    Videogame prices combined with hardware prices combined with the terrible state of games at launch makes playing older, actually finished games the better choice. It‘s not like Fallen Order‘s a bad game now, but I can play it at 4k handily without selling a kidney nowadays.

    …I wish people realizing this was the reason for the numbers but it‘s mainly big, old live service games lol

    I guess a lot of older games that show up on the list are free multiplayer games that still get new content like Fortnite, Roblox, League, and Apex, so they’re accessible, probably already a part of people’s routines at this point, and at least have new things every once in a while to keep it interesting.

    Also I wonder why they lumped CoD Modern Warfare II, III, and Warzone together as one game

    Read this as “6-year-old or older gamers” and was pretty shocked 40% of gamers were 5 or younger lol
