@adamconover Yes. Absolutely yes. This has been said before but it never stops being true. Lots of us relate to this, not only with games but also books, comics, etc.
In my case, adulthood also means having the technical ability to create everything child me ever wanted (drawing, music, videogames...), with just a small fraction of the time, excitement and focus I had back then. So it's like my dreams came true and crashed down at the same time. Yay?
