As much as i like the game i think is time for me to hang it up.(Online) DD isn’t for me anymore.My vision isn’t the same lol.I tried so hard and few times i tried to keep my eyes on the ball but i cant lol is either late or to early.My eyes get tired after playing 2,3 games online.
I like the offline moments and cards collection but when it comes to playing in legend or Goat.I have 0 chance.Legend,Goat should be taken off.(My Opinion) specially if the person like my self over 40 years old.Some of you might not agree but the game becomes frustrating when gameplay hitting becomes inconsistent.Maybe is my age or maybe is the game that is inconsistent.I get confused.lol

If you are good enough to be in the legend category you are a top 5-10% player of this game lol.

@RD-Cash-Pesos82_PSN You can’t handle legend or goat, so it should be removed? Try not playing on those difficulties.

Part of maturing as a gamer is coming to the realization that you're not as good as you used to be and accepting it. Quitting the game is kind of a [censored] move. Its basically saying "Boo hoo im not gonna win every time i play so im just never gonna play again".

I'm 61, at the 500-600 level in RS. I like playing Events and BR online. They're All-Star difficulty (Events are sometimes HOF). My reflexes certainly aren't what they used to be, but I still enjoy online play and the rewards that go along with it. These old eyes can still play at AS level online.

I’m in a similar boat. I’ve been playing the show since the beginning back in 06. I love the game and the collecting and grinding aspects. Ranked and Weekend league are a lot of fun. I am in my early 40s and tore a retina this year and had to play one-eyed for most of the year. I cannot compete above a certain level and I’m okay with that. I still pitch with the best of them and keep my games close and pray I can make them pay when they screw up. It’s still fun to me. I abhor losing in almost anything, but I just have accepted my mortality and find enjoyment where I can.

Another option for us old folks that don’t want to play on legend is custom leagues. Find one that plays on all star. I played in one last year and the competition was pretty casual.

I never needed to play online.
I still get my baseball and hockey fix playing their Ultimate Team modes offline.
I started playing sports games way before online came along in '99, fwiw.
There's still fun to be had offline, imo. -
Im 48 and my vision is definitely not what it used to be 2-3 years ago. I had to adjust my perspective. I rarely play online, last time I played was in October. I'm having more fun now doing mini seasons with my new perspective. I play all star, I quit playing legend my eyes can't keep up. All star gameplay is still pretty decent not good but decent and the cpu still tries to win. 100+ fastballs I take unless it's down the pike and I'll take a hack at it and if I foul it off I consider that a victory, but I sit offspeed with the flamethrowers. Someone said on this forum in one of these threads if you get 3 hits every 10 at bats then you are doing job that's what changed my perspective and get less frustrated at the game. I realized my limitations and tI am trying to adjust to my limitations instead of the game.

@DrBear100_PSN Do you play on a monitor or a TV?
