Do you think alot of these developer are jaded because they create the same game over and over again, and the fact that they don't get to branch out and inovate as mush as they want to? would you say you are bored of being a gamer/developer?

 We actually didn't get far into why he was jaded because I had to leave in a hurry (half sick, half I just had to be somewhere else).  With this person at least I don't think it's because he's working on the same thing all the time because now he's working on something that's pretty different than the other things he's worked on.  It could be they just get burnt out from working so much (because you do work a lot), could be working on the same thing over and over, or could be any number of things.  I'm sure he'll be in my office again tomorrow and we'll get back on the subject.

As for me, I'm not burnt out at all.  Though I imagine if I spent all day working and then came home and spent all day working on the same things in my free time I would be burned out quickly.  Luckily I do things like pen and paper gaming, Magic: the Gathering, or just hang out with friends to give myself a break.
