I am gonna start my last semester in CS so for me it was just generally games. I went pretty fast from the game dev aspiring route over to other professional areas in my HS years. What about you?

Kind of a roundabout answer to your question, but I got into tech bc of my love for gaming and specifically LAN parties. My buddies and I would get together and knew that hubs were needed (this was ~20 years ago) but didn’t know much else, so I ended up figuring out your to build super basic networks. That led to being a quasi TA to the IT teacher in high school and then to a very basic tech support call center job out of HS.
I’ve been in the industry for over 20 years now, and while not every job has been great there’s always more to learn and ways to grow, and I still love what I do. I even came full-circle and for a while got to work for the game developer of one of the games my buddies and I used to play at those LAN parties back in the day!
