Nearly all of the first party console franchises. Other than Metroid I can't think of any I care about or look forward to.

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
Call of Duty. I loved the campaings of the first one, it's expansion, and the sequel, but modern ones kinda suck imo.

Halo, COD, BF, Fifa, and stuffs like that.

Basically most FPS shooters, games based on IP or movies... cause they all trash beside Batman Arkham and insomniac Spiderman games, sport games, i also don't give a fuck about all Cars games except Gran Turismo. Same for All Nintendo games beside canon Zelda games.
 
All Nintendo franchises, God of war, Gears, Gran Turismo (Forza just better and takes up that space for me), FIFA, Mortal Kombat, resident evil, and Final Fantasy. There are probably more.

Almost all of them, with the exception of Sonic, Halo and Final Fantasy. Souls games as well.

These are series where I buy most of the games, and that are popular. Also bought the three Hitman games, so I guess I care now. Otherwise, I tend to buy pretty niche games.

Too many to list tbh....I've no interest in Nintendo so that's a whole lot right there with Mario,Zelda etc....Fifa and all sports games,Halo,Gears.MGS,like I said I could go on.
I was going to put Final Fantasy too but I've been thinking about trying FFVII Remake(never played one before)....just not sure if I'll enjoy it.
I'm not some contrarian though there are plenty of big popular franchises I enjoy like Assassin's Creed,Uncharted,Far Cry etc.

Any Japanese RPG anime. Only ones I played were Zeldas on NES and Phantasy Star 2 and 4 during Genesis. Looking back, they are pretty cringey though the visuals were slick for console games.

Dabbled with some 360 demos like FF13. So anytime there's mention of FF, DQ, MH, Ni No Kuri, even Pokemon since it seems RPG-ish, that's a no go.

Once you play Ultima Underworld 1 and 2 on PC around 1992(?) there's no going back to JRPGs.

I like most games but overall I would say it's just Assasins Creed I don't care much for, some Call of Duty, and EA Sports.

Basically anything that is on a yearly release schedule is almost for me guaranteed mediocrity.

I guess every Sony exclusive, since I went through last gen without a PS4 and don’t regret it.

Anything online doesn’t interest me one bit, even if those are the most played games in the world.

To mention a few: Assassin’s Creed, Halo, Uncharted, TLOU, God of War, Call of Duty, GTA, Red Dead, The Witcher, realistic racing games, Tales, most FPS, Fallout.

More than I care to name honestly. The one franchise that sticks out to me the most though is Assassin's Creed. In theory a series I should love but find incredibly dull.
