Lately it seems that Horizon: Zero Dawn fits in this category. I love Aloy and I love the world that it takes place it, but there's just too much combat. I really don't like the way it handles, so even having notched it down to Easy to speed it all up, I still just loathe encounters in that game.

Another big one is The Witcher 3. It's a gorgeous game, with great characters in a great world. There's just too damn much of it and I have a really tough time just skipping a bunch of it so I can move forward with it. Again, the combat isn't my favorite, which really hurts the chances that I'll come back to it.

Kingdom Hearts 2 - My wife and I are both huge Disney fans, we saw Mulan together in the theater when it came out. We played through KH1 last month and are almost finished with 2. I don't think we'll play any of the other stuff before 3, Disney is kinda the draw (FF as well for me). I never liked any of the original KH universe after the first game (Hollow Bastion is great).

Nier: Automata - I really need to find some time to devote to it before next month. I like what I've played but so much else got in the way, from Zelda to Mass Effect to now KH1/2.

Nex Machina - I just really like the way Housemarque games play!

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy - I love the series, and Chloe is my favorite character. I was super bummed when she didn't even have a cameo in Uncharted 4, and was even more bummed when it was highly rumored that the DLC was going to be Sam/Sully focused. Imagine my giddiness when it was announced that Chloe was the star, and doubly so when it was announced that this is more in line with a full-fledged entry in the series as opposed to a little side DLC.

The game looks beautiful obviously, but I'm really sad knowing that this is what Mass Effect died for. It looks kinda bland. I really want to hope that it's full of BioWare character/story, but I seriously doubt it. Looking forward to seeing more but...man :(

@bard91 Nope, I don't really game on the go. I live in the suburbs and work is less than 15 minutes away, I don't know when I would possibly have enough time to play something. It's been an issue since as far back as the DS. I have 5-10 minutes here and there, which just isn't enough time to really sink into anything. I've never finished a 3DS game, even though I bought stuff like Super Mario 3D Land and A Link Between Worlds. My Switch will basically be in the dock 99% of the time I play it I think.

@Tragosaurus Yup, I basically bought it just because I know what kind of consumer I am. I don't want or need it right now, but I'll want to play Mario, Yoshi, and maybe a couple other games at some point.

@Akkad-no-Musou Same boat, I played through Zelda on Wii U and have too much else to play before a replay is ever in the question. I've never been the biggest fan of Mario Kart so the week or so I played it three years ago got me my fill. I guess I'll get Splatoon 2 just to have something to play on it, but that's not really my jam either - not in a universe with Titanfall 2 and Overwatch. And It's cool that it looks like Platinum is bringing Bayonetta 1 & 2 over but again, these are old games that I played years ago. I even imported Puyo Puyo Tetris for PS4 early last year so even arguably the coolest Switch game is old news to me at this point =(

If only that Yoshi game was a launch title

@Akkad-no-Musou It's the first time they've been available, I'll want one for Mario, and I can burn the cash. I just wish there was something I wanted to play right now because it's such a neat thing.

A Switch! I connected it to the wifi, turned it off, and it's been sitting there for three days now. There are literally zero games I want for it :(
