Can hype make good games less fun for you?

I don't usually get overhyped. I think it's because I've always got games to get through. A massive playstation backlog. That keeps my mind off upcoming releases.

If the last guardian ever comes out the disappointment will be fucking hilarious for most, while I'll likely enjoy it way more because I've zero hype for it.

I usually buy a game I would replay a few times, otherwise I would buy it when it's on sale. I still have a huge backlog though.

does your backlog have a game that you didn't finish for some reason but the fanbase and praise it's still getting made you never return to it?

My backlog is mainly games I got for free with ps plus.  Along with others I bought on sale like shadow of mordor and metro last light
