"fun" - amusing, entertaining, or enjoyable
Picking crops in Farmville or grinding mobs to level up in a JRPG can both be said to be not fun, but it can be rewarding to do both of those things, and that's what I'm hoping to get out of Death Stranding. It might not be super thrilling gameplay, but perhaps the narrative and world-building make up for it in some way.
I do believe it's difficult to put into words, but I can sort of see how a game not being considered "fun" can still be worth your time, although I had to look up the definition of fun to be sure, as I've probably been using it the wrong way all these years. :P
