It really just comes down to personal experience and preferences. Some people never seem to tire of games. Others have higher expectations of progress and feel uninspired by new releases. Some people are more prone to boredom than others. Some people have other activities to hold their interest.
It's healthy to take breaks, so take advantage of your boredom like I did. It's easy to become desensitized to activities over time. You'll probably find them enjoyable once more after some time off. In the meantime take on another hobby, educate yourself, hang out with friends. Enjoy life!
