Too old for serious playing?

I'm 55, I'm on the game a lot, and I've seen a lot of changes. I haven't found it to be more competitive the older I get, I found it to be a lot easier. Stats mattered in 2016, so did SP. Now you really just need three 160 artifacts and you're ready to rumble. Anything over 200 SP anyway is overage since omnibus as everything is snipped.

The only place I've noticed SP really mattering at all is in newer elite content, but you have to have all the elite gear and all the stuff as well. So you're either playing 1% of the game that's 99% of your build, or 99% of the game which generally has nothing to do with your build at all and most older content you could just go in with a stock character and stock rotation and do about the same damage as you do with any sort of specialty stuff that you try.

I have my main, which has about 630 SP. I stopped doing SP around flashpoint or before, when I discovered that the only thing that really mattered anymore was artifacts and every other sort of bonus just seemed to be somehow artificial to me.

I still have a great time and play the game every day! However, competitive? I don't really think that DCUO has been competitive for a number of years now. All of that rack space I believe got divided up over a number of platforms and it's just not fast enough for that anymore ISP-wise.

51 here, I play twice a week or three days if I have the time.

64.

just shy of 60 year old bloke here. got the reaction times & observational acumen of an house brick. got 17 toons, 8 are male, 9 are female. my main's female ( see picture in signature - that's Irvynnge ). drink like a fish, smoke like a chimney, swear like a sailor, dance like David Byrne if he'd just been punched in the face by Morrissey. not entirely sure how long I've been playing, because, you know, I'm getting on a bit & I forget things, but it's a goodly 8-ish years, or thereabouts. don't care if someone does more damage than me. don't care if someone's faster than me. don't care if someone's got more money than me. I'm just here to make up stories & have fun.

now, get of my lawn.

I just figured I wouldn't be getting all that many SP, so I haven't really been going out of my way to try for them. Still, I somehow went from ~189 SP to just over 200 last week, and from there to 222 this week. Feats just started popping left and right. Will I ever get to 600 SP? Probably not. But I'm a filthy casual, so I'm not worried about it. As long as I'm still having fun, I'll keep playing.

I'm 66, and I don't have any problems. I love the game.

I did not read forums for a while. Sorry about that. Lots of fighting in comments. That was not what i was looking for.
I talked to some good players and i learned how to play better. Not everyone has to be best or even good, but if you do. Stop bullying people that want to play their own style.

Im 45 and Im a better player now for sure than i was in the beginnings of the game. but I do know what you mean the frist time I played spiderman on ps4 was the first time I thought dang am I getting too old for all these buttons but luckily it only lasted a little while of playing to get the feel for it

thats most of my league as well not all but most

I honestly shocked at the ages in here it warms my heart to see it.

Be careful. At your age, a warm feeling in your heart could mean something.....is your left arm numb....do you smell toast?
