Star Ocean the Second Story only because I started with Claude the first time and the, literal, two hours of storyline at the beginning. I saved when I had the chance to go outside of the town and picked it up a month later. Amazing game. The beginning part is a pretty big hurdle though. Even though Dragon Warrior 7 had the same "don't get in a battle for two hours," you actually have control of your characters and the longest part is first dungeon with a lot of puzzles, just no enemies, so it didn't have the same effect.
Grand Theft Auto 4. First time I played it I couldn't get around how the camera turned so slowly to reposition itself behind the card when you made a turn. So didn't play very long. When I picked it up again shortly after, I figured a fix for it, tapping the rearview button every time I made a turn which auto repositioned the camera to the front.
Other than games like this that had major issues I was annoyed with at the beginning of the game, there's really been no games I've thought actually sucked that I came back to and liked later in the future. If I played long enough to get past these issues the first time and still didn't like the game, I guarantee I wouldn't like them in the future.
I've really wanted to like Final Fantasy 12 and tried to replay the game four times. The last time putting 20 hours into the game, literally forcing myself to play through it. Still hated it. I've put in 10 hours of Mass Effect, didn't like it so stopped at one point then when back to it, still couldn't get into it. I liked the dialogue so really wanted to like the game. I think I'm done with it for good and if I do push myself and suffer through the game, it'll be just to complete it so I can write an actual accurate review about it.
