and don't get me wrong, I love turn based RPGs. I just went through 86 hours of Xenoblade after all and never once minded fighting enemies.
that's why I don't consider age a big part of this
I can still play old RPGs I've played a bunch, I can still play some new ones and like them, I can still go back and play SH and so far like that. it's just the FF series I can't play anymore.
