Since mostly only people from 'back in the day' come around these parts anymore. How old were you when you first joined this community? For me, I believe it was the year 1999 and I was 12 or 13 years old. Now I'm 32. Raise your glasses for a toast to another 20 years.

And that, as they say, is that.

Yep, still gaming

I was uh, like 34? And DH didn't believe me when I said it back then!
I'm almost 50 now, and I'm still playing.

That could have been the case. But I'm sure I just lied and put in whatever date I needed to so that I could join.

I actually remember this very vividly. I was working a summer job between my senior year of high school and freshman year of college back in 2000. I was working at the VA hospital and got moved to cover a reception desk. Where I was covering was so slow I had nothing to do all day so would browse the internet. I stumbled across FFO and was enarmored to find a site like this. I remember the first thread I really read through was one of the FFVI vs. FFVII vs. FFVIII debates back in the day.

This site really helped open my world to games outside of FF and RPGs.

I'm 36 now and borderline dislike JRPGs, but still keep coming back to this site. I'm glad this place is still hanging on. Cheers!

I should clarify that I dislike many of the modern JRPG's out there. Stuff like HyperDimension Neptunia, Digimon Cyber Sleuth. Also the Gust stuff like the Aetlier series. I still very much enjoy the JRPG's of my youth. I also don't get the appeal of Persona, which has been one of the bigger JRPG franchises of the past decade. The Tales series seems hit or miss.

I have some interest in Octopath Traveler, but don't own a Switch. I'll be picking up DQXI for sure. So I guess maybe it isn't that I dislike JRPG's.....it's that I don't like the direction of some of the stuff that makes up the genre these days. And I don't have the time to dive into these types of games like I used to.

I personally love the Persona series, but if modern day Japan and time management quests aren't you're thing thenI can understand. Have you tried xenoblade?

Working on XBC. I am finding it hard to find meanintgful chunks of time to sit down with it (work/kids, etc). But there's a lot to like there. There are some minor japanese quirks I don't care for (the dialogue in battle is like nails on a chalkboard to me). But otherwise I really am enjoying XBC.

I had to change the language to Japanese because I couldn't stand the English dialouge during the fights.

I was 19 in late 2000. College provided me with large amounts of time to procrastinate and finish FF7. While doing that, I started checking out FF communities online and and eventually found my way here.

Guess I must have been about 12 or 13. That was a case of playing in the main site - checking the bestiary and downloading midi tracks of the music.

Haven't played an FF for myself since FFXII. Currently playing through FFX with my oldest boy. Shit's getting real, Sin is down and we're about to be inside it.

Sugar. Short AND sweet.

Good to hear I'm not the only 'rebel' to join this forum before the age of 16.

I am 34 years now. But I was a member of this forum since i was 19 years old. I build up myself so well now. Life is good.
