A good response to this situation is to stop him from leaving, then explain to him that “nobody is too old for video games, they are made to sharpen problem solving skills, and provide an immersive experience, not to single handedly be your source of victory. Video games are an activity for the play, not the win. Cherish the play, not the contrary, and you will never be too old for video games. There’s no such thing as quit, so when you feel like quitting, simply restart, and soon enough, you’ll level up.”
