Have you ever stopped to think who exactly produces this entertainment? That's right! Adults! I mean think about Stefan and Unix. They are adults, and yet Stefan makes a game for teenagers. Why? Why doesn't he make a game for adults? Maybe because he likes the types of games teenagers play.

I don't see how it's weird at all. All the guys that made Pokemon are like 25+. Yet they play it and work on it more than any kid does. Who makes all childrens cartoons? Adults. Who makes all childrens games? Adults. Who makes the clothes, toys, stories? Adults.

I don't see how age has anything to do with gaming. It's not like once you reach a certain age, you have to stop playing videogames, and start raising a family and going to work all day, and not have any fun.
You also have to realize that the average gamer nowadays is 18+. I'm not sure if that's true for pc gaming, but Graal would have a much larger playercount than it has now, you would see that that number would hold some water.
