Action games that reveal the story by leaving a million binders/emails/recordings for you to pick up and read later.

Having a lever-pull in the first 5 minutes then no levers for 40 hours until you need to pull one in an obscure corner of the dungeon to open the final boss door (vagrant story.)

i love yakuza 0 but having to go through multiple loading screens to check off each individual item on a restaurant menu is bonkers.

it depends on the restuarant. for some of them, after each order, they put you outside of the restaurant and you have to walk back in, talk to the host, sit at a table, and then order again.

Its ok as long as they frame it as a joke. More talking about gritty aaa games that try and be super serious but the spy with decades of experience needs help with both the conceptualization and execution of getting into a car.

It’s cool when you walk too fast on an escort mission and the NPC decides to stop and pout like a loving toddler instead of trying to catch up with you

all my examples are yakuza 0 lately of course, but i like at the beginning when bacchus explains leveling up the fighting styles by just saying that you invest in yourself and when kiryu is like "you mean, like spend money for a good gym, buy expensive healthy food?" and he's like "no, you literally invest in yourself. you put money into you." and that's as much as it's explained.

He can't kill me. I'm indestructible. Everybody knows that

Doesn't happen so much anymore but vague directions from an npc with no map marker. Morrowind is full of it, 'turn right at the lake to the east then cross two bridges, go west and it's at the top of the hill'.
