recent: tears of the kingdom, or as i like to call it botw 1.2, its the same thing all over again just with one or two added gimicks, the open world is dead, npcs are boring and nintendo just got away with it like that

not so recent: i cant stand persona 5, joker and his entourage are annoying teenagers, the time management is a horrible gameplay addition and the artstyle is just a visual overstimulation

with that being said,~~ plz dont kill me~~

Sea of Thieves. I tried it but something about the camera/movement made me physically sick right from the start. I'm also not too big of a fan of the character designs. I get pirates are scruffy and rowdy, yarrr, but they didn't seem to have ones that looked somewhat like a regular person.

I hate the character designs too but my partner dragged me into playing it and once I saw passed them it can be a lot of fun. A lot of it does revolve around having a good/fun crew because otherwise you end up struggling too much with the mechanics to have fun.

But yeah there's no getting around that motion sickness.

Totally agree on Persona 5. Maybe it's just because I don't particularly care about anime, but I just couldn't get into it. It just feels like hours and hours of boring anime filler episodes.

I'm also not a big fan of turn based combat, so that didn't help.

Uncharted 1. A lot of people told me that I have to play the uncharted games, they’re groundbreaking. I can understand that the early games were ahead of their time when they released, but they aged badly. The physics, the story, the gameplay - everything feels just like trash.

If you don’t have any nostalgic memories of the game and you play it for the first time today, you’ll think it sucks.

I feel you. I've never been able to get into Zelda games.

Dont get me wrong, I fucking love twilight princess and links awakening is the pinnacle of Zelda to me

But the botw saga? No, just no

Celeste.

I don't usually like platformers and Celeste didn't change my mind.

Maybe not quite the spirit of the question but: Endwalker killed FFXIV for me.

Played the game a ton from ARR to Shadowbringers, but can't bring myself to even log in any more. The house I've had for seven years will be demolished later this week and I don't even care.

I know people loved the story but I hated it. Job design, job balance and encounter design are in terrible states. Patches are taking longer. The new content they added for this expansion has been bland and uninteresting.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. The mechanics and boss fights got old quick.

Ni No Kuni. I kept hearing so many great things about the game, but I found the combat dull and boring. I dropped it as soon as I got the second party member.
