Yeah, the tech thing makes sense. I used to get really excited by new pieces of tech. My first smart phone, a new game console, etc. Now? I couldn't even tell you off hand what model iPhone I have nor what the newest one is. When will I get a new one? Probably when my old one breaks.

I think on the gaming side of things, the turning point might be around the Switch. Basically the point where Nintendo stopped experimenting with weird new things for their consoles. They basically just joined MS and Sony in releasing a standard console that could play modern games with the exception of it still having the motion controls from the Wii. The other companies also abandoned trying to do gimmick stuff like motion controls.

Very true.

Theres no innovation any more. We basically saw the peak in the 2000s of innovation. It is now solely driven to suck us dry of every cent and steal our data to sell it back to us on a subscription model.

Vr is one fun new tech though. Its also not new, we had vr in the 80s. It was awful ofc.
