you always like to be in control
i'm putting you on speed dial
"you think this is cute? wait til you see my sword."
there's a reason the announcer does that very pronounced pause between "Duck" and "Hunt"
that's pretty much it. if you don't like the first, you probably won't like the second. if you DO like the first, you might prefer the second one. personally i bounced off of both of them around 10-15 hours in, for similar reasons, but I did find the 2nd game a little more exciting.
Everyone thinks u a freak but really u like it old-school
Tanooki Mario (comfy man in pajamas), and uhhhh...well i don't really have a Smash main, I like to play all kinds of different styles. Which I guess also fits the question....
For me, the turnoff with movies specifically is the hard time commitment. It's rare that I have 2-3 hours free uninterrupted, and even if I do, I'm more drawn to the activity that I could put down after an hour if I really wanted to. Also, I'm usually picking up a game or TV show that I've already started, so I'm jumping into a story that I'm already invested in, rather than starting a whole new one.
Writing in a lot of TV/movies are just too, well, stupid
Personally i find the quality bar for writing in games (especially AAA games) is much lower. A well-known game with writing that matches a mid-tier movie usually gets heralded as GOTY. I agree with your point about emergent stories, though.
The social aspect of going to watch a movie in a dark room on a screen while everyone around me loudly "whispers" to each other and checks their phones. Not to mention the screen that is lower quality than my television at home.
It's a double-edged sword. But f2p has become so dominant that certain types of games almost NEED to be f2p to be relevant. See Concord for a recent example.

did you hear that Dr Disrespect tried to make a comeback the other day with a Deadlock stream?
(beehaw.org)
[alt text: several screenshots of posts on twitter. The bottom post is a tweet from @DrDisrespect on twitter, which says, "LIVE in 30 minutes. I just installed Deadlock... what the hell is this game? If it's from Valve, I must know. I must... understand the future of multiplayer gaming." This Dr Disrespect tweet is a screenshot being shared by @IntelDeadlock on twitter. Their post includes text that says, "Dr Disrespect is playing Deadlock today! Please avoid queue if you are a minor". The top post is another, later tweet from @IntelDeadlock on twitter, which says, "His entire team left his very first game". The post includes a screenshot of Dr Disrespect's livestream.]
[alt text: text that says, "When your girlfriend says, 'it's either me or runescape'". Below the text is a stock photo of a man and woman sitting next to each other on a couch and looking away from each other. Between them, there is a floating screenshot from the crafting menu in Runescape, and the cursor is highlighting the words, "Make X".]
[alt text: text that says, "when your friend is in an argument online and asks you for memes". Below the text is a screenshot from The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, where the shopkeeper Ulfberth War-Bear is looking at the player character and saying, "Looking to protect yourself, or deal some damage?"]
[alt text: a semi-surreal meme image on a plain white background. Two characters from Dark Souls are saying, "My lord, we have absolutely ESSENTIAL lore information for the player. Should we make a cutscrene for it?". They are looking at Hidetaka Miyazaki, who has the From Software logo emblazoned over him, and he is replying, "NO...Put it in the description of a COOKBOOK". There are several cookbook item icons floating between the characters.]
