Which video game did you bounce off of at first, but then tried again later for it to become one of your favorites of all time? (lemmy.world)

Oddly enough, Witcher 3. It took a mate of mine to convince me to give it another go, now I love it.

    I still can't get that game to click with me. I love an RPG but I just can't get into it. I even love the characters etc and Netflix show (the first season anyway). Don't know why, and at this point I can't bear the thought of starting over again.

    It didn't click with me with either, I tried it for a few hours then put it down and forgot about it. A couple of Christmases ago I went back into it with a mindset of "just focus on the story missions rather than exploring every nook and cranny" and I got far enough that it really started to click and I was hooked.

    The story is incredible, pretty much the whole way through. The progression and combat is delightful. The world is beautiful so you end up exploring it whilst naturally following your quest markers. To top it all the expansions are amazing and have really incredible moments.
