I have never been good in FPS when it comes to “both jump around the corner and shoot, who wins?” But i have always been good at: “Where the heck did he come from?! what is this stupid play, this is not the meta!!!” happily frustrating some tryhards. As i get older i can still enjoy that way of playing.
I’ve noticed that with experience comes better predictive play, rather than relying on reaction time.
Play 4x/grand strategy and youllvonly get better as you get older.
You might find yourself playing on slower speeds with rts styles though
Jokes on you, I’ve always been bad at RTS
It’s frustrating because I feel like my skills are actually still improving and better than they used to be but there’s always some 11 yo kid who will absolutely wreck me over and over again to the point where I just quit out of shame.
Priorities change. Now I spend more time working on my house or riding my bike than I do gaming and that is OK. It’s fun to be casual too.
It’s literally the opposite. Platformers, point and click, full 3d and action games.
Wait you mean competitive multiplayer? Well turns out, being a sweaty tryhard after all is not possible for us all.
Particularly because of meta changes, intentionally bad players (think of feeders in moba) and general hostility within a team as soon as one of these gamers show up.
Games are supposed to be a fun pastime, most of the internet treats them as a second job, some people need to be remainded of this simple fact.
But… Why is the logo for this community a Bad Dragon?
I see it as a curved sword handle on top of… idk a set top box 🤣
Beating modders and pros in Halo piece of piss.
Top 0.1% PvP stats in Destiny.
Get a job and a family, get back online and told to kill myself for being so bad.
I was never that good…and then I got old. Still enjoy gaming though.
Same here, mid 50s, was never better than average - I’m now mediocre
The best part, I’ve never been competetive so I never tested myself, but sure as hell I am getting currently better at gaming.
Mostly because I am finally fighting off a list of mental shit I picked up growing up so my mind is growing cleaner and hand is becoming more sure. xD

For real?
I never had skills in gaming to begin with, I ain’t good at all. At best I’m OK at strategy, but even then I’m bad. Just give me the computer and let me do DnD
Strategy and turn based RPGs FTW!
My FPS skills have diminished mostly because I stopped playing them. But my souls skills are still good up until I get the adrenaline shakes in PvP.
Those people are cracked tho
Me being terrible at games now is because I am old and can’t sink the same time into it. But I beat Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on NES. Do I really need to prove myself anymore?
That deserves a medal as far as I’m concerned.
I am just going to frame your reply. Thank you.
