I think the amount of games you have should increase fast at first and then only grow marginally as you get older. Or is it just me?

Computer parts are expensive. My pc specs are more of a downward graph. ddr3 ftw. Am4 b550 stuff isn't good enough to warrant an upgrade and b650 motherboards with their stupid overpriced ddr5 ram are too expensive to be worth it.
I already have ddr4 ram from my "old" but newer motherboard that stopped working (before someone points out ram prices and is like uhm ACKTUALLY)
Replace the green line with “Storage space on my PS5” and I’m in too!
having responsibilities sucks
My PC specs have plateaued as of late, but we're both in this picture. 😅
Mine haven’t 🥵
I paid scalper’s prices for a 4090fe because the FE is the only 4090 that fits in my FormD T1 case. (there is one other card, but you have to mod it)
The main reason I don't play a bunch of games is that my PC specs have actually gone down a few times...
I had a very nice gaming laptop that died, Got my PC running again, and then had to move, now I only really have room for a laptop, and my backup laptop is... bad. I've ordered a new gaming laptop that's better than anything I've had in years... I might actually get to play modern games again. Kind of looking forward to it.
Same, same. I bought my system well over a decade ago and the only thing I've upgraded is the GPU. System still works great for general computing, but it's missing some of the CPU features newer architectures have like SSE[?-4] and AVX.
I have to wonder about the games I play arc rising above the games I have arc in the early part. Is this going to friends' place to play their NES or piracy or borrowing your buddy's AD&D hardbounds to make a character?
Over time, I've noticed I like first-person base-building survival. Before we had those, I had to get all my jollies in microdoses by playing different games and tolerating the parts I don't like so much. Now that it's not only a thing, but there are a few really good, well polished ones, those few are the ones I play.
