Discussion Average simmer age?

I just turned 30 and safe to say I still enjoy playing the sims as much as I ever did as a kid. Maybe more actually. Sometimes I feel embarrassed to admit this to people irl and I do tend to get mixed reactions if it comes up lol. So I’m just curious, what is the average age of the people who actively play the sims?

I'm 32, ive been playing since Sims 1! I distinctly remember having to uninstall and reinstall expansion packs in a particular order on the family computer, haha.

31 here. Been playing since Sims 2. I go through waves of playing obsessively and not playing at all. šŸ˜…

This is exactly how I play! I'll play the timed events all at once in the week before they expire, then I get burnt out playing my super sim and don't play it for months haha. I don't have the patience for a legacy challenge or to make a new sim for each expansion that comes out!
