I need to find a way to enjoy Fallout and Elder Scrolls, but I just can't. They are praised so much but it's like I get a headache or something when I play them, like as if they are moving too slow or there is too much micromanagement in combat. I enjoy in-depth leveling systems and combat systems in games, but I can't stand Fallout or ES for some reason, as my attention span goes away so much quicker. I wish I knew why so I could get a mod to maybe help.

Anyway, question for you all is: Are there any games you don't like (but everyone else seems to love them) but you have no explanation why?
(I know, very specific topic, but it just came to my mind)

Mirror's Edge, it was so boring... And what completely killed it was the "totally-unpredictable-plot-twist", the fighting there was so bad and boring, immediately quit and uninstalled.

If you actually fight yeah it sucks, apart from the one time you HAVE to there is really no reason to and it onlu subtracts from the game.

All Bethesda RPGs, especially Skyrim. I had a hell of a better time playing Kingdoms of Amalur. I also hate football games like FIFA and PES, actually all sports simulators in general. I also don't like Halo and Call of Duty, but I can most definitely say why I don't like them. They bore the hell out of me.

Well, the first thing that comes to mind is Minecraft. Then, Payday and the obvious one, COD (from MW2 to the present day, the first ones were actually good). Oh and every MOBA and MMO that exists.

Well those vote-to-get-free greenlight games are usually crap anyway, that's why they want promotion. People just advertise it because everyone on steamgifts (look at the name for god's sake) has a lust for free games, good or bad.

Those building games like Minecraft. Then there is the open world survival games like DayZ. And THEN there's games that combine the two like Rust. I can't stand any of it

RPG takes a lot of time to play.If u played a lot of them u get bored even if they are with high ratings.Try diffrent genere.FPS or something else fast paced and that can be played online to vent urself.after that u might get that urge to play rpg again and there is the chance to get into that kind of games.

I dislike any MOBA games, I usually play those only if I have someone to play with.

I pretty much know why I personally (don't) like certain games. And most of the time I have a fairly good idea why someone would subjectively like it; so I really can't list a game that I've come in contact with that falls into that category.

That being said some games are objectively unplayable but, a niche audience that will support it because it is something that fits their needs and they are willing to ignore its flaws still exists.

tl;dr don't judge gamers, try to understand them

Age of Empires and the like( Total Rome, Civ etc.). CoD, Halo, whatever other FPS game of the playstyle. I also find it really hard to get into those older RPG games. I recently bought Avernum : Escape from the Pit on Steam, when it was on sale, and it's ridiculous how mind-melting it is for me. Honestly, Fallout 1&2 were the same, but they had a certain charm to them that had me playing till' the end ( But I still can't beat Fallout 2 because of bugs and the last area's battles are just too long. It's either that my companions get ganged up on and die(Which I kept on trying to avoid) or the game bugs out and... It screws up somehow. My character is pretty damn OP at this point, what with the insta-kill criticals with the gauss rifle(Seriously, that gun is just too good, especially with sniper!).

Team Fortress 2 is another game I can't get into. Of all the hours I've spent into it, I have not improved at all. I pretty much gave up when I realized that it was a waste of my time that I would never get back. The community, from my experiences, weren't very nice either.
