In a more complex future world where media is tailored to you, how are you entertained differently? (self.asklemmy)

One constant in our ongoing civilization is a continuous branching of complexity. Assuming civ continues, how does your entertainment become more tailored to you as you imagine it?

Decades ago I wanted a game where a world building economy game, industry and domestic simulators, real time war strategy, and a first person shooter that bridges to an adventure/explorer were all combined into one. This is a game where all of these roles could be filled by autonomous AI characters, but where recruiting and filling roles creates dynamic complexity that is advantageous for all. Each layer of gameplay dictates the constraints of the next while interactions across layers are entertaining and engaging for all.

It does not need to be gaming. What can you imagine for entertainment with tailored complexity?

The trouble with this is you will never stumble onto something you had no idea you liked.

For instance, I'm not a fan of metal music or folk music. If there was a gatekeeper I would have never heard Mongolian metal band The HU.

Back in the day, variety shows and Top 40 Radio did a great job of exposing people to new talent.

These days, the internet gives us exactly what we ask for.
