Anime games. Their eyes are too big and their hair looks funny.
Final Fantasy 7
I simply cannot get emotionally attached to coloured rectangles attached to other rectanges. I get the nostalgia element for alot of people but it's a game I have never been able to get into and I love every other Final Fantasy before 12
If they remake it with relatable graphics........ I will eat words
Most Japanese games with an cute anime art style - just doesn't do anything for me.
Also games with ridiculous button combo's to remember for fighting mechanics - no thank you.
Surprised by all the Dark Souls comments. I didn't realise how polarising it was for most people. For me it's the most realistic depiction of medieval combat that I know of hence why (for me at least) one of the best games out there. Combined with the oppressive atmosphere just makes me want to push through to find the enemy to best!
...Basically none?
There are plenty of games that don't click with me, but I'm almost always able to accept some answer to the question of "Why does anyone like this?" Very, very rarely do I conclude that a game is actually unlikeable and that all the people who seem to enjoy it are delusional or pulling one over on me.
I can't think of a single game that I can't at least see why other people may like it. Even with the games I hate most I can still understand why others may enjoy them. I think most answers here or more "I don't like it, how can they like it?" or the opinion was made without even fully understanding the game.
This seems to just be people listing genres they don't like, without taking a step back and thinking why other people might like them. Look, I don't find FPS that exciting but I could see why someone would. Ditto for sports games, or western "AAA". The only genre I don't really understand the appeal of are MOBAs, since I don't know much about them and everything I've heard sounds extremely unappealing (such as the player population).
You people really don't see why some people might prefer a more cute, anime influenced art style in a game? Especially in a day and age where everything tries to out-grimdark the last big game to come out?
Or why some people might prefer a really challenging, obtuse game like Dark Souls in a day and age when games love to lead you by gigantic arrows everywhere and pop up tutorials every few seconds?
Or why others might enjoy turn-based gaming where they can relax and contemplate their move set and not have to worry about reflexes?
Well, here's three people who actually read/understood the topic, at least. I'd look for more, but it's starting to get painful to sift through this mass grave of failed reading comprehension.

none of this makes sense.
You liked every FF before 12 except for 7 because of those reasons?
and if you are waiting for a HD remake so that you can like a game then you are doing it wrong.
I just couldn't get into the game. I think it's because of the graphics. Alot of peope I know are advocates for that game and tell me how good the story is but I just can't get into it. I think if the characters were a little more relatable (visibly) then i'd probably be able to stick with it.
I know it can't be a 'bad' game, because of the love it gets, but I just can't see the appeal of it as it stands now
MOBAs
Gee, do you go camping or hiking outdoors much and not have music playing?
Its definitely not the same, nor is it the same kind of difficulty as those games you cited but really, would it be a realisitic world, not just a gamified world, if you couldn't make those kind of mistakes?
League of Legends
I tried it and didn't care for it, but it literally has absorbed my friends lives and I don't understand why.
The Souls series
I played Demon souls and watched a friend play Dark souls, and it just felt/looked like a clunky frustrating mess. Imma give dark souls another chance next month though when its free on XBL.
