I used to think this was egregious too but thinking it over it kind of makes sense when almost all of them take place in a medieval setting. Yakuza is like one of the few that doesn't and they have more realistic ages. --- Cherish me ... Copied to Clipboard!

This is why I appreciate Galuf from Final Fantasy V and Rowen from Tales of Xillia so much, they're both actual old men and they're just as badass as the youngsters they travel with.

A very common theme in Japanese media and literature is the young being the only ones able to fight whatever the system or problem is because they know or understand something the older generations don't. A lot of this goes back to bakumatsu, ideas like kontozai ni tsujiru and continued on to this day. Makes a lot of sense if you look at their society and last 170 years of history. --- I work all day, and get half-drunk at night. ... Copied to Clipboard!

WesternMedia posted... I used to think this was egregious too but thinking it over it kind of makes sense when almost all of them take place in a medieval setting. Yakuza is like one of the few that doesn't and they have more realistic ages. Low life expectancy in medieval times was caused by sky high infant mortality rates, not by people being ancient at age 40. People who made it past their first year or so tended to live into their 60s or 70s on average, younger than now but not by anywhere near enough to make JRPG ages make sense. --- Meow! ...

People who made it past their first year or so tended to live into their 60s or 70s on average, younger than now but not by anywhere near enough to make JRPG ages make sense.I'm fairly certain working age people (which started younger) also died a lot more due to unhealthier and unsafer working conditions, killings and executions being more common, and medicine being worse. Though I can see if someone makes it past 50 that they would live to about the same as the average life expectancy in present day. --- Cherish me ... Copied to Clipboard!
