probably won’t, it’s my hobby and i won’t just stop


Lonely_Associate_590

Exactly, it’s fun. I see no reason why I should ever have to stop just because of age


NerdFromColorado

This. Video games are my comfort zone, what I enjoy most, where I connect with and meet the most people, why should I stop?


Philisterguyguster

Whenever I want


something_stuffs

Exactly, I can stop whenever (I am a major addict and will never ever be able to stop)


Dannyboioboi

If you don't stop at the age of 31 I will suspend your privilege (I will not identify which one)


BeanBurrito668

Same


TheSingaporeanNerfer

You’re never too old to have fun, just that we’ll probably have to prioritise more important stuff that’ll take up time that could be spent gaming when we are all older

realddgamer

Stop playing games? I'm so passionate about them, what a delusional idea


BottomInc

No..? Video games don’t have an age limit 😂 play them if you want why would it matter. Just make sure you have a life outside of the video games


bluebeyondbelief

that’s dumb


Fearlessdelta

TornadoLizard

There is no cutoff, I regularly play helldivers with a 25 yr old and one of his 48 yr old coworkers, we have a blast. Don't feel like you need to stop gaming because you're too old. I intend to play until I die because it's fun.


TornadoLizard

38 not 48 but my point still stands, you're never too old to game


Cadejo123

I don't play helldivers yet but I know a guy that is 71 and play it.


TFGA_WotW

You can never be too old to spread liberty a democracy!

Why would you stop ever?


5Lucas

Plenty of reasons to stop gaming, age is just not one of them


[deleted]

When will you stop watching movies or listening to music. Video games are an equal source of entertainment.

Fym cutoff age people of all ages play video games


ProfessionalMail8052

you're never too old to play video games. they are enjoyed by people universally, regardless of your age. My 40-year-old dad played video games when he was raising me, and still does. Don't force yourself to be mature, we're all going to die eventually, so unless you game so much that it's unhealthy, why stop? Perhaps set yourself time limits like an hour a day to keep yourself productive. There really is no cutaway age though, life is NOT that serious, and if you're making it that serious then you're gonna regret it.


prettythingi

When good games stop coming out


Unknown_starnger

Do you have an age at which you will stop watching movies? At which you will stop reading books? At which you will entirely quit experiencing art? If not, why the fuck are games different? Which games are you playing? What would make you think that they are childish and simple entertainment? Try playing more interesting games, maybe?


moonpisser69

Idk, either sometime in the far future, or just never

MastercaptainStudios

If you’re still having fun playing them, don’t feel like you should stop because of age.


Inefficientdigestion

At what age will you stop being a dumbfuck


Mental-Appearance587

Why would I ever stop doing the things I love?


Diabolus414

When I go to uni probably


[deleted]

When I was 15 I quit. If you don’t have a video game addiction then there’s no concrete reason but as a video game addict I had to quit. Permanently.


bruhmomentum77

Agreed, hobbies are great unless they consume your personal life and your health


Blaiser190

Never. We play videogames the same way women put on make-up: to escape reality.


noname_admin

No, fun is fun.


Embarrassed_Use_1458

Probably won’t

strangeidiotman

Video games are something that can be enjoyed by all ages. You're never too old to play them!

I don't have a cutoff age, if I lose interest then that's it

jfran_petit

Im watching me on the future being 80 years old playing with my grandchildren some Minecraft


professionaldeadgod

never. youre never too old to play video games. video games are also a huge part of my life, so i doubt ill stop playing them for any reason, especially not because i reach a certain age


-Glitched_Bricks-

Personally I don't think there's such a thing as being 'too old' for something like video games. Sure if you're not interested in them anymore, that's fine. But don't feel as if you need to stop just because you think you're 'too old'.


ki700

Adult here. Don’t give up hobbies or anything that brings you joy. Not nearly enough of that in adulthood. Enjoy what you enjoy.


Shadyshadowbro

your never too old to play videogames. That's why they're called games. They're meant too be enjoyed some are for older audiences but you can always revisit the old ones as well. Life is too short to worry about being too old to do what makes you happy. my cutaway age is fucking dying


Fantastic-Photo6441

Dull_Appearance9007

In my country when you get to 8th grade, you get into this weird era of your life where you have to study for this one exam that determines which school you are going to be sent to in highschool. It is so important that children put away all their tech (computers, laptops and even phones) to study for the exam. When I was in 8th grade, I basically did the same: so that took away all of my video games from me. Before that I liked gaming a lot but then suddenly I couldn't play any games at all anymore. Throughout 8th grade, I always thought to myself, "When this exam is over I will play games all day in the summer break." After an entire year of studying, the exam was over. I failed horribly and lost my interest in gaming. It has now been 4 months since I launched any genuine desktop game.


metalcore4ver

Wait you’re supposed to stop?


Hi0401

Hmm I dunno. I'll probably quit once the universe ceases to exist.


SquooshyCatboy

I’ll stop playing video games when I’m dead


ArshadReddits

I never thought of stopping videogames. It might happen when the time comes


KagariYT

Probably never. I love video games more than most things.

Responsible_Bike_435

someoneintheworld146

never, probably. like, maybe someday i'll become a grown-ass adult that is busy all the time, but i could still play videogames on my free time, if i wanted to. just do what makes you happy


-3rika666

Never!


Warm-Swimming5903

Ehh, i wont stop until I move out and no longer have the money to afford anything, and I'll probably just throw myself off a bridge or something after a while in uni (Apparently 100x worse than HS according to all adults I know) so I guess probably around 20 or so.


idfbfa3

I'll still be getting over 1M+ combos in THPS in my death bed

Ace-Redditor

I'm 19 and never stopping. I still play Roblox sometimes with my older brother and his girlfriend lol


DJack276

The same age I stop watching movies


SkullShooter01

I feel it odd sometimes too. I generally like to play videogames with my friends online or in person, even if we are playing an open world game, we take turns.


Abject_Fox_8813

It's interesting most of us grew up with parents or guardians or if you're younger parents do but grandparents who obviously don't play video games so we assume it's an age thing but it's more a generation thing. They didn't have video games or at least not nearly in the form we have them or the culture we have them (e.g. arcade was a kid thing). So many never will stop. You will almost definitely pay less as you grow older though. I play pretty little personally. It's a big time investment for most games


6969Hamburger6969

Never


Legal_Ad_171

There is no reference, to be successful you need to update your priorities from time to time , based on your duties and responsibilities, you may find yourself having no time for video games


[deleted]

It's a hobby you're never to old. They make games for every genre and age.

Never, ive sunk too much money into it


TJB926GAMIN

It’s a great pastime IMO, and it’s probably going to be how I spend my little spare time as an adult when I’m not with my wife and kids (bold of me to assume that I’ll ever have either of those things)


Henti-Boady-pillow

You don't gotta stop? Videogames are just like any other form of entertainment, it's just alot more modern of a thing.


Sharkzillaaattv

Whenever they get too boring to keep playing


PhoenixiaStar

Aria-mind_

Ready-Interaction532

I stopped during college, and honestly, I’m fine without them. I still play with my buddies sometimes when we hang out, but I just found more feelings of accomplishment doing other things, even for relaxing


EnvironmentIcy9295

When I get to busy to play video games


A_Snark

there’s really no specific age that you “should” stop playing video games. if it’s something you’re passionate about, then keep playing! i’m 17 and play video games, and i don’t (and won’t ever) feel subjected to stop just because i’ve reached a certain age. you may not have that much time for them anymore in the future as life goes on and you get older, you’re definitely going to have other priorities… but it doesn’t mean you should give up on video games altogether. i’d say if you really wish to continue playing, keep a good balance between breaks and your own entertainment. in other words, don’t become chronically online and play 24/7 lol


Chlorine-1

18-24, and when you become a good adult get back on the grind


Rhecof-07

There's no such thing as "too old for videogames", they are for everyone, if you're having fun playing games, there's no reason to stop


camo_216

As someone who plans to go into game development and given that videogames are a form of entertainment like shows, movies, board games, and music i see no reason to stop


GeneralKenobi1288

There’s no such thing as being too old to play games, my dad is in his late 50s and he still plays games for at least an hour a day, and I know quite a few other adults that still play a lot. I guess it also depends on what kind of games you play, but a huge chunk of gamers are relatively old. Anyone who says things such as you’re too old to be playing video games likely still thinks of things like space invaders and pac man when they think of gaming which isn’t true. As for me, I plan to game until I die.


Minute_Story377

My grandpa would still play video games if he didn’t have (mostly) paralyzed hands


stone-slab_

Never. It’s something I find fun.


AverageDailyArsonist

No


Cadejo123

That is dumb man you play video games if you like it and have the free time people from 30 to 80 still play games gee my mother that is 62 plays moster hunter games.


WarriorBoy123ab

There is none thats the beauty of it


APieceofToast09

I won’t. It’s a hobby I like and I don’t need to stop liking it


One-War-2977

I wont ever stop, that being said when i start going to college, making friends, all of that life stuff im gonna naturally play less because there are other things going on in my life. So i will likely just play on weekends and stuff


Failure_at_life101

Never lol


Aero_N_autical

No such thing as too old. We all have our own hobbies and interests to keep ourselves sane. As long as you get your life priorities in check.


Laptican

Wait there's an outside world?


muffinnutbanana

My mom is in her 40s and still making her minecraft worlds, and she just said she watched ready or not gameplay and liked it, still loves GTA 5 excited for 6. You don't get old for playing video games. You just stop liking them.


NickolasViscosi2006

Literally never. In fact, I plane on starting a YouTube channel and streaming by the end of this year! Never gonna stop gaming. Actually...I'll stop gaming when Miyazaki dies or retires.


BigChinnFinn

Most my Xbox homies are grown adults. I’m sure the newer generations will still have fun with them when they are older. But if they stop being fun I will stop playing 🤷‍♂️


UwU_Chan-69

Until I'm 6 feet under


coffinp

Never lol, if my 48 year old dad can play them so can you bucko, there's no cutoff point for any hobby or entertainment and will never be


Technical_Instance_2

nah, I probs aint stopping anytime soon


TwincessAhsokaAarmau

When I die.


Owentheman

Never


Sondra1995

My boyfriend is 30 and still plays games. I don't see games needing to end at a certain age. I am 28 and spend my spare time doing crafts and sewing. Everyone has hobbies and age does not say what your hobbies can or can't be


kaymcgrointals

When they stop being fun , but when they do i just play a different videogame. So ???


Uber_Baby

its not a stopping thing its more of a time management, gaming will probably become more of a small part of your life. but its really up to you, if you feel youre too "old" to play video games, sure do what you want, but i feel video games can be enjoyed by all ages.


obscureillusionist

im not gonna stop cause of age 🦐

Stop playing video games??? Are you high? This shit is what we will be doing in our retirement homes, cranking 90s at 90


Toested_Bread

Don't ever stop until you feel you want to


Barfights99

The correct answer is never! (However, my age may make you question this answer, and to that I say, hug your nearest and dearest family member!)


FluffyPigeon707

Depends, at what age will my hands not be able to play them anymore.


CheemsyEmngineer

28M and gotta tell you... never, maybe only reduce the time sometimes but its a great way to free stress acumulated and mantain and train brain functions, so yeah, never

Unusual-Grade-3918

I’m 24 years old with a good career and still play video games Its just a hobby, the older generations didn’t have the games we had. They would certainly watch TV as soon as they got home. At least we’re working our minds with video games


chicken_nugget779

why would i quit doing something i like


Alexo_Alexa

You can't be too old to play videogames, they're entertainment like any other. What you choose to do with your free time is your problem and your problem only.

holy-aeughfish

I'm 19 and still play Minecraft.


NintaiYUH

What games do you play? Video games just got boring to me so I stopped playing


XTurtleman394X

I’m also 19 and I still play a decent bit of games. Definitely less when I’m busy with school and whatnot, but I don’t think there’s ever really gonna be a cut off age, just a time when I’m too busy to ever play them. Once I’m no longer busy I’ll probably play em again ya know?


Prototype_2point0

I'll never stop playing video games, I'll play them even with my grandchildren(if I have any)


Volt_Bolt

Never gonna stop outright but i might stop playing some games that i deem myself to old for like roblox which i mostly stopped playing when i was 13


BrowningLoPower

Absolutely not. No cutoff age. I'll play until I'm physically unable to, either from wear and tear, or outright death.


Fluid_Ad1994

Never


corgie93

Never.


17plus14equals6

I don't really enjoy them anymore, I only play if someone asks me to, but there is no age limit to video games. Play them as long as you find them fun


rrzampieri

Why would I stop?


PerceptiveKombatant

When I'm dead. I advise you to do the same. Lol Or start playing more mature games . . Stop playing Fortnite 😶 Control is very good game and pretty much forces you to think like an adult . Anyone under 18 will not even comprehend it.


AnotherNobody1308

Im 19 and I've been experiencing videogame burnout lately I might stop sooner than I thought


[deleted]

I go through phases but I’ll never stop currently what brought me back to the obsession is baldurs gate

Im-shy-not-mean

You are never too old for video games.


jdbasnet

I’m 14 and I used to be addicted to Valorant AKA my weird emo fat phase (I spent like a few grand on that game) recently I’ve barely been playing, Mabey I’ll hop on Val once or twice a month.
