Hype-vision

When you become blind to how bad a game or other piece of media is, due to the advertising and hype built up around it. Causing you to defend a clearly bad piece of content from criticism for no reason.

Similar to tunnel-vision

People had really bad hype-vision for fallout 76 when it first came out, the games still crap but it’s getting better.
