it, I already have a heap of games I've not finished. He muttered something about yes, you work. Then he compounded matters a week later when he very sweetly bought me Dishonored. I still have to pick it up from the post office! The life of an adult... And yes, I do have the greatest nephew in the world.

[@jreneau6441]

I'm like you. I recently watched a God of War review after buying it....months late of course because I have a backlog because I don't have time to play these games. The review said at least 35 hours of gameplay..."35 HOURS OF GAMEPLAY!!! WHO HAS TIME FOR THAT?...I SURE DON'T. I DON'T HAVE THE LEAVE FROM WORK FOR 35 HOURS OF GAMEPLAY!!!. These game developers are something else..they are really something else" Now I'm compromising sleeping and eating so that I can beat this game and then get Assassin's Creed Origins to try to beat it before Red Dead Redemption 2 comes out in Oct. Good Luck to me!!!

[@alvinsimba734]

Assassins creed origins is way longer than god of war. Still playing origins since december 26. 2018 with over 120 hrs of gameplay which includes treasures in every cith so far and with 72 of 78 teleports unlocked here still playing and havent beat all the dlcs lol

Two years late to the party. Sadly, I didn't even get the chance to be good at video games because I was in my early thirties, married and with 3 young sons when I started! Tomb Raider original. Husband and I tag team played, I did exploring and puzzles, he tackled timed or difficult jumping etc. and when we both got stumped we looked up online walk throughs. In no time my youngest was beating me at Crash Team Racing and coaching me at Legends of Dragoon battle system, our middle boy was rushing us in Diablo 2 Expansion runs, and our oldest swapped Elder Scrolls unmarked locations, uniques and best builds. We still do & he is 30!
