Saleh, do gaming w I'm still in full denial, personally.

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.

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.

Late 20s: You realize gaming from the couch is getting difficult because the distance to the TV is too blur without glasses

Mid 30s: No longer able to consume infinite packets of instant ramen. In fact it kinda tastes nasty. Halo 3 at Legendary still tho.

Early 40s: Quake 3 Arena and Half Life 2 now give you motion sickness. Can still get by Halo at Heroic.

Late 40s: The 2ft distance to your monitor now looks blur without glasses. not getting past gold or silver in ranked Overwatch

Mid 50s: Gonna need reading glasses to play. Clair Obscur difficulty now set to Story.

v4ld1z,

Honestly, as long as you’re still having fun and enjoying game, I don’t see an issue here. Sure, in some areas it might have gotten difficult, but if you’re able to adjust

vivalapivo,

I’m in my 30 and I fucking can’t beat Golgra at medium. Rrrrraaaaggeeee

mudmaniac,

I’m stymied at Renoir at the Paintress’ monolith. My pride is such that I rather take a break from the game than go down to Story.

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.

Day 360 of sticking with anything is impressive. Thanks for sticking with this and posting content for us to consume. I appreciate it and hope you have something special planned for your anniversary.

I was never that good…and then I got old. Still enjoy gaming though.

Old_Bald_Bloke,

Same here, mid 50s, was never better than average - I’m now mediocre

I was going to type it out but realized i could use fetch in my terminal to produce better results than anything i could type out. So here it is:

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.

yermaw, do gaming w I'm still in full denial, personally.

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.

Demdaru, do gaming w I'm still in full denial, personally.

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?

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.

v4ld1z,

Those people are cracked tho

Now this has been rather disproved, do we think we could retract the post? It’s probably done harm already but we can at least acknowledge it’s no longer accurate.

hornedfiend,

Can you elaborate on that please?

ZombiFrancis,

Is Flayra not pursuing legal action against Krafton over this?

echodot,

What do you mean this has been disproven?

Can you provide some context. A link maybe?

If you visit the official website of krafton www.krafton.com/en/ you should get this pop up:

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/9ead99b0-e7ef-4aac-9fb1-52b814f8d7b1.png

Basically, Krafton claims that the 3 founders they fired did not do their job in overseeing the project, leading to a game without any direction. Since the game would not meet their standards, they decided to rework a lot and push the release date back.

This is an official statement of a company, meaning they can be (and if I read it correctly have been) sued for slander should they lie here. So a legal department looked over this and decided “Yep, we can claim that they abandoned responsibilities, we can prove that in court”. Whether or not this is actually true or just an attempt to regain public opinion, it’s a real shitshow.

MotoAsh,

Yea but what are executive responsibilities to a company? They generally are not creative and dynamic positions and instead focus on producing results for the corporate body. I could readily see Krafton firing them for trying to make a fun and compelling game as opposed to a profitable game ripe for DLC, for example. Of course they’d couch such money grubbing expectations in to language of the managerial class…

Hawk,

I wouldn’t call this proof. Krafton is known for pulling stuff like this.

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!
