Are you into gaming?

Computergames used to be played in arcades. Before that a few lucky ones may have had a Pong gaming machine at home. A gameconsole with one single game: Pong (careful. Addictive).

I still have mine.
The average gamer spends some 10 hours a week on a game console. And not only teens like to play videogames. Gaming is also very popular with middle aged dads of eleven twelve thirteen fourteen children: Elon Musk is an avid Diablo 4 player.
To become a top 20 player worldwide in a highly competetive video game you would have to play more than 10 hours a week. Where Musk gets the time from to raise his gazillion children, run half a dozen companies and head the US Department of Government Efficiency is beyond me.  Is he on drugs maybe?


Do you have any favourite (type of) videogames you like to play? And how many hours a week do you? At the time of writing I only play Civilization II. About two hours a month.
