    I guess he has played other arena shooters? The movement and aiming is far too different from fortnite or cs for a first timer in the genre to pull off

    To be fair, Quake Champions plays very differently to how Q3 played back in the day.

    I had a few rounds when Quake Champions first released. I was a very mediocre Q3 player, but routinely topped leader boards on QC.

    I thought I was a railgun pro and then found out that I got old and wasn’t.

    Champions really is a different thing altogether though, so there’s that.

    This is the gaming equivalent to the first time your kid whoops your ass in basketball (or insert other sportball game here).

    It’s a humbling experience that’s lets you know age has finally caught up with you, but also that your kid is growing and realizing their own talents and abilities.

    You probably started on Mario, your little savage probably started with Halo or Fortnite. We just can’t hang with that.

      Mario is way harder Tf are you talking about? 😂 old school games are some of the most unforgiving games. If you loose at Fortnite it’s because some sweat is playing against you if you loose all your lives in Mario you restart the entire game, no check points. Old games were crazy, especially the platformers

    I swear every guy in his 30s to early 40s thinks and claims they were “pro” at some sort of FPS game, because they were somewhat decent online and used to beat their 3-4 closest friends regularly.

    It’s epidemic.

    Chances are you sucked then too, then got old and slow and out of practice since.
