Hype has ruined too many things for me so I tend to ignore it. I take everything on skeptically but I find this method allows me to enjoy things more when they are genuinely good.

I was really skeptical of P3 when it came out but by having such low expectations, I was blown away by how amazing it really was. I now fear that my praising it so much to my friends on this forum might accidentally result in the game getting too hyped up and leaving people disappointed.
