It's a hard game to play if you're playing a story about the lives of your characters. What got me over the hump was a change in view - it's not a story about a party of heroes that save the world, it's a story about the price paid before people can become heroes (and at least try to save the world before having a heart attack because a tiny pig man squealed too loud).
As soon as I started thinking of it as a horror game rather than an rpg, things just clicked more.
