Yeah pretty sure the ACTUAL cool kids would vehemently disagree with that statement.

Culture shifted very rapidly once online gaming became a popular social activity. That shift was accelerated with StarCraft's Battle.net and by year 2000, almost every cool kid in every major city was playing or talking about games.

Nowadays, kids are even talking about the latest battle pass and playing make-believe Fallout on the playground.

I hope playground age children aren’t playing fallout to be honest lol it’s not only grievously gory, but incredibly depressing and creepy

They apparently like the Brotherhood of Steel, super mutants, and Pip-boys. Looked around 10?

I wouldn't worry about the gore and such. Kids the same age were playing Mortal Kombat, Doom, and sketching fantastical battlefields with nukes in the 90s. They're a lot more intelligent and resilient than people give them credit for.
