ARC Raiders is especially known for its player interactions, which don’t always go peacefully. A fan accidentally found an older Raider and has now shared his heartwarming interaction with him on Reddit.
Which players are involved? The player Bukaja shared on Reddit his peaceful encounter with another Raider, but this was not ordinary. His companion was a 72-year-old player who, despite his old age, still seemed fit.
They had a nice conversation, and Bukaja did not hesitate to help the older gentleman a bit.
A passionate gamer since 1980
What is the story of this old timer? The 72-year-old player shares a bit about himself. He is from Scotland and has been a passionate gamer since 1980 – of course, he wouldn’t miss the chance to dive into ARC Raiders.
Unfortunately, the older gentleman suffers from dementia, but he can keep his brain active with his games. When it comes to ARC Raiders, the player still enjoys himself, even though the robots give him trouble. Bukaja helped the man with numerous answers to questions about quests and loot and even gave him his collected materials just before the extraction point.
He would have liked to give him more, but unfortunately, he didn’t have enough with him. Many, however, appreciate what they see and celebrate the interaction between the two players.
What do players say about the video? They celebrate the older gentleman and share their experiences with seniors in gaming. 3xPuttRubbleBoagie reports about his 65-year-old father and explains that younger generations will likely see older players in their favorite games more often soon.
CitizenLohaRune shares about himself. At 54 years old, he is still into gaming, even in ARC Raiders – he comes from the era of the Atari2600. His father, 82 years old, is also a gamer, but ARC Raiders is not for him – he prefers to hang out in Doom and Quake.
