Tfw you're getting noticeably worse in all video games

>tfw you're getting noticeably worse in all video games
Is it time to find a new hobby?

I think the only time I had a positive K/D ratio in an online shooter was SOCOM 2

Barring that, I always have a < 30% win rate in fighting games. I've never been good at video games.

Worse reaction time? If I recall correctly, it's all slowly downhill from ~24 onward.
You can still play games, you'll just never be as good at twitch shooters and the like as you once were.

>last year i was decent at twitch shooters was blops 2
>all the fun shootans came out last year
>never been good at fighting vidya
at least i have RTS, strategy, and assortment of RPGs to waste my time now

are these kinds of movies any good? ive never really watched any
any suggestions? what are they called?

Damn im 23 and im not asian, There no point in playing if I know i can never be good. If I cant talk shit and back it up its not worth it.

genre is called "chink films that faggot hipsters overhype"

this one is called The Last Samurai starring tomcruise

At least in competitive games, being good it's more about the knowledge you have of the game than reaction times.

Knowing how that 0.2 sec cooldown buff makes a character now way more powerful than others, if the games has items/bonuses you know what works and what not, you know how most players react when entering the room/executing an attack/ambushing/moving their troops/farming/doing a combo and etc.

TLDR: Learning the game better than the palm of your hand will make a top player in all relevant competitive games out there in this moment.

its called seven samurai and it 3h 28m long. never watch it tho

Good thing being a tactician only improves with age.

>VN love interest is used goods.

I don't know that feel, I've always sucked in all games.

I'm 27 and I'm still pretty good. I don't play much shooters but when I do my K/D is 4.0+.

I'm better at action games or stuff like For Honor though.

I think I got better with age, though I always had very good reflexes.

What do you mean by "these kinds of movies"? Do you mean Kurosawa movies? Japanese movies? Old movies?

Anyway this one in particular is alright but gets a lot of its' credit because of the time it was made, which is totally fair, but most likely won't blow your mind today. You can pass it.

It hurts.

I'm so good at battlefield but only because most normies try to play it either too much like CoD or too much like squad.

Any other shooter, I fucking suck at now. Hell, even splatoon.

It really hurts.

>tfw 30 years old and still 215ms reaction time to visual stimuli
not amazing, but at least average

why make this a gif?

depends on the game
i was never really good at tactical games but i still enjoy them

have their clothes flowing in the wind for added mood

Good enough to drive, good enough to play vidya. What you lack in reactions, you make up for in tactical prowess and years of experience. Predict your enemy's movements, don't react to them. Do this and you will fight with the might of a man half your age.

>playing vidya
>die eventually
>try to get to where I died to make progress
>die at a stage earlier than I did before
>agitation at dying so often only makes my performance worse
>now I'm dying embarrasingly close to the starting point
>STILL haven't gotten as far as I did the first time

Literally. Every. Fucking Game.

I thought this was only me.

Only guy to get worse through experience

That's gamer fatigue. It's best to just take a couple of minutes to rest, if not stop playing altogether.
Problem I find with getting older is that I fatigue faster and have trouble getting back to a relaxed state where I start doing well again.

Stopped playing DS2 because of this, the game was shit anyway

I feel like Dark Souls is a particularly bad series for this since it depends on very slow, methodical progress on the part of the player. You spend a lot of time looking at your sorroundings and anticipating ambushes the first time you go through an area, and then when you die you're in such a scramble to get your souls back that you end up falling for all kinds of cheap tricks that you managed to avoid the first time.

You're not getting worse, you're just getting less patient, don't have as much time to practice.

That and the next generation is getting better (if you're playing online). They weren't going to suck forever.

This. People don't seem to understand that you use your focus on doing things and you need a couple of time to recover it. Even if you just stay sit watching series for hours you end up slipping out and missing some things.

I'm a lot better now that I'm 30 than I ever was and I started when I was 4 with Mega Man 2/Adventure of Link.

It's too bad that I was never really that good to begin with and the improvement is not that drastic (Teen to adult years).

You just need to take a break, calm down and relax.

A lot of people don't know this surprisingly and let their frustration get the better of them.

>not having add
>not using gaming/watching series to get into hyperfocus mode
can literally keep at it for 12 hours straight when I'm in that state and recall everything perfectly after

You are not getting into some focus mode, you are just using your focus that you didn't use on your life into games and series.
