My most played game in my Steam library is Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus which came out in 2013. The newest game in my library is Atelier Sophie DX a rerelease of a 2015 game.
True in my case. All of my favorites either were released before 2020 or originally released before 2020 and I'm playing the re-release.
Only new IP I got excited about after 2020 was Project G.G. and I strongly doubt it'll ever see the light at this point.
Heroes 3 HoTA is still excellent and being actively developed.
There is just so much time in a day and I think nostalgia does come to play with this as well. Gaming tends to correlate to being younger and having more free time, so by playing the same games you did back then you're reliving those days.
Just a thought anyway, I tend to play older games as well, but also newer games like Baldur's gate 3 or Path of Exile 2.
Either oldish titles or Indies, mainstream game devs are pure malaria
