      I am totally going to borrow this reply, though usually it’s not true; the choice to be cruel and bitter typically a subconscious need to lash out.

      Encouraging people to be themselves and not determine their worth based on the age of the games they play? Yes. People are more than this. It’s sad as hell to put yourself down just because the game is old.

        It’s a joke. I chuckled. I don’t think anyone is putting themselves down due to seeing it. The joke works even if you take out the age of the game.

        You’ve come across aggressive and with the intent to put the poster down. So… That’s not very nice of you?

          But I’m here saying that the age of the game doesn’t matter and that it doesn’t make them a loser like they imply

            Where does it imply loser? It’s a light self deprecating joke. I recall making the same digs at myself because my Sims 3 character was doing really well and I felt like I was living vicariously through them. The age of the game is a fraction of the joke. Do you get this agitated when people joke in real life around you?
