I'm 53 and have friends of all ages, my nephew plays so I get to have fun with him even though he lives 300 miles away. I'm still learning, one great thing about the Destiny community is how people help each other out in random ways. See someone overwhelmed by enemies? Go and help. Find a loot box? Look around for someone to share it with and so on. I know of players in their 70's us oldies might be slower but we have patience and determination. You are only too old if you want to be otherwise keep playing.
