I don't like that they turn old and grey at the tender age of 45! Their 'old' head shouldn't kick in til at least 50, if not older.

I think they get old and die earlier in the game than in real life simply because you have to wait for them to die to continue the game (the single Worst feature of VF imho).

VF 2 really needs a granny flat attached to the house so the grandparents can live on with their children...I feel so morbid just waiting for them to die...! sick frown

I gave one of my oldies an energy drink, thinking she'd speed up for a bit. Unfortunately, she continued to walk at a snail's pace although her status said she was "Hyper!"

Yes, the little people age much too fast! Mine were nearly competely gray or bald at 40, and they start slowing down shortly after. (Granted I am still playing with ver 1.00.01 and I think I read they live longer in the updated version). My first one died before age 60, and as far as I knew she hadn't recently been ill. Horribly depresing. cry

I tried the same thing and got the same results. Funny to see her moving at a snail's pace yet it says she's "hyper" wasn't it? lol!

What is sad is when a runner hits "old age" and starts walking at a snail's pace.

Man, I am almost 55 & I don't walk as slow as these peeps. In fact, my father who is 80 walks faster then they do. Let's get real here.
