I'm 33, so when I was a kid my games were like..cartoons. up until Goldeneye for the most part - your enemies weren't even human, and neither were you. It was all fantasy and fun. Gta3 was the one that really opened the door. (Which came from same people as Red) thar wasn't the same kinda "gaming" I grew up on.

But kids of the last couple gen? They get pumped with a new call of duty quicker than a covid booster. I don't play anything newer than 360 but even by that time... most games main objective is ...kill. and they try to make it look realistic as possible with graphics now (don't get me started on VR)
