Are video games harder now or do i just suck?

im almost bout 35

i got xbox and gamepass. ive been playing FPS games all my life. but todays games seem way harder. farcry 5, batman arkham knight, halo infinite, doom eternal. all these games got me frustrated on normal gameplay. dying constantly. i have to switch to easy to get anywhere. the aiming, the constant moving, the in depth tree skills.... they are just to hard for casuals. i member beating the first 3 halos on legendary now im dying 20+ times on the first couple levels of infinate on normal? LOL!

even single player BF5 on normal is hard AF!

Tangent but that's the problem Ratfish has. He's too used to playing online games and he talks chit on the Misc like he would in Call of Duty.
When I used to play Cod4 and halo it was never that bad

These kids have me wanting to get into my car and finding them

I beat the game as a kid. Dad helped some. I failed most side quests, and failed finding most of the chalices though. This one set me up to be a long term gamer, srs. It's funny, I got the remastered PS5 version when it came out, and it was such a laughable cake walk lol, almost got completionist but didn't wanna do the additional content that they added to it (though it seemed innovative).

Videogames have never been easier if you play on regular difficulty. Back in the 90s you had to start the whole fukin game over if you ran out of continues.

Just started replaying Quake on epic games, and yes newer games are a lot harder/more controls. It's probably the same way people who grew up on atari felt when they saw pc games for the first time.

You don't suck and the games you described aren't hard. It sounds like you aren't taking the time to get over the learning curve of those games, srs.

Multiplayer games on the other hand...have gotten way more sweaty. Apex Legends, COD, Battlefield, etc.

Basically this. Reaction times slow down with age. Not just that, some people even think that time appears to go faster as we age because our processing time slows down.
