The Witcher series. Around 15 years ago I've picked up Sapkowski's books. I made through one and a half. Can't stand his writing.
Horizon series - I watched my partner play through it and I can't think of a more bland, unimaginative world.
Both the Witcher games and the TV show are far, far better than the books. It's honestly impressive to me that they managed to salvage something (to me) so fun and interesting out of that trashfire.
That said, I can understand people not vibing with the Witcher games'/show's particular mix of somehow both serious and ridiculous, or being put off by the sexism or the grimdark or whatnot.
