Baldur's Gate for me. I'm trying to play it (the Enhanced Edition, to be more specific), but it's taking me huge amounts of patience and devotion to slug my way through it. Everything feels so... dated.
Came to this thread to post this. I SO wanted to get into this game, and even got into a groove with it for an hour or two, but after that I just can't muster up the will to play it, and it has been so long that I would have to restart again because I forgot everything.
You guys are playing Baldur's Gate wrong. I played them very recently and I found them to be a refreshing experience. Sure things like the pathfinding may be dated but the rest of the game isn't. The tactical principles behind the combat are not dated. The writing and dialogue isn't dated. Well, the dialogue and choices are dated compared to today's because now they are so dumbed down. The pre-rendered graphics still look good. The plethora of exploration and content isn't dated. Really the only flaw is the pathfinding and the game being designed for 640x480 monitors.
