Very cool. Im in my early 30's and been gaming since mid\early 80's and I sometimes wonder if I will lose interesting in it as I get older, hope not. Your thread gives me hope! Now, I just hope these types of old school RPG's are still around. If they dissappear my interesting in gaming may also.

I'm even older! :lol: 62. I am enjoying this game alot. I've been playing it for several hours (yesterday) and it didn't bring on a bout of Carpal Tunnel in my wrists. That alone is a wonder.

Thank you Basilisk for a wonderful adventure...even if I have to play a male instead of a female. :wink:

I'm 43, so add me to the older generation of gamers :) I'm not surprised the older crowd gravitates towards this game. I loved Oblivion though. I think I've logged more hours into that game than any other game ever. I love exploration and Oblivion has that in spades.

Nice, there's quite a few of us here.

I am 45 myself and I love gaming. I still go to a local shop a couple days a week and play all kinds of games with my friends, most of whom are quite a bit younger than me.

I also run a D&D campaign every other Saturday.

Trust me, getting older does not have to dampen your love of gaming.

41 here and I'm about to buy the game as well :)

Though I have to say that I think the torch should shed a bit more light lol

Regards & Good Hinting All!

This is something I miss dearly. But with my kids hitting 12 and 10 this year, I'm hoping to start up a regular D&D session for them and a few friends. Just have to brush up on the rules. :roll:
