Good taste, it's the high point of the series.
Is he proficient in the D'ni base25 numerals?
Age of Empires seem to have a fair number of crazy old codgers. One who goes by the name "Fatslob" is a 69 year old semi-legend who plays purely to get his enemies on tilt with his hyper-defensive make the game last for 5 hours extreme wall-off meta on Black Forest.
The Civilization series has it's share of grandpas and grandmas in the community as well.
There's a couple of characters in the Doom community who are quite old as well though probably the most famous one died recently.

If his grandpa would rather play as the Allies than the Soviets he is probably gay. It is entirely 100% not debatable that the communists were way cooler than a bunch of soyboy westerners. This goes for any video game in general, the communists will always have a way more aesthetic and bad ass looking military.
No, I'm not a communist or advocating for communism. I just like the uniforms/units in videogames that include communist factions.

My old man used to play New Vegas and Fallout 4. Back in the days he was obsessed with building settlements in Fallout 4, but if i ask him right now he says New Vegas had a better story and Fallout 4 is boring unoptimized piece of shit. Yet he still wants to upgrade his already top performing ATI+AMD built computer (runs witcher 3 and elex on max settings) to run Fallout 4 with hundreds of mods better, i just know its impossible. Last time he played anything - he enjoyed Elex, played through it multiple times and for whatever reasons considers outcasts the most logical faction in the setting.

We are going to be the grandpas who are playing videogames, anon. I'm talking about earlier millenials here (born late 70s-earlier 80s). Our parents didn't like vydia, it was a kid's thing to them, so they got old and still watch TV and read the newspaper and play dominoes in the park. We are going to be the first generation to literally be getting old playing vydia.
So make us look good and at least pick and choose good vydia to play as an old man.

He only said USAF veteran which means that he probably served in the air force without seeing a war, not necessarily a war vet. That said, he would be around 21 when American troops were withdrawn from Vietnam.

For the most part they play games that they like. It's a mixed bag, aside from the fact that they really aren't into shooters at all. A lot of them do strategy or simulators because they're slower paced. I had an uncle (basically another grandpa because he's over fifteen years older than my father) who played the Flight Simulator series since its inception all the way up through FSX.
A lot of them just play shitty mobile games, though. Like my dad (who is old enough to be a grandpa, seeing how I'm over 30) who does those silly "Brain Age" games and was into Angry Birds for a while. My mother plays very simple games that are more timewasters that requiring any kind of effort.
To be honest, though, I don't know very many older people that play games. Most of them are just couch potatoes watching westerns and Wheel of Fortune. All the rest are dead. Y'know, 'cause I'm old.
