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

Super Smash Bros (every incarnation). Never got the hype
I think it's that Ssb is a Tekken/Street Fighter-type game for people who grew up in the nintendoverse 😊 I don't own Smash Bros but will play if i link-up with friends who do & wish to play.
I personally like: the colours; the fact it's "clean" and PG; the music (it's arcade fun!) ; the characters ive grown up with & others from games i never played but now make me curious.
As a concrete example, i never rly knew much about Starfox or Metroid but when I played smash bros with my friends who used fox & falco or Samus Aran they looked fun. It didn't lead to much but I did end up learning more about their respective games.
Ditto goes for Shiek from Zelda & that numbers guy Mr Game & Watch 🤣😭 The memories !!
ftr I like Kirby 🙈🌻
Had u already considered this or has my text helped? 😄 Have a good day :)

That’s funny, I was thinking of finally picking up Cyberpunk since I’m winding down on tears of the kingdom. I’ll still give it a shot but if it’s like Witcher 3 I don’t think I will enjoy it.
I didn’t pay a lot of the Witcher 3, but I completed cyberpunk. They are very different games. It has a slight rpg system where tire character levels up and get new abilities. But it’s its own thing.

I can't stand pretty much any kind of shooter. Is that mostly because I suck? Probably, but I still don't like them.

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.

All those Telltale episodic games, like The wolf among us and The Walking Dead. It's so boring and slow that it makes me both extremely mad and uncomfortable.
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.

Skyrim. I can't quite place it but there's something about it that hits the uncanny valley for me and I can't get immersed. I've tried to get into the game three times and it just never grabs me.
The latest PlayStation games like The Last of US and God of War. Story is fine, graphics are nice but damn is the gameplay loop boring and easy. I don't care for 'press forward for story into arena fight and back again to press forward for story.
They are great casual games, almost visual novel like, but they don't really offer anything in challenges or deep mechanics.

Witcher 3. I tried to get into the game multiple times, and I have the complete edition on PC. I don't know why exactly it isn't clicking for me, but I just can't vibe with it.
