Answer:
At first, video games like Animal Crossing and others became extremely popular during quarantine. People would become highly engaged in playing video games, immersing themselves fully into the games, thinking that this was the hype, that this was what they were going to be doing the duration of the quarantine. Unfortunately, as the quarantine became longer, their interest in video games began to slowly but steadily fade and dwindle. The video games that they were playing were boring and they never got hyped about them, so they stopped playing video games.
