Elder Scrolls games but specifically Skyrim.
I have tried it multiple times but I just don't understand how so many people can put so many hours into a game when an element you are going to be engaging in for a lot of your play through is one of the worst in the genre, the combat. It is floaty, imprecise and has zero feeling of impact. It is just horrible. I felt the same about Oblivion but Skyrim seems to be held in even higher regard.
Skyrim does have a lot of combat overhaul mods to make it feel like you want it to. Of course ideally you shouldn't have to, but the option is there at least.
