Basically all of them. The only games I'm ever hyped about are ones I have personal reasons for. That means it's by a developer of a game I really like such as Bennett Foddy or Zachtronics, or it's in a very niche genre that I love but rarely see and don't have the search terms for (Voices of the Void, etc.).
I find this tends to happen as your gaming tastes age over time. You start to find what you really like and then fall into a niche where you start to know the space really well and then all these big game marketing hype cycles just become noise.
