Wow. Just curious, what games do you like?
Chaos Rings on the iPad. So. Painfully. Boring. It was one of the most expensive apps I've purchased too.

Top 5 games i cant get into-

1) Elder Scrolls series-Way too nonlinear to the point where i forget about the main quest and eventually never finish the game.

2) Jagged Alliance series-Takes way too long to finish battles. Im more into faster turnbased games and this drives me crazy with how long the battles are. Otherwise not to bad.

3) Gothic Series-The controls are awful. Its a nice game storywise but the controls are made to be difficult to the player.

4) Neverwinter Nights- The game never runs like it should. Ive had 3 computers that all had the requirements and the game would crash in gametime and cause me to lose a gig of memory. The game is otherwise more of a hack and slash than an rpg and the story isnt that great.

5)Lionheart-Mindless hack and slash which could have been a great game if it wasnt so clickfesty and utilized the dialog trees.
Not on GoG, but... Assassin's Creed 2 (never played the first which I heard was worse). I dunno, game is probably the worst I've ever played in my life in terms of "fun" at least (I've played far less polished games that were much more enjoyable) The setting was really cool, but the game felt like there was no challenge to it whatsoever, just freerunning by holding a button down and then mash a couple buttons to kill a series of guards and then do it all over and over and over and over. Worst game ever for me.

From GoG, Jagged Alliance 2. Which is weird because I LOVE SIlent Storm which is the same genre. JA2 just didn't grab me in the same way, maybe because I just like the WW2 setting of SS a lot more, and also really missed the physics engine it had. In theory I should really enjoy it, but I just don't like it anywhere near as much as SS.

Anything Bethseda makes also bores me to tears. Open world games just aren't my thing and I pretty much agree with Yahtzee's review of Oblivion that it felt like the whole thing was just copy pasted over and over to make it seem big when it was really just miles of endless blandness.

Also the Half Life series. Just not very interesting to me for some reason.

Amnesia The Dark Decent - I really wanted to like this game but I just couldn't get into it. I like games that let me sneak around in the dark, but the PC in in this game is actually afraid of the dark. Also when the "monsters" do show up there is no way to confront them, your only option is to run and hide. And running away just ain't in my nature.

Diablo - I was excited to get my hands on this game but it got very boring very fast. I had to micro manage movement so as not to walk off in areas that I didn't want to activate yet and the combat was not very engaging. Y ou move your mouse over an enemy until it becomes the attack icon and then you click on it, this is about as exciting as watching a friend play the game and telling them what button to hit.

Torchlight - I tried the 2 hour demo because I knew nothingit about itand but heard it was really good. It took almost 20 minutes for me to quit and uninstall. See Diablo.

Baldurs Gate - I've tried this one a few times and I can never get past the 2nd disc. Combat just feels wrong to me. Keeping good tabs on a group of characters like this would have been much easier, and more interesting to me, if it were turn based. About the time the story gets interesting, manually pausing the combat to make best use of the characters gets tedious. Also most of the companions I got were either usless or annoying. I usually just promoted most of them to Meat Shield so I could save on healing supplies.

The Witcher - Now granted I only played the demo, but I couldn't even finish that. The character progression looked very interesting, but combat was too boring. I never switched stances to fight groups/single enemies, it was faster to just kill them with whatever weapon/style I was using.
Kotor 2 was broken, incomplete and what there was of it was just plain dull. I love the first game.

Gothic 2's controls and combat where legendarily bad. Despite loving Morrowind and this being the same sort of thing, it gets the basic fundamentals utterly wrong. The guy who created Pong spent most of the time making the paddle 'feel right'. In Gothic 2 it doesn't seem like such things got so much as a passing thought.

Oblivion I just found very bland.

Earth 2160, I loved the prequel and liked a lot of things they were doing with this game. But they just didn't seem to want to allow me enough units to do a proper job.
Arcanum:I loved the setting,the characters and the combat system,but I don't know why I can't finish it
*flame shield ready*System Shock:I loved SS2,but the gameplay on this one it's way too complicated.
ArmA:Cold War Assault:it's way too boring to me
Divine Divinity:same as CWA.
almost forgot...
Diablo 2:what a bland game just click,kill,loot.with an bland story,characters,pallet swap enemies than giving them new names and upping the difficulty.

Most RPGs from before Baldur's Gate, specifically the Might and Magic games. Just too cumbersome and boring.

Borderlands... bland story and gameplay, I'm not a loot dude.

Diablo and Titan Quest and Torchlight... bland bland bland, click for loot which doesn't interest me.

Some early FPS games that were more about being mazes than having fun. Wolfenstein 3D sadly falls into this camp for me.

A lot of console JRPGs I tried because I liked Final Fantasy but couldn't enjoy. Phantasy Star, Lunar and Shining Force spring to mind at the moment.

Every fighting game and racing game ever, other than Burnout and a little bit of MK when I was a kid.

Every MMO ever... again, loot and leveling is boring to me and not why I play games.

And yeah, KotOR... it's a pretty boring RPG to be honest if you don't love Star Wars, which I don't.

Well that is the point. I have never finished Morrowind and yet I have played it several years. The main storyline quite simply doesnt interest me. The rest does.

heh, well, you clearly missed where this game shines :D Hint: it is not combat, nor is it character progression.

Is it story? Because thats one of the things I always hear mentioned and to be honest it was not really showcased in the demo, in fact I'm not really sure what the story was supposed to be about. The demo had some training in a castle courtyard, followed by an attack on the castle and suddenly I was in some town that was being attacked by weird looking wolves of somesort with no real explanation of how I got there or why. If there is a great story in all that I never saw it, it was just unsatisfying hack n' slash.

I've debated getting the full game hoping that if the story is really that good then it'll help carry me through it, but that didn't work for me with Baldurs Gate so I'm not sure.
Nexuiz Beta. The matchmaking is broken as hell.
