First one that comes to my mind is having to travel with an NPC and our walk/run speeds don’t match.
2·1 year ago- escort missions
- press x to not die
- unskippable cutscenes
- long-ass mandatory tutorial missions (I can and do RTFM, fuck you very much)
- no subtitles for spoken dialogue
- shitty writing
- shitty voice acting
- non-union voice acting
- skinny dudes with huge fucking swords
- mandatory gacha/pay to win
- padding what could be a short, fun, memorable game with a lot of bullshit
- trophies/achievements
- a plot-relevant sidekick with an overly perky VA (gives Paimon from Gacha Impact the thermonuclear side-eye)
- characters who look prepubescent in outfits a grown-ass adult would think twice about wearing
- long, convoluted processes to find “ultimate weapons” that aren’t worth the effort
