I'm torn by this. I played a lot in the 80s and 90s, and mostly took a hiatus till very recently. I too noticed the games are much easier - even way easier than the 90's point and click adventure games.
However, I also realize that I'm now much busier, and if they were as challenging as the older games, I simply wouldn't be able to play them. I do appreciate that easier games now exist for people like me!
The other thing I noticed: The storytelling in modern games is significantly better!
People still make interactive fiction games that are solely text (think Infocom style), and from what I've heard they are superior to the old commercial ones. So there's always that.
