As someone whose 27 now, I'm pretty shocked by the longevity of some of the games that I played growing up.

Games like Minecraft, Supercell, Geometry dash just to list a few, are arguably STRONGER today than they were 10/15 years ago. Even snapchat, I thought was gonna die after 2020 but my nephews today are using it more than ever.

Whereas, for my cousins who are around 40 now, basically all of the games that they played growing up are dead.

So. I can kinda see minecraft being around for another decade to say the least. It doesn't even feel that crazy for it to be around for another century... or even the rest of humanity? (like bicycles?)

Brood war is a big game from that generation which is still played. Isn't counterstrike also from roughly that generation's youth?
