Comment on What difficult games/game challenges did you give up on?

Your reaction time is a function of your focus. If you put your mind to it, yadda yadda yadda. Then it's just up to you to decide if it's worth sticking to it or getting to bed so you're well-rested for work in the morning, because that's what will separate you from beating Hollow Knight in your 40s.

I've just moved on to other games. I have a wife and a small kid. I can't afford to spend hours and hours stuck on a game.

Right, that's my point. Those things are keeping you from finishing the game, not your reaction times. Those tend to not drop off until far later in life.
