I feel like I always talk about myself when me and my husband talk. /=

Like currently we don't have electricity so we just started talking, and I realize the reason I always am talking, either about myself or some topic I find interesting, is because he always talks about video games (and sometimes other media), whenever he is talking. I would be very interested if he talked about himself, but he never does. Aside from news, which we both discuss together, he only talks about things that are soooo uninteresting. 😩

I mean I love video games, but it's boring to hear about some experience he had inside a game I never even played lol. How do I make him talk more about himself, or just real life stuff? 🥺

A lot of men see the stuff they like as being who they are. Consider that he's telling you these things because he wants you to know them about him. Consider playing those video games he mentions the most. And even before you play the games he has if he's telling you how he felt then you can tell him a situation you were in that made you feel the same way. That might open him up to responding to a real world occasion where he felt that.
