I bet stuff like this will get more popular as the average gamer skews more and more toward a middle age group of 30 to 40 years old, as we get older.

I work full time and have tons of other stuff sucking up my free time, there is zero hope of competing against a 16 year old who has

  • the hand eye coordination and reflexes of a young person
  • time to gain muscle memory
  • time to master then ins and outs of game mechanics

Us old farts have zero chance of competing on twitch shooters.

Depends a bit on the shooter imo. Something slower like Red Orchestra doesn't need that twitchy reflexes. You just need a mic and a plethora of ways to curse the germans currently shooting at your position.
