Not in the way that a professional creator or critic would necessarily see it though, that's my point.

The "novel" twist for that game would be like, breaking the idea of a protagonist entirely by having one of them die unceremoniously and without fanfare after turning a corner.

See: Gallipoli, a film where the whole twist is that the leads go through a standard boot camp training sequence, growing as people, etc and then the last sequence is them getting off the lander boat and immediately being gunned down on the shore as mere extras.

Yeah I love that twist. Don't see it as antagonistic to anything I'm saying

THAT'S the sort of novelty a jaded creator with the Coens' perspective would value - "not having to follow the standard storytelling beats so as to keep those obnoxious groundings paying my bills happy."

Like I reject this idea that simply being familiar with storytelling tropes makes you hate them - fan culture is a blatant disproof. What MIGHT breed weariness and contempt is having to *work for a living replicating them despite no passion for them*

Plenty of critics, including amateur critics, get bored with this stuff too Some people obviously never do but that doesn't make them more genuine fans I don't even think they're even particularly common - superfans of a genre are just as weird as avant-garde deconstructors

The most "normal" way to interact with anything is to be "a casual", which is defined by getting bored/satiated after a while and losing interest

I'm just saying it's not just familiarity or literacy or sophisticated understanding that shapes whether one revels in the repetition and playing with a familiar beat or learns to hate all of it - the jaded perspective is not more sophisticated or literate, it has external causes

And what I read into your tweets, perhaps erroneously, was the declaration-as-fact that people familiar with the art no longer enjoy it and become inevitably jaded, and that is just demonstrably untrue.

It's fairly common, at least

I don't think it's as common as you do
