91-Year-Old Beats Resident Evil 9 Three Times, Proving Games Have No Age Limit

A 91-year-old player just cleared Resident Evil 9: Requiem on his third playthrough and unlocked the true ending. That alone deserves full marks.

This isn't Yang's first rodeo. He's beaten Resident Evil 8: Village and Elden Ring—both hardcore titles. Can a 91-year-old's reflexes handle RE9's combat pace? I doubted it too, but he pulled it off.

What impressed me most wasn't the clear itself. It was his reasoning: "I spent hundreds of yuan on this game. If I don't play it thoroughly and get my money's worth, how can I justify that?" Three full runs. Every hidden element for the true ending, excavated. Meanwhile, how many players chase launch hype, drop a game after two hours, then complain it wasn't worth the price?

This is what veteran players look like. Not about age—about respecting the game. You paid for it, so engage with it seriously. Squeeze every drop of content out. I've seen Steam libraries with hundreds of games where less than 10% ever get played. Yang sets the standard: if a 91-year-old can do three playthroughs, what's your excuse about not having time?

Capcom probably didn't envision this kind of player when developing RE9. But that's gaming's magic—it doesn't care about your age, only your willingness to commit. Yang proved that across three complete runs.
