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'm stealing this
Yeah this is a good one.
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.
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.
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.
Sorry, i replied on the wrong comment.
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." !<
