Interesting, so being into ad-infested, freemium mobile games is okay, but being into real games that you can play straight through without interruptions is cringe?

I'm suddenly glad to be an adult.

At least according to the three children im around on a regular basis, phone games are also in the category of "cringe things that are boomer-coded"

That's super interesting. I would have assumed most kids nowadays were completely addicted shitty mobile games and playing on the go would be the norm.

I did too, but apparently its "for babies"

Are they just opposed to the concept of games itself? Wow, what a way to have a childhood.

They seem to be against playing it in public, not the game it self

Kids these days have it bad for games.
