Older gamers

<-- 51 Reporting in.

I only have one question.

WHY NO TIFA GLAMOR????

Will be 36 in July. If anyone ever wants to do something in game, or even just wants to chat, let me know. If you happen to be on the Behemoth server and need a free company let me know, I'm the FC leader of the free company <Incorruptible> and we are always looking for new folks. Just keep in mind we are a casual free company so no raiding 4 hours a night 5 nights a week for us, lol. You can see more about us here:

I can tell you, even though I'm currently 35, some days I feel like I am 90+. It doesn't help that I have a plethora of health issues and a badly messed up back either.

I’m over the hill as of a couple months ago.

Hi All

Just thought I would pop in and add my two pennies' worth.

I have just passed the 20th Anniversary, of the 20th Anniversary of my 20th Birthday! :D

Been play games on-line since dial-up and MUDS and use a keyboard and mouse, as I loathe these new fangled Controller Pad Things.

You are all a bunch of wet behind the ears whippersnappers. I am 73 and am still playing. I love it when players complain about being in their 30s. Wish I could remember my 30s.

48 here, and a female gamer too, playing since my 20s believe it or not, I love gaming and so my husband too, we are both addicted, never had children that is why we got only each other, I love ff games and started to play it since ffX, but I played other games before that, I also love the sims, assassin creeds, gta, and more, I’m a good gamer and so is my husband, I love all ff gamers as if they are my children, so happy with this thread :)

I'm 38 and most of the people I play with are in their 30s. Makes no difference how old you are when playing games, as long as you enjoy it. I'm sure I'll be playing video games into my 70s and 80s.

Memories tend to be forgotten when there's nothing important about them. I remember when I was 28, but I can't tell you anything about 20-27, but I can tell you in great detail all my memories from my single digits. I will NEVER forget my 30s, because 32 is where I experienced a life changing event that affects my health to this day.

52 now and started FFXIV last year, totally new to the story and it is a lovely breath of fresh air after 15 years of World of Warcraft. I have also lived and worked in Second Life for a similar period.

Before then for me it was single player stuff like Dungeon Siege, Neverwinter Nights, Myst, Riven, Bugdom ... and all the way back to Atari 2600 :D

Hey, gaming keeps you young in playfulness, breadth of imagination and sense of fun. "Inhabiting" your character is very liberating also !

My reactions are not always as fast as they used to be, and complex encounter stuff boggles me now more than it did, but I do my best ... and I have *fun* which is the main thing I think :)

I used to be nervy about group runs, but just about everyone i have met in this game has been pretty cool, kind and enjoyable to be around, so it's mostly cured me of that !

Stay young at heart <3

awww so many lovely replies to this topic I hope we can keep this thread alive its so nice to see a positive lovely thread ^O^

I will always love gaming I have played so many over the years, If I get lucky enough to get really old I will be the one sat in the old peoples home with my games haha.
