I always end up in the average pool. Just once I wish I could be talented at a game and not rely on experience to be half decent.

I'm reasonably competent with Nero, but Dante is a completely different matter.

CS. I mean I'm not a shit eating silver but fuck, you'd think after 9 years you'd learn how to aim? Can't teach an unsteady hand how to aim. My sens is incredibly low as well, a full mousepad stroke is about 200 degree turn, but I'm just too jumpy to aim at a strafing head.

CSGO and RTS

I really don't get CSGO. I memorize all the grenades, callouts, how to manage economy, when and where to use each gun, recoil control, and I still can't get anything done. The strange thing is I can easily pick up any other FPS game and play it at a high level.

RTS I can't multitask worth a damn.
>>
Anything fps. Just can't play them. Nevermind if it's with a controller, I won't even try, shit is impossible to me. M+K at least makes me passable.

Street Fighter.

Used to be awesome as a kid. At 31 now I just suck. Try so hard too and watch guides and put the time in.

My w/l ratio on IV was something like 1/8 online.

>>335888593
meanwhile, I've been playing competitive for a month and went from silver 1 to gold nova master by using 4 guns and no grenades
how does that make you feel
>>
All of them

The best is when I play a game for months, feel like I improved a lot, get a friend to pick it up, and then within two days they consistently kick my shit in

Taking guitar lessons made me better at video games because they taught me how to actually practice skills and perform difficult things with my hands. Maybe if you try out something similar your life would become bearable.

FPS I can get good at with just practice, but reach my limit pretty fast , and if I don't keep practicing nearly erry day I lose my edge extremely fast now.
I really hate getting old, not only am I slower and my highest limit is lower, but I also just cant be bothered to play the same game endlessly, get to 100-200 hours and I want to change.

Can't git gud at games played with controllers that actually need precision or RTS

Probably the only game out there I could still be very very good at is Dota/likes, but considering I played the shit out of the original in WC3, HoN when in beta/released, thats not something I can get into anymore.
>>
I don't get you people. Why does your skill at a video game matter?

I play for fun and fun alone. My level of skill is not relevant.

Any RTS.

I've been trying them since fucking C&C. I loved Cossacks. I've just always been fucking terrible at them and never been able to improve at all.

Is this how Ed Wood felt?

The souls games. I started with Demon's and yet the games only seem to get more difficult despite the fact I've played them in order.
>>
Fighting games. I cannot wrap my head around pulling off combos because I can't memorize them. Always just end up button mashing.
>>335891923
RTS are my favorite genre, I've played almost every single one and have been since I was a kid. I still get shit on in multiplayer but I prefer single player against the computers anyway because it's relaxing.

I try, anon. I really, really do try. But I grew up on Ridge Racer, F-Zero, and Cruis'n Exotica cabinet games. I play Burnout, Trackmania, Need For Speed... I'm a resident Filthy Casual, because nothing else gives me that 300 MPH rush. The graphics can look as photorealistic as they can get, the car can handle exactly like it does in real life, but it's just not the same as screeching by oncoming traffic at inhumane speeds before performing profanely impossible drifts and mid-air stunts. If I could, I'd rather just actually purchase/rent a sports car for a track day. But I can't right now. So in the meantime, it's Arcade City for me.

SC2 a few years back. Put so many hours into that game and was so close to masters league but could never quite get it.

Ever since then I've become much more busy and only play games casually.

World of Warcraft.

Played since beta, hate the way high-end arena is played with focus targets and whatnot.

I've gotten high rating in WoW arena and RBG but never considered myself good. I can go beast mode in other MMO's as far as my own skill, especially Guild Wars 2, but WoW always leaves me feeling like I'm clunky at it.

Sims are fucking boring as shit anon don't worry about it.

Theres a reason its players can only and only jerk off to the graphics of them and nothing else

Smash
CUHRAYZEE games
Possibly fightan games as well (I'm going to try to make a serious effort to git gud once I buy a PS4 and SFV)

In all of these genres, I can actually get pretty decent, but I can never really cross over into the truly gud threshold. Maybe if I played them more...
