God, I know that feel. I keep contemplating buying Destiny's DLC but I know it'll just be more disappointment. If you're in the same boat as me, I think the best option is to wait for the Taken King physical edition to come out since that comes with the complete package for cheaper than buying the previous expansions AND The Taken King separately.
Anyways, on to your actual question. Now that I think about it, even though I played just about everything I got my hands on almost my whole life, I still focused on specific genres for long periods of time.
When I started, my parents were gamers too, they gave me pokemon and Commander Keen but I eventually moved onto whatever they played, Ace Combat, Tomb Raider, and MedEvil.
In my early teen years I got more into JRPG's and pretty much any other Japanese made game I could get my hands on. Dark Cloud 2, Armored Core, Rogue Galaxy, Final Fantasy XII, Kingdom Hearts, stuff like that.
Mid teens I got into shooters, ranging from Metal Gear Solid to Call Of Duty, I actually got into multiplayer then, it's weird looking back on it now considering I hate player interaction in just about everything except for Souls games at this point.
Then I got into Western/western-styled RPG's, so everything from Dragon Age to Demon's Souls.
I think the biggest change to my gaming habits has come relatively recently with my full access to PC gaming. I've become completely indecisive. Even the games I get extremely excited for, like The Witcher 3, just end up sitting on my hard drive (though I have played it for 50 hours, I'm nowhere near done with the story). I've been so indecisive that I just end up watching people on Twitch or playing music. I probably just need to take a break from gaming for a while.
