The over saturation of a media franchise so extreme, that potential fans are dissuaded from enjoying the franchise simply because of the behavior of its fans.
"Five Nights At Freddy's is really suffering from the minecraft effect now. The fanbase ruined it for me!"
When a property starts out insanely popular, but then the general consensus is that it's not popular or not cool, and then later it's insanely popular again and (usually) stays that way
"I used to really like Five Nights at Freddy's, then I hated it, now I like it again" -Luna
"Ah yes, the old Minecraft effect" -Christine
The delusion a person is put under when playing the game "Minecraft," in which time elapses much quicker then normal. When under this delusion, an hour may feel like 5 minutes.
The Minecraft effect:
12:24 AM: I should probably be getting off soon. Just gotta finish up mining here, then I'll be done.
1:40 AM: Alright, done- wait, 1:40?! Holy Notch!

When a series has overstayed its welcome because children or annoying fans have taken over a fan base.
The Five nights at Freddy's fanbase is a prime example of the minecraft effect on a series. Other fanbases who have fallen victim to the effect include Undertale, Minecraft, Cuphead
