drinking the worm poison from Dune 2 so I can absorb the memories of my father playing SOCOM with his work buddies in 2005

Hey cohorts! To Kelsey's comment about 'older' people playing MMOs, I used to be aleader for a couple guilds and clans in the early to mid 2010s. For MMOs, I've played and talked to multiple players who were veterans and it honestly was very cool talking to them. Some were dads and moms, and literally were a few husband and wife combos. MMOs raids were also a great for people who have served because being systematic and being able to dish out orders is a very transferrable skill. In addition, I used to play Jedi Academy Plus and Movie Battles 2 which is a crazy total conversion mod (which is still being updated) I played with dads then and it got to a point where we eventually played with his kids. I feel that kind of interaction is slowly dying because of mobile games.
