I'm gonna drown in downvotes once I say that I don't like the Grand Theft Auto series. I'm actually serious, I never understood the appeal for those games.

Working to love the games… but all of N64!! Who has three arms?!
All kidding aside this year I’ve made an effort with N64 and am finding the gems and that a lot of games are just nicer compared to PlayStation where file size limitations don’t burn the system
Baldur's Gate and Elden Ring I tried to like but just couldn't get into either of them despite giving them both a fairly long warmup time. I get the allure of both, but the play style or the pacing just aren't for me.
Same on Witcher III. I'm the target audience of that game - I love RPGs of all kinds, have played all the classic series like TES, Baldurs Gate, Planescape, Icewind Dale, Dragon Age, you name it. I even play ttrpgs multiple times a week.
I wanted to like Witcher III so bad that I forced myself all the way through the game to an optimal ending. But I just never started enjoying it. The world just feels... Flat. Fake. You do exactly what CD Projekt Red envisions or you hit a stone wall of empty game world.
Despite the skill trees and inventory and all of it, it just doesn't feel like an RPG at all. It feels like a Disney ride on rails.
Final Fantasy. Haven’t played any of them, and I’m not interested in playing them at all.
