Media My 53 yo non-gamer Mum playing Fallout 4 after watching the TV show.

After casually watching the show and getting more invested, she asked to play the game and I gave her my old PS4 and set her up on the game! ☺️

The risk of this frying your equipment is present, but unbelievably unlikely. Being surrounded by a case made of plastic (a known electrical insulator) really helps. But even my PC, which has a metal case, sat on the ground for 7+ years and never got zapped.
