Yeah, I'm 38. I don't care about story, dialogs, whatever. I only care about game feeling and mechanics. If there are cutscenes I can't cancel, I'm out in a blink. Hence, I usually play competitive online games (currently a lot of Wild Rift), because they don't come with all that baggage.

A few good single-player games I played that have the story unfold in the background while you play:

- Hotline Miami (fast action, only few cutscenes, nice retro style)

- Dysmantle (story unfolds mostly through objects in the world)

- Raft (survival game, story is completely told through objects in the game)

- Valheim (almost no cut-scenes, but gets a bit repetitive after a while)
