I have read a couple of similar threads here and there but this one is maybe different, so hear me out:
Iam now 35, i have been playing vidya since iam 3 years old. in my youth i played a lot of jrpgs and since i was a bit poor so i calculated back in the day 1€ should be 1hour of gameplay.
nowadays i cant stand stupid school romance, cheesy dialogues, weird disgusting japanese tropes or typical CoD-shooter and those football college humor. if games dont respect me or my time, they can get fucked.
i dislike grinding, i dislike the fact, when iam getting sent out to do fetch quests etc.
i have played in the last 3 or so years only indie games. it also takes me a lot of energy to finish up a game. game pass makes it incredibly hard to finish up games and it feels like work. i dont buy as many games as back then.
have i changed or games have changed?
iam absolutely not interested in the two new ff games, because ff13 and ff15 absolutely sucked. i rather play genshin impact and love simping over mona than playing actual games.
i feel really degenerated since i want instant gratification rather than getting ready to immerse myself into a new world.
is this normal?
i sometimes have stopped playing games for a week or two, only to realize i feel like a crack addict. but i havent played vidya for more than a week, but i still feel no urge atm.
is this depression?
mid-life-crisis?
should i get intococaine?
