bearly anyone who's a boomer is playing these games or probs has ever played them short of seeing their kids boot it up. if anything these would be gen x shooters. People don't seem to even know wtf a boomer is. boomer for gen z seems to = anyone over 40 lmao.
The most Gen X move is to get overlooked, so this feels right to me.
We'll just be over here in the corner. If anyone needs us, don't.
I claim gen x. I'm outside the range, but I have more in common with that gen than either millennials (my actual gen) or boomers (what everyone calls me). I mostly listen to classic rock (late 70s and 80s), still whine about removed MtG rules from the 90s, and my first video game systems were the Atari and NES.
So if it's okay I'll just sit next to you. We don't need to talk or anything though, I won't be a bother.
In the spotlight. Losing our religion.
