Have you ever tried a new game, found it boring as hell and then come back to it and suddenly found it extremely enjoyable?
I seem to feel that way every time I try a new RPG.

The first time I tried Star Ocean: The Second Story I made it to the part when Rena wants to find her real mother, and then I was bored and quit, only to come back and get obsessed with it.
Same went for Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana and Breath of Fire: I was totally bored but later enjoyed them with a great passion.
