Although I don't feel like it worked well as a theme for a livestream, I've discovered I definitely have some things in the geek entertainment world that I can both love and hate with seemingly equal passion.
The Shadow Hearts games have my favorite turn-based RPG combat of all time and many other things I really enjoy. But the voice acting and writing irritates me more with each entry in the series.
I'm REALLY enjoying the Assassin's Creed games right now as a newcomer. Traversing the open world via parkour, leaping from buildings and taking enemies by surprise is so satisfying. But the main story missions so often rely on time limits, stealth or other "insta-fail" triggers that force a restart. It makes those parts extremely frustrating, or just boring as I feel forced to play/pause along with a youtube walkthrough in order to avoid tons of repetition.
It's so weird to be so attracted to these things that are also so repulsive to me at times. I'm curious if anyone else has something similar in their entertainment life?
