Age and time put into gaming strikes me every so often. I was chatting out of character online with someone in NWN one day only to realise that I not only had gamed longer than he had been alive but I had a daughter older than he was.
His response was "u'r old!". Then he wanted to know why old people play games. Hrmph. I don't think I am eligible for senior citizen discounts on the RPG books quite yet. And so what if we are indeed encouraging a gaming night to be added on the social events calendar in the nursing home when we get there?
Which brings up a whole slew of interesting questions ...do games offer tid bits for the adult mind, is it ok for adults to play, why do some adults "outgrow" gaming?
