Am I the only feeling like Gaming is getting boring these days?

I've limited myself to playing games that I find replayable, like Ace Attorney, Pokémon, and sometimes Animal Crossing: New Horizons, but even then, I find myself feeling bored and burned out. Even when I try new games like Cyperpunk 2077 (hearing that its fixed) and Mario And Luigi Brothership I just feel this "lack of motivation" to play them again. Like something about them didn't pull me in, lack of older games did it's hard to explain. Lastly, there is GTA 5 Online. I only go there whenever there is a new event. I enjoy it for one day, and then I put it down. So yeah, I am gaming less these days and spending more time managing my life and watching YouTube videos.
 
I feel this way towards new games. I hardly ever buy any new games, I just replay some of the games I already have. I always figured this "fatigue" was due to me getting old, lol. Also, I'm easily overwhelmed these days. I used to love open world games but nowadays I just feel dreadful when I look at one of those massive maps with tons of icons and things to do.

I also only do the events these days in GTA btw. And I check the monthly car selection etc. But I definitely don't play every day anymore.
 
Not "boring" for me, but I feel unmotivated (due to mental health and real life) to play games sometimes. I still haven't finished some of the jprgs and other games that I touched last year and I want to finish them.
 
Gaming doesn't feel boring to me, but I do feel a lot of fatigue. I think it is related to age and my disability. Most of the time I just want to play a game that I can pick up and play and then put down and not have to relearn button sequences or moves or what I was doing strategically the last time I played. I guess a little more on the arcade side or casual side, and something that isnt a daily or even a weekly thing.
I tend to play games in spurts.
