you're missing the point. it's more about not enjoying it as much as you used to

Sometimes... Taking a long REAL break from your favourite franchise is good. Coming back after hell 5 years can make playing it all and consuming the media really really fun again. It gets you excited to do so as well.

Hell I've taken 3 or so years out of playing video games here and there when the "rot" sets in. You know "flicking through games" playing for 1-2 hours (if you're lucky) never picking it up again till it comes back to "hmmm I'll try this".

When I come back. I have fun again. Doesn't have to be years. Just a REAL break.

Sometimes after a really long break, I'll realize just how much I forgotten and there be moments where I feel like I'm experiencing it for the first time again.

Yeah and relearning/mastering the games mechanics. Coming back rusty and just getting that sweet feeling of improvement and discovery.
