Hello... I have been looking at some of the groups that post they are for mature ( which I read as people over 35 with jobs/mortgages/kids/etc.. ) I'm looking for a group of players that are closer to my age ( which happens to be 44 ). I don't mind playing with 20 somethings but that is a pretty big gap and when it comes to discussing things out of game, there is going to be a disconnect ( i.e. tastes in music, life experiences..... ) I've been a member of a COD clan for a while that focuses on 30+ yr old players and I'm looking for something similar with Diablo 3.
A little gaming background on me.. my first real online gaming experience was Diablo when I was in my early 20's and IT WAS ADDICTIVE ! I spent many nights up until 2 am when I had to be at work by 7 am... it was brutal but I loved it! After about a year went by I just needed to give it up because it was really getting out of hand. I played Quake 2 for about a year when it came out. After that, I switched over to a mac so my gaming on a computer stopped and I played on my Genesis... I pretty much skipped the entire playstation1-2 and xbox era completely and didn't really play games at all for that stretch of time. Around 2008, I bought the Wii and when BlackOps came out I tried it.. LOVED IT! Even more than the game, I loved playing with motion controls... it makes more sense to my older brain than thumbpads do ;). This one of the reasons Diablo 3 is appealing to me so strongly. It's simple, fast paced and very addictive :Thumbs Up:
I skipped over diablo 2 ( computer wouldn't have run it properly and I was much more involved with a band at that time and didn't have time for a game like diablo 2. But, now I'm not really playing music too much and my pastimes have again brought me back to gaming. Diablo 3 has been an amazing experience so far but I really only have an ally or two that I play with and I'm looking for others. I take the game serious but not too serious ( i.e. I have little interest in studying the intricacies of stats and all this theorycrafting people talk about ). I am a team oriented player but I might be interested in trying friendly PvP when it's available.. I just want to play, help others and get some help in return and maybe talk about music, life etc. while playing the game... I would like to use some type of voice chat during game because the whole typing thing takes to long ( I have Teamspeak and Skype installed on my iphone but can use anything that has an iphone or mac client.... yes I still game with a mac )
So, rather than me hunting around for a group of players that fit into my "age" group, I thought it would be easier to just be found!
Divine Knights is a group of gamers that focuses on family-oriented team play for mature adults. I'll be honest and say that our gamers that fit the 35+ range are all Stacraft 2 players. However, we do have a large Diablo 3 contingent that are friendly and act accordingly.
Also of note, we have a large community of console gamers for PS3 and X-BOX. Most of our gamers are mature adults, with a few exceptions (some of our members kid's play with the clan).
If this is something you may be interested in, the link to our recruitment page is in the same sub-forum (can't link until 10 posts...). Let me know if you have any questions. Hope you find what you're looking for!
