What is the average age for GCII players?

from GalCiv2 Forums
The title says it all. To me, from my post Frogboy Rap Song, seems that college kids and 30-year olds like this game. I'm not sure though. If Kryo or anyone else has a fact about this, put it up here. Thanks!

My guess is that the average age for this game is 35. There have been a number of 13 to 15 year olds that play this game. Generally they impress with the level of maturity that they exhibit, but there's no real shortage of 50 year olds and even a couple of people into their 70's.

This conversation has occured before and will probably occur again. The following is the main thread. I know there have been others as well but I couldn't seem to locate them.

How old are you?

I like the Altarian lassies to average around 26 years....but alas, I'm no longer a 'playah'...or so my wife keeps telling this middle aged worn out grognard.

I would have loved this game had it been around when i was 7 years old! Now i am 35 but the children these days are different to my day.... I dunno, things were allot slower for children in my day, i could sit and play with a stick in the dirt for an hour if i wantet too, but these days kids are hungry for constant stimulation like a drug addict looking for the next hit. This makes games like galciv too slow for them to stay interested.

When I was a kid, we would lay in the dirt, hold the stick between our teeth, and stare at the shapes in the clouds for at least the entire day...

Hehe, me too

There was a vote on it a while ago, the average age was about mid twenties to mid thirties.

hehehe,,, ah life without computers/television.

As a kid i used to live in Mildura which is a rural fruit growing district in Australia. I was never inside during daylight hours! i was always out catching lizards/poisonous snakes, stealing fruit, fishing, playing in irrigation chanels,,, etc etc kinda a bit of a life like the crockodile hunter (rip).

You had dirt! When I was young we only wished we had dirt. Dirt hadn't been invented yet. It took another few millennium of wind and water erosion before we even had sand for god's sake.
