Peak cope.

its not really about your age more about having less and less time to play those games while maintaining your life and other duties, it hurts to know but it is what it is

Pretty much. The whole "I can't play gud anymore, im too old, muh reflexes" cope is sad.
You can say that when you're 70 and got arthritis and alzheimers and shit. Until then, you're just blowing smoke up your own ass.

I just don't have the mental energy to play vidya and sleeping doesn't fix it.

>>713241314
Stay mad.

>>713240429 (OP)
I'm almost 40 and still doing just fine, what are you niggers doing to your bodies that make you this bad?

>>713243798
just what you did to yours in your 20s and early 30s, Kaleb

>>713240429 (OP)
Skill issue.

I'm in my 40s. I couldn't play fighting games worth a shit before because I didn't want to take the time to learn movesets or focus and play attention.

I couldn't fucking kill anything in Sekiro because I "didn't have the reaction time" to parry.

Just fucking pay attention, focus and practice, practice, practice. Stop using age as an excuse to give up and be shit.

Look up Grandma Moses. She didn't start painting until she was 78. Are you really going to let a woman more than double your age be more successful at picking up new skills than you?

>>713243798
same, just need a little coffee and then im good to go

athletes still dominate against normal people in most sports past their 30s, its about consistency and continual training.
young people soak up more information and learn faster but older people can do the same granted it takes more time and commitment.
You aren't getting worse because of genetics, its because you don't put enough time or energy into improving. Whether its worth doing that it dependent on the person

>get fucking wasted drunk

>too drunk to give a shit to tryhard or get good rankings
>clean the floor with everybody else
>continue to play like shit when sober

Why does it have to be this way?

>>713243194
yes, as you get old you realize that games aimed at children is where the most fun is and it's double fun playing them with your children

>>713240429 (OP)
skill issue, i still compete at the highest level and I just turned 30, in fact my reaction speed and shot accuracy feels higher than ever, I am usually shooting equal to pros in terms of damage/accuracy, you were likely never good to begin with, the competition has just gotten better

>always prefered strategic games
>power keeps growing with every year as wisdom increases

>>713240429 (OP)
>29.9
>play j-action games and beatemups the same way as always
Feels good

OP is a faggot, what a fucking surprise.

30 is a magical number. You are the best version of yourself and nothing will come close to it.

>>713244181
You're thinking about her when sober.
