    I started watching people play games because I got old. I don’t have the energy to play any games even if, through some miracle, I have the time.

      Yeah I do play one game but resisted for the longest time. There’s no way I can invest the time to get good enough to have fun.

      Even learning the controller was a huge time investment - so different from the simple joystick I learned on as a teenager

      Eventually I did but only to game with my kids. It’s been a ton of fun …… because they know what they’re doing. However in the last few years they’ve moved on to other games and no longer want to play “the one”. While I understand that, now I’m back at step one, I don’t know how to play and don’t have the time to invest. At least I’m familiar with a controller but ….

      I’m fine watching them play, and I’ll stick with the casual games that really don’t require an investment

      Then you may consider requesting from your government to facilitate and fund research to develop real aging-reversal therapies. They will not be available next year, but with right focus they could be here in 10-20 years.
