I'm optimistic now. (Gaming)

Call of Duty: Ghosts' awful story was written by Stephen Gaghan, 50 year-old Academy Award winner (screenplay/Traffic), while Neil Druckmann was 33 when he wrote the story of The Last of Us, and he started out as an intern at Naughty Dog in 2004.

Food for thought.

I've thought about it, and I see no point to your post other than to provide two examples which do not in any way illustrate or contradict the notion of my statement. Please refer to the 'on the whole' sentence. I can point to great scripts written by young people and shitty ones written by old people too.

The problem is that you seem to think that your statement is inherently true, but you provide zero evidence in favor of it. Have you played every game? Can you measure the ratio of "bad story" to "good story" that ends with a value that can be considered as being "on the whole"?
Have you weighed that ratio against stories written by people sitting in front of computers, young or old, against stories written by people that you know have "experienced life", as those two are apparently mutually exclusive to you?

How do you measure that against the ratio of "good" and "bad" stories in other mediums? Is there a correlation between the age of the writers and the quality of the stories there?

Basically, what point are you trying to make, and what evidence do you have to support that point?
