Emphasis on the some, as I know all too well the old tale of no one not enjoying [subject] more than fans of [subject]. Also to be really clear, this isn’t intended as a dig at those that don’t become jaded, so much as genuine curiosity.

I’ve had the misfortune of really enjoying some genre stories only to find it harder to maintain interest in others I come across due to overfamiliarity making what might otherwise be interesting twists or turns feel a little…Predictable. It’s a bummer that even taking breaks from some genres doesn’t seem to assuage.

    I’ve been a huge fan of Warhammer 40K for sooo long and have not burned out on it. The universe is so expansive and there’s so much there that if you get bored with one just move to a different part of the galaxy lol

    I guess I usually just choose genres that are huge in scope with the content there. There are always different stories and different writing styles. Find niche authors or wildly popular ones their stories are going to be so different it’s amazing. I don’t know if this helps or answers the question 🙁
