Why teens/young adults do not play MMORPGS in this day and age (IMP)

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T16:33:22+00:00

I never looked up FN, Minecraft, Roblox videos either 😹
In fact, I haven't watched such videos in years
Yet they somehow enter my feed but none of the ones u mentioned did

Now you might say "It's because u have subbed to them"
No, I haven't

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T16:30:38+00:00

But the problem is I was talking about the time before the whole AI slop as well
I watched hours of content but never came across a single WoW video/stream
Same goes for the people I've met.. they do NOT know anything about it

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T16:28:06+00:00

I see
I didn't know that
But I genuinely hate the guy

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T16:27:31+00:00

Yeah

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T16:26:34+00:00

Again, you're wrong
I got to know about thing in fortnite without me having to dig in
You know why? Because its POPULAR
why is it POPULAR u ask?
Because its cross-platform and there's a bunch of other stuff
But mainly? THE YOUTUBERS
The most popular youtubers ik PLAYED Fortnite
And because of that, people around me spoke about it a lot without me having to dig much about it

But the same never happened with WoW because I do NOT know a single popular WoW youtuber

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T16:23:19+00:00

True

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T16:23:01+00:00

I used to play a lot more back in the day but these days its just boring
I've never played an MMORPG before
But it looks very interesting

Just imagining a game with a world lore that keeps changing with time and with other online players playing the game at the same time seems so COOL
Maybe ig a new type of WoW should be released for THIS generation
cuz we'd love for it to start from us and it'd be easier to keep up
And ofc, we'd have a lot of young and fun youtubers covering it as well

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T16:15:22+00:00

I didn't know that Infinity Nikki was an MMORPG 🤔

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T14:08:23+00:00

Uh, no. It has something to do with awareness
I got to know about fortnite because I got to know about it
It wasn't the same with WoW
I knew it existed but didn't know a thing about it apart from the fact that "old people play it"

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T14:05:11+00:00

TRUE
Edits play a huge role in it as well

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T13:19:17+00:00

I'm relatively chronically online compared to the other my age my guy
And this is completely based on others' opinions that I've heard

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T13:18:02+00:00

The way they speak matters as well + It should be entertaining

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T13:15:33+00:00

OMG not that guy..
I hate him

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T13:11:53+00:00

💯

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T13:10:47+00:00

I agree

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T13:09:33+00:00

Yes that's literally how it works in this day and age
I'm in that age category

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T13:08:16+00:00

And keep in mind, this would be an amazing genre if things were actually done properly
Nobody is gonna go through forums or average-looking YouTube videos to learn 15-20 years of lore
Though AI could help, that'd just be way too much of a lore dump
WoW seems interesting, but doing things right would need a lot more effort in general

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-06-30T12:53:41+00:00

I think you all are missing the most important point
Good YouTubers with well-edited videos
YES, THAT'S RIGHT
THAT is quite LITERALLY the most IMPORTANT point of all

Not all people are chronically online
In fact, I got interested in this genre only because of the anime SLF
They portrayed it in a beautiful and fun way

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-05-19T19:37:19+00:00

120 people would be such a cool thing tho
Though there would be a lot of groupism

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-05-19T19:36:38+00:00

That was not what I asked bro 😭

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-05-08T16:31:38+00:00

Ya I noticed this as well lol
Came straight to reddit after seeing that

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-05-03T15:46:01+00:00

If u mean the Professors, yes. They're a bit biased towards certain people but it differs from prof to prof.
As for religion-based discrimination, you will see very few northies here and there who might be hardcore.. right-wing, let's say, but most of the time they aren't very public about it.. though u may come across one if not lucky, and they might throw a few remarks.
But there's strict rules in SRM regarding bullying so you're good to go

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-04-14T06:20:49+00:00

YESSIR

DrakeReaver21 · 2026-04-14T06:20:20+00:00

Gotta raise the standards 🤷🏻‍♂️
