I played BG for the first time when it was released in 1998 and it was my introduction to both AD&D and "real" CRPG's, and it changed everything.

48. Is there a prize for the oldest? First RPG was Pool of Radiance on my first computer, a Commodore 64. I stil have the hand drawn maps on graph paper packed away in a box somewhere. Favourite RPG, Planescape:Torment.

 

48 just around the corner...I'll take second prize!

So many great games...but if I was going to point to one game that got me hooked and will always be numero uno....Fallout. Still have the original packaging, manual, inserts etc.....did that with all my games!

All theBalders Gate games , Planescape..Icewind Dale1&2 are also on my faves list amonth others...Black Isle rocked back in the day!

Favourite games are Planescape Torment (just finished it again for the 13th time) and Breath of Fire 2 (I've learned a lot of my basic English with this game...)

 

But I also like -a lot- all the infinity engine based games.

16 here. I really hope this games appeals to my age bracket however unlikely it is. I've played Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 as well Icewind Dale 1.

I'm 18 years old. My favourite passtime is disagreeing with my short-sighted friends over which is better: BG or Dragon Age. Oh, well...

I just turned 24 few days ago.

 

My favorite RPG, and game all together, is and will always be: Planescape: Torment.

 

Close second would be Witcher series, after that infinity engine RPGs.

Older then 25 and PS: Torment

33. Favorite game of all time is the first Fallout.

I'm 16.

My favorite RPGs are BG2, PS:T and NWN2.

Fallout 1 and 2 were also great, I loved how Obsidian gave Bethesda's Fallout so much more depth in New Vegas too.

28 laps around the sun.

 

Too indecisive to pick favorite things. I like variety.

I like how "Above 25" is apparently the hinterlands according to the poll creator.

What did you consume in the preceding ~750 years though?

 

That is a good question, Humanoid, and one that I shall partially answer.

 

The early years of my life are a secret. However, I began feasting on ridiculous gamers in the late 1970's. I happened upon some heavily bearded students from the Society for Creative Anachronism. Ah, UCLA in 1978 / 79? The souls I harvested there were some of the sweetest. Anyhow, these guys were beating each other up with wooden swords and talking in fakespeare. As I'd actually fought in a number of battles myself in the High-Medieval period I detested there pathetic attempts at emulation and gorged upon them.

 

I can hear one of them wailing in my phylactery like, right now. Shush, little one.

 

Then came the Renaissance Fayre people. Man, they make promancers look like Hunter S Thompson. I cut a swathe through the Midwest in the mid 1980's, only stopping to devour the occasional 2nd Ed AD&D players at GenCon.

 

Then... oh my... then came the LARPers. They were delicious, their lameness was like sweet butter. I would dress as a Mind Flayer (well actually in my real form I look like one anyway) and suck out their souls. Have you noticed there are virtually no LARPers left nowadays? That's because I ate them all.

 

Now it is promancers and Biowarians. Oh yes. They will be mine.

Im 18, began with neverwinternights and morrowind . Recently i played fallout 1 and 2 :D

28.

 

What's this the poll options though?

 

If it was me I'll probably do something like...

1. Under 20,
   
2. Under 20-30,
   
3. Under 30-40,
   
4. Over 40
   

 

And expecting most people to be in 2 or 3.

29.

planescape torment

So 67% so far in the poll are over 25. Not too surprised.
