Linear Continuity Syndrome
Is when a Person cannot play or watch a Game / TV Series / Movie that has a deep, connective and emotional story or plot-line without starting over from the very beginning (Sometimes not at all if the story is that Emotional to the person).
If a game has multiple choices and is impacted on the way you play then the first play-through of the game will be determined as Canon to the player (Even if said choices are perhaps not Canon to the game's universe) and any other play-through with different choices will seem wrong.
Even when they do start over from the beginning it will never feel the same and only leave memories of sadness to well up inside the person.

Person 1: Hey man, want to replay the Mass Effect Series?
Person 2: Sorry dude, my Linear Continuity Syndrome would scream at me if I did.
