It's coming back by popular demand! The Bell Tree World Championship! After three years, our grand gaming event will return on May 18th with ten Nintendo Switch games to play, both competitively and casually. Signups for the event are now open as explained in the new Bell Tree World Championship 2024 thread!
I mean, I assume they are suppose to be our age but I'm in my 30s in real life and Raven does not look like she's in her 30s, she looks like she's 12. And I'm sure that there are child labor laws that are being broken somewhere. We are still getting gifts from in game Mom for crying out loud.
Another random thread, but it's asking a question so really all that random if you think about it.
I always assumed they were adults since they've moved away from home and you get letters from your parents which occasionally reminisce about when you were a kid. We're probably just supposed to project whatever age onto them though (so me being an adult=thinks of my character as one as well. I tend to think of my pkmn characters that way too cuz I don't wanna be a 10 yr old LOL)
Well you're moving to a new town and are now the mayor of said town...I'd assume just from looks the character is supposed to be 14-18? But I don't think they intended for you to think of the mayor as a certain age, I think they intended YOU to superimpose yourself into being in the game. Besides, there's plenty of ways to make yourself look older with accessories and whatnot. So the default characters seem to be in mid to late teens, but I think the game creators purposefully made the age ambiguous
As old as you wish to believe them to be. There really is no set age given to them... Other than upon becoming mayor, they do speak as if you are youth to replace Tortimer. So, at least much younger than him.
I always figured like 18, cause it's you leaving home on your own for the first time, and your mom still writes you and sends you stuff (but never really any money, thanks mom) and I'd like to think they wouldn't let a child run a town.
By looks? We are 12.
People call you young. We are 18-20.
Kapp'n flirts with female characters. Kapp'n looks 40 or so. We are 30-50.
The youngest mayor in the US was 18, and mayors that would be considered "young" are 30-32 and under. We are 18-32.
I think that they are whatever age you want them to be. I have always played as myself, so I have always imagined my character to be an extension of me. I guess that is why I always thought of the human characters in AC games as having just moved out of home for the first time. That would explain why you still get letters from your parents occasionally.
I think the age is different for every person. But personally I think mine's about 12 ? Characters in ACNL look a bit older than the ones in older versions.
