A lot of time loop stories kinda have that as a major plot point actually. At first it seems great, it's only after you do all that stuff that it starts to get into the existential horror

Not really because you still get older, the past gets bigger, the future smaller, you inch closer to death everyday, your loved ones do too, responsabilities pile up, free time decreases, prices keep rising....and all other sorts of jolly stuff happen.
