/vr/ - Retro Games

>Videogames were in their infancy during the 70s. They didn't really exist at all during the 60s.

Something I read elsewhere. Very misinformed post.

Hey guys. 21 year old here. I have a question.

I read a debate on this one speedrunning forum. One of the two people in the debate was 34 years old. He said that he hadn't noticed any decline in his gaming skills compared to his younger self. The other guy was 28. He said that reflexes decline dramatically between the ages of 25 and 30, and that he's nowhere near as skilled or as quick on his feet as he was even three years ago.

My question is, which of those two perspectives is closer to the truth? I've always prided myself on being highly above average at videogames, and it scares me a bit that my 'prime' might not last for much longer.
