This is a little reductive but I think, as you go into adulthood, you have to handle more challenges in your real life so games don't serve the same purpose anymore.
For example, I do a lot of pvp at my job and while commuting so I don't need that much of it in my gaming. I still get the irch every now and then but WoW, LoL, and CS pvp rarely interests me anymore when they were my life back when I was a student.
I find I play more chill games like cities skylines, total war, and sometimes conan exiles or valheim. Maybe fire up Skyrim or Bannerlord every now and again. Gaming helps me turn my brain off now rather than provide extra challenge to it.
