    Older NA Gamers Here

    Hello,

    My husband and I are in our 50's and we love MMO"s. We are enjoying FFXIV ARR very much. A little about us:

    We each have 4 classes at level 50, and three crafting skills each at 50. Our characters have gear between i80 - i93, with most at i90>. We have 2 SMN's, 2 BRD's, MNK, WAR, WMN, and lancer.

    We play most days of the week. We are pretty much free to play on weekends. We like to socialize and joke around.

    Problems:

    Being over 50 it seems that the FCs we have joined are ~ 18 - 35 yrs. Sometimes I think people feel like they are playing with their parents. We feel a little isolated and would like to find a FC on a NA server that has older gamers, is fun, not too serious, active, and looking at end-game progression.

    We are presently on Coeurl and would move the whole show to another server if we found the right FC. We have successfully ran guilds in the past and decided we don't have time to do that anymore.

    I haven't heard of a 35+ linkshell. You're an extremely small demographic in comparison to say, 18-30 year olds. That being said, you would be better off finding a FC that doesn't have what you consider to be young characteristics and not including age. I know you've seen people 50+ with the sense of a teenager. :P

    Turning 46 here, on Cactuar. My FC has a number of younger players but the leader and a few others are in their early 40's. Lot's of fun. If you ever come this way look us up. "Old School" is our FC name

    The age thing is mostly true. I haven't encountered gamers that were 20+ years over me in a long time, let alone 10+ years. Probably since my days in ff11. It was nice to have older players around that were mature, friendly, and helpful.

    If you ever want to stay on Coeurl and give .:Sleeping Forest:. a try, feel free to hit me up with a /tell. "is fun, not too serious, active, and looking at end-game progression" is the only requirements we fit that you are looking. our members are in the 18-30ish range. (though not everyone says their age so this is a guesstimate)

    We do have married couples and live-in couples as well. so idk.

    but I do hope that you are able to find a place that suits your needs. good luck on your search
