What makes a gamer a veteran?

I was looking through some gaming articles and I saw [url=https://www.pcgamesn.com/overwatch-vs-tf2?amp]this[/url] one about a Team Fortress 2 "veteran" who had decided to play Overwatch after 10 years of playing TF2, and I wanted to get some other opinions on it. As I read I noticed the author seemed to have a different understanding of the word "veteran" than I do. Here's a quote:[quote]It’s been my go to game since I started PC gaming, and I’ve racked up nearly 400 hours in it.[/quote] Either that's a typo, or they're one of the most casual players I've seen in a while. I wouldn't think much of it if they had just said 400 hours, but the fact that they made a point to say "10 year veteran" in the headline is a little ridiculous. 400 hours over 10 years? That's not even an hour per week. For a game that's supposedly their "go to" they didn't really play it that often. I don't think I'm alone in thinking that a person's time played should be way higher to be considered a veteran. I've seen people who have played games for thousands of hours in less than a year. Games like Skyrim, CSGO, WoW, LoL, and, yes, Destiny. I guess what I'm trying to ask is this: What makes a person a veteran? I don't know the right term to use, but would it be years that you've played in terms of just logging on at some point in a year, or would it be total hours?

  • I think it works like this. To be a veteran of a particular game you would of had to stick with it for years watched it grow and learned the ins and outs of it, or at least that is my brief summary of the process. To be a veteran of a gaming franchise, cod for example the process would be similar but it would take place across multiple titles. The same applies for a console or a genera of video games like fps. To be a video gaming veteran you would have to again follow the same process but it would take place across multiple consoles, titles, series, generation, etc. [spoiler]touch me bby[/spoiler]
