While excitement and anticipation for a new game are natural, overhyping can be detrimental to the overall experience. When expectations become too inflated, the actual game might struggle to meet them, leading to disappointment among players. Overhyping can create unrealistic assumptions about gameplay, graphics, and features, which can result in players feeling let down even if the game is objectively good. It's important to maintain a balanced perspective, allowing the game to be enjoyed for what it is rather than what it was overhyped to be.

And 76 wasn't all that bad. There were a lot of really great elements in it that, had 76 instead been a single player game (or at the most a co-op game), it'd have been much more well received.

The world was fun, the new monsters are cool, the combat was basically the same as FO4.
