History has proven to us many, many times that almost everyone possesses the mental complexity of a young child, and simply adopts the opinions of those around them, whether they be positive or negative. People seem to love simply being a part of the in-crowd, but they will of course never admit to that.
Destiny, Call of Duty, No Man's Sky, Battlefield 1, Pokemon GO, Minecraft, and countless more examples.
So because it's obvious that you will be latching onto another bandwagon in the likely near future, what do you think it will be?
If you claim to not be a simple-minded person, then I'm sure your opinions on the examples mentioned surely don't coincide with the opinions of the bandwagons surrounding them. And if they do, then I have bad news for you.

I try(look at) them first, on other peoples consoles/mobiles and if I like them I get them. An example I can give is Minecraft, I like the relaxing music and ease of gameplay. I can also give an example of a game I'm not going to buy which is popular and that is Battlefield 1. I don't like the gameplay that much. The problem is that some people hate them just because of their sheer popularity but if those games were gone we'd only compare something else as popular garbage.
