Just shows how subjective these things are. I couldn't get into Skyrim or Destiny at all, yet The Last Of Us is for me a total masterpiece, a superb balance between a cinematic atmospheric story and a game.... which I think may be the crux of it.
If you have the time to sink into a discipline where skill and ability is core to gaining enjoyment then something like TLOU or possibly (I havn't played it yet, but tempted to get The Order 1886 the more I read about it) TO1886 would not be right, but if you only have a few hours in an evening an want to become engrossed in something spectacular without needing to master a control scheme then they could be ideal.
There is no right answer, it's clearly a matter of what you specifically want from a 'game.'
Is 'Game' a too limited description for these things now?
