Witcher 3
Was overwhelmed with most of the game mechanics.
Dark Souls, took a partner to get me to give it another shot, I've played all souls games since lmao
Mass Effect. Played the first one and couldn't get off Eden Prime cause of the shitty starting rifle and the OG game's idea of weapon stability.
Played Mass Effect 2 years later and beat it in a week, just absolutely loved the whole thing. Went back and played the first one after that to get the whole story. Then waited for ME3 to come out.
I still hate the way weapons work in the original ME1 but I pushed through, not surprised it turned people off of the game though.
Dota 2. First time I played it it was not for me, I only played it to hang out with my friends. Many years later I had an itch for it, so I started playing again. And I haven't stopped. It is an excellent game.
Crusader Kings II
Since the Trails series is continuous, it's what I think of with this sort of thing. I bounced off of and had to nibble at Trails in the Sky over a good while until the third game hooked me. I never would have gotten rolling with that series without pandemic lockdowns.
Now, Trails to Azure is firmly in my top 5 games.
Dota2
Horizon Zero Dawn. The first time I played it I could not get into the tutorial, just felt so bland. Then years later I tried it again, pushed through the tutorial, and it's now my all time favorite video game series.
Binding of Isaac
Shattered Pixel Dungeon
