Noun; The feeling of depression, sadness, or sads a person encounters after finishing any The Legend of Zelda game. This condition sets on immediately after the euphoria when the boss is beaten, as the player suddenly realizes that there is nothing new to play in the game, and he needs to find some other game or hobby to enjoy, similar to parting with a best friend after years of enjoyment.
Post-Zelda Depression, or PZD, can have a prognosis of anywhere between 2 days to the rest of one’s life, but typically lasts until a new Legend of Zelda game is released or bought.
Symptoms include sadness, extreme disappointment, and often hours of doing nothing since someone’s previous occupation has now been reduced to a repeating memory.

I finished Ocarina of Time.
I finally slammed the Master Sword into Ganon’s head, and felt so proud. Then, I realized that the game freezes at the end of the credits. I wouldn’t get to explore my new world without Ganon.
I then realized that all I had left was stuff that I had already done — there were no post-boss tasks, no reward. Only the option to do it again and again.
I developed Post-Zelda Depression for a week. it felt like one of my friends had died. I longed to play more… to talk to Saria one more time…
Eventually , I was able to let it all go, especially after I bought the Wind Waker.

When in order to complete a project, you have to obtain multiple things or achieve multiple goals that incur some difficulty to get, some of which involve their own little Zelda Quests. Usually caused by disorganised, balls-to-the-wall tweaking over the past week or not enough good nookie.
Getting that room painted is gonna be such a goddam Zelda Quest, I'm burnt just thinking about it.....
