Characters That Get Older

This would be a very cool thing to put into an MMORPG, what I was thinking was something similar to the way Fable works.

Your character starts the game as a child  around the age of 10-12, and as he gains levels he becomes older, of course this would need to cap off at some point, probably around age 35-45. What do y'all think of this idea?

    It is a good idea if handelled correctly. Fable did have aging but you aged real fast in my opinion. Over all It would be an interesting idea.

    I'd like to have that as an optional feature. It would be very useful for RP. For example, I could activate it on an alt and RP that alt as my main character's child. I can do that now, but the problem is that, currently, I'd have to start RPing the child at an age where they would be physically mature.

    I think the character should have a lifespan in general, his "spirit" eventually dies at like 90 years. It would be cool, when the character is 12-50 he is more of a physical fighter but when it reachers the age of 50 its more magical because it really isn't physically strng enough to handle physical fighting yet. I think it'd be cool but not a lot of people would like it.

    This guy must not know the meaning of "sarcasm", but I am not surprised considering how horrible his spelling is. :)

    I think the physical at first, mental at last is a bad idea, because many players enjoy ranged combat more than melee combat (not the bow)... And not only that but there are lots of monks out there. (so not physical but mentally ingame)

    However they should replace the leveling system with an aging system, so basicly when you 'mastered' your class, you've already had lots of years of experience...


    I decide who lives or who dies!

    Don't try to backtrack on your failed comeback by claiming it was sarcasm... there was nothing remotely sarcastic in your post.

    I think it should be adjustable by the player. Let the player decide how old or young his player looks, and have him able to change it at will.
