16 here

i think morrowind is more of a mature game though, kids these days tend to prefer killing things randomly
morrowind requires patience

I'm 36 ;)

Actually, what I find is really great about some of these games is that there is often a significant social levelling factor at work, and you find yourself chatting with people whom you might not necessary get to know in a 3D environment simply because of the age difference or different social circles. :cool:

I notice that lifeishell91 doesn't think anyone over 50 would be playing this game..... Hmmm..... :p

I think it is probably because like most teens Lifeshell can't conceive that life does actually go on after 30.... :p ;)

It does go on, to be sure, albeit with less frenzy.... ;)

Perhaps aged gamers are clinging to their youth? :(

Nah.. I think it's just that gaming is an effective escape or pleasant hobby no matter your age... :D That is what I try to tell myself anyway... :rolleyes:

18

If here in Germany more aged people would play some PC games the world would be a better place...at least if these aged people would be responsible for censoring games and movies. They wouldn't look at bloody shooters like "Oh my god, I can't handle it, so how can a 16 year old chap?".
But I have to admit that I was sort of confused when I saw how old you are@dragon wench
Thought you'd be...half that age? Really interesting.

13 here this game does take some patience like thousand frac says all my friends like games like Dead or alive were the whole point is to knock some1s head off basicly.

i like the complexity of the game thats y i keep playing it.


plus its better in my opinion to use your brain on something thats fun instead of math homework for hours at a time...

speaking of wich i should go do...

I'm 15. Though I act 2. :D Anyways, I think most people put their birthdates in their profiles if that helps you at all.

Morrowind rocks. I like it mainly because I can collect a bunch of stuff and... uh... well, store it in my house. :D Nah, I like all of it. I think my favorite thing is shooting things from a distance with my bow and taking them down with one shot. It makes me happy. ;)
Two of my very best friends like Morrowind. One's 14 and the other's 18. I sorta hang with the "gamer group" at school, so we sit there and talk about all sorts of stuff. We're just getting over our Morrowind-chat phase. (I know, I'm a nerd. :p )

I love this game.

I thought you ment how long we'd been playing the game (as in how many days you've spent in morrowind) ;p

I'm 14.

okay, i'm 13. yah. i agree. Morrowind has a purpose in this world. it isn't just there for the pure enjoyment of blowing cliff racers' heads off but the satisfaction of escaping the (real) boring everydaylife and "bonding" with your character . :cool:

I happen to be quite older then all of you,
And yet at the same time I am younger.
