i know it can be hard sometimes to have a deep conversation about videos games. but in defense of these people gaming is very vast and the freedom of choice and variety of stuff to play can be to much for some. i thinks thats why many people don't explore what gaming all got to offer.

Yes the same with sport. There's too many damn sports there should only be one sport at a time.
All sports players should be required to play in all sports. I want to see baseball players doing ice hockey, but that would probably lead to a blood bath. So we'll do that one at the end.
I have played several hundred games, only really like 80 or so of them. La-Mulana, Lobotomy Corporation, Terranigma, Radiant Historia, and DROD RPG are some of those. I think most people wouldn't have heard any of them.

I'm sometimes surprised of how few people play indie games. I'm playing Neon White now and having a blast.
I play literally anything, but with an increased rate of Single Player FPS, Twin-Stick Roguelite, Bullet Heavens,ARPGS and Roguelikes. Currently my main fixation is The King is Watching, I haven't the issue that i only play specific games, but i can't finish any of them -.- It's like i have a fear of coming into a situation where i fail, damn anxiety.
I don't see a difference between the last two
I used to be a League of Legends only guy. I also played Fifa on the side. Basically: competitive online games only.
The problem is they have a heavily addictive gameplay loop, and it takes seconds to get into a game. Win a game? Dopamine is high and you wanna keep chasing it. Lose a game? Keep playing until you get that high.
I managed to get away from it, and at the moment I'm focusing on 'hard' single player games. Hades, Elden Ring, Megabonk (lol), that kind of thing and I am having an absolute blast. I'm realising that 'hard' gaming is my preference, whether online or offline.
I think it's completely normal to have a preference when it comes to gaming. Playing a completely different genre is more of a risk, when you know you prefer e.g., rogue likes, why would you stray from them?
