The Crimson King Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I'm 17 going on 18 currently, and thought about stopping playing a couple of hours ago. I will still play though, as there will be a sneak peek at our locals this halloween(joy). I just can't wait to see how many noobs will dress up as their favorite YuGiOh characters:lol:.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Nah, you're not too old to play unless you feel like you're too old. *I'm 14, going on 15, and I'm still younger than some guys I know that play it (they're in their 20s and over)* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkest Hour Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 "Children's Card Game" is kind of misleading. In Japan at least' date=' it was made to be marketed to teens (Hence, the overly violent and astonishingly bad Season 0 of the anime). When it got to North America, the distributor evidently thought that with the newly dubbed-down 4Kids version of the Anime, that it would make more sense to market it towards a younger audience. And for some reason, it seems to be marketed to younger and younger people with each passing season... I wonder why... Either way, it's a game of strategy. When it comes to Strategy, there really isn't an age you'll grow out of it, unless it becomes trivially easy. Considering the shifting meta and constant addition of new cards, I doubt yugioh will hit that for a long, long time.[/quote'] They should've never let 4Kids dub down YGO. It made the game a little more...stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmegaWave Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Yugioh is NOT a children's card game. The English Yugioh anime made it seem that way. I'm 16 and Yugioh is a big part of my life. Not just as a game, but for educational values. Yugioh teaches Math (sorta) and strategy. It keeps your mind sharp because most of the time, you'll need to rethink your strategies on the flip of a coin or roll of a die. I actually believe that part of my success in school is partly because I play Yugioh. People need to stop being bastards to people that play Yugioh. My opinion: People only say Yugioh is stupid or for kids because they suck at it.....or their parents never loved them enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesCrow Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Almost 18, which is about average. There are 3 people at my locals that blow my mind. 1 is an overweight 45ish woman. One is a redneck-looking (not actually a redneck) dude that is about 40. And one is an older gentlemen, prolly around 60. And they all know how to play well, and really enjoy it. So hey. To each his(or her) own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's aimed at kids too poor to afford it. The generic populace that even makes the sales for yugioh cards are 16+ year olds who has jobs to buy cards. There's no way in hell most parents would spend 80 to 500 dollars on a card game for their kids, unless they're playing it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hydra of Ages Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 The most recent advert I saw for the newest starter decks blew my mind. I mean, the earlier commercials certainly insulted my intelligence, but THESE ones seemed to think that "FLASH FLASH FLASH! EPILEPTIC COLORS! KIDS KIDS KIDS! BUY BUY BUY" was the most effective way to convey their message. I think they must either honestly think their primary and most profitable demographic is 9 year old kids (Sure... because nine year old kids have money to burn on an excessively expensive card/strategy game). So you really can't blame those who think that it's a children's game, though it isn't. Therefor? the fault lies with 4Kids/Upperdeck/whoever commissions the commercials. I'm 13 and have grown out of it.Having a Life beats card games.No offence. Aww, how cute. The 13 year old seems to think that quitting a hobby automatically earns you a life. Actually, it just makes you bored; having free time doesn't necessarily mean people want to spend it with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesCrow Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I am sick and tired of people assuming that "lolyugioh, you have no life". Yeah? And I'm sure you have other hobbies/interests. Ones that you are involved in, just as much as people are into yugioh. Just because someone enjoys something remotely nerdy it doesn't equate to not having a life. Infact, that is just idiots trying to sound cool with the whole "I have a life". Life has whatever meaning YOU PERSONALLY put on it, and to yours only. Don't try and decide the meaning of other people's lives by judging it against yours. Some people are really caught up in their jobs, sports, internetz, ygo, filmmaking, or hunting. Life is however you spend it. How would you define it? "Hanging with your friends and going to the movies and getting drunk together" sounds like YOU have no life to me <______________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
