One other point: Deus Ex came out when I was 45. Make of that what you will.

Hello! I'm a game developer and today I turned 45. Some say this is older than the allowed max of 25. Still making games. Still excited about the future. (self-indulgent thready-thread)

I'm 63, youngster - you're in the prime of your development life. Enjoy it. Happy B'day.

Appreciate it. I still have fond memories of being on a (very short) phone interview with you as a 20s idiot trying to pitch my failed first design. My favorite lessons after all these years are the head smacking mistakes. :-)

As a 33 year old trying to make the jump INTO professional game design, this thread is honestly more than a little heartening

Yes! It’s by no means comparable in terms of stature, but I was 44 when Free Realms came out.

@Subnautica
came out when I was 44. I’m more proud of that than our previous games.
