Acacia Sgt Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) Well, personally, I consider anything before thirty as "young". As I see from eighteen to twenty-nine as "young adult". Then it's "Middle-aged adult" or just "adult" until "old/third age adult", which would be... well, I don't have much of a defined age for that yet. 1 minute ago, Caster said: @Acacia Sgt Btw, what DQ games have you played and finished? I'm just curious. The first four I've finished. I'm currently playing V, and I've played VIII and IX as well.

It's even past a quarter of 100 if you reach the upper limit of human lifespans. *Le sigh* i will use Deepl to translate this, since i am lazy Quote Hi, a few weeks ago, I was lying next to an 89-year-old man. The nurse asked when he stopped smoking. His answer was: "Oh... I was still young then. I think at 57 or 58". Wow. I was in bed in shock. It sort of opened my eyes. An almost 90-year-old describes himself as "young" at nearly 60. When he called himself "young," he was still twice as old as me. And even three times older than me altogether. But why am I so surprised? It's perfectly logical, isn't it? And why am I telling you this? My professional education is that I "only" had a secondary school diploma, finished two apprenticeships, then I made up my high school diploma and now I study business informatics (after his studies he is still 3 times older than me, if he doesn't age...). Quite often I had the thought: "if only you had done everything right earlier". Now I know that this is total nonsense. I still have so much time in my life ahead of me that it doesn't matter if I do two or four apprenticeships. Once you've found what you enjoy and enjoy yourself, at the end of the day it's much more important than having a perfect CV. So if you don't feel like studying or training, then do something else. Don't torture yourself because you waste "time" like I did, but look around and make experiences. If you are studying and you don't enjoy it, then try an education. What are three years in our life when after that we know what we really want to do? Many of us still have so much time ahead of us, so why waste time on something we are not interested in? I'm probably not the only one who's had it this way. For some of us it will be a matter of course. Nevertheless, I wanted to share my experiences with you. Thanks for reading.

Same. Whenever I'm reminded I'm 27, I have to do a double take, because I really don't feel that age at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterIceTeaPeach Posted July 5, 2020 Author Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) Radiant Dawn made a become a serious videogamer when I got it in 2013. I played a few console and PC games when I was little, but nothing compared to now. I really started to play just with 24. This might explain my lack on skills and gaming knowledge. Have to catch up what I missed in the past. Edited July 5, 2020 by Falcom Knight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've finished I, II, IV, V, and XI. An odd selection to be sure, I should go back to working on VII, I have a hard time playing it (not because I dislike it, I love it) but because it's such a long game. And I originally emulated it, but lost my data halfway through due to computer stuff. And with it being such a long game it's hard to go back into it since that's dozens and dozens of hours lost. I do own it on 3DS now and have played some of it, but yea, might get back ot that soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interdimensional Observer Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Fire Emblem 7 in an Easter basket. A green N64 for Christmas at maybe age 5, with a subscription to Nintendo Power with a wrestling game on the cover. I forget if my 64 came with a DK64 banana-colored controller or if that was one of my grandma's 64s (she had a standard gray-black one and the Hey You Pikachu! variant).

Although, my first DQ game was IX, but the cartridge was stolen. That happened years ago. I might eventually get VII for the 3DS. I got VIII on mobile and later on in 3DS too.
