I can agree to alot of things in here. Big ones for me being:
Quick Time Events. Teletale aside, this system gracing a game out of the blue its like… Okaaaaaaay WTF is this doing in here. One game for example: Space Marine.
Alright time to kick a giant Daemon Princes ass with… wait… WAIT. NO. ANYTHING BUT QUICK TIME! THIS ■■■■ JUST GOT RUINED! WHAT THE ■■■■ SERIOUSLY. The whole game was brutal bloody action and satisfaction and it ends with a ■■■■■■■ quick time event!
Escort/Protect is always irritating because of the retarded AI of your escort. Hey buddy I’m trying to protect you! WHY ARE YOU WALKING OVER THERE INTO THE LINE OF FIRE OF ALL THE THINGS. NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!1111111ONE
Timed mission making one all anxious because omfg time limit. Some aren’t bad at all, but when you get one that has to be PIXEL PERFECT, then the blood boils!
Bad FOV will give me eye strain/headaches very easily.
UNNECESSARY HAND HOLDING! Dear lord… Has humanity lost a few brain-cells for this to be a thing now! When I encounter this, I feel insulted!
The “I just have to hide behind some wall or something and regenerate my health” bullcrap. It totally trivializes game difficulty. It is also hand holding. Don’t worry you can never die!
Online only… the sad sad future
No matter what steps a company makes to protect their work, its just an other challenge to those who want to flex their hacking/programming skills.
And a big ruiner when it comes to online PvP, especially team work games is THE SORE LOOSER.
Here we have some kid, or even and adult, that literally has a childish tantrum in the first few minutes of the game if its not going their way. Or some random point late game making it even worse. It’s like watching a kid in the middle of my workplace sit down and scream their head off because mommy wont buy them what they want.
These types never work for a win, they just want it off a silver platter. If they think they are loosing they will just want to throw it.
They also think they are the greatest ■■■■ since sliced bread and will shove that e-peen in your face any chance they get.
If you play MOBA’s, competitive shooters (overwatch, counter strike) there is an extremely high change of running into a big baby busting a blood vessel over something trivial, thus ruining your entire round, aka thank you for wasting my time.
There is times when everyone knows the game is lost, and if its agreed to, then yes, lets end it now. But if its just one of those babies throwing the towel in on something that is completely salvageable its just… really dude…
