How Old Are You?

Seems like this game appeals to an older crowd. My son started playing after I did but he lost interest. He’s 16. My wife was actually playing a little at one point but her game kept crashing so she stopped.

I’m a 15yr old with 26 years of experience.

Maybe its the fact you have to put serious hours in to get anywhere with this game. Kids today want success RIGHT NOW!!!

Personally, I prefer my games to be slow burners and to keep me interested long term.

What I like is that I don’t have to have fast reactions to play this game. It’s bad enough just trying to see the screen now days…

I had my mom playing for a bit…she is 64. She played for months, but couldn’t put in the time with work and all.

TIL that marvel puzzle quest is dominated by fogies. Wait is that the nice term? Old geezers? Which is better, grand pa?

Get off my lawn!

Damn kids!!!

Did you just call me old? Well, Junebug, I really prefer the word experienced!

I’m 50, started with the VIC-20, been gaming forever

My wife often days something along the lines of, “My husband, the 12 year old.” Sometimes she’s generous and goes up to 13.

I like “vintage” or “retro”.

Well said… Retro indeed

60 here. I liken age to experience points.

I’m 31 and my first real experience with video games was coming home from school one day and seeing an NES my dad bought hooked up to the tv, but the truly defining moment was seeing the legend of Zelda being played over at my mom’s friend’s house by her kids. They told me i was too young to be able to play it but somehow I got them to let me borrow it and once I had to give it back my dad bought it. I was so excited and I had years of fun with that game. Also the first super Mario bros/Duck hunt. And the first tmnt game which I found at a garage sale of all places. There was also a baseball game I played a lot, but I can’t remember which one.

So always the perfect age for “cool adult” even as years and years go by and your father was directly involved in WW2?

I found these poll results so fascinating!

By the amount of constant whining I see on the boards, I expected that a lot of people here were teenagers.

How is topic in General? @Brigby … if I thought up
this poll, it would have been moved to off topic and I would have gotten another warning!

Yes, in the old forum that would have happened, but they got rid of the Off Topic section, so now everything ends up in General.
