The latest PlayStation games like The Last of US and God of War. Story is fine, graphics are nice but damn is the gameplay loop boring and easy. I don't care for 'press forward for story into arena fight and back again to press forward for story.
They are great casual games, almost visual novel like, but they don't really offer anything in challenges or deep mechanics.
The Last of Us is fine for about one playthrough. When I played through it I was sad the story was ending but I was kind of glad I didn't have to keep playing. I feel like it stayed just long enough where it didn't wear out it's welcome. Haven't gotten around to the 2nd yet so I have no opinion there.
God of War I've enjoyed in limited doses but I'm with you. I've bought a handful of installments for it and I don't think I got much further than a few hours on any of them. I know it's dumb I keep buying them but for whatever reason they always seem to have a great sale going on everytime I think about giving it another shot. The thing is I've enjoyed other hack and slash games and I enjoy Greek mythology but for whatever reason the gameplay in this series has never clicked with me
Skyrim. I can't quite place it but there's something about it that hits the uncanny valley for me and I can't get immersed. I've tried to get into the game three times and it just never grabs me.
