Let's hear about some games you maybe were told were not worth your time, or had bad reviews but you managed to love regardless.

I'll go first. I'm not embarrased to admit that I played the shit out of Elder Scrolls Blades (the easily forgettable Skyrim-esque mobile game). I had to wait for it to release on Switch which had the benifit of the shitty timers being gone by then.

Once I started to think of it as a kind of advanced 'Swords and Sandles' type game I was hooked.

I really loved Singularity, but it was pretty much a flop.

Omg yes!

Looking at metacritic it's rated better than I remember. But it was super under the radar at the time, and I don't meet a lot of people that are familiar with it. It was a great story shooter.

I wish it would get a sequel, but no :(

I played through that once back in the day. I remember really enjoying it too; I guess that'll be going on my replay list. Thanks!
