Literary analysis.
It predates most contemporary forms of storytelling, but it isn't exactly easy to do. If you like to explore ideas and move beyond the mechanics, that is. It's not like you're trying to reinvent the wheel; rather, you're adding the sum of all its parts to create cohesion. I think literature does that. I disagree that simply adding more video games would help clarify anything. Especially if it's a specific way of conveying that idea.
I like to learn new skills and study a lot.
Literature has done this for far longer than any of us will ever grasp. I'm telling you.
