Veering a bit off-topic: I used to get video games when I was younger, and played them obsessively, but around the age of 18, I almost completely lost interest. I occasionally will play online games with friends nowadays, but I do that more for the "hanging out with friends" enjoyment. The game is just a vehicle for that.

I can't play a single-player game for more than 5 minutes without losing interest.

Yea, it really stands out to me how much the narrative matters to me now as opposed to when I was younger, when it was all about gameplay. I get bored basically once I've figured out the controls and what the character does, etc.

However. I really like playing Mario Kart in a group. But then it is more of a social thing, not a hobby.
