I'm 21 and I secretly want to be a fn pro but I know that if I go back to playing 6+ hours everyday, I wouldn't do well at work, id spend less time with my family, and my health would take a massive hit. It's just not worth it.

[@feersided]

Looking at the fighting game community, the pros there are pretty old but the reaction time is still there, especially for these games.

[@Logjambam]

I think the experience factor is still so important for so many of those games that being able to predict ends up more important than raw reaction time anyway

[@Dizorient]

@@Logjambam exactly

[@mAny_oThERSs]

Because its less reaction time and more muscle memory. It's so obvious.

[@simplyeyeronic1443]

​@k.a.8725 I wouldn't say it's less reaction time per say - there's absolutely players that use excellent reactions and anticipation to succeed, even if the combos and sequences they do are suboptimal. That said there isn't really anything in fighting games that does near instantaneous damage like shooters so being able to react as quickly isn't as important.

[@feersided]

@@mAny_oThERSs Oh it’s definitely reaction time all the way. For instance: in sf6, getting hit by DI will put you in a vulnerable state in the corner, and you have around 1 second to react and counter it, otherwise you are in trouble. There is also something called Whiff Punish, which is you reacting to your opponent pressing a button, find the right distance for his attack to slightly miss, and counter punish that missed attack for a massive combo damage. Muscle memory deals mostly with the continuation of the combos or trying to come up with the most damage combo at the moment, but not much about the neutral game.

I think most things described to genetics and age factors have minimal impact on performance, the main cause is the emotional stress that comes with growing up and society pressures which you described that take hours of training away. It's nice to see someone your age talking about this and it adds credibility. Also idk about fortnite but pro players don't make their money only from tournament winnings, in others games it's only a small portion when you're in a good org

Hey Reisshub, been watching your videos because of how thought provoking and broad the topics you cover are. Your dedication to you craft is very commendable and I can tell that it has been paying off. Just curious what software you use to design, animate and render the graphs that you referenced in this video. Also how did you edit the numbers at 2:29?

[@christopherhindle8371]

It's not reaction TIME that matters, it's the reaction QUALITY that matters. Experience matters! Also, older players are usually able to get better internet connections, better equipment, and such.

[@AimbotAU]

the thing is tho. fast paced online gaming is relatively new. the current 30-60 year olds making up the data on the graph never experienced playing online games like we do today. We don't have the data on people who grew up with gaming vs people who didn't because games like fortnite (and other fast paced games that train reaction and look time) are not old enough yet. maybe in another 10-20 years we can have a look at this topic, but for now the data you referenced is not accurate because there are other variables not discussed or taken into consideration. like obviously an 18 year old that has grown up knowing nothing but technology and games and has been on screens since they were a child, is going to be faster and better at it than a 40 year old who never grew up with them, and never really played games as a child.

[@xenvector]

I just turned 18 and I started placing well when I turned 17 but just quit with about 1K pr a year later, let's just imagine this, when you start playing fortnite it's usually on a console which sucks to compete on, next you might get a slow pc at 15-16 yo and only when I turned 17 and got a job was I able to afford a pc with a 3070 to run the game well. Now I turn 18 and I'm studying engineering in uni working 2 jobs and have no spare time. I love the game and was ranked top 50 in my country for a while but it's just not worth persuing even though there is nothing I love more than playing fortnite I have 12000 hours played on the game and still love it but chose to quit because of my mental health. and also from age 13-17 man grow in length and are skinny and agile. I'm 18 6ft and 80kg and growing in width, It is so much harder for me to move my arms which are 3 times the size they used to be over my mouse pad than a 13 year old.

[@kingemeraldbonesok8270]

I don’t think arm size has anything to do with it because you can always adjust for comfort but yea probably time would be the factor

[@mrgrim800]

honestly if your to the point you are saying its harder for you to move your arms it sounds like you have never done anything physical in your life EVER. Hit the gym man, moving your arms should not be difficult.

[@Obi482]

Yeah being good at a game at this level you need to be able to do some exercise, eat good, etc. just take care of yourself and you will see results

[@cheerful_crop_circle]

Im 18 years old and I have constant free time

[@0ldPlayer]

this makes a lot of sense because if I know where someone is on the screen my reaction time is still fast but my LDL is extremely slow for new and chaotic situations.

[@kgaming7599]

There are also other factors to your "look-doing latency". Usually 40 year olds are more stressed than 16 year olds, and that obvious has an impact, as well as how much sleep you get, and eating some fish might help too.

[@BuildFightDad]

I'm 45 and still grinding 😊 Great video, encourages me to not to give up against my kids 😊

[@metaltomcat3614]

One thing I wanna mention that may have an effect is called “hyper vigilance” it’s a thing your brain does as a response to trauma but I also suspect it has some effect on your look doing latency, like for me (yes I’m 17) I notice more stuff than my duo does in game partly because of that so that may also have an effect on your skill as you get older

[@lightyagami9882]

The topic is far too complicated that it doesn't even make sense to publish a study on it because it has so much to do with how a person eats or whether the person does sports - these are things that have extreme effects on the reaction time and how quickly you Information is processed and we humans don't all live the same way, so you can only apply this to the majority of the general public who always live unhealthy lives or who only live healthy lives, but these statistics only show the unhealthy general population for the most part and if you look at athletes The prime time is often 30 and if you look at athletes there are enough athletes who are even faster at 30 than younger people who are under 20

I played from 12-16 years old every single day besides when injured (I'd even play while sick), and I was worried that after I took my break I couldn't keep up. Spent about a year and a half playing other games, I just didn't care for it anymore (like. I would play occasionally if a friend asked but not often. Came back and I feel like I'm playing peak performance which I hadn't had since Chapter 2. If you don't enjoy it don't try to improve your skill, you'll be slow to improve even if you're trying. Emotions play a big part.

[@MrNota500]

You got better because from the time you quit to the time you picked it up again they got rid of bloom for bullet drop. It made a huge difference for me too. I also took a 2 or so year break from it and when I came back it was a totally different game.

My man you are a very intelligent individual. Even if this is fortnite and a video game. The facts you present carry in every aspect of life.

[@NHSSHINOBI]

When you're younger, your brain is more adaptable and absorbs information more easily due to neuroplasticity, which is most pronounced during childhood. I often think about Mongraal, who at 20 is still highly skilled but perhaps not at his peak anymore, possibly hitting a skill cap. Then there's Ninja, at 33, who has definitely reached a skill cap but can still transfer his abilities to other games effectively.

[@mptkitlit]

[@LegendPlays.]

W Video but I definitely want too say thiss: As someone that is 21 years old (turning 22 on July 16th) who wants too win an FNCS (on NAC). I feel like I’ve became wayyy better than how I was when I first started. When I was 15-18, I wasn’t able too compete in the high competitive seen as I couldn’t & had no interest in it. But when I became 19 or 20, I wanted too compete against the best of the people in Fortnite (still want too now) I feel like I’m improving more, I feel like I’m improving my awareness & other mechs. I as a player does have some PR but doesn’t have any earned yet, When you talked about players that are like that & they should consider that the game isn’t cut out for them, it kind of made me sad a little? Maybe like “sadly he’s probably right” but for some reason, I just simply can not quit or put my interest into another game too grind all day. I am 21 years old that doesn’t really have much priorities apart from spending time with family & going out on weekends too stores & such. I have also starting eating wayyy more healthier, exercising wayyy more before getting on Fortnite (& my body looks wayy better, just sayingg) & trying too have a stable sleep schedule which I feel like is working, just earlier, I played builds without warming up first & still dominated. I honestly simply refuse too give up, I feel like I’m playing endgames a whole lot better & just know that I could earn a lot in Fortnite even if the games’ been out for over 6 years (coming up too 7 now). I created a practice routine as well & so far it’s been good, I figured out what I need too work on the most which is mainly having an idea on planning the next players move. I want too make it too LAN (even if I am the oldest player competing there). I know I can’t give up because I feel like it’ll be hard work for nothing & too be honest, apart from recording Item Shops which I love doing, Fortnite is one of the only few games I love playing that I could grind & show that my skills are paying off. I was blessed/given a beautiful setup (saved up & payed for a few of the stuff) & I feel like this was for a reason, life sees that I want too become one of the best players in Fortnite & I know I can at LEAST win a couple of tournaments & an FNCS or 2. I know this is long but I just want people too understand on matter what age you are & want too go pro, you can still do it.

Reisshub thank you for inspiring me to start making videos! You always make me smile whenever I watch them so thank you ❤❤❤

[@TheChristopherJack]

'Look doing latency' isn't the only age factor, learning & adapting in general becomes harder with age. This is especially relevant as Fortnite is a continually changing game. I'm 30, I'm decent at the game & a fairly good learner, mentally I understand all the changes & have a rough idea how to play around them very quickly. Physically performing with those changes however proves a challenge to adapt to, I'd often play with a lad half my age- very similar in skill to me but significantly better mechanically even after barely playing for over a year. Comes back to the game, we do some 1v1 speed realistics, he has no idea what these new items are, but within mere minutes is already using them better than I have with a full week of exposure. I play with a few other blokes my own age & they're still adapting to the new items/changes.

[@cottsak]

Your videos are absolutely amazing and informative for a parent for Fortnite kids. Thank you bro.

[@ArtIncFactory]

[@SkittlzYT]

Look-doing latency can be slowed with experience in game. When you play enough eventually certain situations will become automatic. Kind of like muscle memory. Not to say this would be a complete fix or way to stop it though

[@AwakenedSpace80]

I think they get worse at 18 because that's when they graduate from school and they have to do adult stuff so less free time to play so therefore the skill degrades

[@UldisBiz]

I'm a 48 year old gamer dad, trying to practice every day just to become a better teammate for my son. First, I'm in awe of the effort you're putting in your videos and I really hope it pays you back well. Second, I so agree with the points you made. I come from a business consulting background and when I look at the numbers you can theoretically make as a pro Fortnite player, it makes sense when you're living under your parents support but for an adult the risk/ reward ratio does not look great. You can't grind games all day hoping for your "Bugha million" when you have to take care of your family members and monthly bills. If my son makes 100 bucks he will probably spend them on Jordan's or some snacks and feel great but to me it's barely a grocery bag and in a good day I can make it in less than an hour without much stress 😂 Third, in the realm of the adult world (unless you're from a 3rd world country) the amount of time it takes to get to the pro level and the potential earnings purely from competitions doesn't paint a pretty picture. But just like you, I just love the game (except for this season) and bonding with my son so I keep playing and hopefully improving at a snails pace.

Imo i dont think its anything to do with degrading because of age, but rather the people who do are just too comfortable. People like bugha, clix and others arent as good now when they were 16/17, probably cause they have so much money that improving isnt necessary and its not a big deal anymore. I think any 18 year old who wants to try out competitive would still have a good chance even if they are starting now.

I'm 35 professional at fighting games, MOBAs and FPS and I still have the skill. There main issue is that alot of us don't have the luxury/luck to game for alot of their adult life. I've been gaming since I was a toddler and alot of skills i've learned from previous games have transfered into modern games also I have alot of the time to learn something new and git gud at something new. It's common for a new trending game for it's pros to be younger as the new thing is commonly aimed for that new audience even games I once grew up with must appeal to new generation, while others must tell aging fans that times have changed and you can't always have the old stuff all the time. I jumped into fortnite around 2022 for dragon ball, before this I didn't like fortnite n was very ignorant towards it. But after I got joked into playing the game I started to understand the appeal of the mechanics to the point ti's not some cringe meme game but a complex fast twitch reflex shooter with some parkour mechanics, building, advantage points, stealth, understanding of the map. this is where it just clicked with me and fortnite became very fun, I'm guilty of prefering modern fortnite ngl but once in a while I do enjoy the retro style of fortnite. It also helps that I do have a healthy routine to stay healthy mentally and physically.

We need to bring attention to the fact that DMA cheating is preventing what would be the most watched video game event ever, Zero Build FNCS.

It’s all about growing up, Timmy

Man I'm 31 now. MW2 2009 was when i was at my peak and felt like I could never lose. I have noticed how much worse i get as i get older. Still put in a good amount of time but it takes my brain alot longer to process all information and my hands can't keep up with my brain anymore. Getting old sucks

My cousin is in his early 20s and plays like a casual player now as he doesn’t care about gaming as he used to. Over 10 years ago he was into cod and was really good, he liked BO2 the most. How cod is ass nowadays, my cousins never played it but thinks it seems like a shit game by the looks of it

[@bennypika3575]

there was old meme where either you have jobs and have nice stuff but not time for practices. While the poor doesn't have nice things but has time to be pro at stuffs. so pretty sure it's just jobs away from computer that ruin their muscle memory practices

I don't have earnings, but not because I'm not great at the game. I am, but my ping keeps screwing me up, my fps tanks sharply for some reason even though I get well above 100 most of the time, and most important of all is I don't have great teammates, like, not even close, and I just never play comp because of that. I actually excel in chaotic end games too because I'm ultra-aware and play smart.

It's not the reaction time or reflex response with your physical movements, it's as you get older your mindset changes and you enter into: too much critical thinking and lose your instant response in other words blame your brain and thinking as you get older
