Being quick to judge videogames definitely seems like a good idea, why waste your time with a game you're not into when there are so many different ones you could play that you'd enjoy more?

yeah i generally agree with this! the one major exception i can think of for me is dark souls, really glad i went back to those and stuck with them lol. they're some of my absolute favourites now and very meaningful to me. struggling to think of a game i played a decent amount of and ultimately hated... i think PUBG probably has the worst ratio there lol. i'm not all that much of a singleplayer gamer so something has to really stand out for me there to commit to it.

Oddly enough, I had the same experience with Dark Souls! It took dozens of hours on both 1 and 3 before it actually finally "clicked" for me, but now I love them (even 2) and do replays not infrequently (thinking of doing another one soon, actually). I am basically entirely a singleplayer gamer, so we have opposite experiences there, I don't think I've ever enjoyed a multiplayer game (well, unless you count Untitled Goose Game which I played through with my sister, you can cause so much extra havoc with two geese! Very fun!)
