    The next generation doesn’t know how to use a mouse because they do everything on the phone. And yes, I have met people like that.

        “How quaint”… cracks knuckles, proceeds to type a hundred words a minute with all ten fingers on a QWERTY board.

      There’s a Pirate Software clip where he talks about the amount of kids who don’t even recognize a controller as an input and go straight to assuming all screens are touch screens

      Relevant clip from a gaming industry veteran. Kids don’t even know how to use game controllers, because they have only ever played phone or tablet games.

        Most of the world doesn’t know how to use game controllers, because they’re not used outside of consoles

        Just curious, what age group is he talking about here? 6-year-olds? My little brother’s 13 and he plays games on his Xbox all the time. And his slightly older friend’s a PC gamer.

        Young. It’s people that are 30-35 and younger that are not learning those skills, because they’ve never had to interact with an actual desktop/ tower.

          Your numbers are off. 30-35 absolutely interacted with desktops only until college. The smart phones when we were in high school were blackberries.
