So i think often when we discuss games we didnt like we speak about them subjectively in a way that sounds objective. For instance people might say "what an awful game" in a thread for a game that reviewed well and built up a large following. I see this a lot for games like Destiny, bioshock infinite, fallout 4, GTA IV, FFXV, Pokemon sw/sh, and MGS V (sorry for all the abreviations). I think its more interesting to take the hyperbole out, and start being able to admit that a game is good from an objective stand point, even if you didnt enjoy it.
for me I didnt enjoy any of the mainline boarderland games, or the last of us. But i can totally understand why people love them. I also cancelled my death stranding pre order once the reviews came out because it didnt seem like a game i would be interested in. But that being said i can totally admit that objectively those are great games, even if I have issues with some of the gameplay. Another example would be Classic style resident evil. I totally get why they are hailed as classics, but to me they feel to clunky. But again i understand that my view on that is not the common consensus on those games, and that despite my issues with the tank controls, they have other objectively great qualities.
