been playing tomb raider underworld for the first time in a decade and getting mad all over again about the reboot throwing out all the tomb raiding so it could be far cry instead. my pet peeve for this post is the aaa industry's pathological obsession with crafting over the past decade.

when you die a bunch of times in a row and the game over screen says "Looks like you're having trouble! Would you like to lower the difficulty?"

DQXI has it. Maybe I just didn’t sail far enough, but the ocean gets very foggy and you don’t go anywhere

I’ll try to be more patient next time. I saw the fog and immediately thought it wasn’t going to let me through

Lunchmeat Larry posted:possibly one of the most depressing things I've ever seen in a game was Assassin's Creed letting you get "mastery levels", spending skill points after you had maxed out your normal moves, and it was all stuff like this i hate tiny level ups in general. cyberpunk was really bad about it. theres no way i'm noticing a 1% increase in rate of fire or whatever. it seems like such an obvious bad game design but cdpr is fail oh and level scaling in rpgs like skyrim.

in general, i hate it when games give you something that would have been cool the whole time you were playing the game but is useless by the time they give it to you.

Both love and hate the "carry this random item through the game for a secret" thing. It's cool when it happens, but I end up hoarding stuff in every game because of it.

games where youre strongly encouraged to hoard everything due to a big crafting/trade system, but there's a strict inventory limit and all that crap takes up space

Games with skill trees where you're able to earn enough points through the course of regular gameplay to purchase every possible skill.

I know this isn't exactly what you mean but I just remembered carefully approaching my build in my last new Vegas run to see if I could get 100 in every skill and then got really pissed off when I succeeded

Bicyclops posted:I did it in Oblivion, God help me That's at least "meant" to bd achievable normally because you can just grind up every skill, tho. NV uses the Fallout "X skill points to allocate per level" with a level cap though so I felt more like I was proving something to (myself?) about how stupid and busted the game systems were

When an enemy has big old glowing weak points that do huge damage when you break em but not enough to actually kill it so you're left chipping away for ages doing poo poo damage once they're gone. Yes I'm playing horizon zero dawn

Perk trees that are just do 10% more fire damage (3 ranks), 25% spell cost reduction. Even worse, when you have to unlock those perks to get to something like "jump on water". Basically the way Bethesda does perks sucks! FNV had it right. Each perk gives you a new ability or playstyle. That's how it should be.
