Things that piss you off about games

[Alex Damjan]

So as the title implies this thread it too air out anything shitty about games that you like / don't like, be that mechanics to UI anything really.

My big one is Update Requires Restart in cod you see that and you just want to smash your head in a door, another could be something like paying for skins in overwatch or League. things like that

I hate how some games have longer cutscenes than the actual gameplay

launchers (rockstar launcher, paradox launcher, etc)

THIS. As a steam deck owner this is an instant turn off. If I have to fuck around with a launcher, its a no

Releasing a game in unplayable state

Releasing a game at full price while it's not even half-finished because "Early-Access,"

PERPHEADs demo restarts happening mid raid

Streamers taking over a popular game and forcing devs to remove / add things, or else. (The Finals as an example)

 

[unscsnip3r]

The worst is when old games retain their release price.

Go look at the price of old CODs & FIFAs and they are still £40.

For what?

Gonna point out a great joke-

Fifa 2019-final release, the switch version was the same solely with updated teamlists.

IGN took note of this, and literally every review of the switch version is equally copy pasted with the note explaining this.

People calling a game "dead" when its not. Dear lord just let people enjoy what they want!

 

[The HitMan]

Games that force you to be online 247 even if it's single player, new test drive game which is online only.

 

[Speedy]

People pretending to be something they dont

Weird encrypted file extensions that make it impossible to port/rip
that game's models/maps into other games/Blender/3dsmax.

"Disconnected: player has a PBO which is not part of the server"
*deletes the mod*
"Disconnected: player is missing a PBO"

oh also my teammates in War Thunder. ill literally be getting shot and my teammate right next to me is just looking the other way and shooting at a jet in his abrams instead of helping me

and execs firing the whole dev team after releasing their game in early access so now its just a dead project. looking at you, KSP2

Cheeky little diversion tactic from you here bro

 

[SomeUser]

I hate how some games have longer cutscenes than the actual gameplay

COD MW3 2023 *Cough*

 

[Jesus 2012/joshua maryl]

games that are free/under a fiver that then require you to buy the next episodes for £20+. (TWD and Life Is Strange.)

i agree kinda annoying
but i have to say lis2 was worth it

The fact that not a single company releases a full game nowadays

Its like Netflix tv shows that start great then suddenly never get another season for fuck knows reason

I hate how some games have longer cutscenes than the actual gameplay

JRPGs from the 2000s era was the absolute worst for this. I remember buying Robot warlords on PS2 and finding out it had unskippable cutscenes that were just static PNGs and text boxes. Worst part was it was a tactical turn based RPG, so the whole first mission completion took me like 2 whole hours as a kid.

From memory this video doesn’t even start on the full fucking cutscene and even the cropped down cutscene is a huge drag.

Every cod game release has UI that looks like a Hulu plus subscription, that’s what is even more funny to your comparison.

 

[Bnjemann]

Barely any good single player games / campaigns anymore

Reject modernity, return to sleeping dogs and far cry 2 to 4

 

[Kali]

This aged like a fine wine

i hate people using cheats/crosshair

 

[Exana]

Does anyone remember Tera online? I miss when games have that sort of movement when your character can move diagonally in the literal meaning

 

[Lushi]

If there is a shop inside the game like in Assasins Creed(Specific Origins and Oddysey part) where you can buy itmes that will really affect your game process like will give a damage buff,more health,armor and also a lot of times the free armors in game look like shit,but in the shop there are a lot of cool cosmetics,which means that devs can do cool cosmetics but only for real money.
Upd : Also skins,idk why but nowadays other players dont care about ur skills but about how u look in the game,even if u have a golden skin or the most expensive one,but no skill players will still respect u more than others.
