This question popped into my head when I was playing Void Stranger. I just got done with the game and will probably never play it again despite not finishing it. The game is genuinely amazing but it just gets so demanding as you progress through it. I ended up watching the second half of the game on YouTube.

What is your favorite game that you feel is really cool and special but you never felt the pull of actually finishing it, and why?

Final Fantasy VII. I was never able to beat the sephiroth boss fight. I enjoyed the story, but I don't feel the need to play it again.

I had that game to the point where I could fight seph but decided I wanted to go for the other stuff first and at some point just stopped playing. It was on an emulator, at least (legit copy of the game but I didn't have the first PlayStation to play it on), so I might still have the save somewhere in my backups, but I'm not sure if I'll ever circle back to it. Especially since my computer doesn't even have a CD drive, so I'd need to get one just to read the discs (though I'd probably just go find isos instead, which I think I might have even ripped myself to avoid disc swapping back in the day).
