Comment on How do some fans of genres avoid becoming jaded with similar material?

I think I get what you’re saying. It’s hard to enjoy story beats when you’ve seen the tropes a million times already. When a plot-point is revealed, you typically know how it’ll play out, so you now have to watch it unfold. This seems to get worse over time, but there are gems that genuinely have held my interest and allowed me to be propelled by curiosity, rather than being pulled through a game by recycled narratives.

Having a teenager has given me a new perspective on these things, because they haven’t been desensitized to those commonly used elements just yet. I’d say to keep gaming and remember the special few that made you feel something or kept you guessing. Cheers
