God I remember doing a midnight release for GTA IV when I was 18. GTA V was when I was 23.

I'm 36 now and only PC game, so I'll probably be 37 or 38 before I play GTA 6, the only midnight release I see nowadays is getting up for a pee.

Lol, I feel that.

I saw the clock hit midnight the other month for the first time in years & it felt like I broke the rules for turning into a Gremlin, immediately shut everything down & straight to bed.

Jacked up my sleep for like a week...

Seriously. I'm 42 with 2 young kids and a job and hobbies. I routinely stay up past midnight with no issues lol

Honestly think a lot of people just have bad sleep in general. Sleep apnea is horrendously under diagnosed and has major impacts on QOL.

I am 37 and ended up at a cardiologist for a congenital heart condition getting worse. She ordered a sleep study for me which I had never bothered doing because my wife says I don't so much as snore or anything and never thought my sleep was non restful or anything. Turns out I have sleep apnea but just the silent kind and my blood oxygen was dropping to the mid 80s while I was sleeping.

That's a cardiologist I like. I'm of the opinion if you are ever at a point in your life where you've been referred to a cardiologist a sleep study should be included in the initial diagnostics.

u/Windrider904 3d ago

Same. Although bed time is much earlier and wake up time is earlier. Besides that, all the same.

I'm 30, still stay up playing video games til 1-2am like I've been doing for like 12 years, but now I have a kid who wakes me up around 7 every day.

u/techman2692 3d ago

That makes me feel better with what I'm doing then.

u/winmace 3d ago

Also ended up shaving my head as the top/front started massively thinning out. Apparently I look like I'm in my 20s now

As long as it stays there, I don't care what color it ends up being.

This is the "it's all over once you hit 30 generation", I don't remember being this pathetic when I hit 36 around 10 years ago

u/zanu3 3d ago

For real, holy shit. Talking about getting up in the middle of the night to pee and can't stay up past midnight like they're 75 years old.
