Wizard 101 is a stellar example in every way of what a MMO should be. Unique combat system, full voice-acting of every quest, crafting, housing, pet training, armor and gear skinning options, fantastic mounts, fantastic PVP; even a kid-friendly auction house.
That KingsIsle gives us all this plus a kid-friendly environment as well as the most flexible Sub/P2Own model around is just nothing short of astonishing. Here's to many more fun and successful years for Wizard 101.
What a silly question. Playing games is inherently behavior most often associated with kids than adults. That's like asking a MLB player if he minds getting paid millions to play a kid's game.
My answer, of course, is yes I would and do play games that are marketed mainly for kids. Wizard 101 is a very well-crafted MMO. It has features that put many mainstream MMO's to shame and does it while keeping a kid-friendly environment. I've also dabbled with Free Realms and while I don't play it much anymore, I did splurge for their $40 lifetime membership deal a while ago.
