Is it normal to just... fall off, and not be as good at gaming? Because I feel like I've been getting worse for a while now.

Hello fellow person my age lol. Ive never really stopped gaming. Never had kids or took breaks. I noticed last year when playing God of War Ragnarok...I was getting my ass handed to me, and I was confused cause the first (new) GoW was pretty challenging, but I beat it all on normal (Except the last Valkyrie boss) but this one had to struggling. I lowered the difficulty about 90% through and beat it and feel bad. I also have no patience for Souls-like games, tried Mortal Shell, Lies of P, and couldnt tell if i just had no patience or if I sucked ass.

But then flip over to fighting games where I grew up on, I can still do everything to my ability on SF6 and MK1 right now playing those. I'm not Diago or SonicFox but I can still hang. So idk. I feel like the older we get, the more we think about other shit that 40yr olds think about. I was playing SF4 professionally and won a few small tournaments when I was like...idk..28/29 and then even when Injustice 1 came out I was 33 and that is all I could focus on, but now I can't tell if its life or just natural decline...but I will be gaming until I die so....
