For most of its over 20 year lifecycle, Monster Hunter was extremely niche and considered inaccessible and bad by the wider gaming populace. Complaints about the series are ongoing, even with the newest entry (PC gamers especially consider apocalyptic due to actual performance issues that need to be addressed). It’s always something, and especially with either very new players or very old vets, who either expect dark souls or yearn for the old days of attacking with the joystick.
I think it fits the description, as I’m sure the games being called “bad” by op certainly have a charm that drew someone’s deep attention. I know MH isn’t for everyone, but I’ll love it until the day I die, which, considering todays climate about mental health, probably won’t be that far off.
