if you have been gaming 10 years and only play AAA.

Half Life 2: A 2013 classic.

We're 2024 already?

The point was more about AAA only seem to be pushing FPS nowadays.

We’re 2024 already?

So we are. That kind of makes the 10 year statement a little more silly, no?

Half Life 2 is just shy of being 20 years old.

Anyways, I enjoyed how old you made me feel with this comment 😅

How am I supposed to know that if I don't follow the genre? Someone said 2013, I trusted that information.

"I don't follow FPS" "As if you didn't know this FPS trivia"

People who like to shoot polygons repeatedly are a little tetchy.

I understand you are in other arguments in this thread. This wasn't meant to be one of them. I just got a kick out of you using "10 years", "nowadays" etc for a game that is 20 years old.

It's the same energy as these kinds of memes
