Hype Fatigue

On the 45th episode of the Trash Taste Podcast (hosted by Connor "CDawgVA" Colquhoun, Joey "TheAnimeMan" Bizinger, and Garnt "Gigguk" Maneetapho), Gigguk describes his chronic condition of being indifferent when a highly-anticipated game (that he intensively follows for an extended period of time) is released. This leads him to coin a new term: "hype fatigue."

Attempt at a formal definition: when one's hopes and expectations in a game, show, or etc. transitions from a fanatic following into abject indifference when the final product is finally released.

Casual definition: getting so hyped that you eventually tucker yourself out and can no longer hype
"Cyberpunk2077 is coming out in 2 months! The development seems to be going well. I can't wait!"

(two months later) "Release date has been pushed back for another month. That's alright."

(one month later) "Another month. This game is gonna be sooooo good!"

(four months later) "... The game released. But I kinda want to play something else. Hype Fatigue is a bitch."
