What popular games have you tried hard to get into to no avail?

What popular or widely praised video game/franchise has been unable to capture your interest despite your best efforts?

I realize there was a similar post recently, but that was more centered around learning curves and difficulty. I'm more interested in hearing from people why they didn't like certain games that the majority did.

I'll kick things off. For me, it's Pokemon. Hands down. Growing up, I was a fan of the TV series and even the TCG to an extent. However, I just could not get into the video games no matter how hard I tried. I place a lot of the blame on me having major ADHD. The repetitive nature of the random encounters and turn based combat frustrated me more than it did entertain me. It bums me out because I really love the world of Pokemon. Hence why I enjoy the TV series. Imagine my disappointment when 95% of the games use the exact same formula... I think I can say the only one that I played all the way through was Detective Pikachu if you can even count that.

What about you guys?? Sound off in the comments!
