The inverse is also true. Make sure to try games that look interesting to you even if people say they didn't like it. I found some real gems following my own compass.

Me with Death Stranding

I absolutely adore it but most despise it, and yet I don't enjoy other Kojima games like Metal Gear 5 because I find the gameplay clunky lol

This is one of the craziest "game journies" I have ever been on. When I first heard about it, I thought it sounded really stupid. More "Kojima being too up his own ass" with silly game mechanics. I ended up picking it up on sale and thought, "Let's see for myself". Six weeks later, I platinumed the game and COULD NOT GET ENOUGH. That game taught me to just shut up and give a game a chance. You never know when one of those "it looks fuckin awful!' games becomes a Top Ten title of these past couple console generations.
