So your years of relevance are supposed to be 22 to 35 years old.... What do people do with the last 30 years of their work like before they retire? I don't think you understand how careers work. And ideas don't just magically stop after you turn 30.
These questions are irrelevant. The gaming industry is stagnant and that is because those in charge are it if ideas. Can we drop the whataboutism and move on with life?
BTW I speak as someone of roughly 30 years of experience working in tech. I now work at a university have student teams. I recognize the future when I see it. Everyone is a pretty much a dinosaur compared to Gen Z and Alpha.
Returning to my actual point: Valve is a great example of a company that put out its ideas then made way for new ones.
