Kind of sad to think of that this is how it is now. Even though i get excited when a new game is released, and i think to myself that i'm going to stay up all night – aaaaand after a short while i surrender to being too tired to stay up.
I tend to get in more game time than most people my age, but never late/overnight. Gotta be up at 6am for work.

Instead of counting sheep, i count the games I have in my steam library. I usually get to around 120 before I fall asleep

I usually get 2-3 hours of game time before i have to go to sleep so i don’t come late to work.

In the adult’s defense, at this point we’ve seen every plot and experienced every style of game. Plus ads, skinner boxes, and micro transactions.

I’m late 30’s and still play games online with friends until 3am on Friday night. Usually I have to force myself to go to bed.
During the week though I don’t really play much and never past 10pm if I do.

It’s so true, unfortunately.
I still have the same passion for gaming as when I was younger, but post 40 me needs a reasonable bedtime too..
