That's more true than most here understand.You're underestimating a kid's resilience. It's busy, tired adults who need things dumbed down.

Do none of you idiots remember what being a child was like/have no direct experience with children? Tbh most western crpgs can't really be enjoyed until your early teenage years.
It's not just a matter of content. It's also about what a child can even understand and engage with. The whole mood of cynicism and rebellion, the sense of progress and technology having come to rot, the strange mixture of the punk and noir aesthetic that you find in cyberpunk--this isn't in my mind really appreciable by children (nevermind if it's appropriate). Sure they can watch movies with these kinds of settings, but mostly because they're pretty to look at and the action is exciting. But reading a book or playing an rpg in this sort of setting? Cmon. Also horror is a complete non-sequitor. Those sorts of primal fears I think are universally communicable (again, nevermind if it's appropriate).The HobbitThey're children's books.
On second thought that may not have been the best example. However, In the 2nd grade, just about every kid and I loved the Scary Stories trilogy with all those gruesome pictures by Stephen Gammell (image search to check 'em out). Shadowrun Returns is certainly less gruesome than those are.

Incidentally, I checked out the google app rating for SR and Dragonfall and of course they're rated Teen (for some reason HBS never bothered with the ESRB). If the 8 year old is allowed to watch PG-13 movies, she can play it just fine.
Maybe something like Baldur's gate could work for a child, but even then you'd have to handhold and turn down the difficulty to the point where they may as well not be playing it.
No, you didn't. I doubt you do now.I understood this fine when I was 8 years old.

You haven't rly responded to what I'm saying. Steampunk isn't cyberpunk.
And even ignoring that, I don't think you fully understand what I mean by tone and mood, or else you wouldn't bother to make the comparison between any conventional jrpg and something like shadowrun.
Alright, you seduced me. The pixel art is fucking gorgeous.
Legend of Mana. My gf loves this game, so clearly it has an appeal to women. Plus, you can play together with her as the game allows two players.
My first cRPG experience was Mandragore on a C64. I only watched my cousin playing this game, but it was a direct blow for me. So I was 11 or perhaps 12, I can't remember exactlyDo none of you idiots remember what being a child was like/have no direct experience with children?

She's turning 8. The only game she has significant playtime in is Minecraft.

I find it crazy that people still have the raiding mindset when they think of mmorpgs. I play them as single player games solo. When my kids actually play a game instead of watching other people play games online they always play with people regardless if it is a single player or multiplayer game. They are always talking on that fucking headset. When I play an mmorpg I ignore everyone and never talk. When I played mmorpgs with my oldest daughter I turn the chat box off and she only plays with me and communicates by talking to me. The only time this was every an issue was in Tera since 90% of the community seems to be dressed as whore children. Little girls dressed as prostitutes. It is weird. But in most mmos I can trn all the communications off so if she plays alone no one can communicate with her. She will never see them speak or hear them.
A ton of mmorpgs are fun if played as a single player game. And most of those are now free to play now.
King's bounty armores princess.
