I think Larian got their demographics right.
IF your 40+ you dislike the game. WTF is BG2 ?! WTF is D^D?! Stupid romance cringy telltales wtf???? Gameplay is sloooww...
I'm 52. I like BG3 and I like romance subplots. Guy over the road is younger than me and won't touch any D&D that isn't a board game.
Same, I'm 47 and I like BG3 just fine. I played BG 1 when it came out and still am OK with BG3. I don't think, it's made for younger ages, it's more personal taste.
