I only ever got into watching (primarily) Dota 2, then WarCraft 3, StarCraft, and StarCraft 2, with a bit of Counter-Strike thrown in if I was doing something with my hands or eating a big meal.

Then Twitch became complete **** so I only watch the Dota 2 International every year on YouTube. And even that I only watch reruns because they use Europe or China times. At least I can skip all the down time and commentary between games.

I really hate Skyrim. It's not the worst game ever but I hate it so much because it is a big budget game, highly praised, huge seller, and comes from a company that could do so much better. But they are determined to streamline and retardify it down to the smallest possible form. There is a list of stuff that Morrowind had which got aggressively stripped out for Oblivion. But then Skyrim stripped out even more. So it's barely even an RPG anymore. I really hate it.

SimCity (2013), the final nail in the coffin for Maxis, a company that made my childhood.

The Last of Us, attracting foids to the hobby and cementing the movie game as the default for AAA.

Diablo III, even though I played it for many hours and had fun, distilled the fun and simplicity of loot lust from Diablo II into a cynical and homogenized process. The itemization was boring, too.
It is tragic to see how the 90s classic developers got molested (mostly by EA) and run into the ground. The destruction of the Command & Conquer series really bothers me too, but there is a whole list of these devs and game serieses that got stamped out.
