Horizon Zero Dawn. Got about 70% thru and just stopped playing it. I really liked the combat and gameplay but the story/characters were retarded. It was an alright game.

I enjoyed the game but i agree that the characters were... (well at least to me) kind of bland and forgettable even Aloy to be honest, as for the story well considering you only played two thirds of the game you ended up missing the best part, honestly it gets much better at the end (wanna say more but wont spoil).

I didn't quite get into The Last of Us. Friend AI annoyed me a bit and I really have a hard time with those "walk and talk slooooowly to hide that the game is loading the next area" parts. I'm probably in the minority but I'd rather have loading screens instead. I plan to give the game another shot once I get a PS3.

Dark Souls is another one that didn't hook me. The difficulty was a bit too random for me, ranging from super cheap deaths to do nothing and win. The first boss was ok, the next one killed itself; the third was great and the fourth I encountered couldn't do anything if you used ranged weapons. I died at the fifth one, which sent me way back, and the thought of having to replay all of that each time I died really didn't please me so I quit and uninstalled the game. I'll probably get back to Dark Souls at some point but I plan on trying Demon Souls first.

I heard that one was pretty good.

 

Well, I got to the point that I could unlock that shield armor. I think I had only a few main missions/quests leftleft so I went thru most of the plot points.

GTA5...bought it twice, I probably have about 5 hours invested into it.

I find it odd because I beat GTA4 twice, and even I can see 5 as the better game. I just cannot get into it for some reason.

A lot of games.

I'd be here all day trying to list them all, so I'll just cut it short by saying there are a lot of games out there that I didn't or was never into.



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

GTA 5. The missions were poor.



One of my greatest shames as a gamer is not being able to connect with classic JRPG's like for instance Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy. I've tried so many times.

The Last of Us. It takes the over-the-top cut scenes of MGS and jacks it up to 11 on a scale of 1-10. I can handle story. I can handle cut scenes... but that game... wow.



I know I'm going to get hate, but most of Sony's first-party games this generation. With the exception of Bloodborne, most of Sony games this generation gone the route of cinematic experience with average gameplay imo. I can see why people like them, but I'm not overly excited for them.



Kingdom Hearts Franchise, I dunno, RPG is my favorite genre but the mix of Disney with - anything else - throws me out of the game immediately. I liked the battle system tho.

RE4 - this game killed the franchise for me, luckily RE7 brought back the horror.

FFX - Even tho I love the simplicity of the battle system and the world setting, it has one of the worst cast of characters I can think of any FF. Usually I end up disliking 1 character in every FF game but in this case I only liked 1.

GTA
Halo

I dunno a bunch of others.



The Persona series, I just can't get into a high school simulator game.
