Idk, i’m 30 and i fairly regularly pull all-nighters. Does take a bit longer to recover tho
Not a problem if you slept all day.
When I hit 30, I indeed felt like I aged rapidly and could no longer pull all nighters. Life happened and I changed my job from IT to manufacturing. I was no longer sitting around on my ass all day, but actually working my body.
Few years in, I feel younger than I did at 30 and have zero issues gaming all night.
All I can suggest is do resistance training (top tier activities are running, swimming and dancing. Pretty much anything that builds cardio without excessively building mass).
I think that is more a you problem. My work is the only thing holding me back from gaming all night.
To make this even more sad, consider that the Atari 2600 - probably the first real commercial gaming success story came out in 1977. That means a very large proportion of the gaming community are in their 50s
I’m not only tired, I want you damn kids to get off my lawn
I’m gaming at least 6hrs a day. Rarely go to bed before 4am. I’m >50, it’s possible 😁
And we still do cultural outside shit all day, so it’s not that.
- smoke meth
- hail satan
- thank me later
30+ year old gamers trying to pull an all nighter: I’m tired, boss.
Nearly 50 here: I’ve had the urge to do an all-nighter for weeks now but I know I probably couldn’t pull it off and that I’d be a wreck for 36 hours afterward.
My previous job at a factory with rotating day/night shifts gave me an apparently lifelong case of sleep disorders. My “eight hours of uninterrupted sleep” is more or less indistinguishable from my “one coffee after pulling an all-nighter in Factorio”.
How late does it need to be to count as an all nighter? Because I havent gone all the way since I was 28.
