    Looking for a FC on Coerul

    Hi, I am looking for a FC that has an older player base. By that I mean, I am in my early 50's, and would love to play with and make friends with folks more my age.

    I have nothing against those in their 20's or 30's, I just find I am a bit more on the same wavelength of folks in their 40's or older.

    Does anyone know of a FC that has some old timers playing?

    We have a small group on coeurl called akatsuki. I'm nor sure what time of day they play since I'm usually on quite late ( after 8 pm central) but I can look for you next time I'm on
    I need to come back to Gridania anyway to finish leveling my lancer for monk job. I'm 41 years old btw.

    I don't know any real statistics on the matter, but I'm guessing that as a franchise that's been around a while, Final Fantasy has a fairly high proportion of players who have also been around a while. (Plus the demographics of gamers in general is getting older than it used to be anyway. The stereotype of video games as an adolescents' activity is getting pretty dated.)

    The FC I'm in (A Matter of Honor) doesn't have any sort of age criteria in who to invite, yet whenever I've seen references to real life within the FC chat, it's always been about players' work or their kids and not about school or parents. There may well be more players in their 30's than 50's, but I'm guessing there's probably also more in their 30's than in their teens. At least those of us in the older age bracket (I'm 45) have more in common with the 30 year olds than we would with teenagers.

    If you want an FC that's designed to attract older players, ours isn't it. If you simply don't want to be the only old-timer around, well I know that at 45 I'm not the oldest active player in our group (though in fact I don't know the ages of most of the others). You could contact me (Y'kayah Tia) in-game, or anyone you see with <HONOR> after their name. (Our FC allows any member to recruit new members.)

    If you haven't already, you should post this on your realm forums. You will get more results and views there.
