MODERATORS
Adults were fans of Minecraft when it came out since there was really no other sandbox game like it at the time. There were precious few sandbox games at the time period.
Oh yeah, I don't disagree it has had a large following since it released. I was just highlighting that even if a majority of the player base was 5-15 on release, they'd be 20-30 now. So why target just kids.
Sorry, we were in agreement. I'm saying there was always an adult market so you're right.
