I met a grown adult the other week that told me she liked playing Fortnite

So what? I’m not a fan of Fortnite as well, but let people enjoy what they want.

Right, so why downvote me and not this insipid image macro?

Lemmy often assumes the worst about comments. I think people interpreted* your comment as “can you imagine this woman I know enjoys this kiddy game?!”. While you really meant, I think, “some adults like to play Fortnite, too, actually”.

Correct me if I’m wrong.

I join my boomer squad nearly every night. I’m the youngest at age 43. We win 1 in every 4 games, so that’s not awful. Depending on the mood we w-key or we just have fun and giggles.

It is a very well made game with fun mechanics and plenty of content.

Game is game. Play whatever brings you joy. Except FIFA, of course.

Maybe I’m just old, but those all seem like kid games to me.

Can’t wait to see this meme in 8 years.

Roblox is significantly older than Minecraft (2006 vs. 2009/2011 depending on where you start counting) so the optimistic part of me thinks people won’t talk about Roblox like that.

Those who grew up with Terraria and Minecraft in their golden era are young adults.

So I’d say you’re not a young adult at least, wouldn’t say you’re old though.

If im feeling cheeky and one of my fellow nerd friends mentions a favorite character of theirs, i like to say “oh, that guy from Fortnite?”

Best way to catch up on the entire lore behind that character.

What’s Red Alert? Should I know this? I’m 31 and all I have ever played is Minecraft. Lol.
