I was 28 when I started, back in 2008. I’ve taken lots of long breaks, though. I honestly can’t understand people who stick with one game for… well, years at a time. Games have been my hobby since I was 8 years old I think. I’ve played more than a dozen mmo’s over the years, most of them not good. Now I’m playing some Eve and some Warframe. I’m a little bored with both, but all the mmo’s coming out this year or next look pretty bad. I’m thinking of taking up Stellaris or Endless Space 2. ---

My favorite thing with Endless Space 2 is planet killers… don’t judge me. ---
