there is a seriously real difference between someone who plays csgo dota and hoi4 vs someone who plays animal crossing splatoon and peak.

About ten years of age range, for the most part.

Its fundamentally two entirely different demographics which no over lap

Yeah, famously, people never get older

Which of these groups do you expect to be older, I honestly cannot tell. I swear, not bait.

Personally, I'd expect the nintendo group of these two to be the older one.

In my experience, you start out playing Splatoon as a kid and then you discover CSGO when you get to HS/College and then you get a job, get married, have kids, and its back to playing Splatoon.

I can almost guarantee that 4x players are the oldest, yes this is a vibes based assumption.
