The best part of video games back in the day was making memories with your friends, now it all feels like structured fun. “This is how you play the game and this is when you are supposed to have fun” Idk if that makes sense.

I think you’ve just played too many games. You know how they work now, you have a sense of what’s behind the curtain. You can see the way the dev is trying to talk to you through specific camera angles and lighting placements, and you resent it and wish for the days you didn’t notice that stuff.
I get it. It’s valid. But it’s a personal thing. Games didn’t get less fun, you just aren’t enjoying them anymore. They’ve always been like that.
May I suggest cheating? No, seriously: Download some mods, cheat tables, or trainers. Play the game the way you want to play it. Break out of the devs’ carefully-packaged little box, even if it makes the game easier or makes people sneer at you. Go out of bounds. Give yourself infinite health and see how long it takes to beat the last boss naked and unarmed or using a DDR pad.
Don’t cheat in multiplayer though. There’s a special hell reserved for those who ruin others’ experiences.
This is a good idea! Go nuts for a while, see how you feel.
I’ve been cheating since the days of hand writing them from the internet for snes games. Once it gets boring, fuck it. But wholeheartedly, DO NOT CHEAT IN MULTIPLAYER. There’s just no reason, either you like playing or you don’t. I’m trash at Siege, but I still play without hacks cuz I still find it fun even when I lose.
