Overrated

Something that is important to many people. But, similar to the telephone game- “something” starts as a simple idea, but transforms into something different, or new. Many people are involved; the thing has lost its originality. What began as a simple idea has changed and now it’s just overrated.

Overrated

Something that earns too much merit despite not being as great as other people claim it is. (Usually has a very nerdy social reject fanbase who will criticize you for not liking it.)

Undertale
Christopher Nolan
Game of Thrones

Nintendo 64
PlayStation 1
'90s nostalgia
Modern indie rock/pop
Tom Brady
Michael Brown

ALL of these things are highly overrated.

overrated

A term used to describe something that gets more hype and credit than it's actually worth.
