Zoomers played Minecraft

Millennials and Alpha play(ed) Fortnite

You could also put 10 years of RuneScape or WoW for millennials and a plethora of games that came out between 2010-2020 for Zoomers

I’m a millennial who found access to the alpha version of Minecraft on a forum circa 2011. Millennials were the forerunners of Minecraft.

Fortnite came with a build-mode PVP that was a huge turn off for me and many old-head millennials. That game was primarily for Gen Z and Gen-Alpha.

Millennials did not play Fortnite.

Not true! I installed it and played for 5 minutes once!

Yeah, I played a few times right when it came out, but put it down, didn't feel like it was for me. I am currently 37, so pretty middle of the pack millennial. I'm sure someone born in '95 played.

My sister was born in 97, my brother in 93, and me in 90 and I always have to remind myself she isn't, technically, a millennial.

No idea if she's played Fortnite, though.

My wife's current fortnite addiction would suggest otherwise
