So I'm currently playing through Hollow Knight, and two months ago I played through (and loved) Ori and the Blind Forest.

Two Metroidvanias inside two months. Okay I hear you ask, what of it?

Well, those are the first Metroidvanias (or 'Search Action games, for those in the know) that I've ever really played for longer than ten minutes. To say I bounce off those sorts of games would be an understatement.

So, as you've gotten older, have you noticed that your tastes in games has evolved in any meaningful way?

I've moved away from caring about the story and just want things that are fun to play. I used to like Final Fantasy, for example, just for the story (because the gameplay kinda sucks) but as I get older I find the stories kinda cringe. Even the shit I loved growing up is mostly awful.
