For me, 2 things come to mind; Berserk & the Long Walk
Berserk may sound controversial, but I just didn’t have a good time watching the 90’s anime. I felt angry while watching it. I just didn’t like the characters for how dickish they were (especially Guts & Casica) and the setting was too miserable for me. And some of you may go, “but the comic is 10x better” (I know it’s manga, I’m just calling a comic to piss of people) I also just don’t like dark fantasy in general, since they’re edgy, pretentious, and worst of all… they’re ugly. There’s a reason why I never played the Dark Souls games, outside of the difficulty
The Long Walk movie is really well made movie with amazing acting. But man was it a miserable movie to go through. Seeing all those kids getting shot by soldiers for being slower was painful to watch.
Side note: there’s a lot of critically acclaimed stuff I like (Cowboy Bebop & the Dark Knight). It’s just that entertainment is so subjective that it’s not mutually exclusive to writing.
The Witcher games. Everyone tells me how great they are and I have tried playing them, but it just feels like a chore and it never hooks me.
TW2’s combat and overall gameplay I could stomach and even enjoy, but for some reason I could never do the same with TW3 (and RDD too, they just felt so slow). Which is a pity cause it looks like a great game if I could just get over its, well, gameplay. 🙃
I hate Dark Souls 3. It was just so boring to me.
I enjoyed the exploration: you can’t just run through the game since death is around every corner, which made it exiting and rarely that frustrating.
But most Bosses where just so boring. You learn them once, and your reward is that you can actually play the good part of the game again. If I look at something like Monster Hunter, learning the Monster gives you a faster clear time, which makes farming easier and is satisfying that way. Learning a boss in DS reminded me when I was about to quit geometry dash - I just feel my time has been wasted.
There are a lot of cool builds! And you will probably only play one each playthrough, because leveling unlocks a playstyle, but levels get VERY expensive (and I don’t think you can undo levels), so at some point you stop experimenting and just go with what you where already playing the last 20h.
These points made it hard for me to focus on the amazing parts of the game. The atmosphere, the combat and, as mentioned, exploration.
“If you hate it so much, why bother playing through it?”: after beating abyss watchers, I said to my DS Friend that I don’t like this game. He said “Get Good” so I did. It’s still just not a fun game (for me)
Could never get into Seinfeld or Fraiser.
especially what seinfeld is for a while. his co-stars were definitely the better actors.
I recently got into Curb Your Enthusiasm and it made me realize just how bad Seinfeld is. Not the show, but the guy. He’s a terrible actor. The character isn’t too bad, but next to the rest of the cast he stands out like a sore thumb. It’s funny the show is named after him, because I think it would be better without him in it.
He’s a pedophile too, just all around undeserved reputation.
and zionist, that loves to call people woke for not liking his jokes. it was pretty cringe when spoke at his daughthers graduation ceremony at dartmouth.
I did not like Baldur’s Gate 3. I have tried multiple times now and I just don’t like it.
Same. Tried a few times and but the tough fights took so long I’d start getting impatient, especially when I kept losing and had to keep redoing them. People really love that game so feels like I’m missing out but I just couldn’t get into it.
Final Fantasy. There’s too much 😭
Star trek ~ it just didn’t hook me for some reason
nutrek is the most terrible of trek, im too young for TOS, which i could never the hang of. kurtzman practically ruined the franchise+ paramount executives. i dont find SNW good either, something just doesnt fit right with the actors, writing, and acting.

the later ones were total cringe. season 13+ are exactly what they joked about in the earlier seasons. thier alarming Hollywood face transformation(mar-a-lago equivalent, but hollywood style). i dont think the later seasons were well written, like the earlier seasons(the cast were the main contributors in the earlier seasons) but they gave up after 11-12. Kaitlin turning into a a karen, and ROB getting on roids and getting buff, and all the subsequent drama of him trying to sugar coat it. Rob macs, change his name recently. and his very questionable partnership with ryan reynolds, and a retired football star.
supernatural i never watched it when it first came out, like only like during the end of the pandemic i was binging on the clips. S1-S5 were the best, since its by kripke. but 6-15 were just cringey because its also gay/fiction by the fans.
ISAIP after season 12, were wierd and off putting, with mac roid use and him trying to defend it for some reason as a secret knowledge only he knows,(its not a secret people in hollywood are taking peds to make them look buff), and stretching his face to look younger.
1season and 2 were a really god monster of the week hunting show. Downhill from there but still watchable
kripke was the showrunner from 1-5, not that surprising. but season 6-15 was dabbs and the other guy, and they just wrote fanfiction/gay, whatever the audience were fetishizing about the cast. 6,8,11 were decent though, but the rest were just filler, and trying to shoehorn the “jack” character in the show was very telling, having an archnephilim/nephilim was interesting plot though. the show was heavily criticize how they marginalized “pagan” gods though.
