Example; the Legend of Zelda: BotW and TotK weapon degradation system. At first I was annoyed at it, but once I stopped caring about my “favorite weapon” I really started to enjoy the system. I think it lends really well to the sandbox nature of the game and it itches that resourcefulness nature inside me.

I remember as a kid I was really into fantasy things and my dad told me about LOTR and thought I'd like it. I'd read the hobbit for school already and really enjoyed that... But LOTR was painful, I didn't even complete the first book

I would probably say that FOTR is my least favourite of the LOTR trilogy, TTT and ROTK are both more enjoyable IMO.

That said, I saw the movies before I read the books, so that might be a factor, I'm not sure.

Personally, my favorite book of his is the Silmarillion, he's in his element and is writing a text book about cool fantasy stuff he dreamt up.
