I used to be good. Now not so much. What has happened to me?
I should buy a new 'puter. A new mouse and pad too.

FPS? Or strategy games? I can help you regain your skills in the former cuz its easy but the second is just an experience/iq issue.I used to be good. Now not so much. What has happened to me?

I was a coomer when I was good at games. I am severely more depressed though only because I have grown aware of my circumstances.Did you take SSRIs? Become a coomer? Started using a different controller? Are you more depressed?
FPS games. I have a feeling that mechanics in shooters are still somewhat contingent on IQ, even if the quake boomers say otherwise. At this point I think I'm too conscious of the clerical aspects of FPS mechanics and so incapable of achieving a "flow" state.FPS? Or strategy games?

Nope, no well-rated game features mechanics that are impossible to master as muscle memory and hone. And especially FPS, they all have the same core principles.I think I'm too conscious of the clerical aspects of FPS mechanics and so incapable of achieving a "flow" state.
I agree. I had ~170vrt a few years ago. No clue what it'd be now.Reaction time and physical alertness most important part
Depends on the game. Mouse control is also dependent on gear, and aim trainers don't translate well to FPS games which are movement-oriented. Games like CS or Valorant are different.After that you really only have to give effort by practicing consistently, mouse control is easy to refine.
It's not about finding "top" equipment, it's about finding equipment which is compatible with your own tastes. I think that at a lower level your playstyle can be determined through entry-level handicaps like a low refresh rate. In quake-tiered games that'd mean your playstyle would become movement-oriented since you aren't leveling the surplus frames (assuming hardware which is "good enough") with server tickrate or your natural vrt, so you focus less on crosshair placement. Past that point it becomes a problem of dexterity, rote learning, pad and mouse, etc., all of which aren't easy to fix if you're handicapped into hyperfocusing on clerical aiming shit.BUT you must also realize gaming equipment determines your ability handicap and so a bad setup/not being able to afford top equipment means you’ll never be the best, or if playing in highly popular franchises with active fanbases, not even decent.
So i think you gonna need a different cope if you want to be good at VidyaI was a coomer when I was good at games. I am severely more depressed though only because I have grown aware of my circumstances.
