51 here.

Glad to see Im not the oldest player.

Ive had people tell me its odd that someone my age plays video games.

I dont bother replying, I just dont speak to them anymore because I dont need stress and toxicity in my life.

 

Same

 

Also this whole thread made me think on this quote:

 

"Alas, eleventy-one years is far too short a time to live among such excellent and admirable hobbits. I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."  -Bilbo Baggins

I am 60. I was in the second round of Bata entrance. I played till it closed. I have LT membership to Champions that I rarely use. When COH closed I pretty much gave up MMOs. When I heard about this I had to check it out.

Well, just hit Level 49 on Wednesday.
Gotta make L50 soon, or parts are gonna come falling off!

At 50 parts are falling off or being cut off.

Someone in-game the other day bemoaned the fact that they were about to turn 30.

 

I was like, "My young brother, when I joined beta I was 39." 😂 I would french kiss Stheno to be 30 again for just a weekend. 😘

[MistressOhm]

55 and change.

 

Started playing in 2006, I think it was.  First MMO was Everquest (wow what a grind THAT was) and then WoW... and then someone told me there was a superhero MMO.   Oh REALLY?

I was in my early 30s when I started CoH in beta in 2004. My first (and really only) MMORPG. Now I'm... significantly older... and I do like my AARP discounts and benefits

I haven't read through this entire thread, but from what I have seen I am definitely on the younger side of the community. I am 27, turning 28 in a month, and started playing on live while I was in middle school, around 2006-2007ish. I played all the way up until shut down which was the same year I graduated high school. I always thought I would play CoH after I moved out and through college. The shut down hurt me a lot because CoH really was a game from my childhood and I played until I was a young adult. Not having it be apart of my life anymore sucked. I am thankful for the Homecoming team for letting me experience my favorite game of all time again as an old man now 😜

[Ruin Mage]

I'm 29 going on 30.

I was there for the dawn and the dusk of live.

[Colonel Mustard]

Hit 55 this year and my curmudgeon status is in full swing!

Not older than Wizard Lord.
