[QUOTE="el-remmen, post: 8730699, member: 11"] I meant to include in the OP that this is distinct from "burnout" (see previous poll), which I see as long term, while this is a temporary one day at most kind of thing. As I said in the post, it is not necessarily that the session was bad or a let-down, but as [USER=18]@Ruin Explorer[/USER] suggested, that it could have been so great that everything else feels like kind of a let-down. I certainly did not mean it was "bad." I had plenty of actual hangovers in my younger days and that never stopped me from drinking and having a good time (though as I got older the balanced shifted where the degree of hangover was way out of whack with the amount of drinking and fun, so I had to learn to pace myself and not do it as often). Gaming can also be like that, where some of us as we get older, game for shorter sessions or for fewer people, or only at certain times, etc. . . Doesn't mean we like the games any less or that the potential drained feeling afterwards is wholly negative. [/QUOTE]
