I’ve been a gamer for a long time, since the early 2000s. I’ve played and owned hundreds and hundreds of games and finished a majority of them. Many have held my attention long enough to replay many times, do side content, etc. I was also a kid up to college age during most of this time. Now in my late 20s, I’m lucky to just be able to finish a few relevant releases every year. But I find everywhere on the internet people talking about platinuming games. This is something I’d never been interested. Maybe finishing everything to get content, but never just for the sake of it. Do that many people really do this? And how old are the people that do? I cannot imagine balancing that much time playing games with school, work, or a family. It doesn’t even seem appealing to me. Explain?

    That’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying as an avid gamer I can maybe devote a few hours a week to playing games, and I don’t see the appeal of trying to platinum something rather than trying the other things out there I’m interested. Maybe it’s an attention span thing. I prefer breadth of games to diving so far in and achieving every single thing in one
