Which video game did you bounce off of at first, but then tried again later for it to become one of your favorites of all time? (lemmy.world)

@rip_[email protected] @[email protected] DAYS GONE. I gave it a go a couple of times, found the setup to be a bit corny and quit. But when I pushed further, the quality and the effort the devs and the actors put into it came through. Sure the story is safe and gameplay (excl hordes) is conventional, but enjoyable all the same.

Cheating a bit in that it wouldn't be one of my faves but I am gobsmacked Gamespot gave it 5/10 and IGN 6/5. Strong 8 at min. Sad there wont be a sequel to continue the story.

Donkey Kong County Returns. Played it back when I was younger and it didn't click with me. The platforming was too challenging and honestly I think I got too swept up in the hype around the game at the time.

Coming back to it later, I really appreciate it now. The music, animations and platforming is all sublime. It's sequel, Tropical Freeze is my favorite 2d platfomer hands down. It's an absolute joy to play

What finally hooked you and why'd you bounce the first time?
