As you get older, do you find yourself wanting more "comfort food" JRPGs?

I'm 46 and I've been playing JRPGs since the PS1 days (didn't get into them until college, believe it or not). And while I still play all sorts of other genres as well, I do keep coming back to JRPGs.

I've found that over the years, I start to appreciate the more straightforward and less experimental gameplay systems, and the brighter, cheerier motifs and storylines. Dark stuff wears on me a lot more than it used to; just finished the Silent Hill 2 Remake, for example, and though fantastic, I'm really done with that sort of thing for a while. This all doesn't mean I don't like the truly accomplished and in-depth games, and I don't avoid them or anything.

But as I'm playing Visions of Mana now, I realize that this is EXACTLY what I want. Rebirth is still my favorite game of the past decade (that just blew me away), I recently finished Infinite Wealth, and I plan to play Romancing SaGa 2 as well. But Visions of Mana is just that "comfort food" JRPG that I crave a lot these days, and not really for nostalgia purposes (I didn't even play the Mana games besides Legend of Mana)...it's just that this is precisely the sort of simple, fun game that I look forward to playing.

Any other aging JRPG fans feel this way?

EDIT: In reading some of the comments, I should clarify that I don't think of cutesy or "teeny" as "comfort food;" I'm not a huge fan of the kids and teens in my party, either, and actually never have been. It just doesn't bother me as much now.
