It's incredible how you can love/hate some games while playing them, but then after 4-6 months you end up loving them almost as if an emotional link has been established with the characters.

This happened to me with shenmue.
I guess this can be a thread about these kind of games

Earhtbound.

I felt a sort of obligation to play it because of how acclaimed it had become a few years back, and it was a fucking chore. Forced myself to finish it for some reason. Didn't really enjoy it and probably wont play it again.

But when I think back on the game, and the characters, and moments, and all the little things about it, I can't help but feel a great deal of affection and even admiration for the game.

Every year around the time E3 is about to occur I fall for the rumors over Shenmue 3 being a thing and every time I watch all of E3 getting my hopes raised and crushed at every trailer that pops up. When will I learn to stop doing this? It's been 13 years, I just wanna give up hope already so I can be at peace.

Last year was the year I finally gave up. All the effort was put into that year, everyone pushed really hard for S3 to happen. I told myself that if nothing was revealed last year, then that was the end. And so the E3 ended and not even a peep.
I'm still hoping for this year

You know, I don't think I've ever had that happen. There are some games that I gave up on and then decided to revisit at a later time, but I always ended up just remembering why I'd stopped playing.

Other than that they all just end up as games I loved or games I didn't care enough about to finish.
