What's your age?
Just noticed a similar thread in the MTW forums here at the Guild. Many people there were surprisingly old, so I wondered if there would be any average age difference between players of M2TW and MTW. I would guess older peolpe stick to the gameplay-over-graphics style of MTW, compared to the newer, flashier M2TW. I myself fall into the 15-19 bracket.
At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
Re: What's your age?
20-24 for me. I'd be interested in the results, too.
Re: What's your age?
I'm the 45-49 vote. Does it count that I still have MTW XL on my computer and play it from time to time? =)

I'm 52, I think the last time this sort of poll was done the average age was around 35.
BTW: a poll on World of Warcraft came up with a surprising average age of 25/26.

I'm 34 and my son who plays a bit is 6 (I keep telling myself his learning about Medieval history as his troops hack each other apart)
Re: What's your age?
You know, the predominant age bracket of video game buyers in the US is 25-30.Originally Posted by Didz
I'm surprised by how seldom that's reflected in online polls.
A recent Guild Wars poll just like this one showed the most common age to be solidly in the 14-21 bracket.
Oh, and I'm 38.

I play WoW as well and am not surprised at the average age. Once you hit the level cap (70 now), the game changes. You're either PvPing or raiding. Organized groups are needed and they attract a decidedly older crowd. My guild, I think, has nobody under 18. Most of us are in the 20-29 age group.
I also stopped playing console games as much when I hit 16. It was mostly PC after that. Right now, I barely play console games at all. I'm more into turn-based games now.
Re: What's your age?
We have some 45-54. Glad the elders are playing too! I've known they have been, but it's still cool to see.

Re: What's your age?
haha, i'm in the 25-29 bracket (i'm 26)
Its always interesting to see the spread of ages of the games we play.

Re: What's your age?
23 here. Guess I'm young, eh?
Re: What's your age?
I'm 27, I guess when you get older the simplified console system/games just get too bland for a more matured player. I actually find myself now wanting more in the games that I play, thats why I mostly play M2TW or something of this type.
Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy a good FPS once in a while but I haven't played one in a while.

Work-Still hate it but I appreciate having it more now.
Girlfriend - ? - looks like I am helping Nga now. Miss sex though.
Responsibilities, Too many bills to too little money
Reality - (Censored)
Kids - My son is improving a little bit each day, still far behind but I may have more kids in the future.
MTW - Kingdoms installed but...Urggg, too soon.

Conclusion, Life is worth Living now.

46, but even being an old fart I appreciate the graphical improvement over the primitive MTW representations. I need to get an 8800 so I can get the full benefit though.
One of my best friends is 55 and she (yes, she) still loves FPS games. Kill, baby, kill!

Re: What's your age?
All these young dudes makes me feel old. Good community company though!
Re: What's your age?
I'm really surprised by the relatively high average age on these forums... I didn't even think that "old" people played much pc games. No offence, dear elders, age is a relative idea. It seems I'm a junior here; 18 years old.

Re: What's your age?
Yeah the average age of strategy gamers is considerably higher than that of FPS or so gamers. Still, I think if you made such a poll at the TWC or the .com it'd be more skewed towards the lower age intervals, here at the .org you can find more old turds*

Re: What's your age?
Old enough to know better, still too young to care.
My wife says I haven't matured a day since we met at the university. I'm not sure how to take that though.

You're only young once, but you can stay immature forever. That's my goal.

I was guessing you'd be around 26 - I was about to ask who you worked for before going to CA. Guess that question answered itself just now.
