[Spicy Serious]

I do want to throw in my two cents that, older characters aren’t less valid than younger characters. Pasta is right, Mature Adult and even Elder is far from the end.

Years/large chunks of time passing without you doing anything can be demotivating, and even just hitting Mature Adult and realizing you didn’t really manage to do anything with your time as a young character can seriously hit your mood. Because while age dr…certainly isn’t much of a problem imo, the passage of time will change a character. A young adult and a mature adult are different characters.

Buuut, the only thing stopping you from enjoying that mature adult character is yourself. Leaving Camino aside, back in e3 I played Ragnhild, a character who did Jack of all in her youth, but when she hit her 50’s and 60’s her faction saw a few renewals in life, and over time she managed to earn many perks, a funni stance I never used well, blessing, got a fun moment app that scarred her injuries and gave her cosmic ascension so she could set an example for the next generation. She even averted a few traitor plots by being the local grandma apparently(?).

You might miss out on things. But you’re the one in control of your experience. And year change or no year change don’t let imaginary number ticking up demotivate you.
