the average "older, wiser, more mature and intelligent" party member in JRPGs is somewhere between 28 and 35 years old
Compared to teenagers, they ARE wiser, more mature, and intelligent. And old.Can you imagine being 30 having to chaperone some 14-17 year olds? You'd feel out of place, but you'd say some common sense and their minds would be blown.
>>739345871>and their minds would be blownwhen is the last time you interacted with an actual human teenager? That's pure fantasy.They'd be more likely to say some deranged shit like "unc strait bussin fr"
>>739345529Sex with Judith.
>>739346920this, Repede is so lucky.
>>739347069you want to fuck repede?
yeah that is weird that they treat Raven like he’s super old when he appears to only be 35.It’s almost as if…
>>739349151he literally has grey hair
>>739345529>older, wiser, more mature and intelligentliterally me
>>739349482his hair is blackhe may have had a streak of grey when he was in the schwan getup but I’m not sure.And even then, that’s kind of the point I was making. He’s actually much older than the game would have you believe, so using him as an example of the trope OP is talking about doesn’t make sense if you actually played the game
>>739349984>He’s actually much older than the game would have you believehe is actually chronologically 35you're misunderstanding something about his story if you think he's any older than that. Or you think past events in the game took place much longer ago. The "Great War" that everyone acts like is ancient history only happened 10 years prior to the game's story.
look up the age of any character from a JRPG that you thought was "old" and you'll be devastatedVan is only 27
>>739350439not a single female character 25 or older without "she is le infinity years old" cheating
>>739350487In most stories, the female characters are the goal. No one wants to settle with an expired womb.
>>739350260>The "Great War" that everyone acts like is ancient history only happened 10 years prior to the game's story.wtf really? The game made it seem like it was way longer than that. Like at those ruins where you run into Nan and the canyon later in the game with all the old weaponry
>>739350359>tfw now far closer to sephirots age than the actual protags of FFXII think.. it's time to quit vidya...
>>739350719I thought Judith was 30s and really liked her for that.Pascal, on the other hand, I thought was 16. She's a fucking quirk chungus womanchild.
>old fucks thinking 24 isn't oldFucking grim
>>739350801I think it's the BOTW thing where there was a super ancient war a thousand years ago but then also a recent one and it's annoyingly difficult to keep track of it
>>739350918You'll be there too one day
>>739350873dude sephiroth isn't even 30
>>739350918If you're old enough to use this site without getting banned, you're too old to think 24 is old.
