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)

BL1 for me I wasn't able to even start. With 2 I got so many hours into it, but once I got to ultimate vault hunter mode, it sucked because it was a spam fest of the highest powered legendary and any other weapon did no damage.

Same for me (both 1 and 2). I can't get into the artstyle, gameplay, characters, humor, or story. I really wanted to though because the game sounds like something I would enjoy on paper.

Played the first one on the 360 and I won the second one here, put 17 hours in it, but It was so boring and repetitive, I feel bad for winning it :I

I thought it was great watching gameplays and videos, but I was wrong.

Borderlands 1 is fun, but you do really need the expansions, zombie island and the secret armory. at least those 2.

Its extremely fun if you play co-op between 3-4 people, since the games is full of glitches and lag, its plain funny. One of my friends made the most hilarious comment when playing borderlands. but it wont be funny if i write it down.

i played it over 100 hours on steam + about the same time with a pirated copy (Borderlands was my first legit game in Steam). The downside is that is WAY too repetitive due to the lack of different enemies (thats why you need the expansions)

BL is funnier due to handsome jack, the problem is that the classes are not that appealing.

I was under the impression people played TF2 to collect hats. It's weird to me but I figure people have to collect something. For some folks it's digital game hats.

(loving elder scrolls and fallout :D )
The strange thing is Borderlands for me. Maybe I should have tried the 1st in coop. I played it alone, and like hated it. On the other hand Borderlands 2 is one of my favourites.
Even though I have a couple shooters (mostly from bundles) I don't understand how somebody can consider himself a mainly FPS-gamer ( thinking about PVP - shooters. I know there is such thing. But after quite a short time it becomes enfuriating when enemy repeatedly shoots you, camps, or just overall, there is no real 'step into the game' feeling, you're just entering a random game and somehow most players shoot you with closed eyes from the other part of the map. -> quite high learning curve, with like no good atmosphere for learning.

me too kinda :) I enjoyed the Bioshock 1 story, but the gameplay of those games i dislike for some reason, its slow and repetitive for me and the story drags on til it gets to good parts, like restoring power to continue onwards to your actual goal, they are good but i find the gameplay annoying making it a chore for me to play, but i played first 2 and will play Infinite sometime defo :D also i find myself looting every room which is an annoyiing habit i do xD

Left4Dead 2 >_<
I love L4D1, but playing L4D2 just annoys me. I have no explanation for it, it's just that way for some reason that I fail to realize.

And Torchlight II.
I usually ALWAYS enjoy that kind of games; the questing, the graphic, the leveling... all was just fine, but for some reason, I was bored outta my mind with it.

I got very bored of L4D2 after about 15 hours with friends. I basically refuse to play it now because after 2 savehouses I get a headache (just like TES and Fallout)

Depends on the AI for me honestly, a lot of them suffer from bad AI. AI that "cheats" is not a good AI, it is just lazy and not really that fun to fight.

Terraria.

I have tried to play it and I just can't find the appeal in it. It's not bad in any way, I just... I dunno, lack the creativity to play around with it?

We should get together on a server sometime. If you're having a hard time figuring out the appeal, I can help you find stuff to do in the game.

Thanks for the offer, chcoman123, but I have a friend who has played 200 hours, so I could ask him if he'll help me around. But I think you're both (you and Retro123) right, that I just don't know my way around the game, so I am missing out on the fun.

Yeah. At first, when I played Minecraft and Terraria for my first time, I had no idea what to do and thought it was awful. The moment I figured out what to do though, I got addicted. Maybe once you're shown the ropes by your friend, then we could play on a server sometime? That would be awesome.

I had this problem once, but usually someone helping you how to play the game makes it a lot more fun. I didn't like it at first because it was too hard to pick up what to do. I didn't even know there were NPC's or bosses in it until my friend helped me.
