I've pretty much been on a media blackout for the past ~15 years since Morrowind. After following the development of Morrowind like a maniac, reading every preview and hunting the official forums for dev posts and so on, I realised when I actually played the game, that I shouldn't have.
It's quite rare I read previews these days and so on. Despite being a huge fan of the Yakuza series, it was still a surprise for me when I played as Majima in Yakuza 0, which was awesome. Or not knowing anything about Dishonored 2 (except the E3 trailer) or Prey before playing them, and so on and on.
On the flip side of things, there is currently no upcoming game I really look forward to. I'm sure there would be if I allowed myself to spend more time with the gaming news.
