Thw Witcher.

All I heard were people singing the praises of that game, so I go to play it and...

WHAT.
THE.
FUCK.

The animation looks like ass, the main character looks like he's pants-on-head retarded while wielding a sword, the first legitimate boss you fight REQUIRES you to either level up in a specific way up to that point or cheat, and to top it all off the devs decided that instead of explaining what the fuck was supposed to be happening in the story, they'll just dump you in the middle of it at the start without explaining anything or anyone.

Psychonauts. It is a platformer with great visual style and very good writing but once I put it down, I couldn't bring myself to start up the game again.
Your not alone on this one

OT: for the last 5 years any rpg type game i play. i have a problem completing rpgs mostly due to the levle grind which is weird due to me being able to power though FF5 back in the day.

HalfLife, either one. A revolutionary FPS that is praised by critics and amateurs alike for it's engaging story, fun weapons and overall....zzzzzzzzzzzzz. I'm sorry, can I shoot something yet? I was gifted HL2 after explaining this to a friend, I got to the boat/atv/thing scene, said WTactualF and turned it back off. All while the guy who gifted it sat there confused.

Dead Island. Open world zombie killing paradise? yes please! Scaled enemies that absorb more damage to the than most of the scenery, weapons with no durability and levels that are so far spread out just so the lovely island paradise can be shown off? No thanks. At least racing trucks was pretty fun in the first part of the game.

MOBA games. Competitive, team/objective based games that reward reflex and precision? Awesome. Communities that are unhelpful, and often downright anti-social, a massive learning curve to just get a pickup game (which I honestly found brought on by the community more than the game).

EDIT: Forgot Borderlands. This one is easy, I do not want WoW: The FPS. If something is shot it should die, not do a dance for it's own entertainment

Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness.

I'm not sure if this one counts because I really enjoy the game. Admittedly, yes, it can get a bit too grindy at times but it has some really great characters, a fantastic soundtrack and some fun strategic gameplay. There's just three letters that kill it for me: P S P
Useless fucking handheld with a pathetic battery life and frequently navigating through the menus in this game makes it physically painful to play given the awkward way you have to hold the system!
