Twilight at Genghis Con
I ran two sessions of a Savage Worlds version of Twilight (updated for 2020) at Genghis Con in Denver over the weekend and had full tables each time. The players were a mix of everything from former military with Cold War experience to teenagers who had only played Call of Duty. However, everyone enjoyed the adventures and was able to get into the apocalyptic setting, the tension of constant danger, and the moral choices that come with it.
The weekend solidified my belief that the stories that come from Twilight: 2000 (or 2013 or 2020 or whenever) are timeless and anyone can enjoy them. The individual setting may mean changes to the names and places, but the conflicts that create the adventure are universal and entirely rooted in the human condition.
