>be me, 35 years old>zoomer nephew (16) sees me playing a game>"Dude. What the fuck is wrong with your reaction speed is so slow. You reactions are slow and clunky, totally like a bot">me: "Shut up, my reaction speed is fine">open human benchmark to measure my reaction speed>320ms average reaction speed>his is 180msNo fucking way... I used to have great reaction speed in my 20s, like 160msWhat happened?
>>739009530>What happened?You got old
how would u know, human benchmark didnt even exist when you were in ur 20s
>>739009530>16>zoomerAnon, zoomies all have kids now
>>739009616I'm only 35, dude
Soillennials really can't handle not being the main characters anymore kek
>>739009530idk, I'm 34 and this is my result on my first tryI'm not fit and I sleep like shit too
>>739009627Hello?
>>739009627We had reaction speed human benchmark threads on /v/ back in 2008, zoomzoom
>>739009654Yes, that's oldAs zoomers say, you've reached the "unc status"
>>739009654That's retiree age in gaming years
>>739009818Daigo is 44 and he still rocks
>>739009530>160msIt was never this. Unreactable overhead is like 14f or like 230ms.
>>739009530I'm older than you. You can't blame your age. Get your health together. Start exercising. Play fighting games.
>>739009530>what happenedIt didnt happen.
>>739009845See >>739009862
>>739009862>>739009880This isn't your reaction speed in a game. This is your ability to do this single heavily anticipated exercise with nothing else happening.
>>73900953030 year old unc here, mine is still 200ms
You can still have fun and action when you're old
>>739009963Yes, but given enough time with a game, shit becomes muscle memory and that reaction time edges back towards what you see in a benchmark, because that three step task has been honed into a single function that your brain executes
>>739010258True 50/50 is like 220-250f reaction and that's just adjusting the stick. If required input is more complex or visually ambiguous, reaction time gets slower.
>>739009530there is no way you have 320, that is senile old man territory i call bs
>>739009963that's offset by the fact that a lot of things in game don't require you to react in a single frame like human benchmark does
>multiplayerslop
Go see a doctor
>>739009840
i'm 35 and my speed is 200 ms on averagebut i play fightans regularly
>>739010734No way
>>739010734to be fair a majority of fighting game players are old men
I'm 44 and had a second puberty a couple years ago. I think my reaction times are actually speeding up. When something falls off the counter or a shelf I can grab it out of the air so fast that it throws my muscle out of whack and it aches for a minute.
>>739010802200ms is grandpa daigo tiersee >>739010734
>>739010967Lmfao, I'm 42, a cancer patient, and lost an eye and I can do this without throwing out my muscles lol
>>739011297Post eyepatch
>>739009530my reaction speed has always yo-yo'd between 220 and 350 depending on the dayI don't really play multiplayer games so I don't really care
>>739009530This except the zoomer is a girl and I fuck them
>35>36>42I can't imagine the fucking despair being on this site and that age
I'm 36, although I got this result nowdays I feel like a dinosaur in FPS games.
>>739012901And where do you plan to go at that age?The internet is crumbling around us. 4chan is the last bastion and honestly its falling to pieces too. If this place goes, I probably just stop using the internet entirely.
>>739009530you think you can do better at a test you never knew it existed before?Also who said you can't improve your times and do better, competitive players have way better reaction time than your average super zoomer.
>>739012964>And where do you plan to go at that age?Outside>b-but the norma-I don't care
>>739013359reaction time is 99% genetics, extensive training will get you 20-30ms faster at best
>>739013469>OutsideAre you already going outside in your free time and plan on keeping doing it?
>>739009654You're literally at the threshold
>>739009530you’re 35 and your nephew is 16?how old was your sibling when they had the kid?
>>739009530fucking another god damn demoralization threadcan you niggers stop it already for fuck sakes
>>739013469Obviously I meant online, where are you going to go online.Or you're going to abandon the internet like I plan to as wellLooks like we share a lot more in common then you think.
>>739011297post glass eye
>>739012901>I can't imagine the fucking despair being on this site and that agethe fuck? I've been here since 2007 and 34 now. Where else am I gonna go? there isn't really any place on the internet where I can call people retards. You get banned on Reddit for calling people faggots or retards. 4chan is the only place left.
>>739013359>competitive players have way better reaction time than your average super zoomer.Super zoomers ARE the competitive players you're talking about
>>739013498if you lost quick reaction time because of age you can get it back with practice.
>>739009530>letting your nephew (16) talk to you (35) like thatI think there's a bigger issue than reaction speed in here.
>>739013596like 18
>>739009530>I used to have great reaction speed in my 20s, like 160msNo you didn't.
>>739013896Yes I didIf /v/'s archives from 2009 where still up I could find posts I made showing off back then
>>739013854i'm using the term "super zoomer" sarcastically, the point is that 160ms is not impressive is just average and OP is a weak ass bitch nigga.
>>739009654i'm 38 and i started boxing when i was 34, been into fitness and exercise since i was 20. my stamina and endurance are fine but the young guys are so much faster and their reaction speed is so much quicker than mine it's unreal. i get bop bop bopped in sparring by a 19 year old who's on his 3rd month boxing. it's like their fists telepirt to my face and my fists go through their afterimage. reaction time diminishing with age is real manboxing is really fun tho i recommend it
Just got 342ms at 37yo, I can beat souls games and shit so I don't give a fuck.
>>739013795>>739012753Waiting for a consult before they decide to remove it.
>>739009530And other retarded posts that didn't happen
>>739009530Tell him to enjoy it while he can because reaction time peaks at 17 and his will be declining next year too lmao
>>739014085Both you and OP have brain damage or some other malady, go see a neurologist.
>>739010734>ignoring the webm shows it's a 2-2 tie and sometimes you do just get read like a book
>>739010734is time to accept daigo was only "good" because he kept choosing evil ryu
>>739009862>Play fighting games.This. Fighting games keep your reaction speed at good levels. Im 35 and I can hit 180ms on average. OP should start playing 3rd strike>>739012918You probably dont give a fuck about the fps games you are playing, you are being distracted by the game's graphics, or life is on your mind and you cant fully focus on that shit you are playing>>739012901I have the same question with the other two oldfags. Where should I go? I dont like normie social media. Also I hate making accounts for social media. I just want to talk my mind with no strings attached. 4chan just works for me, but I guess I should spend less time here, because the treads are always of the same substance give or take, and I have taken all the redpills I could take from this site.
>>739013967>the point is that 160ms is not impressive is just averageIt's not average at all, retardAverage is like 220ms
>>739009530I am in my 50s and my reaction speed is 190ms.All you have to do is do distilled water vast (use your own water distiller, store the water in glass jars, not plastic) for 10-30 days based on how much fat you have to burn.Then buy high quality animal meat and organs, eat them rare.Make bone broth with distilled water in a pressure cooker instant pot and consume it daily.I feel better than when I was in my 30s and had shit diet and condition.
>>739014482no

>>739009530>35Zoomer on zoomer violence
I've always had bad reaction time. I only play strategy and turn based games.
No fucking zoomer even know what that is so nice story broI should know I'm surrounded by them every fucking day. Also reaction time is something you train. My father is 75 and can still do ninja shit like catching shit thrown at him so your story is completely false my guy.
>>739009530You sound like a fat faggot that doesn't exercise. Exercise is proven to improve reaction time. That plus large doses of psilocybin have made my reaction time godlike. I'm 37 and better at games than I've ever been
>>739015236I'm 51 btw
>>739015047I meant to say fast, not vast.>>739015215>Post wrinklesI don't have any, bone broth made with distilled water in a pressure cooker insstant pot is amazing stuff, like a cheat code. I wish I knew about it back when I was in my 20s and started then.You younglings should get your own water distiller and instant pot pressure cooker and start making your own bone broth, it will be one of the best things you do for your health, body and skin.
>>739009530>>me: "Shut up, my reaction speed is fine"Wrong dialog option. Should've told him picrel>>739009642And their kids are still zoomers, and kids of their kids will also be zoomers. Anyone who's younger than me is a zoomer.
>>739015524You really are a grandpa talking about miracle medicine to make you younger and react fasterMy gramps does the same
>That happened
>>739015313>My father is 75 and can still do ninja shit like catching shit thrown at him so your story is completely false my guy.Nah, you just think your father is hot shit because you admire him.Your father would not be able to dodge shit if some young talented boxer like Logan Paul sparred with him
>human benchmark>not considering input lag>not considering what monitor he's usingshit's a scam, dodging punches is the real human benchmark
>>739015524>bone broth
>>739015047>distilled water in a pressure cookerThere are easier ways to damage your pressure cooker.
>>739009791>UncI learned this idiom with Daigo Vs MenaRD fight.I felt old as fuck after that ( 40yo btw).Let me try this https://humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime>245msUsing touch screen, I think mouse should be faster.
>>739009530Best way to keep nurturing your reaction speed even when aging is playing FPS, RTS or any task intensive game.
>>739015835Perhaps you misunderstood.I have a seperate device for making distilled water, which I store in glass jars and drink and use for making bone broth.I soak the grass fed high quality cut bones in my distilled water, let it sit for a bit, then pour all of it in the instant pot pressure cooker.Then I pressure cook and make bone broth.Not only does this extract more nutrients from the bone, it is also much better for the pressure cooker.I speak from many years of experience.Hope this cleared it up, not really sure why you think distilled water damages my instant pot pressure cooker.>>739015776Bone broth + animal meat and organs eaten rare. This is the best diet you can get. Of course, high quality and grass fed.
>>739015776> Trust all his info from a language modelNTA, but you zoomers are so fucked in the coming years.
>>739009530older people should be trashing kids by thinking, not by abusing reflexesI'm 40

>>739009530>180msHe's also slow as shit for his age, but you're well above where you should be as well if those numbers are even half accurate.Get a healthy amount of sleep without sleep aids if you can manage, don't booze, unfuck your diet while adding maybe a multivitamin without adding any weird shit supplements or peptides, and you should perk up a bit instead of being mentally underwater>>739012901You're here foreverYou'll hear that endlessly, and it's accurate for good reason.As the internet continues to consolidate and become worse with each passing year, this ever declining shithole continues to stand far above most alternatives

too many youngsters on the internet nowadaysi'm 34 and they make me feel oldi wish it was possible to rob them of their youth. Too bad vampirism or whatever retarded satanic ritual epstein and friends do is just bullshiti wish we could harvest this young faggotsmaybe someone could make a virus that only kills zoomers, better than nothing
>>739009530150ms is like top athlete level500ms is like alzheimers boomer level
>>739009530Welcome to aging. it only gets worse from there. my eyesight has gotten absolutely horrific, I have to wear thick glasses even to post on 4chan on my monitor less than a foot from my face due to blurriness+astigmatism. Even with glasses I have to tell Windows to increase the text sizes of everything PC-wide just to be able to make shit out these days. I'm only 30, doc says my eyes will just keep getting worse most likely too.
>45y>210 ms on average at 01:00 AMeh good enough
>>739017107Your eyes are just ass, t. 34 no glasses
>>739009654Shroud has been getting his shit pushed in by the younger FPS generation for years, he has to surround himself with unskilled boomers to feel good
>>739017432people age differently, not everyone needs glasses but all bags of meat rot over time. if you're 34 you're breaking down somewhere, even serious athletes will run into issues.
>>739016289You're too old for that kind of absolute cope. I'm 38.
>>739009654My parents had me when they were 27 and 25You're a fucking fossil
>>739009530Phone adds a ton to it. Mine is like 200ms on PC but 300ms on phone. Probably because touch is slower and phone is laggy
>>739009530Bait, trying to make us 35 year-olds look bad
>>739017014Do not be envious of their youth. This physical existence is temporary. The LORD Jesus Christ can grant you eternal life. Repent and believe on the name of the LORD and you will have eternal life in heaven.
>>739009530It's something that can be trained. I'm sure I could do better than this too, just the first attempts average. Make sure you're anticipating the green.
>>739018131You can train it, but there's a genetic component.
>>739017602yeah even on PC it's not a true reaction time readout because of ping added on top and potential hardware lag.
>>739009530Why is his so slow? Maybe your family is just retarded. I get 151ms average at 29.
í'm 35 and my life hasn't unironically started yetkhhv, neet, hikki my whole life, wasted teens, 20s and soon 30s in my room. No idea of who i am and what i want to do, etc.It's a pretty grim picture really. I tried things but failed at everything. I feel totally dissociated from reality
>>739018174Yeah I'm sure there is, but the genetic side is less limiting than some people think. I'd wager that the genetic component might hold you back from becoming a top player in the world, but it's not going to stop you from performing well by most standards. You can still reach high ranks/win smaller tournaments, etc. if you work your ass off even if you're not peak human. It's just at those highest levels where every advantage matters.And honestly, that's only really for popular games. You can still find a smaller game that not many people play and win based off of your knowledge advantages.
>>739018390Liar
>>739018468Unironically just enjoy the life you have. In case you are not enjoying it, make an effort to change it, incrementally if needed. Really lame answer, but it really is the only way there is.
>>739009530I'm 32 and I got this 196ms on my first try, 178ms on my second here. I know for a fact that I've gotten slower as I've aged.
>>739014281its not a 2-2 tie its 3-2 victory by the other dude, cope daigo
>>739009530ah caint give out no eeyunfermayshun
31 here, what are the cons of low reaction speed? I don't care about vidya, in fact, I welcome getting worse at vidya because I found the usual slop way too easy
>>739019292I mean, realistically, very little. You will be worse at competitive vidya (like shooters) just because the guy with higher reaction time shoots first. You will be worse at reacting in split second emergencies like if a car swerves into your lane while driving, but like those situations are rare and you're just as likely to get a situation where you genuinely don't have enough time to react no matter how fast you are. If you're just enjoying your life and play some single player games you're unlikely to really ever notice your reaction time getting worse outside of very specific games like Warioware, but even those games give enough time for people with slow reaction speed as long as you practice a bit.
>>73900953036, don't have these issues.
>>739009530>open human benchmarkI'm afraid to know the truth
>>739009530Do you play counter strike or fighting games? Most games are easily beatable even by Japanese grandpas, you don't need lightning fast reaction
>>739010734that hurts to see
>>739019292You get disqualified for false start in the olympics if you have a reaction time below 100ms.
>>739018883Maybe you're right, I couldn't replicate it. Got several 153s but no better than that.
>>739019780do eet
>>739020186Because there's a huge difference between>my top reaction speed is 153to >my 20 round average is 153my top reaction speed is like 80 but my average is 180
>>739019541>You will be worse at reacting in split second emergencies like if a car swerves into your lane while driving, but like those situations are rare and you're just as likely to get a situation where you genuinely don't have enough time to react no matter how fast you are.Had a close call this week. Some idiot drove through a stop sign while I was passing through the intersection (no stop signs for my road, 2-way stop). Luckily I was able to swerve to dodge him and then swerve back to avoid the oncoming traffic. I'm pretty consistently around 187-190ms on that human benchmark.
>>739020378yeah like 200ms is gonna be fine for most irl situations, it's just how close you can cut it. it's the grandpas with 500ms where suddenly everything they do is on a half second delay where they're fucked in situations that other people won't be.
>>739020187I'll be back in 30min and post results, please don't laugh
>>73902023180 is a false start in that case. I had couple of those but restarted the test when I got them. 99% of my individual clicks were between 140-180ms and the actual average was probably in the high 150s.
>>739009530im 39 years old you have no excuse. i have grey hair on my fucking balls and i would 360 noscope your clanker ass ez.
>>739020231>my top reaction speed is like 80No, it's not, not even peak performance gets that level of speed. You were already clicking in anticipation, not truly just reacting.
>>739009530210 laid back, 188 on it, and Im 31You are just lying about what it used to be anon
>>739009530my nigga got the brazilian ping with his brain
>>739020902With your mind on your money and your money on your mind, rolling down the street, smoking indo, sipping on gin and juice
>>739009530This shit was annoying 15 years ago when i was 20 getting dominated by 12 years old
>>739009530You just stopped playing as much or caring as much. Our reaction times slow down much much later in life like 60s+ and that's a slow loss of reaction. But if you're generally healthy and more importantly you actively challenge yourself to keep playing shit and being conscious of what you're playing then you'll keep your reaction time. You got old and lazy, and probably don't even play games. Faggot.
>>739009530>35>below 200msI'm afraid it's a (You) Problem!{spoiler] btw I'm 6 beers in, you just suck at videogames LMAO [/spoiler]
>>739009530i'm 32 and don't even play video gamesi literally just jerk off all day and i've still got a better reaction speed than you dude, you might want to get yourself checkedare you on antidepressants or some other meds perhaps? when i was on that shit it was a huge debuff, added like +150ms to my reaction time
>>739009530Stop playing turn-based rpgs grandpa

>>739022003then you're just mentally retarded. it is physically impossible that you reacted that fast, you prepped the pressed and got lucky. your actual time is obviously about 200.

>>739022494the amogus one is actually fun
>>739022389if the tv has delayed output then yeah
>>739009791young zoomers are terrified of aging. i assume they will freak out once they age a bit. i wouldn't be surprised if some suicide. the first time they get hit with unc or whatever the equivalent is, they'll freak. some seem pretty fragile, but they're also rude. they are quick to criticize others, but can't handle much banter.
I got 235, but both my monitor and my internet connection is pretty old and not that great so I'm not too sure about it.
>>739022526yeah, it'll be sad to see the next gen of 4chan users rely on fact over conspiracy. /x/ is gonna be screwed
>>739022389It's almost definitely slower than a monitor.Your mouse can even add to it if there's a minor amount of resistance. These tests are just fun fucking around tools than anything to really consider unless you're at a consistent freak outlier

>>739022680what i'm saying isn't much of a criticism, it's more a warning. lose the arrogance. i'm a young millennial, but i don't remember people my age or older freaking out about aging or calling 24 year olds old. Millennials tend to have Peter Pan syndrome, but many Zoomers seem to think you just die at 30. That your life is over. Everyone experiences the age thing, but i don't remember anybody freaking out about aging like zoomers seem to be. If anything people oversold how much aging sucks due to being lazy and getting fat.

Im still active and last time I catch an object thrown at me to my face was a few weeks ago. So I guess Im alright.
my avg is 158.my friends avg is 137.i play singleplayer experiences, and he just plays CSGO all day. its either genrtics or clicking heads sharpens him.t. Zoomer

>>739023110>run through it a second time and check your average....
>>739009530Holy shit, I'm 40 and have 100ms
Pretty average all around.
>>739024008well... there are ways around that.You got that one ancient grandpa that plays FPS purely via his ability to account for bullet drop and tactics
I'm just going to add that my average is a hair over 200 MS and I'm almost 35 as well. Your reactions just suck for some reason OP.
I am still in my prime!
>tfw you always wanted to be good at competitive vidya but didn't have the discipline when you were younger>now you are 36, you have discipline but the body works against you>that hitch hasn’t faded with agethe fuck do i play? Everything comp is for youngsters only
>>739009654>dude, i'm only a 35 year old teen!
>>739024618>the fuck do i play? Everything comp is for youngsters onlyfighting games, this is what the best street fighter player of all time looks like.
>>739009654Sorry to say mate, but 35 is an old man.t. another old man.
>>739024618That's really not true. Fighting games have some top level talent that play even into their mid forties, and technically that number keeps climbing as those guys get older and keep playing. The biological reality is that raw reaction speed doesn't diminish as appreciably as is commonly thought in some circles. There are also genres that don't involve the same level of twitch reactions as that anyway.
hoooolyyyyyyy shiiiiiit niggaaaaaa
>>739024832Fighting games have another advantage in that moment to moment strategy plays an important part. Plus when you play enough you get into this flow that's hard to describe where you don't even think about reacting you just do. Anecdotal but I feel like that flow is easier to achieve as you get older.
>>739009530I'm 27 and my shit's coming up 218New thing to be insecure about. Next you'll tetl me my penis has inadequate yaw
>>739024785I ran a few tests, thinking I'd get 300-400ish.>288>247>247>247>246How is it even possible to be that accurate? I thought some extension was screwing with things and froze it at 247 until I got the 246but yeah I'm an old man, but better than I thought I'd be.
>>739024618I'm 34 and i'm going save you sanity and be brutally honest, it's over man.I won some local LANs of sc2, and some of LoL when i was broke and needed money, was supposed to be in my country national team for dota2 but went nearly homeless (drug and alcohol addiction) so i couldnt practice and got left in the dust.Every comp game ive tried since turning 29-30 i was so shit at it and was learning so slow i was angry at myself, no idea why but its beyond over.Weed + alcohol 23 yo > fully sober fit 34 yo.Fighting games are unironically fun, practicing and playing them can be as short and intense or relaxed and long as you want them to be.Dont feel like playing other people? You can autismdrill whatever in practice mode for hours on end if needed.Anyways sex with sakura.
>>739024618you're a grown ass man, why do you need to win a competitive video game to have fun? play something to keep your mind from dulling like baba is you or whatever.
>>739009530I dunno man, I think you are retarded. I'm 38.
>>739014054>it's like their fists telepirt to my face and my fists go through their afterimagethis made me kek really hard for some reason
>>739009530Just start abusing stimulants to own your nephew. Kids think they're hot shit until you're a few milligrams faster than them.
>>739025293men need competition the real life kind but still.
>>739024832ok but those people have 20 years of experience to compensate for that. I would start fresh, new like a zoomer but with a worse body>>739025195>>739025293i need something, i am competitive at heart. Some people are wired like this no matte the age. I guess we descend from warriors or something. Herbivore, passive men will never understand. Work, family, money, that's shit is a necessity but don't scratch the same hitch, not even close. It's a primal urge
>>739025505>Herbivore, passive men will never understand.ironic coming from someone that thinks video games are real competition. I do competitive weightlifting.
I think this has remained pretty stable throughout my life. I didn't have good reaction speeds as a teen since I never did anything that needed them
>>739009530Your nephew sounds like an asshole, no wonder people hate zoomers.
>>739022494whippets per minute?
>>739012901I never understood this mentality
>>739025582>weight classes>competitivelol
>36>153msthe only games I play that might need reaction times are helldivers 2 and division 2
>>739009654I'm 29 and I made it to top 10 in a niche arena shooter in about a year. IDK maybe it gets really bad after 30 but so far I don't really feel like I've lost my reaction speed.
>>739009530ten+ years ago I would be like 100ms but now I have to retry for like 30 attempts to get to 150ms but I average like 220msI can't imagine how bad things will get once I get actually old like 38+
>>739009530>Zoomer (16)Did he figure out age regression or something?Anyways younger people have better reaction times because they're playing video games all day while older dudes have jobs and vastly less freetime to play the same game 8 hours a day
>>739009530he is going to backseat coach youlike "if you could just execute my orders, that'd be great", only choice is to git good and school him; you can't lose respect with them, or it's over
>>739023963phoneposters get what they deserve
>>739009530Zoomers are borderline retarded so their reaction speed goes to waste anyways. Because running straight at someone in the open is their most common tactic.
>>739021065laid back
>>739009723fellow 1991 chad here OP is a faggot and deserves to be insuilted by zoomers
>>739009616Old has nothing to do with it. I'm 36 and I just don't want to try that hard most of the time. I can switch on and tear it up, but for what? It's not going to help me get rewards faster since most battle passes are time based as far as XP goes. I'm not going pro or starting a Twitch. I'll do really well starting out, but scale it back significantly unless I'm going to be in for a while, which is rare.

>>739031508Jesus. Are you trying to down from a tv or something?
>>739031430hey man, I can still beat majority of /v/ in a fair-play Tekken game or two and beat up some wanna-be coaches from Youtube using basic training mode combos and literal flow-charts, pipe down cuck, my reaction time improved from when I was 20, which was barely 200-230 consistently.
>>739012901The blackpill for young people to swallow sooner than later besides the fact that they take their health for granted is that you don't just magically become a different person in your 30s and 40s. So if you were browsing 4chan as a teenager and into your early 20s heavily, for instance, chances are you will continue to do so into the future. The things that may prevent it are filling your life with enough so that you simply don't have time to come here anymore or being able to have your needs met elsewhere. But if you take those away it may act as a baseline you would revert to otherwise. It's too convenient of an instant dopamine hit, much like using pornAlso from my observations, people who were chantards in high school but stopped using it before they graduated didn't develop a lifelong habit but those that didn't stayed here forever
>>739031578>>739029628basic training mode combos you say. That's crazy.
>>739009654Average life expectancy is around 80, so you're almost halfway there.You've got one foot in the grave, old man

30. Im still pretty good at FPS, I can grind to top rank if I have felt the need.Motivation is most the reason I dont nowadays to grind games, not sure if that's a sign of old age or just worn from it

>>739012901This is where you should be at that age. What the hell are you doing here in your prime?
>>739012901You start caring a lot less about what other people think as you grow older
>>739009654>only 35
>>739009530Semi-related matter but I've always found this funny>everyone i see keeps complaining about their aim and reflexes getting worse as they get older>keep crying about how they can't play their shootan games anymore>mfw i could never aim or react fast and so could never play shooters anyway, so i don't fucking careI WONIT'S THAT EASY

>>739036737i really the miss the hubris of my 20syou really believe you wont ever be in your 30sand then suddenly you areand yeah youre more mature mentally. but also still feel like you havent really changed much since your 20s. the only reminder is the random aches you get all of a suddenbut surely will never happen to yougod I miss that hubris
>>739035956Don't say that, you just love your parents so much you want to protect and nurse them, right?
>>739009530>No fucking way... I used to have great reaction speed in my 20s, like 160ms>What happened?Brain inflammation is the typical reason peoples cognition declines. Blood sugar issues, autoimmune issues, maybe nutrient deficiencies. but cognitive abilities declining as you age is a trope and not a given, its an indicator of poor health.
>>739009530>>739009654why did your sister get pregnant at 19?
My reaction speed has always been over 200 ms even in high school. It really doesn’t matter to me because I’ve never been a compfag other than fighting games, and even then I have no problem reacting to most things. The only time reaction speed matters is if you’re playing against autistic Koreans or chinks who no life a game.
dick don't work as good anymore.
>>739009530>>739009654no country for old anons
Of all the things to complain about from aging, this has to be the dumbest. Who cares if your reaction time is slower, are you trying to win tournaments at the top level of play? Otherwise, your skill at the game will matter more.
>>739023149You have no idea how wrong you are and how much of a better world you missed out on.
>>739037303I tell myself this everyday.

>>739009654you're probably just out of practiceyou need to do shit to keep your reflexes and reaction time up, when you where a kid playing vidya 24/7 speed typing inbetween trickshots gave your hand-eye coordination and reflexes a massive boostbut now you spend 8-10 hours a day fucking around and when you get time off you decide to watch anime or read or doomscroll killing your reflexes because you aren't training them with CS:S flickshots

>>739040597For me it's mostly the anonymity and just a bit of socialization and connection around random topics. I tried joining a discord once but I didn't know anyone, and couldn't keep up with the goings-on to get to know anyone. Twitter isn't good for this either, it's mostly hit-and-runs for likes.
