It isn't because you're growing up. Gaming is becoming shit. MSNBC has the same opinion as me. Gaming is becoming less creative, remember the ps2, xbo, gamecube era? Ye I do, it was the best time..the games were creative and unique. The games focused on fun not gimmicks or graphics. Last gen (Wii, Ps3, X360) was really good up until around 2010 imo. All the games were creative until then, Halo 3, Forza, Bioshock, COD 4, left for dead 2, littlebigplanet they were all creative and unique. They didn't focus on trends. They wanted money of course but they tried to make their games stand out from the crowd and make their fans happy. Then when MW2 (that last good COD) came out many gamers started playing shooters only, specifically Halo/COD. Many game developers were stingy and followed this trend of making cod clones. Now the creative games and non shooters get hidden by all the cod clones. Although less cod clones have been popping up this gen and creativity is coming back into the industry. People have also become more accepting of non shooter games too. I can't wait to see how this gen will turn out. Haha, hopefully Halo 5 is like a traditional Halo game too (but that isn't the point). Few creative games have released and made it to the top during the cod clone era such as Skyrim, Dishonored, Littlebigplanet 2, Reach (I liked Reach, deal with it), Far Cry 3. We won't be seeing too many games from next gen yet, probably a year or 2 later, around the time Halo 5 will release. That is when the "boom" will happen. COD is also dying out which is a good thing as there will be less cod clones and more creative games. I might be switching to PC though, they seem to have lots of creative games, especially since Valve is one of the best game developers out there although Bungie another creative developer won't be releasing Destiny on PC. :( The only thing I will hate about this gen is MICROTRANSACTIONS!
