What is the average age on this instance? Maybe I was too old already when Minecraft came out, but I thought it was a game for 10 year olds.

Me and my army buddies all discovered the alpha version of Minecraft in 2011 while deployed in Afghanistan. One of our Intel guys brought it back on an external drive from R&R and we all installed it on our laptops. Soon, the entire camp was playing it when off shift, including old, crusty infantry platoon sergeants. It's an ageless, timeless kind of game. Like someone else said, it's like building stuff with Legos.

I'm 40. Minecraft is so good. I play harbored games mostly like Elite Dangerous and a ton of RTS or FPS games. Minecraft is different but it's magic.

I'm 50. But my kids of 9 and 10 are also on the server.

If it was a game for 10 years old, and it's been 10 years from release, then we get 20 years olds :) Also its like Lego, anyone can enjoy it

You're never too old to start enjoying things. It's nice to escape from being an adult for a while and just have fun.

I see old people on the minecraft server but young ones too :) You are welcome ;)

Hi5! I'm 45 and I have played MC from the beginning, still play it more than any other game. Now my little kids play it with me and it's their favorite too.
