    Id say that language was probably something that appeared when games got a bit more complex. It was definitely a thing in late 90s when stuff like Fallout existed. I'm not a massive gamer or owt tbh. I do take your point on generational experience. I'm just pulling your leg cos I like...

    Black Sabbath Farewell Gig

    And a nettle tea, which is bizarrely a Heysham delicacy. It's a great spot, made surreal by the juxtaposition of the olde worlde village and church with the ** massive nuclear power station. There's also two nature reserves in Heysham which are both good.
