Anyone feel to old...

It's a thought that has crossed my mind as well.


We could just give our accounts to our children. Who would give it to theirs, and it would go on and on..

It's crossed my mind, as well, however I may still be alive in 70 years as may you and many others around here, and so some of us may still be around these forums in 70 years, if Bethesda should happen to exist at that time. How interesting would it be if the year was 2080, a person comes to these forums for the first time, and they see you with a join date from over 70 years ago and 200 stars under your name? :P

Wow, I never thought of that...

Will there even be video games then? I think all we would have to do to play Fallout would be step outside our front doors..

There were movies being made back in 1940. I'm assuming video games will still be a form of entertainment in 70 years, as they've already been around at home for at least 38 years, right? If they do exist at that time, will they be virtual reality games, though? What kind of TVs will we be watching? Will the colony of the moon be a bustling city? If we were living 1000 years ago, the answer might not be so mysterious, but in this time, perhaps moreso than in any other time in human history, technology is advancing very rapidly. I start to feel old by remembering using cassettes and playing 2D video games, and I'm only 16 years old. The internet, which, by all that I'm aware of, only became a widespread thing in the past 10-15 years allows people from across the world to communicate in seconds. Cellphones certainly have an impressive and relatively new capability of doing the same things, and a video game that was difficult for the new, large computers of 1994 to run is now running on Freddo's phone.

I remember PCs back when Bill Gates was still poor. ;) I don't think I'll ever get too old to post in internet forums. This one has a pretty decent group of "Get off my lawn!" types anyway. :lol:

Nope. I should say I don't feel that old. I mean I am only 22. So I don't feel that old. I feel in the middle, I don't feel that old.

At barely 17, I feel pretty young on this forum, or at least here in CD. In any sub-forum relating to a recently released game, or a game that will be released soon, however, I feel like I am at least sixty-five, because: [censored]. Kids today...

I like it here, because it's mature enough when I'm feeling thoughtful, and immature enough on the outskirts that I can go off and do some minor Trollan and still be considered intelligent.

Although I am frankly embarrassed with my own behavior when I had just joined... *shudder*.
Im 17 so because my age group is the one you refer too, no I dont...

And we can tell that you are seventeen, because, when it comes to apostrophes, you can't seem to find that wonderful key below caps lock and its twin brother below enter...
:D (Just playful teasing)

This is an example of why my answer to the OP's original question is yes.

What I said or what I was talking about?

That's what I enjoyed about her. When I got it, I was like hey! That's really funny!

She was(/is) a great source of good music, too.

**70 years later**

That's right kids, I was here back when the Internet and gaming were still in their relative infancy. Back when we used keyboards and mice, not this hologram technology business.

"Back in my day, kids didn't get to download their... whatchamacallits, ah, right, thoughts on to the internet to roam hologramically. Now get off my virtual lawn you crazy, iron man suit wearing kids!
