This is an older video, but has some good points.
To the first point about developers making safe games for profits, I have to say I'm impressed with how far Unreal Engine has progressed in the last few years. It's much easier to make a professional looking indie game using UE5 than ever before, and I really hope we see a resurgence in good games based on fun concepts in the near future. As much as I hated Fortnite, the massive influx of cash really helped drive UE development forward.
And as far as the overstimulation stuff goes... I've been busier than I used to be recently, so the game time I do have now does seem a lot more fun. I'm not "chasing the dragon" with games anymore, because I barely have time to play the games that I want to play. And I find it easier to walk away from grindy games because I enjoy doing other shit with my life.
My #1 piece of advice for gamers is to just start working out for 30 minutes every other day. Not only does it improve your physical state, but getting up and forcing yourself to do something else that isn't based on your brains reward center, even for a short while, makes coming back to your game that much better.
