Kant did most of the work we remember him for in the later half of his life. Most Zen artists tend to be ancient looking, yet they are still capable of producing beautiful things. Old people doing meaningful things is only unobservable in sports. I encourage you to look for more examples as well.

I think the issue is that despite being successors, none of them have provided more compelling alternatives to Nietzsche's ideas. Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins (despite liking Sam a great deal) don't take existential issues such as meaning and morality seriously enough. I do however, greatly respect Christopher Hitchens as someone who was skeptical but rarely fell into becoming what he hated most. Sorry if this seems obscure- these thought are barely formulated but nonetheless, have been weighing on my mind.
