Middle aged: Don't bother upgrading, you know you won't use it. Mediocre PC - No free time
This really hit home. I have to play games I can squeeze a half an hour to an hour into every now and then now. No more online multiplayer stuff, more zelda and puzzlers.
And so many modern games take half an hour just to get through the intro. I don't have time for that, I'll just play PS2 era games again.
I have a mITX tower i built in 2015. Feels very obsolete nowadays for games. Don’t have much time to play anymore after getting kids etc but I might just do like my friend and lease a gaming rig for two years then decide if I want to keep it and pay the remainder, return it no questions asked or lease another one.
