You grew up.

Welcome to the club, I make "games" but I don't really play them but once or twice per year.

We aren't little kid anymore you know?

I post on ancient message boards and read dead-tree books. It’s always been that way for me. My parents never let me play video games when I was growing up in the age of pac-man so I never picked up the arcade habit, much less the newfangled ones.

Re: all video games bore me all genres. what is wrong with my brain????
I'm showing my age here but I've played games since the days of Atari. By the time the PS4/XBox came out, if you've played one you've pretty much played them all. Hell I just bought the newest Dragonball: Kakarot game, still sitting on the shelf, haven't even played it & don't really care to. Bought it more as a collection piece than anything. So do what I did, find a new hobby. I like things that go boom. Now THERE'S some dopamine for ya...lol

Re: all video games bore me all genres. what is wrong with my brain????
I got to the point years ago where I just looked at various "new" games and said to myself: I've basically already played this game, this version just has better graphics and some different stages, but you're pretty much just doing the same thing as before. I took 4 years off from gaming at that point, but picked it up again recently. It still doesn't give me the happiness that I got from it as a child. Maybe just take some time off from gaming and see what happens.

I like video games still but I am only currently playing Angry Birds 2 and sometimes some classic games on my emulators. I like them best when you play with someone else but my town is very boring.

I'm still on the xBone 360 because nothing new interests me. Sources tell me it's even worse. Auto matchmaking, gender bending and Leftist narratives. No thanks.

Re: all video games bore me all genres. what is wrong with my brain????
I am addicted to tekken 7 online.

Quick rush, matches are 3 min topps.

Nothing else seems fun anymore.

Its super convenient because I have young children and cannot dedicate hours per session to gaming, so the short match structure works for me and in many cases, is pretty intense.

You need the Division franchise. Hardcore brain intellect Theory Crafting

Thousands of Different builds are possible

Avg players are in their 40s cause youngins dont have the patience nor intellect

Tom Clancy, Division 2, Warlords of New York edition should keep you busy for 1k hours

have you tried any map game? like Europa Universalis 4, crusader kings 2 or hearts of iron 4?
your case was my case 1 year ago, but i found these ones and somehow i can enjoy them for like 2-3 h which is a long time for me (having adhd as well)
and better yet you can learn some history and geography too
