Bastion, the hack and slash is too mechanically simple to be engaging and the narrator shtick gets old real quick.
Papers Please. However, Obra Dinn is one of my favorite games.
Pretty much all Blizzard games if you exclude SC and WC customs.

God of War and COD.
I never liked COD, I thought the first two games were ok, they looked like copies of Medal of Honor but with better graphics. I much preferred the freedom that Battlefield and the original Operation Flashpoint gave the player.
God of War is a very strange game, I don't know why, but it seems boring to me.
Gta V was a downgrade from Gta 4 in all the ways that mattered.
All of the dark souls shit, Steelrising is the only one that looks promising.
I could not get into Terraria no matter how many times I tried.
Path of exile is a bloated, convoluted mess with shoehorned multiplayer elements. The mtx are also awful and do not get nearly enough hate as they should.
half life 2 was a glorified tech demo with so many bloviating "immersive first person cutscenes" that it felt like a parody.
Halo 3's campaign was not good and the multiplayer was just ok. Forge was not revolutionary, it only seemed like it because it was locked to console with no mod tools.
Borderlands, tried two different games over the past 7 years and neither time was it fun. Fps games should not have arpg items.
The mario, zelda, and pokemon series. The little I've seen of them made me never want to play them, like pokemon is literally just cock fighting but with epic wacky monster-pets.
Diablo 2 resurrection, the remaster, does not have a skill bar unless you use a controller. I will never willingly put myself through garbage controls straight from the 2000's when I could just play Grim Dawn instead.
I loved Halo, but I played so much Halo back in the day, and a couple of stretches since, that now when I jump into any part of halo 1, 2 or 3 I am instantly bored to tears. I played it all on like Legendary and half the time I was reloading to keep every Marine alive or some shit. I have seen every corridor just tooooo many goddamn times
Oh also despite being that much into Halo, I never finished Infinite. Didnt hate it just had no motivation to keep playing. I think the meaningless ally respawn farms were part of it

Tribes 2. Don't get me wrong. It's a great game, amazing even. But Tribes was a more focused experience.
