Games that you have tried to like

[Never]

Skyward Sword is one I really had to force myself to play, but did it out of love for the franchise. I was impressed by many of the ideas in the game even if it felt like a tedious slog to work through.

I made myself play Monster Hunter 3 for some time before realising I just wasn't getting it and I wasn't having fun.

Skyrim. I tried to like it three times. The first two times I put some time into it and concluded that I was going off the Bethesda formula. I thought, perhaps, with so many open world games and mmos, Bethesda games just aren't as special anymore, but then I played Fallout 4 and it ended up my favorite game of theirs, so, convinced it was just my state of mind when I tried it, I reinstalled Skyrim, loaded it up with mods and gave it one final shot. It's just boring.

Smash bros wii U... I put time in, I read websites and watched youtube videos trying to learn how to play, I just don't get it.

Tekken... see above.

Black and White. This was a game I was hyped for and force myself to play through most of it before I finally realise that underneath this glossy ambitious game was the most tedious, poorly thought through gameplay ever. The challenge basically boils down to constantly be telling these stupid little people what to do all the time because they lack the initiative to do the most basic task without instruction.

Body Harvest... I was hyped for the idea when it was announced as an N64 launch game and I snapped it up when, many years latter, it was released. I ignored negative reviews because... well.... what do they know.... As it turned out quite a lot. Slow, messy and failing on so many levels. I know there's the idea that nintendo ruined this game but honestly there's nothing done well, be it mechanical, technical or anything.
I know I know. Surely it's not the devs fault... they made GTA... But, if they started making a good game and Nintendo tampered with it, what part of this game belonged to this fabled good game? The combate? the graphics? the controls? the SLOWWWWWW indoor sections? It's just start to finish terrible. Nintendo might well have tried their hardest to make this a worse game but the devs had already technically over stretched themselves and I recone game was always going to be a turd.

Discworld Noir. Back in the day I loved point and click adventures... I liked and respected Terry Pratchett... I put time and effort into playing this, and really tried to like it... but I didn't.

Starship Titanic. Back in the day I loved point and click adventures... I liked and respected Douglas Adams... I put time and effort into playing this, and really tried to like it... but I didn't.

Zelda the phantom hourglass... This is a rare Zelda I didn't like... But right now... ermm... I'm tired and I need to sleep. Night night
