I think it's just reflective of the fact that gaming in general is boring right now.
PS5 and Xbox Series are having a slow start in terms of noteworthy games, their sales patterns are similar to last gen, Switch is doing great but is on cruise control, not a lot of exciting new stuff has been announced recently, etc.
E3 should give things a boost as we should hopefully then have some new games or new looks at games we know little about currently to talk about.
