Young millennial here ... did this guy forget about League of Legends? We definitely played competitive online games, in fact, we were the very worst and most toxic 😌🏆
Are you confusing something? OP is claiming OLD millennials (born in the early 80's, basically) prefer single player games.
You're saying you're a younger millennial that played LoL.
Well I have a few things to say to you. Older millennials were already adults before LoL existed. Like 25+ already.
LoL was just an offshoot of player created games made in a much older game called Warcraft 3.
Back in the WC3 days, some strategy pvp games existed and were popular, but they weren't very similar to how it is now. Particularly that there would only be like 3 other players and that there was no mics.
When I say popular, they were still far from the norm. The average kid/teen gamer didn't play them. Hell, in 1997 only 18% of US hoyseholds even had the internet.
They are a younger millenial, and talking about how not playing online games is a signifier of that. Not sure how you get this so wrong you think you can correct me about what it straight up says.
