The reason why you can't enjoy games is up to you to answer, there could be several reasons. I asked myself this question a couple months ago and for me it was that I hated my job and instead of looking for a better one I would only play games to avoid thinking about it. I was unhappy. I thought all the time during job about having more free time. Hope this isn't your issue because I haven't solved this one yet.

Were they? I knew these games were going to be moderate disappointments at best from the start. Did nobody else see this coming?

The reason so many games suck nowadays is the same reason movies suck nowadays. They've been corporatized. Studios would rather make a disappointing safe game that makes at least some sort of profit than a riskier game that might be Game of the Year material but is risky and uncertain.

People want to blame capitalism but the real culprit is idiots buying these games before watching reviews or thinking 2 seconds about how lackluster these games are inevitably going to end up being.

They put these games out because they can, and people will pay for them, for whatever reason.
