There are certain video games that I feel like I’ve outgrown, but I will never outgrow video games as a whole. That’s like saying you’ll outgrow movies.
i usually stay away from hollywood and cookie cutter movies and its fine. even then every once in a while something will catch my attention, i think you are just tired of all the really bad movies out there, like your tastes got more refined if you will.
To your point, I’ve found storytelling to become fairly predictable as I age. Not that I didn’t watch shows or movies anymore. There’s a comfort in knowing what comes next and enjoying the art of visual storytelling and good acting. It also makes shows/movies that defy expectation that much better. Not “subvert expectations done poorly” like later seasons of GoT. More like (Andor spoilers)
! when Nemik dies. I know Cassian is the Reluctant Hero™. I know he’ll need a catalyst to galvanize his will and purpose. As soon as Nemik came on screen with his fresh face and youthful enthusiasm I thought “yeah he dies by the end of ACT II, and Cassian will be so moved by his sacrifice he’ll become a rebel”. But he died and Cassian was all “Yeah that sucks. Gonna take my money and bail.” !<
I wouldn’t say that. At some point, you may just lose interest. I used to be playing all day, but during my 20s interest faded and now in my 30s, I maybe play some old games for a few hours here and there, but more for nostalgia. If I couldn’t play any games anymore, I wouldn’t say I would be terribly sad.
Maybe it’s different for you. People are different, after all.

Yeah this is a good one.
I think I may be have outgrown movies, it’s that or almost all of the movies in the past 5 years have been total crap.
Hmmm nah I don’t think I’ve outgrown movies, I think it’s the total crap thing.
