When my computer shut down right when I'm doing well.


Example:
Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad.
Spoiler: show
We were fighting in the Square of Fallen Fighters. There was a tank, Russian T34.
I happened to be an engineer. So I moved towards the tank. They spotted me and tried to shoot me.
I dive down and a tank shell flies right over my head. They start shooting me with machine gun.
I move forward on cover. Then a friendly rifleman dives next to me. I try to say him to distract the tank but he doesn't understand.
I run forward and dive. The tank almost hits me. I wait until it's turns. It was my moment.
I took my AT grenade and run toward the houses. I moved closer and closer. I was next to the tank.
I threw my grenade... And missed the tank.
Luckily I had one more. I threw it... And my computer shut down.

That's easy. When the electricity goes away and you haven't saved the game in three hours, making you want to burn down your house with lemonade gasoline.

WHY YOU STUPID ELECTRICITY?! WHY?!

:l

Also... When you can't jump in games like Dark Souls.

And when you're getting to a very good part and you get a can't read disc error! >:/

*Absolute agreement*
The only way out of that is by having a mushroom at hand. But you still need to worry about normal red shells or random green shells that attack you from behind...

Third'd right here... Its ridiculous in MK7, easily 2 or 3 almost every race, when I thought it was supposed to be a "special" item. Even when losing in all the other game's I'd never get one, and now its like "Oh, someone is in last, take this immediately" :l. Ranting aside I still love the game.

When I played for the first time it annoyed me a bit, I wanted to have a look around, and she kept asking me to listen when I was trying to do other stuff. :P

I imagine if I played through now, already knowing where most things are, I probably wouldn't notice.

Games where you run around and stuff, but they don't let you jump when you want to.

Impossible parts, like when those stupid blockheads in Okami start getting harder.
Spoiler: Explanation • show
   In Okami, you sometimes run into these living stone walls called blockheads. The majority of them in the game block the way you need to go to progress in the story.
   To get past one, you have to headbutt him, and it'll show you a series of white dots on his body. You then have to paint dots on him exactly where you saw the dots, in order to crack and destroy him.
    The problem is, the placement of the dots is random every time, and they only appear momentarily,  not giving you time to write down where they were. Also, where you paint a dot has to be exactly where the dot was.

They could've at least programmed it to where you'd still get it if your dots were close enough. I ended up cheating to get past the one on Oni Island, using a method someone posted on the internet.
    You run into the blockhead on a walkway, high up on the fortress, so the programmers put an invisible wall on the side of the walkway so you wouldn't accidentally fall off if you went over the rail. Jump, headbutt the invisible wall, and if you do it right, you'll backflip over the blockhead. You're welcome.

They were easy for me until Oni Island. :c That guy frustrated me so much.

In fact, I hate Oni Island, mostly because of that blockhead and the stupid obstacle races with Tobi the Cheating Paper. Everything else in that fortress was easy, except those two things. The fight with ninetails was even fun.

Post by: Chishio Kunrin on 2012 Oct 11, 16:26:05
Having to participate in multiple obstacle races against an NPC that can float over the obstacles. The only advantage you get is spamming an ability that slows time for 4 seconds, and it's not that much of an advantage unless you get a running start and do not mess up or hit any obstacles. And it's in your best interest to renew the slow-time every 3 seconds.

Ok, so... I'm playing Persona 3: FES edition... and I'm on the final boss, Nyx Avatar.
It was pretty rough battle, and I was almost ready to finish him off and end the game. This was long and excruciating, and I was running out of supplies. However, the boss only needed like one or two attacks and then he would die.
Time to be happy, right?

Wrong.

I made one error (I forgot to guard), and my team suffered for it as they suffered a massive attack that drained most of their life.

However, I had a character who had Diarhan, which essentially ALWAYS heals a person up to their max hp.
So, being the awesome AI he is, he decides to cast it.

However, before it is his turn, the boss does this move which CHARMS the healer, which means whatever action he was going to do was going to be in favor of the boss.

So what does the heal do? HE HEALS THE FINAL BOSS ALL THE WAY UP TO MAX WITH DIARHAN.

lol Ouch.

Persona 3 in general can be pretty frustrating. I remember fighting the final boss of P3P at about level 70, on the "Chariot" phase, I think, where Nyx was mostly just spamming physical attacks and Almighty Attack. So I'm having the main character guard most of the time, to avoid getting two-shotted by two AAs back to back. Finally, on one turn, Nyx uses AA, critting Yukari (ends MC's block, and gives another turn), uses AA, critting MC, and uses AA again, killing MC. And he still had a turn left over!  >:O So I guess what I'm saying is that I hate bosses that have small chances to kill you in completely unavoidable ways.

Oh, and Persona 4. Shadow Kanji once killed my main character in one hit... from full health... without Tarukaja/Heat Riser... while MC was guarding. Ridiculous! But I guess that game has a weird difficulty curve in general - the first two main bosses are incredibly brutal, and then everything after that is pretty easy.

edit: Oh, and that first story wasn't even on P3P's max difficulty.

A Shiny Pokemon is a Pokemon with a different color scheme and a shine effect when released into battle. It's rare. Like, 1/8192 rare. Really, that's the odds of encountering one. It has no effect on gameplay other than bragging rights.

However there is the masuda method of breading two pokemon from different countries ((Such as trading for a ditto from a person in china , and breeding it with your american charizard.)) makes it 1/1684 , or 8164 I forgot.Not just that in B/W 2 there is an item that increases the chance of the pokemon that appeared is shiny.

Pokevirus?

Another annoying thing about videogames is Cliffhangers. For those of you who've finished Final Fantasy XIII and XIII-2 for example, you'll understand. :c

It'll just keep copying everything you do. And you can't take a break. Don't let 'em touch you!

Fighting a gym leader in Emerald who has tactically weaker but superior levelled pokemon, you are on your last pokemon with near nothing health, but so is he.
The pokemon does an odd dance, followed by the dreaded sprinkles...

That's a hard one to answer, my suggestion is finding a new emulator, check youtube for tutorials  ^-^


I was stuck fighting with my lucario against a ducklett, the only move that did actual damage was quick attack. I would widdle his HP down to a certain amount and then the ducklett would use roost. This would repeat for 25 minutes  :c

I have a Pokemon Red cartridge I use with the Transfer Pak on my N64, lets me play Pokemon Red via the built-in emulator in Pokemon Stadium. :)

Another thing that annoys me, is games where you fail a mission near the end, and it puts you right back at the start, no checkpoints, or even worse, it doesn't auto-restart the mission, and it puts you away from where you accepted the mission in the first place, so you have to get to the quest giver, accept it, and do it all over again...

One of my old cards used to do that to Oblivion, it was because the fan died and it overheated. Which freaked the textures out. My cousin eventually gave me one with a heat sink instead then I bought a card from him for $20 since he decided to build his own PC that we put together, and he didn't need the card anymore.

The barroth I have to say is the most annoying monster I've ever fought in Monster Hunter. I haven't beat the case monster yet but barroth is still annoying.

Perfect World has chests that you can get that have 1 million coin in them. You have to spend $2 to buy a key to open the chest, but until then, you can keep it in your inventory or your bank. I hate 'em.

Why? Because people hoard them. $20 could open 10 of those, which would mean 10 million coin would suddenly be in the economy. Those chests are so potentially economy-breaking, it's scary.

Then you end up losing the game because you settled for that lower card, and your opponent got to 21 in all three piles before you even got to 15.
Maybe it's just me sucking at Caravan, but I hate that stupid card game. It's just like solitare, I always lose!

Lagiacrus is a little meanie who likes to tackle you back if you dodge his charge. If you have problems battling him and getting his attack patron, just focus on his chest and on his back and use hammers, sword-axes, katanas or lances (Yeah, mobile and large weapons). Sword and Shield are just crap on the water, because you don't have the speed and mobility you can have on land.

Wear fire weapons and thunder element armor like the barroth set. In fact, in my opinion, the barroth set is almost the best one in the game, apart of Ibirujo's/Ceadeus' sets.

On topic: When you buy an expensive weapon in a RPG and, when you go out looking for adventures, your first drop is a better weapon than you have. Wasted money.

Most annoying Think in Video Games...hmm...
Boss who heal them self, Player who keep attacking you so you can not do anything.
At the moment I can think anything else.

bosses who take over your healers mind... Makes them heal them... then sacrifices them to use a powerful attack.

Pattern based bosses/bosses that have but one weakness.
I'd rather just shoot at them while dodging their attacks, I find it much more fun. I get that we need a challenge, but following a pattern isn't difficult at all. Surviving long enough to beat them is.

Like a couple of the bosses in Okami.
Spoiler: show
When fighting Orochi, you defeat each of the eight heads by making them drink sake when they roar, then running up their neck and attacking the bell in the middle of them. It's easier if you use your abilities to counter their special attacks.

Spoiler: show
And then there's the ninetailed fox, but at least she's a little more difficult. When she raises her sword, you have to paint a line from a bolt of lightning to her sword to shock her, but she can paint on your scroll to negate whatever ability you're about to use. Shocking her causes eight of her tails to turn into foxes that you have to fight for a limited amount of time. You do it over and over until she only has one tail. o_o If you fail to shock her sword, she'll attack you with it. Ouch.

I kinda had fun with those bosses, though.

How did I forget this? Fuuka from Persona 3. For those who haven't played it, she's a member of your party who doesn't fight, but instead spends each fight making blindingly obvious (and occasionally flat-out stupid) statements in a worried voice, all the time. "*GASP* [Party member] has fallen!" You don't say...

At least the equivalent character in the first part of Persona 4 is pretty great. Basically the same role, only with way more bad puns.

When a boss takes down one of your party members, then you Phoenix down that member the boss attacks that same exact party member you just revived who only has 10% life from the revival and they get knocked right back down. This happens too often in Final fantasy games and wastes away my revival items, it's even worse if that party member is a healer.  :l

It's even worse if the NPC's AI isn't very good. On dragon's dogma my sister's pawns kept jumping off of cliffs instead of taking the safe way down, and escort missions are horrible with some characters.  :c I wish they would make the AI smart enough to avoid common sense hazards like cliffs.

Some games managed to perfect NPC AI like Alyx from half life.The first NPC AI you actually depended on , and thought was a member of your team.Also Claptrap was the first AI that gave you escort missions , and didn't drive you nuts.

Yeah, you have to time those things carefully - i.e. use it only when you know another of your characters will be able to get a heal in before the boss attacks again.

Like Persona 4 (again) - and it's even worse because different enemies have the same model but are different sizes. Why is that a problem? Because it means that with the camera behind your character, it's near-impossible to judge how close you are. Thus, you often end up coming up too short with your sneak attack and getting whacked in the face, or getting too close and getting whacked in the face, which can be disastrous on high difficulties.

To get the good ending (and see the final boss) you have to give an extremely specific and non-intuitive series of answers in a certain dialogue. >:( Getting to the "true" ending and the "true" final boss is arguably even more ridiculous, but that's a bit harder to describe without spoilers.

Disgaea 2 kind of gives you a spoiler hint if you use an infinite HP cheatcode in one of the boss battles because you're supposed to lose the battle.

The story is that a demon overlord cursed your town, turning everyone except the main character into demons. Your family tries to do a summoning to get to him and break the curse, but they accidentally summon his daughter. :o So you have her with you through the story, taking her back to her home.
One of the early boss fights is Etna, from the first game, though they changed her voice actress to some annoying chick. Ugh...

If you use an infinite HP cheatcode and defeat her, you get a little alternate scene where you have taken her title.

     I swear to Luna (no I don't, swearing is bad) that I have played that game... I wanted to say it was a GBA game, but after a quick Google search... I was wrong. I cannot seem to remember the game I was thinking of! And that is annoying...
     But back to the topic at hand. I don't mind games with multiple endings, or even multiple stories. It makes the game have GREAT replay value. What's the fun in playing a game that only has one ending? "Oh hey, in this room there is a monster that attacks you with poison." "Turn right here and get a special item that gives you a boost to your health" I'd rather play a game that is like this: "Oh hey, in this room the monster will attack you if you are good, and give you a magic sword if you are evil." Or "Turn right here and get a special item that gives you a damage boost if you saved that little girl back there, or it gives you the ability to get health from damage dealt if you let that vampire kill her." It makes the game WAY more interesting.
What I dislike, is games that don't let you backtrack after you reach a certain point. It makes collecting all the items impossible, and I hate when I can't collect everything.

Sometimes, in some games, I don't like for my choices to have too much weight. I've been hesitant to play Fable 3 because of what they've said, that my choices as a ruler in the second half will have quite some weight to them. I tend to be completely evil in the Fable games. I felt kinda bad in Fable 2 when I accidentally ruined that farm town with the monks. I didn't know choosing the evil side of the quest about the Temple of Light would ruin the town, but then again, I should've thought about that, as it makes sense that it would.

You're talking about Michelle Ruff. She's not actually a terrible VA, she just... can't do comedy. At all.  :c

Etna didn't used to sound so... preppy and princessy in the first game. That's what I don't like about her voice in the second game. :c She sounded cool in the first game, and then the second game comes along, and she's suddenly a princessy prep. I haven't heard her in the third game since I haven't played it yet, though.

It sucks, but it has to happen. At least in Assassin's Creed, with Ezio, they made some pretty good reasons.
In Brotherhood,
Spoiler: show
The villa ends up under attack while Ezio's asleep. He wakes up and has to rush out of there, only managing to grab a sword and a hidden blade, thus leaving behind his other weapons, second hidden blade, and awesome epic super boss armor. Why does he leave it behind? He gets shot and ends up losing consciousness while trying to escape. Why did the epic assassin get shot? He was distracted by the jerk who took the Apple from his uncle.

In Revelations,
Spoiler: show
Well, the official trailer actually shows you what happens at the very beginning of Revelations. He gets captured and one of his hidden blades gets broken, so he ends up with only one hidden blade, a sword, and I think no armor, or at least no proper armor. The broken hidden blade opens the way for him to get a hookblade from the local assassins.

Sometimes, they give a proper explanation about that. However, for the sake of gaming, it isn't bad if the character starts again at level one, if at least he got something learned from the last game.

VS the AI:
~AI enemies shooting at impossible ranges. What the heck....Arma 2 is the worst defender of this. The enemy bots can see AND shoot you from miles away, and I mean miles. This game is real scale, replica local of a Russian area. It's a good game, but you'll be taking sniper rifles more than any other gun in the game.

~Enemies capabilities exceed your own when they aren't programed to OR shouldn't be programed to. A good example of this is in Dark Souls. Some of the enemies have the capability to attack you through walls. Another good example is in Rainbow Six Vegas 2, where the enemies "FPS screen" moves faster than their character model, commonly resulting in being shot by a guy who isn't facing you. Note-You die fast in Rainbow Six Vegas.

~Physic AI. I'm pretty sure we all know this one, where the AI seem to know everything your doing or plan to do. (TES) Oblivion guards tend to just know you stole something or killed someone and in fighter games your opponent often counters every attack you throw at them.

~Retarded AI allies. This urks me to death. If we can have insanely OP enemy AIs, why can't our allies be the same? We've got AI who just walk into hazzards, AI who can't shoot straight, AI who don't do what they are supposed to do, AI who don't heal you, AI who do something stupid like use pills and then a med kit (Left for Dead >:/)...come on Vid Game companies, it's 2012, give us better AI!

I can say Left 4 deads AI has saved me numerous times but they tend to not be smart when you want them to get in the safe house or sometimes they just act stupid, I think they also suck at avoiding car alarms.  DD:

Bosses like Sephiroth in KH2 who require insane amounts of reaction and memorization to beat, or for you to mass stock up on high potions but I think you can only hold like 5 items maybe a little more in the battle menu. (Nothing ever seems to block his crazy limit break when he gets 3 or 4 bars left except reflectga I think that's what it's called and you can only use that around 5 times then have to wait for the animation to end, and by that time you're low on MP in the battle from his crazy harvest attacks.)

The final boss on Shadow of Colossus was kind of crazy as well at least I sucked at reaching it's head.

For a crazy bonus boss, KH2 Sephiroth wasn't that bad, especially compared to KH1 Sephiroth.

And neither is close to the bat-*yay* insanity that is

Possessed Zack
Seriously, that guy... for those who haven't played the game, he spends most of the fight spamming a quick sequence of very fast teleporting attacks that goes on about four times longer than is necessary to kill you on Proud Mode. Get hit by one strike, and it's almost impossible to escape the ones that come after it, i.e. you die. As far as I can tell, the only reliable way of surviving is to use a certain type of certain type of special attack, which makes you invincible for the duration, if you time your button presses very well.

I've kind of learned how to beat his harvest attacks you time it just right and cure as he stops talking or near that, it may use MP but you would have lost the MP anyways so it saves your life often. I'm either level 40 or 50 so being under leveled probably doesn't help. Not to mention my save is a few years old so I had to re-learn how to play the game. Sometimes I just like to re-fight bosses for fun so I save before the fight then make a separate save afterwards.

Sephiroth 40+ wins I have around 1-2 wins.  ovO

I can't remember KH1 Sephiroth it's been so long since I last played KH1, and I don't have KH1 anymore.

There's no such thing. They're OUR kills because league of legends is about the team, the team composition, the team tactics and the teamwork.
Some people care more about their kills than they do about functioning as one with others and winning.

That is one of many things that annoy me.

Depends on the game. Sometimes it's quite enjoyable.

An annoying thing is when a series changes the controller layout and a bit of gameplay.

Assassin's Creed 3 is amazing but the controls are odd at first. :P

Personally, I love the voices in B-K.  :P

And in answer to your question: because voice acting an entire game's worth of dialogue requires a heck of a lot more memory that could be used for other things, not to mention you have to pay 'em to do a lot more talking.

Can't be too completely realistic, though. There's a reason some soldiers end up with PTSD.
I think there is a war video game out there, though, that has so much realism that the way that you help someone with their wounds in the game is how you'd do it in real life. There was actually a guy who played that game so much that when he happened upon a wreck in real life, he was able to save a person's life because the ambulance was late. He knew exactly what he was doing because of that game. O:

It still annoys me that ghost is super effective against ghost and that psychic types can learn shadow ball. Because if you faced my team, you would knock it out so easily with shadow ball and since psychic types are normally used, it's goodbye for my team. >:/

I take this back, because I just learned ALMOST EVERY SINGLE POKEMON CAN LEARN SHADOW BALL THROUGH TM! >:O

This is probably just me, but I get annoyed by tutorials. Especially if it's a long tutorial at the beginning of the game. I much prefer "tutorials" in the pause menu or something.

Why I avoid the PvP servers in MMOs. Too many jerks. I'm afraid of it. And who can blame me, when I've been told about people who'd stand outside towns waiting for people to enter or leave so they could attack them?

A lot of Mabinogi's community went way downhill after PVP was added, campers insulting each other over a game because someone picked elf or someone picked giant. I usually only PVP with my friends in right click duel options or with people who have a good sportsmanship attitude.

Mabinogi's revival system was also really bad after getting defeated in Elf VS Giant you had to wake up on the exact spot you got knocked out in and they just hit you back down. I don't know why the developers didn't add a revive in town option or turn off PVP option from the knockout menu in PVP battles.

I'd have to agree with that it's annoying if someone says that to any gamer girl.

It's not easy finding good gaming communities almost every MMO I've played has had a bad community though you find a few good people in the bunch that don't act like that.

My sister tends to play male characters in MMO's because of the communities usually, I think RS was one of the offenders that made her play male characters in a few MMO's.

Me my sister and my cousin play infection on Halo Reach, we like to set the zombie team to super fast running speeds and high jumping, and if you become last man standing you get a 2x shield and fast shield regen rate so you at least stand a chance by yourself against the zombie team.

What really sucks is if you shoot your own teammates by mistake because they run in front of you, even more so if it kills them my cousin actually killed two team mates by mistake so they kicked him, and because we were on the same Xbox it kicked all of us so they lost 3 team members.  :s

Hey, I usually make despective jokes like, but they are mainly adressed to people very near to my and without any bad intentions (ironically). However, I equally expect them to do the same with me. In fact, I enjoy sometimes the use of imagination they perform for some insults and, it usually ends in a friendly insulting fight. I would put some examples but I think I should keep PG here.  X3

But, anyways, the lesson about friendship of today is that, sometimes, love is expressed with hate,... loving hate. Of course, it is pretty easy to know when they are joking with you, or at you. And, as I said before, if you do those kind of "loving gestures" to your friends, expect the same from them. You aren't a good pranker until you learn to laugh at people's pranks.

Whatever, on topic, things I hate in gaming? Not being able to go back on most of the old side-scroller platform games to get that power-up I missed

Lydia is pretty dumb. I mean, when I take her into a fight against bandits on my Redguard character, she always yells "Skyrim belongs to the nords!" and other stuff like that, despite the fact that I'm not even a Nord. Not the wisest or most tactful time to demonstrate your massive racism, Lydia.

Okay, now stuff like that does still make me mad... in my WoW days, I always winced when I saw names like "Theeliteone" and "Xx<something>xx". On occasion it became so bad that it actually looped around and became hilarious, like when I saw someone named "behindyou" and then "behindyouu". The first one ticked me off, but the second one made me laugh; who would possibly think that that was such a brilliant name that they had to have it, even if it meant mangling it?  lol

It's always soooo weird when someone else takes the nickname or username you tend to use a lot. It's kind of irritating too. You can't help but feel like "That's my thing! >:(" Especially when you have friends who know you by that nickname or username.

That's why I'm waiting until I get my own Minecraft account before I make other accounts for stuff with the name I wanna use. I wanna make sure the name is available on Minecraft first.

It was weird for me finding out Trege was taken on other forums and video games It's actually why I had to use Trege100 for my messengers. It's mainly odd because I made up that name for one of my FFXI characters that was in my sister's story as one of her characters brothers. I didn't think anyone would use the name Trege as it just seems uncommon. So it's slightly annoying when that name is taken in online games or messengers.  x3

It's the most bizarre feeling in the world, when you feel like a name you've come up with is really original, especially if it has two parts to it, but someone else somehow had the exact same idea. How does that happen?! That's why I wanted there to be a second part after "Rozalyn".

That weird problem, though, is the reason why, as soon as I get my Minecraft account, I'm gonna make accounts on various other places using my Minecraft account name. Bam. Preemptive strike, grab up the accounts before someone else takes my name. I'm planning on...
Tumblr, I guess
Deviantart, maybe
Facebook page - why not?
Twitter, definitely
Youtube, definitely x2

Dunno where else, though.

Yeah sometimes when my name is taken I add either numbers or something random. Like I have a pet red fox named Rayuken alongside my pet silver fox on Mabinogi so I ended up putting Trege Rayuken once as my first name and last name on yahoo since it requires that for an account.

Rozalyn seems pretty original though and having an underscore before the second part helps as well so you may not have to worry about it being taken.

Yeah, had a couple of my names used before... either me a long time ago, and I've forgotten, or someone else. More thinking it was someone else though. :D

Most recently, in a couple of games I've played, I find it annoying when mission objectives aren't necessarily all that clear.

For me it was Resident Evil 5, generally it's ok, it's a fairly 1 track game, can't deviate anywhere, but there's 1 point right at the start of the game, where you get attacked by a large mass of enemies, and you're meant to run past them all and get to a house. But as far as I could tell, there was no indication of that being what you were meant to do, so I died twice in a row before my friend ran into a house and a cutscene randomly started.

I didn't like RE5 as much as the classic ones, I like playing the old ones on PS2 and GCN although I don't like RE4 much either but I do watch my sister play RE4-5 and RE6 is fun as well it feels like the controls work better for the gameplay style than it did for RE4-5.

(I think the classic Resident Evil games do have puzzle's that take a while to figure out without much clue on what to do though if I recall correctly. o_o)

I barely remember the old Resident Evil games. I watched my dad play them when I was a child. I loved it. There was one part in one of the games where he had trouble with a licker in a hallway. He couldn't seem to get past it. He kept getting a cutscene of it attacking him and then his blood hitting a window. Can't remember how he finally got past it.

The most recent old one I played lately is RE Zero it isn't as classic as RE1 or 2 I haven't played them in a while, on outbreak file 2 though I ran into a licker in the hallway on the police station scenario it eventually got me because I was injured and couldn't run anymore so the licker caught up and destroyed me after Yoko got pulled out of a window.  :I

When a follower NPC has a habit of disappearing, especially at the worst times. I stopped playing Skyrim because my Lydia kept disappearing, and I could never find her. I didn't know if she was dead or had just vanished again. I really dunno what was wrong with her. She was so glitchy. Followers aren't supposed to be arrested, but once when she disappeared, I found her in a cell in the Whiterun prison. o.O

I was so mad and annoyed when I had entered Whiterun and she was nowhere to be seen, so I decided to wander while I waited for her to show up. When I found her in that cell, it was both annoying and funny at the same time.
Guard: Something wrong?

Yeah, followers are wonky... I have a mod that adds a crapload of new followers/other NPCs, and there's one follower that has a ridiculously awesome accent... but she still gets in the way because of generic NPC pathing problems. E.g. if I leave Whiterun and jump over the gate to go south, I have to wait quite awhile for her to catch up.

Haven't personally tried this one, but he's probably not as absurd as Yiazmat from FFXII. I'm told he takes half an hour to beat... if you have a maxed-out party and a good strategy, and otherwise he takes manyhours.  :D

Nvidia and AMD are the 2 good ones.

To play latest games on Ultra, I'd recommend a late GTX 4/5/6 series for Nvidia, or a late HD 6/7 series for AMD. AMD, you want the second digit to be an 8 or a 9 really, and the first digit to be a 6 or a 7.

When you die in Terraria or Minecraft, and lose all your items in a really far away place you have no hope of getting to with no armour.

Yeah.... also I hate racing games where you sometimes hit something that isn't there due to a slightly off collision box... Like you pass close to a wall, but don't touch it, but the game acts like you collided with it.

The Walking Dead overall is sad and kind of messed up. But that actually kind of causes it to have some realism. In reality, we wouldn't all be Leon or Alice (Resident Evil games/movies respectively). It wouldn't be an action movie. It wouldn't be a comedy like Zombieland or whatever that movie was where the one guy really wanted a Twinkie. It'd be cold, harsh, tough, and sad. Only the strongest - physically, mentally, and emotionally - would make it. We'd probably even end up with people doing what Crawford did.

With video games, it's kinda cool sometimes when they have some realism in them.

On-topic: It's annoying when some video games are super unrealistic in ridiculous ways that make you go "Oh come on!"

Yep...

Rubber banding AI in racing games can be annoying sometimes, it works for some games, not for others... I find it ok in a game like Mario Kart, but when a game like Midnight Club LA, which is supposed to be semi-realistic, has insane rubber banding, that's just frustrating.

(And I mean it seriously has insane rubber banding, a VW Golf can keep up with a high performance sports car. You only need to own like 3 cars to beat every race in the game.)

I think weapons in Mario Kart make the rubber banding seem less frustrating than games where you can do little to stop them overtaking you other than to ram them. In MC:LA, it's best to stay in 2nd until near the end and then overtake, otherwise you might just get passed by a jogging man at the finishing straight.

Ubisoft seems to be having fun putting naval battle in Assassin's Creed games. But you know what? I don't play Assassin's Creed for naval battles and junk like that.

I can tolerate the other annoying things in Assassin's Creed because it actually fits the game. You know, things like having to trail someone without getting noticed? Those missions are annoying sometimes. But it's part of being an assassin.

I signed up to secretly kill evil people who intend to take over the world, not get on a ship and shoot cannons at other ships!

You should say the opposite. One hit kills shows a sense of strength , and weakness. If you fight something strong a one hit kill will tell you not to mess with it until you get stronger. In fact if there weren't any one hit kills pretty much every single game that involves combat would be terrible.

I really enjoyed that battle system. It gave more opening to strategy thinking than the normal battle system, and I had to spend hours organizing my cards (I beat the japanese version of the game way before they released an english one).

But this sequels in portable consoles annoys me too. I can really say that all of the Kingdom Hearts games are important to the history in general, even though you can still understand without having played them. Chain of Memories, Birth By Sleep and Dream Drop Distance being the most important of the games outside the main ones, as CoM and 3D directly involve the main characters and BBS just explains a lot of the game's history and philosophy.
Spoiler: Real spoilers about the serie • show
And both BBS and 358/2 Days are about important characters that will reapear in the serie, and some of them really reapeared in 3D. I haven't played this one yet, but I've seen videos.

*Facedesk* I really wish I'd get around to finishing KH2 and move on to playing Birth By Sleep. I borrowed it from a family friend, and I'll have to use my mom's PSP to play it, so I feel bad for putting that off.

And the only strategizing I wanna do is in a tactics style game like Final Fantasy Tactics or Disgaea.

Speaking of Harry Potter, I owned a copy of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Aska-blarg. Anyways I actually think it's the best Harry Potter game, maybe because it's one of three Harry Potter games I've played. You get to freely roam Hogwarts and the woods, which is pretty cool. Anyways the worst part of the game was the stealth missions, along side the graphics. x3

When this isn't the "Things that annoy you in general" thread.

I despise games where the vehicle control is awful.
~Awkward turning
~Bouncing on terrain and flipping around, coming to a dead stop when you hit just about anything
~Slow turret control
~When in 3rd person the camera is too close to the vehicle and forces you to play in 1st person perspective

I know a couple of those aren't all vehicle and the camera has nothing to do with the control of the vehicle but it's still an issue.
More games should have vehicles like Halo that are easy to control and still get the same job done....better.

Yea, I mistook the threads. It's easy to mistake "Most annoying things in video games" for "Dumb things that annoy you" when you are not paying attention :P


The fact that the best online game's servers are in US or Europe, what makes me usually get a high ping. So, the things I'm seeing have already happened. Like if I want to evade in Guild Wars 2, I need to do it before I see the enemy attacking. And that's no too easy.

People whining to other people to mute their mics when you can simple mute them yourself. (Not saying you guys are bad, this just made me think of this)

Team killers.


Story time!
Last weekend I was playing RO2 as a Soviet commander.
I was killed by a team mate. Why? Because he wanted more ammo for his PPSh.

And because I was a commander, I decided to do something for him.
When I spawned I searched him and when I found him, I shot him in the head with Nagant-revolver saying "Traitors will be shot."

I have no idea what he did after that. I was a little busy.

Forgetting to turn off voice chat in the game World of Warcraft, and then having two people 'saying' different lines from The Secret Saturdays like this:

"MMm, this is good, what is it?"

Random british voice: That's panda meat you prat..

I was playing a panda-like character, and the two of them were completely ignoring the rest of the party, one was the healer too. I was in a dungeon with the two of them, and a few others. That was what really annoyed me. Also the fact I was forced off a cliff by the dungeon monster or whatever they're called...

Games with unfixed map exploits like being able to jump in between an unsealed clip and shooting people through a wall without them being able to see you.  What's worse is playing on a server where the clan ALLOWS these glitches because they are "a map defect" and not cheating...

yeah. That. The problem is that when your support, some people say that you're not helping since you aren't doing enough damage. Like my last game, I was Soraka and I was doing the supportive shenanigans. They raged because I couldn't do enough damage. I raged and sold all my items ((they where def and HP boosting only)) and bought a rod of age...
The fun part is that we were almost dead and because of the rod of age, I made a pentakill and led my team to victory. My teammates said that I cheated... The community is just rude sometimes...

Also, something annoying= enemies that can survive any hit and live with one HP and that can heal itself after. ((Like the ability sturdy in pokemon))

And having cooldowns far too large to cast whenever needed the most.
There's also the case that your adc might overextend a lot and results in them getting ganked every often. It sucks when they blame you for why they're losing when you're playing your role just right.

ScareScraper/Thrill Tower really gets you to using your teamwork. Quite annoying when you get trapped in a large jar such as in the video or being trapped in a carpet  by a door. And being "Cursed" by curse gas, which reverses your controls.


It's quite ridiculous when it's in "Rush Mode" such as in the video. You can't leave the room when you're trapped. So if everyone gets to the exit, while another is trapped, it's kind of a hassle returning to a certain room to Free them...

So I was playing Minecraft (lone survival), and it was night time. I wanted to take down some skeletons for the bones so that I could get bonemeal, and grow my crops. Two skeletons spawned, with a creeper behind them.

Being very under-armored (only leather boots o.o), I just barely managed to take them both down, and then a SSSSS sound was behind me.

Intel should be replaced with a bomb so after more than 3 minutes of holding it, it will explode. Violently.

It's a lot worst in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon.

If you glitch through a wall, you're stuck like that until you restart the mission/quit.

I saw this one poor team-mate I had in ScareScraper that got stuck behind a cabinet. He couldn't get out and couldn't do anything else. x3

I already have 2 "hack demos" uploaded for Li'lDerpy and LaptopBrony, now it's time to work with DerpshyDashkie and see how long it takes to make it 3.

I hate setting up a skirmish for SFC3 because of my wanting a specific officer setup:
(Derpy Tactical, RD-Helm, Luna Security, Twilight Ops, Pinkie Pie-Engineering, Fluttershy Medical)
which can take anywhere from 1-6 minutes to do, and then I launch the game and forget to set the gametype and i'm playing base assault....

It's not from speaking or typing rude, as there are set "Calls" in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, but it's rather rude when someone goes "afk" (Well, away from the 3DS or just not participating) in ScareScraper.

Especially during a Boss Battle or Rush Mode!

One of the players just stood there, and we've already found the exit. Time was ticking. Collected Time Pieces, and one Luigi just stood in one spot.

And one time, I only reached the first boss of the ScareScraper in Endless (difficulty goes up slightly per floor) from the continuous spawning of other ghosts scaring Luigi and attacking him, while draining Boss HP. Requires teamwork to keep the ghosts away while battling the boss, and help decrease the HP faster. Virtually impossible on your own.

You could probably guess what happens next... GAME OVER! You ran out of time!

They're far worse on Arma 2 and 3.
Arma sorta lacks a good anti hack so quite often you'll get sudden deaths across the board and being spawned in the ocean or high up in the sky.
The worst is when you're spawned at base with about 300+ vehicles piled all over the place and they explode and continuously explode, sometimes it'll crash the server or even your client.

It's even worse since the child in my case CANNOT READ.
Tell me how often you read in a video game in an hour of gameplay? Try it, just make tally marks of each time you read something in a video game in one hour.

Trying to tell a child NOT to play a specific game and they keep trying to play it while you're not looking.

Tell me how often you read in a video game in an hour of gameplay? Try it, just make tally marks of each time you read something in a video game in one hour.

Trying to tell a child NOT to play a specific game and they keep trying to play it while you're not looking.

Machine-gunners. What's worse is two. The worst, however, is when they're at a proper position as to making the area-of-denial right where the target point is, and not being able to shoot them before they send you to an unheroic death. It is a very good plan, though.

Leeroys are actually people who would just run into somewhere without a proper plan knowing there will be no chance like leeroy Jenkins who became a meme when he started the term. In tf2 there is no such thing as no chance of survival so you aren't a leeroy

Any type of curse attacks.
Pokemon hurts for 1/4 of your health each turns
Final fantasy is the doom effect which gives you time to defeat the boss before getting insta-killed.
Some MMO which drops your stats drastically.

Being cursed in Dark Souls halves your Max HP until uncursed. Even death cannot save you from a curse.
There was a game (that I can't remember the name of) where being cursed prevented you from attacking at all, forcing you to flee.

Joining a friend's multiplayer game makes you go through four loading screens if you're in the multiplayer menu. Three if you're at the main menu.
The first loading screen takes you to the menu to check if you have the same DLCs as the player/friend you're joining. The next enters multiplayer, then immediately takes you to the third loading screen to pick your character. It goes to the final loading screen and you're in your friend's game.

Ooh! I love me some Chivalry. Don't get me started on what annoys me in Chivalry.

Protip: Make sure to yell a lot and spam X-X-2 (laugh).

On topic: I recently bought Dishonored for the PC from the steam sale and I'm really loving it. Like a lot of stealth games, most if not all the times I go non lethal, knockouts, or just simply sneaking around guards. Killing is bad! I prefer to love and tolerate with hugs!  <3

I'm playing on the hardest setting, I get through the first "mission", did all the optional stuff, never spotted, and never killed anyone. At the end of the mission, it said I killed one person. I flipped out... I looked online to find out why/how.

Slightly NSFW
Spoiler: show
I remember knocking out a few of the thugs before, and had one of their bodies near some rats. The swarms of rats in this game will attack/devour people. The rats swarmed a guy I put to sleep, ate him alive, and I remember exactly saying "Welp! I didn't do it! Not my problem now. Rats killed him, not me". Stupid rats.  :l

Yeah this is just awful parenting. I would not let my young child play Call of Duty online, let alone the game itself. There's some awful people on the Internet, me included 

On topic: quick-saves and quick-loads. Nothing is wrong at all with the ability to save when you want. It's amazing and puts you in control when you want to start/stop a game. I've been recently playing Dishonored and I'm suffering from this tailspin which I seem to do with most PC games.

I become the most neurotic perfectionist. Since I can retry an event or situation quickly, easily, and without penalty, I try my best to get the best possible outcome. From my early days of playing Doom trying to conserve ammo and taking little to no damage to currently with Dishonored trying to go undetected/non lethal. I'm reluctant to use sleep darts because I might need that one dart later!

(http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120720204757/finalfantasy/images/c/c5/XII_yiazmat_render.png)

Don't get it? Well, this thing (from Final Fantasy XII) is annoying because...
1: It has a little more than 50,000,000 HP!!! And the most damage you can deal to it is 9,999!!!  X3 It took me about 6 hours for me to slay such a beast!!!  o.O
2: He has a quantity of insta-kill moves that's more than Ponyville's Population!!! Therefore making it a pain to avoid.
3: Taking words from Ganon (in CD-I) "You will DIE!!!"  :3 The only good thing is that you can get out the battle, save and heal, than go back (but this can be hard, as you can't really do that easily)

If someone wants to cheat in a single player game, I say go for it. Not like he's speed hacking in a VAC server in TF2 or something.

yeah, thats how you do it... if you want to completely kill the point of Animal crossing, and cut down its replay ability by hundreds of hours XD

Exactly! Time Traveling is not the point of the game. It's enjoying the nice, slow, lively gameplay.

There's so much content, which makes it really great. But if you want to get them all in one measly day/week/month, then there's no longer a point.

Well, uncommon drops in Warframe typically are in bundles of 10-50. Commons are around 75- 200, And Rares... Usually 1's :U

When a teammate starts talking about good they are
when they gloat over EVERY single thing they did right
When one guy starts over glorifying a trash/useless item I literaly just threw away 10sec ago
when someone starts leeching off all of the exp and $ when they're doing nothing
over glorifying their own class/job when it isn't even op
when your team runs for the loot instead of coming to patch my wounds so i wouldn't bleed to death in 10sec.

And now for some situations that happened to me:

*Kills boss monster and it drops a rare item*
Me: OMG finally killed it! *runs to loot it*
Friend that didn't do jack the whole fight runs faster and loots it instead: "I deserve this item, I did ALL of the work"
Me: *Activates PVP mode*

*Dying on the floor fighting off enemies*
*Friends starts the car and drives to help heal me*
Me: Oh thank god-
*Friend "accidentally" runs me over and kills me*
Respawn UI/Bot: You have been charged $XXXX for the respawn. Have a nice day!
Me: I'm never getting in a car w u irl...

Me: *bleeding to death 2inch from teammate*
Me: Hey [Name] can you heal me?
-no response-
Me: [Name]?
-Death timer going down-
Me: [Name]!!!!!!!!
-Dies-
-Respawn-
Me: Wtf [Name]. I was calling your name and I was dying right next to you! Why didn't you help?!
[Team: Oh, you we're?
Me: *Face palm*

If you don't save over the autosave at the beginning of the game, you can just load that every time you want to start a new player.  It's right at the part where you create your character, so there's no wait!

If you don't save over the autosave at the beginning of the game, you can just load that every time you want to start a new player.  It's right at the part where you create your character, so there's no wait!

I loathe dealing with them. Any of them. There's no point of firing the "hate cannon" just because they haven't experienced the game yet, or just thinks the genre is bad, despite that game having many fans itself.

I don't really get why cartoony games are hated on so much. The people that hate on cartoony games tend to really enjoy realistic graphics and I don't really know why. Realistic graphics can be, in my opinion, very dull and boring a lot of the time. Everything's always gray, faded blue and dirt brown. Plus camera shake from explosions makes it all look like TV static. :x

You know, I've had that exact same issue on my AMD machine and If I mess up something with my graphical settings, I have his registry editor fix to make the game textures appear properly... Like, some graphical effects were incredibly low res; basically just pixely dots in place of explosions, fire, ice, lightning, and smoke... And also some transparency issues with backgrounds that also made parts of enemies invisible :I Like, all I could see was either the head or where I was being shot from XD

Yeah, the only good port for that was A Link To The Past, but I'm not a fan of the added voice clips. I mostly liked it for its glitchiness. The GOOD kind of glitchiness. The kind that can produce VERY funny and/or USEFUL effects.

A while ago, I watched Pewdie play Kingdom Hearts and decided to finally give the games a try. I instantly fell in love, so...! To be ready for Kingdom Hearts 3 I find myself playing through them all. Currently playing Re:Coded, and let me tell ya... I do not get used to the new controls and the tiny screen.

So... Game series that spread out through many different consoles and game series that change control schemes (Due to being on different consoles). :I

I should be done with it by tomorrow at least (Short game from what I read), so I needn't get too used to it... X3

Oh,and also Esbern.
Spoiler: show
Some reasons(source: http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Esbern_(Skyrim) ) :
For many, Esbern will be severely glitched. His sound files may not play, which leads to him standing in silence. As a consequence, it is impossible to proceed in the quest A Cornered Rat.
Even when he is talking properly, his door will sometimes not open.
When dragon hunting after recruiting three followers into the Blades, he may only say, "do you need something?" No other conversation options will be available.
Esbern may attack for no reason.

Anyway, on topic:

Inability to swim

When, in your team of 6, 3 of them fall behind in level while the other 3 boost ahead because of too many type effectivenesses in a row. I'm talkin to you, type-themed Pokémon gyms!

So many battles in a row before you can get to another Pokémon center.

Annoying rival battles that take 10 tries to beat.

When you start running out of money, and you need revives and potions for the gym leader.

I'm Playing Just Cause, basically Grand Theft Auto, destabilizing a fascist government edition, the game uses the save points system despite being a open world game, despite this, it's still pretty fun, if the save points are pretty scarce, as in they're kilometers away from each other.

So I'm liberating a city from the government, it's my first large city, first large scale engagement, before the heaviest vehicle I saw was a jeep with a machine gun mounted on it and a attack chopper, and the heaviest weapon anyone carried was a small machine gun, this time? There where tanks EVERYWHERE, people had RPGs and grenade launchers, this was no longer a battle I could slaughter the enemy on foot. So once I killed enough troops (well half the kill bar, the other half was done by the NPCs duking it out for me) to be able to capture their flag (and liberate the city) I realize it's on the other end of town, half a kilometer away. So I bolt for it, mad dash, you know, and I do pretty well, the forest had maybe 6 dudes, half of whom are on my side, and the helicopter firing inaccurate shots at me, once I reach back into the city, I realize staying on the open rode would be suicide with the constant explosives going of everywhere, tanks blasting away at infantry, and the helicopters having a open field to turn me into Swiss cheese, so I run into the alley ways, too small for tanks, chopper can only hit me from 2 angles, and I'm only a 150 meters away from the flag, about to win right? So I have to dash out of the alleys and across the street to get to the next area for my to make my way through, and wouldn't you know it a rebel truck passes a foot infront of me, just about to crush me, but it misses so I don't slow down....and the very next moment, I get crushed under the treads of a tank, despite having like 90% left, just a 100 meters away from victory.
In a battle with RPGs, grenades, tanks, and helicopters, what kills me? Not looking both ways before I cross the road.

In LoL, I main support and 75% of the time I have to deal with this:

ADC: OMG YOU SUCK SO MUCH. WORST SUPPORT EVER. GO DIE IN A HOLE USELESS SELFISH SCUMBAG. ONLY THINKS ABOUT YOURSELF.

And in my mind I just wanna say the follow below but ain't no body got time to type all that during a fight.

Yep, i'm just a support. The only role that's made to dedicate EVERYTHING for YOU. Spend all my money just to buy wards for YOU, give all all of the cs to YOU, block enemy skill shots for YOU, heal and shield YOU non-stop, and make sure YOU don't die. Now listen you whiney, self centered, brat, you better shut up and be grateful you got SOMEBODY watching your back.

Games that you can literally get stuck on halfway through the storyline because you put your level up points in the wrong place.

As a great game reviewer once said: "Oh no, it looks like you put all your points into scratching your bum to get past that itchy trouser section. Too bad you'll never see those enemies again and all the enemies from now on are only weak to nose-picking. Better luck next time!"

Then look forward for it in 18 months. I give it 6 months before it goes free to play, WoW will be the only successful subscription based game, I guarantee you ES:O will go free to play within the year of it's release.

Well, you can do that, your Discord after all.

No seriously, name 1 subscription based game other then WoW that is by any means successful?
Let me give you a good example.
What is the one thing a Subscription based game needs to be successful? Loyal followers.
Star Wars is one of the biggest names in the franchise game, I can say without a doubt, almost everyone in the first-world nations knows about it, and most of them like it.
When LucasArts made a MMORPG, Star Wars, Old Republic, it was a subscription based game, yet within a year of it launch, they turned the game into free to play because no one was willing to subscribe to them.
If bloody STAR WARS couldn't hold a loyal subscription based following, what makes you think Elder Scrolls will have enough subscribers for them to not be pressured to go free to play?

Once I was playing TF2 and my brother comes downstairs and tells me to look something up on the Internet...in the middle of a match....AND HE HAS A LAPTOP IN HIS ROOM.
So I use the Task manager to open Chrome,and suddenly everything glitches and he says "nevermind" and leaves.

Might be old news since Skyrim's been out for a while and has been updated since this happened, but this is the only thing that comes to mind.

So one time I was trying to get married and decided to wait till the wedding day in the church, then I waited until an hour before the decided time. And once the hour passed...

nothing happened.

So I waited another hour. Still nothing. Two hours later? I was still standing by the later alone. Three hours later and it felt like the priest was beginning to think I was crazy (and I was getting extremely bored). Then I decided to wait 24, and wouldn't you know it! In walks my fiancee a day late for our wedding! I would've cast a fireball at her if I didn't like her character so much.

I'm with you on that one, friend! I was so annoyed when I found out Wildstar was going with a B2P/P2P model. Could be worse though, there was another MMO I had my eye on for a long time called Wakfu, and when the first trailer was released it said it was going to be a massive FREE RTS MMO. After the release of open beta, there was talking of micro transactions, which would've been reasonable if that meant an in-game cash shop. Oh, but that's not the road this company took. Upon the day of release, it was revealed that Wakfu was a new subscription based MMO, and if you were unlucky enough to not have the money to pay, your character was completely wiped if they were over level 20, you couldn't do anything outside the tutorial zone, and you couldn't get anywhere without NPCs telling you to come back "when you're worthy".

I'll keep it spoiler free:
The game's story is just amazing(ly) depressing and very well written. At the beginning of the game, you meet Ellie, a young girl who you're hired to escort to a militia group known as "The Fireflies." Society has fallen to a new type of fungal spores that invade the host's brain and turns them into zombie like creatures. Throughout the game, you'll enjoy the amazing and sometimes scary world and find alot of side stories. The game is very different from most apocalyptic games. Most of the time, you have to result to stealth tactics in order to evade or ambush enemies rather than just pulling a trigger. You also have very limited resources which can be collected and scavenged around the game, which keeps it more realistic. And aside from the zombies/Clickers (their appropriate names), society has fallen so you also have to fight other survivors, known as "Hunters," who are out for your equipment.

When you're in first place, you pretty much have zero chance of getting anything better than a red shell. That's because you're in first place.

Bethesda; in their infinite wisdom, broke lip-sync in 1.9 nearly a year ago and have yet to fix it or even acknowledge the problems existence.



I'd like to know why it is that Bethesda gets away with not only releasing bugging games, but choosing to ignore them indefinitely. As a hardcore immersion junky this bug bothers me a lot more than it probably bothers most others. Some may consider it a minor issue, but a minor issue is still an issue. I'm sick of Bethesda apologists kissing their bum and defending their non-existent QA department to the grave.

After all, how can we criticize Bethesda's QA team? It's not like they miss things like jarring animation glitches in the very beginning of their game:



Or somehow manage to put borked lines of dialog in:



People need to stop enabling Bethesda's incompetence by doing their jobs for them. One look at the novella that is the USKP's patch notes shows just how much of their issues they leave for the community to deal with. If it was any other game developer people would be outraged.

When the amazing game you play is ruined by the in game resources item requirements being utterly ridiculous, I'm looking at you Warframe Economy Dog (term friend coined for the person in charge of item prices).  :l

Or when the item you really really want can't be gotten through the regular way you get other items and instead you have to wait until a event happens that gives you the right drop, ESPECIALLY! when you need several of these items to build and then combine into what you really want. (I'll never get my Vauban Warframe..... :c)

Or after a long hiatus of playing you restart the game and suck at it.....and then realize you weren't ever good at.  :c

Just a couple minutes ago from this post I laid down my trap in front of an impaired monster that was fleeing in the direction of where I placed my trap. Right when the monster recovered and started moving again it flat out CHANGED DIRECTIONS, which never EVER happens, EVER, and went for another area.

The most annoying thing about videogames: not having enough time to play them.......My friend lended me a couple of games and among them is Metal Gear Solid 3 (yes I never played it) BUT OF COURSE SCHOOL WON'T LET ME PLAY THEM.
SCHOOL. SCHOOL EVERYWHERE.


It's actually a good thing really.
You'll find that later on in life, if you have too much time for video games they aren't as exciting.
When you have little time for them you can enjoy them and appreciate them more.

That's how I feel about them anyway; still trying to find a job and such with no plans right now so video games take up a lot of my day.

When you play a game and it spectacularly fails to tell you what to do.
I just got Dark Souls for the PC, and before I even complete the intro, I am seriously thinking of dropping the game and never playing it again because I spent TWENTY. MINUTES. hiding from a enemy through no fault of my own.
The game had utterly failed to tell me how to open my inventory to change my equipment, did it tell me the button to press? Yes. Was it on my Keyboard? Nope, gave me a button for a XBOX CONTROLLER!
Like, this is basic stuff right here they managed to screw up here, like I'm not even a game developer, but even I know that you should change around the Icons so they fit what console you are using, and if I can figure out things the developer of this game can't, I am seriously doubting the game is as amazing as it is....

I actually now limit myself.

And I actually don't have much of a choice. School's quite tough around Junior year. I'm now only allowed to borrow my 3DS from my mom. And I normally only play it 1-2 hours per day. Only after all of my main priorities like homework and chores are done.

And I'm sometimes distracted way too easily, so it's a good plan. lol (I'll still get my 3DS back eventually, but I'll also keep the time limit rule and stay out of trouble...)

The PC port is pretty terrible and requires a controller and some mods to get it working nicely.
The whole "not knowing what-to-do" is actually part of the game, it literally drops you into the thick of it and does not hold your hand.
The game is meant to be cruel, if that isn't your sort of thing then Dark Souls is not for you.

There is a difference between not having the boss strategy being handed to you, and the game not telling you basic gameplay functions!

Okay I understand Dark Souls because I love that game, I own it on Xbox.
Two things make me curious though. Firstly why is the control described for the Xbox controls? The Souls series started on Playstation 3.
Second they spent MONTHS developing the PC port, releasing with the DLC on it's release and it has Xbox controls described?
And it needs mods to work? What happened?! I never heard of this before!

I never tried Farmville but I already didn't like those kinds of games. Still, pony made me want to try it out. It started out quite fun, if only for the cute ponies and the voice acting, but it still was. I even made a tutorial for the game. The fun only lasted about a week though... :/

You know you can change them right?

Anyway removal of player agency, like when you get stunned and have to wait it out to get control back.

Cel shading is the best thing ever! I can't believe it's possible to hate! I can't stand ultra realistic graphics. It's boring and unoriginal. You can get as much as you need by looking out the window. Video games SHOULD look cartoony.

I don't know what Borderlands is, but I was thinking of Wind Waker. That's how I think Zelda should look, even though the idea is that each has its own unique art style, I think that if there was a standard theme, it would be Wind Waker's style.

The again, some may be interested. Any form of masterpiece of theme could reel in any audience. A masterpiece or classic piece doesn't belong to a single target audience. People like what they like because it interests them, has a unique style, or it's well-written enough to keep them hooked.
Two prime examples are obviously MLP and Disney Movies. Not just little kids enjoy them, teens and adults could even enjoy them if they're written well-enough. A masterpiece is popular for a reason.

Well it's true. I love Disney movies a ton! And MLP! I was just saying that you can't hate them for making a cartoony looking game, because it was directed at an audience that would like a cartoony game. If you don't like it, it probably wasn't directed for your type.

Shiny pokémon. I've always wanted one. Never got one. Unless you count the red Gyarados in Gold/Silver.

I found a shiny Golbat in Ruby.
Guess what happened?
No pokeballs.  :l


I think I have one to top that First time ever playing Emarald first encounter past the intro Shiny wurmpul your not even given the pokeballs at that stage so I could do nothing at all

The first shiny I ever got was in Ruby. I was training on wild Pokemon and a shiny Roselia appeared. I caught it and i migrated it so many times until it got to my Black. I've had it for 7 years.
Ruby->Pearl->Soul Silver->Black


One time I tried to breed a shiny Riolu. My PC now has over 300 level 1 Riolus in it.

The performance of an emulator is based on your hardware and how well developed the emulator itself is. At this point you can play PS2 or DS games flawlessly, if you have the hardware.

As for the games being "Foreign" as you call them, that's your own fault for not looking at what you're downloading. Rom sites clearly show what versions of the games they have, all it takes is some reading.

Did I seem like a jerk there? I tend to be blunt when I'm in a bad mood, if so you have my apologies.

Armored Core, Verdict day....
This game is just.................

Spoiler: Angry Rant • show
"Hey what are all these things covering my screen?" No one explains. I can't read it fast enough to understand.
"Who are these factions?" Only explained after you join them.
"This weapon isn't effective" says the game. Tell me, which gun should I use on this guy then?! Not explained.
"Create a team" says the game. Why? "You just need it" that's why. Even if you're by yourself you need to be in a stupid team.
"Hey how can I tell how much energy my AC is using?" Well I can't find that anywhere so I'll just assume this mysterious bar on the bottom right is how much energy I'm using to how much I have.
"Where's my health bar?" Not anywhere that I can see.
"What the heck is the story about?" I don't freaken know. Maybe I need to play the previous games but the game doesn't hint to me about it so I guess the story is unimportant.

THIS GAME EXPLAINS NOTHING TO NEW PLAYERS! >:O
For new players this game comes off as a load of garbage! I can defeat most enemies but the second an AC AI appears it's over. I shot up this one for about 5 minutes and my HUD kept saying "ineffective". I tried scanning it but most of the scan info is gibberish to me. It also wouldn't tell me what WOULD be effective so I just died.

What's the point of selecting your character's home base location? What's the point of having a team if you're the only member?
The camera effects in game make everything blurry and hard to make out and the combat is hardly satisfying...

I'm sorry, but my impressions on AC as a new player are terrible. Maybe there's diamonds behind that wall of confusion but I probably won't ever know.

How rare shiny pokémon are.
I'm trying the Masuda method. Basically, this is what it is:
Whatever pokémon you want a shiny of, try and get a foreign one. Then, get a Ditto. Put both in the day care. Every once in a while you can get an egg. It has an elevated chance of hatching into a shiny. I'm trying this for a shiny Pidgey!

And before anyone says anything, these are NOT just skins for stuff in the game. These weapons and shields have stats that make them unique. Only people who PREORDER this game are going to get, and also START with, a sword that deals fire damage and shields that build bleed when you strike people with them.
Thanks FromSoft. Now not only is launch week going to be hectic with internet, but you've basically just made it possible for Darkwraiths to now easily overpower everyone who has not preordered.

I bet we'll find 6 spots in the game that were specifically designed for these weapons and shields but they'll just be souls. :l

Oh yes. And when they don't cut out pointless garbage you don't need to see like them selling off stuff, backtracking and fighting the same enemies that have respawned.

I hate to see showcases for mods where it's audio based and the video has terrible audio quality or the person showcasing the audio mod is talking OVER the game's audio.

I also hate when I' watch a text based video and the text remains on screen for about 15 seconds, and this is for every bit of text on screen even if it's just one word. People, we can pause videos to read your text, the slow people won't hate your video for only displaying text for 5 seconds or less. This also means that about 5 minutes of your 10 minute video are dedicated to displaying each bit of text for 15 seconds.

Try sitting still for a whole minute and forty seconds with nothing to do but rage about being ganged up on by the entire enemy team, and watch your gold do up by two every second. Now try doing it when you are constantly targeted by the other team, and die within a minute of leaving spawn FIVE TIMES!

you know whats annoying in league of legends? WHEN A TURRET IS BEING ATTACKED YOUR TEAM IS LIKE "OH IM JUST GONNA WATCH OUR TURRET GET DESTROYED BECAUSE IM STEWPID LIKE THAT" AND YOUR THE ONLY ONE THAT ACTULY CARES TO GO TO THAT LANE AND TRY TO KILL THE ENEMY. heck even if the last turret to the inhibitor is being attacked sometimes they don't give a buck that its being attacked.

Jungler: It's not my fault bot lane fed.
ADC: I can't win with this useless support that has a better KDR than me! It's not my fault you idiots.
Top: You're right ADC! It's all the support's fault!
Mid: Noob support.
Jungler: Report support after the game
Support: Yep, blame the role who has a better KDR than all of you, spends the most money for their team, and didn't even talk trash at all during the game! Great idea! *Thumbs up*

Again, in LoL, I (Kennen mid, nothing weird) got into a ranked game with 3 feeders and a bad ADC. -_- the funny part is, I managed to carry enough so that the game wouldn't finish in 4 minutes. I finished 10-3 against a Ryze that was 17-3 and a nocturn that was 25-1. Also, those 3 trolls were spamming in the all-chat to report me for unskilled because I took a Trinity force on Kennen. I sadly dropped to B5 because of this game.

When you're chasing an enemy down with a sliver of hp left. Then right as you try to land your attacks, they suddenly gain the skills and powers of the dodge god.
I managed to land all those attacks on you and right as you're near death, the god of dodge decides to take control of your fingers and allow you to escape alive.

In this case, I'm the Sharpshooter 99% of the time. Come on man, I have this crossbow here. If it weren't raged then maybe its head would be stable enough to actually freakin hit.

(Warning:old game is old)
Was playing diablo 2 as paladin and I got to blood raven with a few other people that were slightly under level. We started to fight and since I was tanking her because I had the most hp and armour, I took all of the hits. I was almost dead and then a stupid frost arrow... Of course, everyone knows that in Diablo 2, all slows are of something like 50% or more attack speed and 90% speed. As I died, I asked for a portal so I could go back and get my stuff back. No one did and everyone died. -_- as a mater of fact, someone stole the 8k gold I had.
I think I just hate the multiplayer in general, although its one of the ways it's actually fun so it's somewhat ironic...?

Going for a solo push as an assassin in SMITE (usually Bakasura), and after getting one tower down, and their entire team fighting the rest of mine, somehow, their Loki slips away unnoticed, and does his Vanish, Aimed Strike, and Assassinate ability combo, and completely annihilates me. Sure assassins have almost no resists and very little health, but Loki is the bane of all gods, from assassin to tank.

But it is fun to do the same to others, IF you get away with it.

The moral of the story is... I GOT LOKIED!

Yeah. And Call of Duty itself.


How everybody hates any Assassin's Creed game after Assassin's Creed 2. An administrator from the Facebook page Il Salotto degli Assassini summarized it well.
Spoiler: show
BEWARE, IF YOU HAVEN'T FINISHED THE GAME DON'T WATCH THE VIDEO!

Yesterday, after 3 weeks of playing #AC4BlackFlag, I completed the main story, and those who have completed it surely know what I mean.
Avoiding any spoilers, I just want to say that I think that this chapter is the best on the plot level; it makes you excited, amused, angry and sad and it makes you think...a set of opposite emotions, a plot which often gives the shivers (in a good way, obviously).
Moreover, the setting is obviously fantastic and full of things to do, even though it had been immediately appreciated thanks to the early videos and gameplay trailers.
[glow=black,1,300]So, a chapter fantastic in everything. Many nostalgics, without even thinking, always say that "AC2 is unequalled"; surely tis is true for the setting, we can't deny it, but considering the plot, I think that AC2 had already been defeated by #AC3 (though many think of it as boring and badly done, it actually is well structured and and with an original and deep plot, essential to introduce Black Flag's themes), and then by Black Flag.
Since its announcement, Black Flag received lots of bad opinions, especially from the usual clever guys (without saying anything else) who have the gift of the clairvoyance, comments like: "Awful/what do the pirates have to do with it/the plot is ruined"; so, not only these people must know that they were terribly wrong, but they should avoid getting Black Flag, so that they can't enjoy game exciting as few others.[/glow]
That said, I invite you all to read EVERYTHING you have discovered, found, hacked, etc..., since they all are usefull information to complete the storyline, as well as to play the multiplayer, which is considered boring and useless by the usual idiots while every year it is actually full of important information.
Finally, hoping that you enjoyed it and felt about it the same as I did, I leave you with a clip which really moved me, and that I love listening over again.

Okay I can agree on that Nala. Lots of FPS games with realistic graphics tend to play it safe and just copy what's popular.
I like CoD, I think it's okay. It's just the community that bugs me a lot. I've played each game since World at War, which in my opinion is the best CoD, and they are far too similar to each other.

Also, when they buy the game with their kid next to them, it's required that the store employees tell them, "Sir, this is a rated M game and its contents may be inappropriate.

I don't even get why they need to put that element into video games. Sure, it's to keep people interested just as violence is, but it's not as emphasized and you're gonna forget about it after a while.

I would be careful how you word things there but I do agree with the language in video games now I dont mind if it has apropriate timing for it but when its over used its annoying

and to throw a few spanners in the works GTA not that good a game franchise true the open sandbox is an enjoyable experiance for the whole of five moments but over all I would still lean towards the nintendo franchise because of there much more fun, engaging and most of all enjoyable and long lasting gameplay

GTA may be a game you can play in any way you want at any time but there is a special feeling when you go through pokemon rase your team and get attached to them

But Scince this is annoying things I guess Im not a fan of the gamer steryotype where it is "This is best game " without giving some form of argument and debate as to why, True this often can lead to arguments but If there is a reason for there thoughts its better to find common ground than "This is best because I say so" but that is my inner reviewer speaking

The main reason I'm a Nintendo person is because their games are interesting and fun. And I would play PC games if it weren't for it's problem. It has this overheating problem.(And do NOT say "get a new computer". It's not that simple. I'm not made of money.) I mean, can I TELL you how much I wanna play Minecraft? A LOT.

GTA is more than a sandbox game if you play the singleplayer mode's many story missions.

I'm annoyed by people who post lets plays and seem to completely ignore their on screen statuses. Like Health, or ammo. I hate that. It's probably because I find it impossible to not observe my entire GUI at all times.

True but most who jump into GTA arnt normaly in it for the story or at least the entirety then again that steriotype has inproved as of recent so I can be wrong as for the Gui thing, yes that can be annoying expecaly depending on who the lets player is because somtimes there doing it on purpose to look less into the game as they should to keep up an apearance

However I have run lets play type things before and for some defence it is very often hard to be entertaining and think what your doing and compleatly miss the obvious my point in case actuly leads on to a next point where I compleatly walked passed baby pig zombies in minecraft only later to comment on them.

But anyway my next point as to cracked minecraft I would say support the offical releace if you want to tiral the game mojang still support the free vertion if I remember correctly however if im correct and correct me if im wrong Pikmin Its a computer limmitation rather than a want for the game correct, best guess its ether a processor issue or a video driver as there the most common causes of game issues

Best? I'm all for personal preferences, but isn't that a bit blunt to claim one game series as the best? I would understand if it was in that specific genre...whatever it is now...

Besides. The best is the longest best seller in 5-7 years (in my opinion) and have generally positive reviews in that moment of time but not the point here.

It's not that the computer is unable to handle it, but that the graphics card overheats. My mom even checked on the internet, it's not a problem with the model either.


And as for that piece of advice Joylight, I do think that would work, the problem is getting one. I can't exactly just go to the store, and even if I could, I wouldn't know where to go. And I don't order stuff online often either. I appreciate the advise, but it's a problem I don't feel like fixing, mainly because it's not even my computer, it's my mom's.

I see an overheating issue well I wont atempt to say a technical fix becuase most Pc or laptop issues awnsered over the internet are often wrong based on hardware issues, mostly because its near inpossible to diagnose correctly without seeing the fault at hand, though I do wish you the best of luck in eventualy soving said issue, if and when you decide to take a look into it, but regardless enough of my technobabble got a bit lost in my own work there annoying things in video games right let me see


well I do supose that the idea that in most games you can only start looking cool at the highest level that or when you reach said level it leaves nothing rewarding to continue with

Just because the sword's range doesn't compare to the other weapons' ranges it doesn't mean the sword isn't powerful. If you ask me, I'll take a sword over a gun any day. :I

You can use bulletproof vests and helmets and survive quite a lot, now... if a machete hacks directly onto your head I doubt you will make it out alive, you have stabproof vests but it makes more sense to use a bulletproof rather than a stabproof.

In Skyward Sword...



Many things.

First and most, the stamina gauge.

Running from enemies, low on health, and then the stamina gauge depletes, and you can bareley walk. Enemies catch up to you... bye, Link!

Second, the motion controls.

Very annoying. You swing the Wii Remote the direction you wanna attack. This can make battling very annoying, in lots of ways.

Third, the fact that it uses a Wii Remote and Nunchuck.

Rechargeable batteries and 20 battery packs can help you out in that department. -And isn't the point of buying the Wii is to make you want to move around? Although I can agree that some features on the Wii is a bit annoying.

Skyward Sword is the reason why my left arm is stronger than my right (even if it's my dominate arm). Could at least give a balance between the two.

At least in Brawl they give you an option to play on your Gamecube controller. In the WiiU? I think not.  :'( Although, there are some creative folk out there making attachments to the Wiimote to accomidate to the Gamecube controller. -but isn't Pro controllers an UPGRADE from the GC Controller?

...No, I still like my GC Controller. Speaking of, why can't that be carried on to the WiiU? I know I loved it and some could agree with me.

People who do that annoy me too, for a little while.  The thing is, as most games I play go there are basically 2 tiers, Competition Tier and Public Tier.  Most people(at least with UrT) in the comp tier don't do this, and when I face this on the public servers, there is a 95% chance they they aren't better than me, so I can make them eat their own words, something I LOVE doing.  Nothing is more satisfying than going from a "noob" to a "hacker" in 5 minutes  X3

Skyrim. DD:

Cheap AI. Obviously in fighting games but they're worse in Skyrim where you fight about 20 weak guys that die in 1 hit and then you meet that guy at the end who takes 35 hits to die and can kill you in 1-3 strikes from whatever weapon he's using, regardless if you're blocking or not.

-Coupling with Ramisha's post-

People who hate players that are new to game.
Blah blah blah, they were newbs once too, can't and didn't know everything, BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-
But seriously, unless there's an implemented training mode in the game, it's totally unfair to hate somebody for sucking at the game when they're new.

I think League of Legends does this right but forcing the new players to play with other new players. You don't need to worry about a level 30 owning your whole team just because they don't know how to counter Lux or how to ward or the benefits to jungling. (the only time this would happen is if a Level 30 invited the lower level to a group game)

New players saying "You are Lv 30! Be a Lv 30!" I mean... cmmon... I am Lv 30 not a platinum ranker...


Well..... to counter Teals argument...

If you are new practice... ironically there are bots, Easy and intermediate, while easy can be defeated with the most ridiculous strategy and champions, Intermediate are pretty much more difficult, even to the point of loosing against them.

My point, if you are new, practice and be open to critic, since if you are new, theres a lot of posibilities of being flamed for being new.
And please! you can invite some low-levels so the matchmaking sets you up with more low-leveled people.

Still that doesnt assures that you wont be up against a Gold ranker multi-acc user... Just saying

Post by: Teal Turken on 2013 Dec 19, 13:38:17
Spoiler: Response to Punysi • show
Yes that is true, you can play against bots either by yourself or with random people or friends.

The main problem is you can only learn so much about the game by easily stomping down on bots no smarter than a tree and getting your face hit with a tree by the bots. At some point, you'll have to play real games and learn how people play champions so you can learn to counter them.

You're talking about League of Legends in specific where as I was talking about all games in general.

PlanetSide 2 immediately drops you into a huge battle with no tutorial the second your faction's intro ends.
Sonic Lost World's tutorial is awful on Wii U, forcing you to look at the gamepad and tap an icon, which may lead to you running into a baddie, a trap or right off the ledge of the stage. (You can switch the view to the gamepad, but you got it on Wii U to use it on the TV. >:/)


Games with very long, drawn out beginnings or that force you to play the tutorial each time you start a new game.
Dark Souls, Borderlands 1 and 2, Skyrim and Oblivion (Oblivion is good though since you can save at the exit and then recreate them infinitely).
Actually this is mostly a trope related to RPGs, especially open world RPGs.

To add to that, aren't they suppose to be murdering the enemies instead of typing?

It's better than having to heal the ones who only insult and bash you for doing your job or sacrificing yourself for them.

Reminds me of macros and modifications to World of Warcraft.  They actually have interface modifications that whisper players if either they are healing/resurrecting or one that whispers back "thanks" if I heal them.

I actually must object, as I am one of those people who DO thank people for actually caring about their teammates...I actually hate people who run around with medkits and DON'T med their teammates.

I also have a radio bind so I just have to hit "P" to say thanks.

So yesterday was the first time in awhile I got back into playing tf2. Needless to say, I ended up playing late into the night. I remember specifically on a 2fort server I was in, I was Pyroing it up to support my fellow engineers in the base. At one point in time, I remember seeing a spy trying to fight off my engineer in a tight hallway. I ended up coming from behind him and burned him, which resulted in him screaming at me and cussing me out over the mic for a good minute or two. It wasn't exactly annoying, though, as I thought it was kind of funny.

What does kind of annoy me though is 'peaceful' players doing whatever it is they are doing in the middle of a firefight. When I have people shooting at me from every angle, I'm not going to check and make sure the person I'm about to burn isnt a heavy pointlessly running around with a sandvich because he said not to. As a pyro I'm supposed to burn everything around me!

Having to find unofficial master servers for a game I play because the game developers for this game made a gigantic mistake, broke their new game(Tried it last night, they broke their hit detection by using models that from what I was told is incompatible with the hit meshes they were using and either they just didnt fix it, or they did and it still sucks) because I couldn't hit anything....seriously, I haven't had a negative ratio on this game since 2010 when I first started playing it.

Now yes, if it was say...an open beta test I can see that....but to take this abomination and give it to the public saying it's DONE....this is why I hate devs releasing their game before it's done, with the exception of alpha/beta testing.

Any game where you either wait a really long time to get anything or give an unfair amount of real world money in order to unlock the part game you want. (Like Star Trek: Trexels for example)

What annoys me in terms of video games:
- People that complain about a game they never played or looked at (like it's the case with Elder Scrolls Online atm)
- Free to play games that infact aren't free to play (i rather like to pay a subscription and can reach all the content i want)
- That games are getting way to easy ( to let everyone be able to play it, but everyone would be able to play it if they played a
  played harder games in the first place to get used to it)
- flamer ( League of Legends)
- trolls (well they can be funny sometimes but they are getting annoying)

Here's a really annoying one, APB's auto-ready function.......When i'm ready for a mission i'll ready up, nothing more annoying than being in the middle of something then being dragged into a mission...

I love League of Legends, I really do.
I just don't like playing with teammates that aren't my friends too much.

The issue isn't that they're annoying or that I think they're all jerks. I meet a lot of good people and a lot of bad people equally.
It's actually that I don't trust other people to their roles except jungle.

~I don't like to NOT play mid because often times my team's mid laner will feed the enemy mid laner and the game ends in a 20-25 min surrender because their mid can blow up anybody easy.
~I don't like to NOT play Support because almost all the time our support will not ward the lane bushes. Warding the lane bushes lets the ADC attack people in the bushes, as well as see if someone like Blitzcrank is hiding for a pull. Also some supports don't try to zone out the enemy ADC and support by repeated poking, instead just hiding behind the ADC and healing or shielding them when they take damage (That's NOT supporting, supports!).
~I don't like to NOT play ADC because fairly often they'll attack the enemy support more than the enemy ADC, which just doesn't work unless their support is about dead. Also they tend to keep trying for kills after having been killed by the enemy ADC a few times, giving them a huge advantage in damage over us.

Beeing playing DoTA 2 recently, only to find that his community is FAR worse than LoL.

To sum it up... If its not a "Random picker" which always randoms picks and says "I love random picks" OR you want to actually get a team that you can understand, picking the "English" servers only to find out that in a 10 people match are like... what? 6-8 Germans... Men... it just sucks...

When you're fighting a raid boss and from the options of who to kill:
*DPS Archer
*DPS Mage
*DPS Melee
*Tank Melee
*Healer that's 20ft away behind the party and does no damage <---Me

Guess which one she targets first.

@Chromastone I know what that's like, only it's not a boss.
It's the StarFox Adventures Strength Trial. DD:
Basically you need to mash the A button as fast as you can to win. The only problem...the enemy AI was ported right out of Mario Party on N64, having an unfair amount of stamina and pressing the button much faster than you. (Wasn't really ported out of Mario Party)

I completed the game when I was 7 and again when I was 12. However in both cases I had to get my Dad to do the strength trials for me.
The shame... D:

Scribblenauts Unmasked cut-scene problem.
This is the first Scribblenauts game with genuine cutscene, and it shows. The game loads fantastically fast for a game with such content as it, I mean like I can click on the play button on the steam page and be playing within the minute, little loading, little company logos nada. and it can let you summon A LOT of things before slow down even occurs, like I've summoned over a hundred green lanterns (achievement for summoning all of them, didn't get it) and slow down only started way past the halfway point, and the slow down was only fairly mild at worst.
The problem is that during the cutscenes, the games will freeze seemingly at random, meaning you have to reset up to the last checkpoint/restart the entire mission, and for notable parts of the missions, the talking isn't done in the usual click next to continue thing they do, the characters communicate via speech bubble, and it' moves at a horribly slow pace, like they've made it so the slowest readers will have plenty of time to read it all, so it's really annoying when you have to restart the entire mission and watch the characters say the same thing before doing the (almost) same thing you've done before.


Also TESO payment method.
More specifically I can understand why someone would have a Pay to Play method, I know that unless you're games name is World of Warcraft _______, I think you're doomed to fail and go F2P within the year (Star Wars TOR lasted that long, and TOR had a lot more going for it then TESO did), but I can understand at least a reason for it, heck I can maybe even understand being both B2P AND P2P at the same time, sure it's scam like, but if you give out very good gameplay and make all content available without any further payment I can at least understand if it's a very good game.

But then TESO had to go and completely destroy said rational for using a P2P method.

Confused as to what I mean? Allow me to give you two links to what I mean.

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/01/29/the-elder-scrolls-online-imperial-edition-pre-order-bonuses-announced/
Items for the game, that mind you, costs as much as a triple A game on release day just to purchase, combined with yet another $15 per month that I play the game, has more content, that if I do not spend even further cash on, I will not be able to get via regular time and effort.
So yea, TESO can't decide on a payment method, so rather then choose, it just went with all of them at the same time at once!

Killed Alduin and hundreds of other dragons, absorbing their very souls and mastering the forgotten Thu'um. Made an amazing discovery for the College of Winterhold and became the new archmage after saving it from certain destruction. Single-handedly restored the failing thieves guild and made it more successful than ever before, becoming the guild master. Destroyed a dark, murderous cult of highly-trained and feared assassins in one fell swoop. War-hero of the Imperial Legion who all but single-handedly killed Ulfric Stormcloak and nipped the Stormcloak rebellion in the bud. Culled a serious vampire uprising. Bested the original dragonborn. Thane of every hold in the country. Champion of every daedric prince.

Oh what, I'm supposed to be impressed by these two thugs? Seriously, I don't get why they get treated in game as if they have some real power over the main characters? So what if they literally run a town/space station and all the criminals that work in it's extensive system? It's not like I, as Commander Shepard/The Dragon Born haven't fought through literally worse then this on a almost weekly basis, and in the Dragon Borns case, am higher up in said underworld then Marven is, and the worst I can do is kill a horse, one that Marven can easily replace?

Maven doesn't run Riften, that's Laila's job. Maven is just part of an influential family with a lot of connections. I suppose if you really want her dead you could use the command console.

As for Aria, it's been proven that she's not on Shepard's level. When Oleg Petrovsky took over Omega, Aria wouldn't have had a chance in hell to take it back without Shepard's help.

Marven doesn't run Riften in the same way boss Tweed didn't run New York. And not to mention that if you side with eh Imperials, Marven becomes the new Jarl. And the console Commands mean nothing, I could use them to kill Alduin in the opening but that won't save Helgen.

But the fact still remains,ME2, Shepard is some forced to treat Lara with respect when we first run into her on Omega, despite the fact she's little different then other Warlord Shepard has already taken down, they really should have added in a Renegade option to insult her a few times in ME2, but nope, gotta wait until she needs your help directly before you can even say anything close to a insult to her.

I don't like the renegade options in Mass Effect. I think they put them in for giggles and nothing else.
I very much doubt Shepard reached the rank of Commander by punching every reporter he came across.
He also has nothing to gain from insulting the head of some rinky dink space station. The man's come back from the dead, I doubt he has anything left to prove.

And it's not about respect, it's about taking out a uppity criminal like I've done so a hundred times. I fight through hundreds of Blue Suns and Eclipse mooks because they're scum, why can't I do the same with this Asari punk and her mooks?

No. I don't think they were put in as a joke, but more than half of his renegade lines made me chuckle. The only scene that made me think "Wow, that was awesome" was when he pushed a mercenary out of a window.

As for taking out a uppity criminal? Shepard is not a cop. He's been focused on doing one thing since the first game. Stopping the Reapers. He's also worked with criminals before. Kasumi, Zaeed, a terrorist organization known as Cerberus.

Shepard does a whole-heck-of-a-lot stuff in his side missions that aren't even related to the Reapers in the slightest.
Kasumi and Zaeed provide a huge benefit to me via being a high skilled spec-op level troop that are willing to work under me, and Shepard didn't team up with Cerberus, Cerberus teamed up with Shepard, you can totally play the game and constantly distance yourself from Cerberus and one of the first dialogue choices is to say "I'm not going to work for you!" to TIM himself, not to mention in the next game Cerberus kinda becomes the enemy that you take down, Aria?

Does Bethesda think we only care about using houses to throw everything into a chest? If all I wanted was the STORE my items then a single chest, barrel, cloth sack, or even an 8-inch-wide strongbox has unlimited interior space and can hold every darned item in the game. No, I want to DECORATE my house, for Christ's sake! I want my shelves and mantles display my unique trophies and items! Not be full of bloody pots and pans!

Lol, that glitch has been in the game since launch and it's still not fixed? That's so Bethesda.

There's a glitch with dropping items from your inventory. If leave the cell then the item will return to where you dropped it. If you want to place things on a shelf you have to drop everything on the floor. Leave, come back in and THEN move it where you want. After that it will stay put.

Spoiler: show
Everything about Terraria. (Starbound is better anyway :V)

When I miss an item or event in Harvest Moon because I wasn't somewhere at the exact time on the exact day as an NPC

When I'm playing a game where there's water levels where you can drown. (I hate hydrocity, I hate it so much.)

When a game doesn't have enough check points so I don't have to keep doing the same things over and over again D;

When a game doesn't have online multiplayer but it has local. (Not everyone lives near their friends >:L)

When a game has a puzzle so convoluted that I need a guide. (Hello Myst, I hate you.)

When a game doesn't have a dedicated save function in the menu especially if it's a handheld.

When a game has permadeath. I'd like my hard work to not be taken away from me because of one mistake, life is stressful enough.

When a game's only difficulty settings are "hard" and "harder", or when there is no setting for easy at all.

When I have to grind for 4 hours just to progress the story. (Oh hi Dark Cloud 2, we need to have a talk about this relationship.)

When pretty much all of the characters have better powers than the one you're forced to play as. (Pretty much every Sonic game except the ones that he isn't in, especially the modern ones.)

When a game forces me to do a tutorial and won't even give me all of my abilities until I do the ones it wants me to first. (Tiny & Big comes to mind.)

When a game drops me into it without any kind of direction at all. (Minecraft, the original Zelda)

When a game's main advertised feature is being ruthlessly hard. That's pretentious and the kinds of communities it builds are too full of people with a superiority complex for my tastes.

When I'm playing pokemon and trying to evolve a pokemon that needs a certain time of day but I get the opposite one because for some reason even if it's still pitch black out in my area, I get Espeon just because it's past 6AM. I don't know what the deal is with pokemon logic but it's not that bright out at 6AM here at any time of the year.

Pretty much every S-class track on ASRT. I don't recommend getting in a skype call with me if I'm playing those unless you want to hear a very angry gamer reinvent the English language's interpretation of swear words.

When metroidvania games don't have a map screen.

When the gaming industry killed collect-a-thon 3D platformers and made them more like 2D platformers with a lot of linearity to appeal to a wider audience because nobody thinks they can like a game like spyro anymore...  DD:

When OoT3D ruined the ocarina for me. I used to be able to play it like a real instrument, now Nintendo messed up the button mapping and I'm super mad about it.  >:O

When a game has dragons as the antagonist. I like dragons, why do I always have to kill them?

When an online game that is clearly focused on PVP doesn't have the option for private, non-dedicated servers. (Rust.)

When a game has a swear filter that is so ridiculous that you can't say a word like "spice" without it censoring the first 4 letters. (Sorry if that offended someone.)

When a game has a species specific to a certain gender or if you can only have certain appearances with a certain gender. (In an old dead MMO called Earth Eternal the female fox characters were darker of fur than the males and didn't have very pointy ears so I couldn't be pure white but the guys could.)

When a game is in alpha for 3 years and never progresses.

When a game leaves beta but is still broken. (Minecraft.)

When a game updates every single day with barely any changes and certainly nothing noticeable to the layman.

When a game takes up so many resources that my rig can't run it. (When MY rig can't run a game, there's a problem.)

When a Wii game can be played fine with a classic controller but doesn't offer that option.

When a game has bosses that it doesn't need to have. Not every game needs bosses, they're the least enjoyable part of games to me anyway.

When a game puts a high emphasis on scores and leaderboards to the point where it gets naggy about connecting to the internet or builds gameplay around it.

And probably my biggest thing: When a game has time limits everywhere. I'm ok with it in katamari now but it's seriously annoying, just let me play at my own pace.

I wonder how many people remember fairies weren't always the flitty fruity things in cartoons but were originally pretty evil and frightening.

There were old fold tales about fairies manipulating people to dance with them until their hearts exploded and luring people into forests where they would eventually starve - fairies also used to be more than winged tiny people (pixies) but the term used to apply to any magic affiliate such as trents, dryads, centaurs, or even spirits, so in that way fairy types could share a lot in common with ghost types.

Also I think it's hilarious that I can poke a dragon type with azumaril and do massive damage. I've always wanted a light type anyway and this is as close as you can get.

When a perfectly free to play game becomes P2W since they cant keep up with the taxes and permissions. Men, when that happens, its just even more painfull than the game becoming P2W itself.

In DW4, you fight Lu Bu in the second chapter. I hated Hu Lou gate so much just because of him and the imperial seal (campaign) stage where I have to walk around the entire map several times, checking every milk and cranny until I destroy all 100 wooden crates within the time limit.

Sadly, I'm pretty new to the seiries. I only own DW 6 and Strikeforce (which is AWESOME). I had 6 for months but never played it until a few days ago, and Strikeforce was for my PSP, and that's most likely on its last legs (not to mention its a download version, so my data's probably wreaked.) At least its teaching me about historical warriors (and being a kick butt game while doing it.)

Something really annoying for me is low inventory slots in an RPG game,I hate going on and on and before you realize it you are so full of weapons, armors, pots, items, and even some undropable quest items.

For example the elder scrolls in Skyrim
(http://blogs.capecodonline.com/cape-cod-gaming/files/2012/07/dawnguard6.jpg)
You cannot drop them, or store them in a chest, and each one weights 20 in your bag, not even a sword is that heavy in the game, and you will have 3 of these things by the end of the game  >:O

Or when the last death bugs out with the last auto save and you have to restart the game all over again,(ya it has happened to me, and i nearly smashed my disc on the floor >:/)

Anything and everything to do with Origin. You'd think by now EA would know that gamers hate their crappy steam knock-off and that they should publish their games through steam. I'm sick of being forced to use Origin for certain franchises.

Have fun being the most hated game publisher in the world, EA. Get off your high horse and sell through steam and maybe I'll buy FIFA 15.

Especially if it's the other team having a totally unfair glitch exploit used against your team.

Okay, here's another thread that tempts my cynical side yet again. Okay, let's see. The most annoying things in video games are...

#1. Those Darn Creepers! You just built something really nice. Out of rare materials. Then you turn around to see what the uninitiated might think of as a sad-faced, cuboid green giraffe. But to anypony who plays Minecraft, you know that all your hard work is about to get blown to bits. Sssss... BOOM!  >:O No enemy in Minecraft is more annoying to me. Not Blazes, not Wither Skeletons, and not Endermen. Creepers.

#2. When lag makes you lose. You have the skill. You have the power. You have the levels. You have all the right armor and potions and weapons. And you lose because the game freezes up for about five seconds, and when it comes back your enemy has whaled on you a bunch of times which you could have easily avoided... if not for that dumb lag. (This also includes when you're in game, and you die or have to restart because of a stupid glitch. DD: )

#3. Cheap movie games. Just because you liked a movie doesn't mean that the game is going to be good. In fact, they're usually lousy cookie-cutters. Attack enemies, collect money to unlock unwanted commentaries, use special attacks, break other people's crates and furniture to find more money in hopes that you can unlock something mildly interesting, and go through missions which really feel more like a long hallway than an environment.
Of course, this isn't true of all movie games. The Spider-man games are usually awesome even by normal game standards, and there are a few other gems. But when I played the video game of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, I was almost laughing at how far they strayed from the movie. And this is a story I have cherished since childhood. Lucy beating up creatures and riding them? Random coins lying about? Urgh. :s

I equip all my Fire resistant armor, get out my best gear, just to find out it can also poison you!
I equip no antidotes and end up fainting in the first 5 minutes...

So when I do get my antidotes he poisons me as I'm drinking it so I end up wasting a precious antidote, and getting smacked into a wall, and still being poisoned...

If you'd played Sims 3 you'd know. It's typically considered in poor taste for a game developer to recycle the same old content and sell it as a sequal. Well, EA/Maxis didn't even go that far. The Sims 4 not only offers nothing new, it has less depth and content that the Sims 3! I mean seriously, no open world? No customization? No toddlers?

Despite their bragging about the so-called improved AI, sims personalities are far more shallow than they were in the Sims 3. You can only choose a maximum of 3 personality traits instead of 5, and there's a much more limited number of traits to choose from.

And there are only 8 careers? EIGHT? Why is there no military? No law enforcement? No medical? No business? Were they just too lazy to write those careers?

I won't bore you with more of the reasons the game sucks, but as someone who bought the Sims 3 the day it was released I can tell you that the Sims 4 is a downgrade in just about every conceivable way. Why did they take out all the things that made the Sims 3 good?

The Sims 4 is just a cheap cash-in and is NOT worth the 60 bucks they are charging for it. In fact it's so bad it wouldn't even be worth downloading even if it was free. If you already have the Sims 3 (Just the base game with no expansions) I cannot think of any reason you'd want to play the Sims 4 instead.

for super metroid the each of the bosses have a specific pattern of which they attack, for Kraid shoot the flying claws for health, shoot his eyes to reveal his weak point then shoot it with a missile, repeat until he falls

for Phantoon shoot the ghost flames for health and ammo, depending on whether you use super missiles or not the battle could be shorter but more dangerous, or longer but safer, if you hit him with super missiles be prepared to dodge his next attack, use missiles to hit him when he becomes solid (his eye will open), repeat until he falls, to dodge his attack after hitting him with a super missile, change to morph ball and start at the left of the screen, alternate sides after each wave of ghost flames until it stops

for Draygon, for an easy win, shoot the turrets in the room before he appears, then let him grab you, use your grapple beam to latch onto a destroyed turret, he'll fall well before you do, for the more difficult battle target his belly with super missiles and try to avoid his attacks

for Ridley, dodging his attacks and using super missiles are the best way to handle him

for Mother Brain, the battle consists of two parts, part one you are to destroy the supposed life support system, avoid the defense system's attacks and use your super missiles, the glass surrounding mother brain's head shatters, deal damage to her head until the machines fall away revealing her body, part two starts here, the blue orbs do little damage, the blast from the arms cost you a whole energy tank if you are hit, try to avoid this. the bombs deal direct contact and explosive damage, this battle is scripted, just use up your missiles and super missiles to deal damage the quickest, mother brain will use the hyper beam which deals massive damage, drains your ammo, and is not avoidable, you can keep fighting after the first hit, but the second hit the story line takes place the large metroid attacks mother brain, draining it's life force and restoring your health, mother brain reawakens and weakens the metroid, the metroid tries to finish off mother brain, but fails, fragments of the defeated metroid fall on you, you gain the hyper beam, just dodge the blue orbs and mother brain will fall quickly, i won't spoil the ending, if you manage to defeat mother brain you'll get to see the ending

Like I said before, I already managed to beat Super Metroid. The boss battles weren't that hard, but finding out where to go and what to do was my problem because the maps are so huge and complex.
Mega Man X and Super Mario World give me headaches because of how many times I die before I can reach the end of a stage.

as far as getting through the stages for MMX just keep your buster charged and blast each enemy as they appear, that will ensure you don't take damage, if any, when you get energy tanks, the best way to fill them is to find a spawn point for weak enemies and collect the energy cells, also good for farming extra lives, this also works for the final boss fight too i think, reading each boss' patterns will help too, aside from that there really isn't much to beating the bosses besides hitting them with their weaknesses

I know to keep the buster charged and shoot as enemies show up, but it doesn't keep me from taking damage, especially if I keep missing. I'm just no good at platform gaming anyway because I either miss the jump or get hit in midair and fall into a pit of death/spikes. And I haven't even found any energy tanks. I'm not using walkthroughs for these games, just so you know.

Being forced to be evil or sacrifice countless goodies and treasures. Seems in RPGs evil is rewarded at every turn. Being evil will net you some of the most awesome gear and trophies available. Being good gets you...what? A warm fuzzy feeling?

Yes, I'm looking at you Skyrim.  >:/ Why does the most evil guild, the dark brotherhood, have to have dozens of the best rewards in the game? Feels like I'm selling myself short by doing the noble thing and wiping them out. Heck, some quests cannot be completed at all without committing some unspeakable crime against nature. And for completionists like me, walking away and leaving a quest unfinished is just not an option since it will bug me to death. In the ended up:

Spoiler: show
Siding with the cannibals just so I could sacrifice Eola to Boethiah, since she's the only blatantly evil follower in the game. I didn't lose a single wink of sleep for killing Eola, but eating that innocent priest was a big blow to my conscience. For roleplay I used the excuse that my character was being controlled by Namira and couldn't resist her influence.

Oh Lordy, I hate it when games make you believe being evil is better than being good. Not talking about games where the only way to keep yourself entertained is by being bad (GTA), although that ticks me off too.

This, this right here. A lot of games today are going that whole reward wrong actions route more so than older games have done. It used to be in oblivion just exploring old caves and ruins netted you awesome gear if you survive the horde of evil monsters. You could then use that gear to take on the oblivion gates I  remember getting glass gear from ancient ruins when I first played the game. I was actually really happy just because I liked the way the glass armor looked. Though it was still better than my old gear. Megaman Legends was really great in that you could get all of the cool gear simply by staying good until the whole shining laser issue in Megaman Legends 2 which required you to turn evil to get a glass eye from a shady salesmen, if my memory serves me correctly. I could be mistaken though it's been a few years. Man now I wanna play oblivion again...

In Battlefield 4. I usually NEVER rage quit, and I hardly rage. I can tell when I am facing a tough team. I take my defeat (even though I hate it, cause I constantly lose) and I try again next time. I always show good sportsmanship.

The thing I hate when it comes to getting defeated, is being on a team that gets in your way, burns your position, bails out on you, closes the door in front of you, quits early, just stay there, and doesn't provide cover behind you (especially when you have 5 people, ALL looking in front and no one looking behind). This was that rare moment I actually rage quit. I was very stressed out of my mind. I feel much better now, and I hope to not run into more than one of these problems ever again.

Well, I suck. The only game I actually had the patience AND had to put effort into to beat was Sonic Advance 3, the only Sonic game I could get more than 2 Chaos Emeralds in Special Stages, let alone all 7. Took me 10 years to beat that one. Granted, I put it down for a LONG time, but still, 10 years.

I think you haven't found the game type your are good at, every person is good at different things. Even video games, perhaps trying some games that you don't play often, you might find the type that you are really good at.

Mine is Armored Core games, the very first time playing an armored core game, it was like I was a natural at the game, sure i had some flaws, but over time my skills have improved to the point where i am unbeatable, I have even taken on 5 ACs at one time and came out of the battle without a scratch on my AC. A fantastic achievement which clenched the idea of me being either one of the best, or "the" best armored core pilot.

I mean, I like video games a lot and I've played quite a few in my time. Though I don't think I have any games that are particularly BAD 'cause I always wait 'till someone says somethin' good about it (except for Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic Unleashed. Those two made me flip a lid).
It may have somethin' to do with not having any of the older gaming consoles for the longest time. I very recently got a Super Nintendo and some games, but the only one I've managed to beat so far was Super Metroid, and it took me over 11 hours cumulatively over the course of a month. That was WITH walkthroughs. I couldn't imagine playing that game back then without a walkthrough. I got stuck so many times... I didn't even die that often, comparatively.
Mega Man X, on the other hand, is INCREDIBLY difficult for me. I've only beaten 4 bosses right now and I can hardly get through any level without dying/enough health to face another boss, and I don't have enough time to memorize their attack patterns in order to avoid them and NOT have them wreck me.
I haven't even gotten past the 1st world in Super Mario World. Admittedly, I haven't been playing it that often.
Whenever I go to my best friend's house, I dread the moment he picks a Mario Kart game to play with me. I love the guy to death, but I'm not having fun if I'm not even a challenge to him. Even his little brother, who is 8 years younger than him, is just as good at those games as he is.

here is a suggestion, try Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War, the game is relatively simple to play all you have to do is figure at how to dodge missiles, avoid SAMs and flak, of course you encounter an occasional laser fired at you, but the game makes it too easy to dodge them

Flying planes in games is kinda difficult for me. The only game I could manage to fly things successfully are in Star Wars Battlefront 2, and even then, those spaceships are pretty awkward for me.

I read somewhere that he breaks up with you if you are an elf. Guess what race I am. But that's ok, I'm not planning on having a romance with anyone, it's kind of... weird because I designed the character after myself.
And it's hard to make him my friend because he's already on -5 of the like scale whatever thing  >:O it seems that if you don't say "yes I completely utterly agree with you you are the best I could not have said it better myself" he disapproves.

Umm, the games are not related really - each one has its own story so you can play whichever you like. Each one is set in a different (but similar) universe and I'm sure you won't miss anything except for a few easter eggs.

for me one of the most annoying enemies in xcom are the cryssalid, if they "beat" one of your crew members, they get zombified, and if you are not able to beat that zombie in the next 3 turns they turn into a new chrysalid, really??, like if you don't have enough problems dealing with the original ones you have to take care of more??, in the early games when the first chrysalid appear if they "take down" anyone of your crew and make him a zombie, you pretty much lost that match, and that gets really annoying pretty fast.

The Site Recon mission is literally a plant the bomb in the center of the cryssalid nest and get out. After breaking into the ship where the hive is located, you have 8 turns to get into the evacuation zone or everyone dies. Not only does the time limit and endless spawning from the hive nest stress you out to no end, you also have that one soldier trapped on the second floor being overran with cryssalids and they're also spawning from every side each turn.

^There's a mission where it's an absolute cryssalid nightmare.

I detest when the game blindsides you.

THAT is the most infuriating thing ever in videogames to me.

At least the Toxic guys of Blighttown never respawn after you slay them. They are still awful, though.

Now, the hazards of games like IWBTG... Those are the worst. But the game is designed to be like that, so I can't put the game at fault for being that bad, it actually deserves a commendation for its awfulness.

Well, Toxic is a status ailment in Dark Souls, too. Turns out it can be afflicted from people you don't see very well in an area badly lit in a zone with poor FPS optimization. At range!

And the other one... I am tempted to not answer that to spare the wave of anger, fury and frustration, but it's the duty of the elders to share wisdom with the younger generation! It's a game called I Wanna Be The Guy. Do with this information what you will! I am not responsible for what happens to your sanity.

6 annoying legendary pokemon encounter/ battler scenarios

1) You forget to save before the legendary battle.
2) You try to weaken it, one of 2 things happen: 1) critical hit, KO 2) that  "little"  extra damage defeats it
3) The pokemon either uses roar, teleport, or just flees
4) Your entire party faints
5) The pokemon uses struggle and faints from recoil damage.
6) (Probably the worst) Forgot to stock up on pokeballs

It could be worse. Pokemon sapphire first start of the game right after you receve your first pokemon and quest to the first town

First Wild encounter a shiny wurmple.

Can't catch it you don't get pokeballs at that stage of the game so I have to sit there and fight it. Its painful fighting your first offical shiny when you cant capture it

It SHOULD be free by now, but unfortunately it's not. 14.95USD per month.

Blizzard has been facing a lot of backlash in recent years for opening up a cash shop for ingame items. That's a big no-no with subscription based games. If we pay a subscription then there should be no ingame paywalls. That's the whole point of it. But Blizzard won't remove the subscription simply because they know that their fanbase is so big and dedicated they can get away with it. If it were any other MMORPG it would be dead by now.

Guild Wars 2 is subcription-free and it's a great game. All their revenue comes from microtransations on cosmetic/convenience items (no pay-to-win). I think all MMORPGs should follow their business model. It makes money and it's popular with consumers. Win-win.

I swear he said it was free... well, if he can afford it then good for him.. also that is ridicolous - as if they didn't have enough money yet. In my opinion the best items should be available to every dedicated player, not some 12 year old jerk whose dad is a tycoon...

Ok so just recently here are 2 things that come to mind that really annoy me in video games and it has to do with the players themselves ...

1. People backing out: when I play Cod bo2 or Destiny I see a lot of people back out of the lobby when we are about to start the game leaving most of us other player really mad I mean why play with us when your going to back out during the match/game..?

2. Under age Gamers: as most of you know im an adult and the last thing I need when im playing a M Rated game is some child coming on to the game that im playing and either annoy the heck out of me or doesn't get the grasp of the game or use profanity like a really want a 8 year old to be swearing at me (really happened) man parents these days do not give a care in the world what there children play just to get them outa there hair these consoles use to be fun now there just electronic babysitters.

A friend of mine had to show me what a shiny was. I have the feeling many people who play Pokemon don't know what a shiny is. Still, I've never encountered one in the wild that wasn't given to me. Heck, I didn't even know what Pokerus was untill several months after getting it on Emerald. Apparently it's about 3 times rarer than shinies. Most people will NEVER encounter it.

Pokerus is a 'virus' that a pokemon has with them. Pokerus helps level up stats faster, and when you catch trade, or battle pokemon with Pokerus, all of the pokemon your party will have it. Pokerus is permanent, and can be given to any pokemon you add or change to your party with pokerus. I heard it is more rare than shinys.

Pokerus is permanent, and can be given to any pokemon you add or change to your party with pokerus. I heard it is more rare than shinys.
if it is that great it makes me wonder how i only heard of it "Now"?

Because most people never get it. EVER. It is much more rare than shinies.
Though I heard that Pokerus is NOT permanent unless you keep the Pokemon that have it in the PC, that it only lasts a few days or so. Mine is permanent because the in-game battery in Emerald is dead, so timed events can't happen. That also means I can't grow berries, but I hardly plant them anyway.

Well actually, the effects of Pokerus are permanent. It just stops spreading after a couple days.

Ah. I wasn't aware of this. I should still be able to permanently spread it because of the dead in-game battery, right? Or was I totally wrong about that, too?

If your Pokemon has the Pokerus condition, and not the little pink face meaning it's recovered. Yea, you can infect away, you just need to have the pokemon you want to infect in your party with the pokerus Pokemon.

Nintendo - Good games, bad consoles. I hate the idea of having to buy a Wii U just to experience Nintendo's big name series like Zelda and Mario, which they release exclusively for their consoles. I bought a Wii back in 2007 and regretted it. I only got 2 games during its lifespan - Twilight Princess and Brawl, they were the only games that interested me. Other than that it just served as a glorified Netflix accessor. I'd have been better off with an Xbox 360.

I ain't buying a Wii U, which means I'll be missing out on Nintendos big titles this generation. It's not worth spending hundreds of dollars just to experience 2 or 3 good games. I'm getting an Xbox One this time. I had a Playstation during the 5th generation, a PS2 during the 6th generation, and a Wii during the 7th generation; so this will be my first ever Xbox console. I've been exclusively a PC gamer since the mid 2000s, but there's just too many good games that either aren't available for PC or are just crappy 5 second ports.

Well the Wii U is backwards compatible with Wii titles, and I heard someone say the gamecube adapter actually works for the older titles but I have no way of confirming this myself yet. It'd be smart for Nintendo to make that adapter compatible with older titles as well as some new. (I may be thinking of the classic controller in Wii mode though.)

You can also transfer your Wii shop data to the Wii U's Wii mode so it includes all your purchases on the Wii. That's probably why they suggested you get the Wii U instead.

How about pre-order exclusives that become free for those that buy the game later?

From todays content practice, pre-orders are indeed annoying. "Preorder to get an exclusive skin".People now rush to get a digital exclusive content, and even store exclusive. While Gamestop is offering an exclusive, Best Buy and sometimes even Walmart has their own exclusive content. And even if it some exclusive weapon or skin, it may not be as good as the in-game content. The thing about Pre-orders is that it secures a deposit so that both the store and publisher gains at least some of that money.

At first it was a good idea to pre-order so that you can pay the game off overtime, but now content and stuff now became the bait to lure people to it. Next thing that happens, game stinks, millions abandond it, and while people regret buying the game, the producers and developers gains millions from the dud game.

That is why I don't buy it until I see/play a demo or read customer reviews (I don't trust site or 'expert' reviews).

I liked that form too, the only thing that bugged me about it is the fact that the armor and attack strenght was greatly reduced. However, what made me like that form was the insane movement speed and attack speed, it was just so fast... Plus, when happened to me I was in the halloween town so I also had the special clothes.
I really wish that it was able to activate the drive even in the pride lands, that would be awesome, and also really useful to beat the final boss of the area.

Edit: Actually, I made a little mistake. Attack power is, in theory, increased but the defense is greatly reduced. The Anti Form exists as a consequence of abusing the Drive system, and is meant to be "strong but troublesome" so it gives a couple malus. Like Valor Form, Anti Form cannot use magic, which makes this form a full attack form, but this particular form makes it not possible to use items, which means, no healing. To top it off, Sora cannot pick up HP Balls while in Anti Form, meaning he is completely unable to heal in any way and he also can't gain experience.

I WANT to like AntiForm, but the whole "extra damage taken, no EXP" thing is what bugs me.
Turns out I also got double-trolled: the fight I mentioned was my second attempt at Xigbar. I was using the Two Become One Keyblade, not knowing what the "special effect" it gave was. At this point I've got the trophy for turning into it thirteen times (I see what you did there, Kingdom Hearts).
Oddly, when I played KH2 on the PS2 years ago, I never even SAW AntiForm untill I bought the stratagy guide, plus I'm pretty sure I triggered Final Form on the first Drive after I unlocked it. On PS3, however, even without Two Become One, I'm seeing the smoking death-trap everywhere!

yeah i'm always about speed and dodging in almost any fighting game its kinda like my style but i would simply call Anti Form a "Double Edged Sword" and its terrible they get rid of my other attributes like Healing and Def since i use those more then Attack
(have i said i love dragging battles out X3?)

The AntiForm in Kingdom Hearts II struck again today. Just as I was about to kill one of the harder bosses. On the bright side, I eventually beat the boss, and another, in a row. (Data-Saix and Data-Zexion)

How the number of offline co-op games is drastically decreasing... :(  I just wanna play together with my friend! It is the most fun way of playing videogames, and I'd rather play a lame game with friends than an awesome game completely alone.

When game developers get lazy and you can do all kinds of easy things to see outside the map which is literally an abyss. It ruins the immersion.

It's so predictable and stupid of a tactic, but if you lose to it, it's just so spirit crushing! It feels like the equivalent to being good at other fighting games, but still not good enough where you can lose to somebody just mashing buttons.

IDK how my brother does it easily, but going through Call of Duty Campaign on Veteran difficulty. It is like they have an aim-lock on me or something. I gave my brother the control to help me, and he was shocked on the ultra-incredible accuracy. He didn't had much of a problem running through it his first time on his profile, and he used his same techniques. Just not sure why in my profile the AIs decide to go perfect aim.

How quickly you lose health in Metroid Fusion. It's an ultra-fun game, but it's so much tougher than Metroid 3 or even 2!

Also, that one energy tank in Ridley's hideout on the 1st Metroid. It was the most infuriating tanks I've ever had to get. First, I had to freeze one of those Dessgeegas in the EXACT RIGHT position, jump onto it without accidently killing it with Screw-Attack, and bomb-jump PERFECTLY over the column I can only get through in ball form. That was tedious enough. Then there's the fake floor. THE FAKE FLOOR THAT DROPS ME FAR ENOUGH TO MAKE ME THROW MY CONTROLLER. There's a way to get back up, but it's difficult. There are platforms that make it to behind the tank, but those platforms are pencil-thin. If I miss a jump, there's no getting back up. Every time, I would miss the first jump. Then I would stop playing for a while. I HATED getting that tank.

And when you do that, fast forward a few days, and there'll be ANOTHER ONE. Today I started playing, and now the bots are sending me friend requests! WHAT IS THE POINT OF THAT?!

The AI drivers on the highways in GTA seem to just randomly change lanes all of the sudden for seemingly no reason. Sometimes I'll be speeding down the highway at 150 mph and someone will suddenly swerve in front of me right as I'm passing them. At which point I usually end up flying through the windshield.

Some people don't understand that if you don't one-shot a healer or seal their abilities, they're going to heal up every last bit of hp and then proceed to beat you to death with their magic get-well-never staff.

Make every female a Dark Flier and have them get the Galeforce skill, and males Dark Knights (at least those who would be good mages). Team them all up, buy a ton of powerful spells and just rush him. I think that's what my friend did. I just used my super high-level stat-capped Avatar.

Same thing with me. I've done every quest in Runescape. So the NPC's know who I am. But the Wise Old Man wants me to bring him some nature runes.... I'm a lot more talented than that! And besides, he can get them himself! He robbed a bank. Getting 5 runes isn't that difficult!

Playing The Crew and trying to drive on a dirt road with a street-specced Mustang. I realize street vehicles aren't meant to be good off of pavement, but God. The slightest turn at 30 MPH sends me helplessly spinning out. You can't tell me that's even close to realistic. It's like I'm driving on cooking oil or something. There's a mission that's half dirt that FORCES you to use a street car. By the time I finally limp my way to the paved section first place is like 8 seconds ahead, what the heck? How am I supposed to win this race driving a friggin' carousel?

Dude, Crystal Tower in FF3. First you have to go up a 13 floor tower, with some pretty high monster spawn rates. Then you fight Xande, a pretty mediocre boss. But there's an extremely long unskippable cutscene before and after. After that you have to go to the World of Darkness and fight 4 bosses, all a lot more powerful than Xande.

Then you have to fight the final boss, which is even more powerful than the other 4 bosses, and she even has an attack that could take out at least 2 team members of you aren't powerful enough to survive it. If you lose, ONCE! You're back to the entrance of the Crystal Tower.

Then my mom got mad at me for cheating my way through games and then asking her to buy me more. I stopped using cheat codes after that and realized how much they ruin games.

I hate arbitrary restrictions. You see, I'm a Ford fanboy, and my preferred cars on the The Crew reflect that....mostly. My go-to loadout for each spec is as follows:

Street - Ford Focus
Dirt - Ford F-150
Performance - Ford Mustang
Circuit - Ford Mustang
Raid - Chevrolet Silverado

Why a Chevy for raid? Because for some retarded reason the F-150 does not have a raid kit! And no, it's not just that Ubisoft was too lazy to make a raid model for it, or something. It has a model, it has stats, it's fully integrated into the game. You actually use a raid F-150 for 2 missions, but can't keep them! In fact when you go to the tuner in Las Vegas there is a raid F-150 sitting RIGHT FRIGGIN THERE yet the game has the gall to tell me my F-150 doesn't have a raid kit available! In beta you could have a raid F-150, but they took it out for God knows what reason! It's as if Somebody at Ubisoft just arbitrarily decided a raid F-150 was too manly and epic for the average player to handle!

Even stupider is that the Mustang and the Focus both have raid kids available to them. What? So a pony car and an economy sedan can be fitted for driving over sand dunes, but a 4x4 truck can't!?!? Daheck?!?! I've tried driving the Mustang for raid, but it can't handle the jumps without spinning out. Not suprising, it's a pony car, not a dune buggy! I need a truck for raid, so I have to lower myself to Chevy!

Okay, this isn't the games' fault, but I'm still posting it.
Last night at around 11 o'clock, I got all but two parts for the last piece of armour I needed in Monster Hunter. One more fight would give me what I needed. However, the fights were getting a little annoying, so I wanted to get this last part A.S.A.P. However, I can only get the parts I needed online.
...So it's too FREAKING TYPICAL that at that moment our internet decides to go out the stupid window for 4 HOURS!!!
YES, I WAS UP AT 3 IN THE MORNING TRYING TO GET OUR STUPID INTERNET TO WORK.

And speaking of Smash, I played Smash Run (didn't have a great time for the last few runs), and two things happened back to back.
1. I played as PAC-MAN in a race, and ended up being the slowest character there against a Captain Falcon CPU who somehow got OVER 950 SPEED STATS.
2. I tied with a CPU in a Vs. Enemy Team smash. The game couldn't decide who would win.
What does a game do when it can't simply say  "It's a tie"?
Easy, IT CRASHES, MAKING ME LOSE ALL MY CUSTOM PARTS.
Yesterday wasn't good for me...

Games that are console exclusive but PC players are practically screaming for and more than willing to bury it in their money if it comes out on pc. Seriously, so many companies make this huge mistake of limiting their audience quite a lot and, most importantly, do not realize that with steam you can still be selling you game TEN YEARS LATER EASY.

The profits over time are MASSIVE, provided it is a good game ofcourse.

Oh how I wish some of the really good games like the rachet and clank games could find their way onto a PC, heck, I'd take emulated versions so long as they actually WORK, which is difficult to manage to do with those games for some reason.



Also, I hate it when a boss is re-used, is sped up and ends up being stupid hard because they sped it up so fast there's pretty much no time in the fight where you can attack the boss without taking a massive magic-flamesword to the face and get 1 or 2-shot.

I don't understand why so many Skyrim roleplayers think it's illogical to have followed Hadvar from a roleplay perspective. They say in a real life scenario nobody would have gone with the faction that wanted to execute them over fellow prisoners.

Come on, look at it logically: Imagine that out of a misunderstanding and circumstantial evidence you found yourself handcuffed in the back of a police van with a bunch of renegade Hells Angels and you were innocent. When chaos breaks loose, would you go with the Hells Angel who openly admitted to being guilty of the crimes he's being convicted of and spend the rest of your life living on the run? Or would you go with the police officer who offered to uncuff you, give you a gun, help you survive and then grant you a pardon?

In a real life scenario I think I'd go with the cops. Anger over a misunderstanding is not worth throwing your freedom away.

I used to play the Korean MMO Elsword pretty regularly, but I was always irked by the fact they had new tricks at least a year before I could ever get to them...

On the other hand, they did foretell of the skill tree restructuring, so I was upset but not outraged when I could no longer equip 2 skills I loved using interchangeably on the same character.  It did kinda fuel my disconnect from the game, but that happens to me regularly enough when I don't keep a constant connection with other players (that is to say, every time).

I played a paladin in Grand Fantasia for a while, and when I did do a little healing this was the #1 thing that drove me insane.  "Get back here and let me save you from DEATH"...I should have found a way to bind that to a hotkey in chat, even if the engine didn't allow it.  :I

Besides that I never was that good a healer, but I did try.  Then again, I was never good at tanking either...I never really got down how exactly I was supposed to keep an eye on the entire party I guess.  Maybe if I'd focused more on my wizard I'd have had a better understanding of how to play.

I admit this is a little preemptive, but just thinking through the logistics of it are giving me nightmares already: breeding IVs for genderless Pokemon.  I'm about to try and breed up a Golurk I've been planning for a little while, but I only now realize that, because it's genderless, I'd have to use a perfect IV Ditto to have any chance of success.  And Perfect IV Ditto I have not, nor can I make; at least I have a few Ditto scattered about with some good IVs, but this is going to be a much longer, more drawn-out process than I had initially planned, unless something lucky happens.  And hey, I do have some experience already with multi-stage breeding!  It's just going to be tedious.

In pvp the game keep a record of all your kills, wins and minions defeated, some people like to brag about how many kills they have, and rage whenever someone "steals" one of their kills(mostly the adc are the ones who complain).

i mostly play as support or top fighter/tank, but whenever i play as adc i don't care about ks, i just want to push my lane as far as i can then i help the other lanes. But for some reason most adc just want to end 30/0/0.
I usually play support as Sona, but with her is too easy to steal a kill by mistake since her passive deals extra dmg after she cast 3 spells, also all of her skills deal dmg+debuff when her passive is active

You just got to know when to strike. You can also take advantage of their abilities and use it against them. Even level 9 CPUs can slip up like Human players.

I think it's fair for almost everything (except classic smash team battles; you need to learn how to take out 2 level 9 CPUs or get real lucky with items).
A side note, they tend to know where items spawn.

I think it's fair for almost everything (except classic smash team battles; you need to learn how to take out 2 level 9 CPUs or get real lucky with items).
A side note, they tend to know where items spawn.


A match with items can be quite a lot of fun though, so long as you take away the UFO and the bird-thingy that both take you off screen into a KO unless you mash so hard you're slowly breaking the controller, all the other items are mostly fine, I love using items as throwing weapons rather than their usual use though, like using the homerun bat as a throwing weapon, I absolutely love doing that, it just hits so hard and is pretty hard to dodge.

For the first time ever i have been forced to use the D-pad instead of the analog and whats worse is the enemies feel like there using analogs :o! or there just really really REALLY good at turning somehow

Also these Raptors keep appearing out of no where and opening doors somehow without breaking em down...there MORE annoying then endless Zubats in pokemon caves DD:
(i hope this game shows more Dinosaurs then just Raptors & T Rex's...)

Post Merge

in this game i'm playing you have to roam a HUGE building and open doors using codes & chips which you find around notebooks and tables/desks but now i'm stuck with this one thing cause a notebook memo mentioned "finding the code on the panel" but they don't say the room they just say "The panel" and there are MANY panels EVERYWHERE!

i can;t search the WHOLE building there are Dinosaurs everywhere DD:!

Tried fighting Duke Fishron in Terraria for the first time today...I was super nervous so I tried to overprepare: long asphalt skybridge, potions that might be useful to me, reforged my weapons to try and make them best I could (and ran my funds into the dirt...again).  I only had one Truffle Worm, so I wanted to make it count fighting him.  I even watched a video to see what it would be like and ensure I had the best chance of beating him, while I've tried handling everything else solo.

I apparently ran too fast, because after a minute of shooting my Leaf Blower (haven't made it through the moon-based events yet, not strong enough) at him, he went off screen and disappeared.  :l

Now I've got to go find another Truffle Worm, which I did build what I hope is a good area to look for them, but it was tedious enough finding the first one that I'm going to be working at this for a while.  Bah...

Plain old evil RNG.  I've been trying to hatch a Ducklett for hours now with a good IV spread (or at least better than the current mother) and I hatch a SHINY before I get to that point! 

To be fair, I did at least want a shiny Swanna for cosmetic purposes, so I was using the Masuda method for breeding (and so not complaining that it actually turned out a shiny Pokemon to begin with), but still I get that before her IVs line up properly.  That seem...slightly off to anyone else?

To be fair they have like, almost a million, if not more, players, the popularity for the game is absolutely bonkers and WAY more than they could've ever expected, they probably expect a hundred thousand, maybe 150 000 at most, not how many people they have now.

Here's a tip, if you do not know the person, assume they have the intelligence of a 5 year old and are completely unwilling to learn anything new that contradicts anything they already know, basically assume they are the worst players you can get on your team, gets you pleasantly surprised when that's not the case, when it is though, which is quite often actually, particularly in any kind of co-op game, you're still gonna be frustrated sadly.

I know, that's a problem I have with Splatoon: getting stuck with what I've called "janitor duty".
Normally there's a lot of inkable space right next to your spawn point. But then EVERY OTHER PLAYER just bee-lines STRAIGHT FORWARD, immidiately putting us at a disadvantage we might not be able to come back from. And who's stuck behind who has to ink ALL that turf? ME.

I've multiple times lost because people on my team just don't ink certain spots and all, and yeah I'm also usually on janitor duty, that feel when having your own base fully inked gives you the .1% needed to wind however, that is an amazing feeling.

This new found system of fighting where you have to have a combo of 8 to takedown an enemy in a group of enemies but when you use a counter strike and didn't counter anyone it still counts as a miss and ya got to go back to 1 combo or if you take too long to hit of course
WHAT WAS I THINKING WHEN I STARTED ARKHAM CITY ON HARD MODE DD:!
(not to mention the takedown combo is a double button push move and i keep pushing one button at a time by mistake which sometimes gets me hit by the enemy or makes me miss the enemy going back to 1 combo)

Not really IN the video game but kinda related. Accidentally kicking or dropping something on the console or just touching the cassette to crash and make you restart (especially if you made it far and it doesn't save, you gotta go AALLL the way back)

Games like Disney Infinity or Bakugan Dimensions require you to buy there toys to unlock characters but they don't require you to unlock all the characters, i only want to play as my favorite characters yet i'm forced to buy a pack sometimes which is why i have 2 figures for Disney Infinity i have no use for and there just laying on the table collecting dust, i wanna sell em but have no idea how to online sell, my dad has done it before yet he doesn't want to do anything to teach me


I think the worst thing with these kind of games is that they have NO alternatives for people who want to play as characters, are willing to PAY for said characters, but don't want the actual figurines. Couldn't they like, sell digital packs of code to basically replace those? It would be even better for when you eventually quite simply can't get the Read the forum rules. figures in the first place.

another thing to complain about is how Disney Infinity doesn't have any online multiplayer system yet, i'd love a fair play arena setup and a tag team thing but noting yet!, i hear there gonna have some sorta 4 player system for the Dungeon game "Toy Box Takeover"

Well... technically in the video game, but more online play.

I am starting to see Smash online turn to more Super Spam Bros. for 3 hours straight, every match were spammers. Either projectile, counter, smash, ect., its starting to annoy the heck out of me. Just recently, me and my neph dominate 2v2s and even after people spam, we use anti-spam tactics to won, all without spamming ourselves. Until now, there are even more harcore spammers that now start to become an enygma. Lil Mac spammers make me cringe so bad cause I second-main Lil Mac and I see so many mistakes spammin smashes.

Now the sorst part... we came with spammers so harcore, it felt impossible to even beat them with ANY of our mains. Pushed us to the brink that we even spammed ourselves, and that is now the tables turn. We ended up winning them spamming, but comes to show 2 things: 1) They arent the greatest in spamming cause we can spam better, and 2) its a matter of time where spamming may be the only way to smash.

Spammers really are killing the traditional smash spirit of fighting. :c Even if I do happen to beat everyone who tends to spam by not spamming myself, it just doesnt feel right anymore.

well i never got the chance to play Smash online and i most likely never will i can see how that's terrible, no respectable fighters who fight with honor instead of spam sounds horrible to me, reminds me of what happen with CN TKO back when i used to play it

So 2 things are annoying me right now about 1 game in particular,
In "Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 Full Burst" there is this LIMITED time costume you can get with a code or buy in the PSN store as DLC but i read its LIMITED most likely meaning there is no way i can get it now, i'm not the biggest fan of Dragon Ball Z but the costume looks so awesome on Naruto!

Achievements/Trophies that you can only get during online battles (yes i like collecting them), now i'm not sure if it's my skills that are lacking or there simply doing cheat moves but i have only won about 1 battle in online matches of the Ninja Storm series so far not to mention the annoying response lag in character movement that makes it near to impossible to win when somehow the other players seems to have perfect control of there character
(lets not forget the fact everyone likes using Naruto Or Minato the OP of OP)

For me, the most annoying thing is gaming (besides games that still think lives are a good idea outside of an arcade) are roguelikes. It really annoys me how hours of playing will mean completely nothing is you screw up or how some runs seem to give me nothing to work with.

So i was planing on downloading the new 3.0 Disney Infinity yesterday instead of buying the disc because i didn't want to wait for shipping & cause i already had 20 bucks on my Ps3, turns out the game is just TOO HUGE to download into a Ps3 so now i gotta ask my parents for money again even though i promised it would be the last time i'd ask them for extra stuff this year
(i already got about 3 Disney Infinity 3.0 Figures with 2 3.0 Playsets)

Skylanders is one of my absolute favorite series. However the new game, SuperChargers, was QUITE a letdown.
First: CO-OP SUCKS. Sometimes if you swap characters, their hat will be swapped with Player 2's, and since my brother just HAD to have the right hat, we had to keep pausing and re-equipping it.
Second: The final boss. I'll put it in spoilers just in case.
Spoiler: show
So the last game, Trap Team, had the main villain, Kaos, turn into a freaking half-crystal-half-Sephiroth-style dark angel, with giant blades and epic high-speed dubstep orchestra in the background in a pretty visually awesome 5-phase battle.
This time? A slightly bigger normal Kaos in a floating chair with big purple hands and frankly boring battle music. Wow.
Oh, but TECHNICALLY that's not the final fight, but it's the last character fight. Afterwards you fight this giant dark-machine hybrid in space or something. Sound awesome? Well, it's a vehicle segment, meaning all you do is drive, avoid stuff, hit boosts, and OCCASIONLY fire your weapons. And the music is boring.

Third: OH MY GOD THE FINAL SONG IN THE CREDITS. It seems to be the main theme for the game, but GOD, it's more cheesy and vomit-indusing than Gen 1 MLP songs! I'd rather listen to all of Rarity's songs in a row twice than hear that again. (Not saying her songs are bad, I'm just not a Rarity fan).

So right now i'm playing a certain game where you had to fight hordes of enemies until something happened to get on top of this tower (someone uses lightning to lift up platforms as seen in a video i watched recently) but for some reason notings happenings so i guess its a glitch, i'll have to fight them all over again i guess

another thing would be upgrade options that make you OP cause you dunno if you HAVE to upgrade to beat the game or its just an option plus there is no way to undo upgrades after there done most of the time
games with out a reply level selection option ovO

Ok so in the certain game i'm playing there are waves of enemies who block the path and have far ranged attacks that you can hardly dodge to run past them so i'm forced to back track and blast them with far ranged weapons but recently the game started to save the checkpoints i just past so now i lose ammo everytime i'm knocked out and i backed tracked all the way back to the last check point

The recent status of the Lol servers in LAN, its so bad that i don't dare to even play a normal right now because even if i start with 60 ping in just a matter of seconds goes to 600 or instead it simply disconnects from the game, yesterday i was in a match when suddenly 3 of my teammates disconnected and one on the enemy team also went afk, we went 2v4 until the minute 20 because if we were to leave the game then the penalty is on us even when it was clearly the server fault...

Got me 2 rants. 1 Smash and 1 Destiny.

1) I just realized there is something called For Glory Heck, which is a special server to place those players who have been reported. Unfortunately, there are those super salty players or trolls who report on those good players. Its cool that they separate those spammers, trolls, and taunting SDing players, but it sucks that it also houses the good players. If you play too good (well even below average and still beat this person), you end up in For Glory Heck from the reports. Pretty much these people abuse the report button. Sooner or later For Glory regular will be just filled with salty players and noobs who can't beat these salty people. Might as well remove the report altogether and just let the system record how many times this player used this particular move.

Now for my bigger rant. Its within the game, but a business as well.
2) Not sure if I should follow my 2 brothers to buy the Taken King. Honestly, I really quit Destiny. Right after the update, some of the stuff that I actually had since I bought it are now impossible to even use. I can't even enter raids, I can't do these nightfalls, weekly or even daily challenges. Also, you are stuck in 34 unless you bought The Taken King, and if you bought the other 2 expansions, the raids wont work for crud either, and you can't get level 35+gear. Even worse, I am nerfed as heck, probably more nerfed than Diddy and Greninja combined. Its like your phone that comes with unlimited plans and you buy all these apps, and then they take away the unlimited part and try to sell it to you again, and you can't even use much of your apps. Its more than a rip-off, its a rip-away. Well... luckily for me I didn't bought any of the DLCs and I bought the game used. The complete collection I could probably get for selling my game and upgrading... just not sure if it is even worth it anymore considering I would just be grinding to boredom, and crucible doesn't entertain me as much. Once I finished the Raid (if I can even find 6 random people to play with... let alone if they even bought the Taken King), then... its just sit to collect dust.

Judging by how big my rant was... I probably say this is the worst game I ever bought and experienced, and I played a lot of games. I'll just stop here. I probably rant longer than the max character the post limits me. So yea... I probably won't get the expansion, and instead sell it. Was fun while it lasted.

I was going to get Destiny, but then all the talk of basically no story came out, and my interest bombed.
Also, I only have one thing to say about the Smash thing:
OH HAI LEAGUE OF LEGENDS.

I could honestly tell ya you will be done pretty quickly with the story. With expansions, thats basically what was suppose to be the length of the total gameplay time. I think more of the emphasis went for matchmaking strike missions and versus player. Story isn't much deep unless you get all the DLCs.

I could understand for Smash. I probably wouldn't go For Glory anymore. I just play together with people I know. At least we still play it traditionally X3 .

What is it with RPGs railroading the player character into leadership of any organization they join? Elder Scrolls is particularly guilty of this. I'm just some random dude joining a guild who's never heard of me and literally a week later I'm crowned leader over people who have been there for decades. It's ridiculous.

Aela should have been harbinger.
Tolfdir should have been archmage.
Brynjolf should have been guildmaster.
Nazir should have been listener.
Serana should have been Lady of Volkihar.

Imagine you're 40 years old and have been working for the same corporation since you graduated college 2 decades ago. The CEO is retiring and you're a prime candidate for the position after 2 decades of rock-solid numbers. Then out of nowhere some 20 year old scumbag fresh out of college gets hired on as an entry-level flunky and suddenly gets promoted to CEO before he's even out of probation. Yeah, something about that just ain't right.

This is absolutely right! Not only this, but the fact that especially in the elder scrolls games, the 'Hero' (player) happens to also be a member of guilds about thieving and such, you can be a hero who has saved countless lives, and then steal all their valuables.

Well, one of the things that i find annoying in video games is that, when you're fighting a boss and you're on the verge on winning, something happens and you screw up, taking damage from something that he does and eventually dies, making you restart the fight all over again  X3

While i think that is nice in a way because when you restart the fight you are waaaay more prepared than the previous one, it still makes me cringe a little by the thought that i could've already advancing in the game without bothering to fight the boss once again lol

You know why I haven't used power armor much in Fallout 4? Because I can't stand that ugly yellow color that the power armor HUD is stuck in. You can changed to color of the pipboy yet can't changed the power armor HUD, why?

Also it's stupid the way the power armor HUD lacks details that the pipboy has. Namely the distance and altitude difference of map waypoints.

I find a stockpile of psycho with maxed chemist perks and a BioCommMesh to be a sort of power armor lite anyway. If you aren't addicted to psycho, you aren't playing on survival difficulty.

Inversely, not knowing what level things in the relative area are going to be: something I'm playing right now gives you access to multiple dungeons at once but doesn't give a general level description (or any level description, really), leading you to go wandering in out of curiosity and getting flattened by something 10 levels higher than what you were fighting last time.  It's led me to grind to the point I think I'm overleveled, but I still seem to struggle on story events.  Maybe I'm just not playing to 100% battle capacity...I love RPGs, but I don't exactly plan every move, especially when it's more complicated than single-player Pokemon...

Not so much a complaint on games, but on the people involved (either devs or fans, generally)

I'm tired of people treating criticism and hate as the same thing. like, I can't make a negative comment about a game anymore without being attacked by fanboys/girls who are somehow personally hurt by my "hatred of the game." and that the only reason I "hate" the game is that i'm terrible at it, or I'm trolling, or that I'm somehow trying to tear down the game because I'm afraid it'll overshadow a game I like. or something silly like that.

Criticism isn't hate. nothing is perfect. and the worst thing you can tell an artist is that their work is good when it isn't. Just because I think some aspect of a game is poorly done doesn't mean I want it gone. Nor does it mean I'm insulting fans of it. Heck, a game can be complete rubbish, but I won't hate it. Fable II is one of my favorite games of all time, and yet i can tear it apart with complaints. And even then, i still think its a good game, and not just a guilty pleasure.

long story short. If someone is criticizing part of a game, or a game, they're not necessarily attacking you, as a fan. And also, if someone simply doesn't like a game, that's their opinion. they're not saying you're not allowed to like it, or that you are bad for liking it. Not everyone has to like what you do, and not everyone has to dislike what you dislike.

To me, it's enemies that have a random chance of unleashing a final attack after you've already taken them down. Almost nothing infuriates me more than barely surviving a tough fight, only for the enemy to suddenly explode in dark magic, taking out the final sliver of my health in the process when 90% of the time, they don't. This is made worse when they drop a health item after their loss, offering a compelling reason to move towards them. At a close second is getting poisoned when I'm playing a glass cannon type of character. ovO

At a close second is getting poisoned when I'm playing a glass cannon type of character. ovO
i just imagined taking out a mini boss with remaining low health and as we move on 2 buff type enemies come swinging it to finish us

With every Smash update, every recordings are completely usable.

(OOR: Out of Rant)
Well how is that? Well the in-game saved matches actually saves the controller inputs and other mechanics into a short memory box for when the player decides to save or not. So, with every update, character balances are made, and so if you were to recreate the same button input, some changes can be noticable, and therefore may desync with the original match. Example since Ganondorf now has super armor on his turn-around warlock punch, he can't flinch. Prior updates did not have it, so you hit him, he gets knocked back. However using the same saved match (saved controller input match) the outcome will be different and therefore will not yield the same result. It is why every update makes past saved matches obsolete.

----BACK<------
---To the Rant----->

Why am I annoyed of this? Well... I don't own a Wii U unfortunately. However I have a nephew who does and we have lots of fun and record good matches. He doesn't come very often and when he does, I use my capture card to forever save the moments.
BUTT...
There are times the update has to be made, and the saved matches become obsolete, and therefore have no choice but to delete the matches. Gets me annoyed cause I didn't get the chance to actually record them before the updates roll out, and some of them were good ones.

Well... wasn't that bad to have an update roll out after 2-3 months (unlike the other update that broke Diddy once again and had to roll another update in 3 days or he be broken OP again. Had a good saved match in that time too.) At least now they have updated to render and upload straight to Youtube. Though I like the quality the Elgato capture card delivers much better. (Hehe Elgato. It is like saying spanish for Thecat)

I'm playing Final Fantasy Lightning returns at the moment, i got these 2 group of outfits & weapons & shields which all came to me for owning the past 2 games, so i consider them "special" items but why in the world are they weaker then certain regular items you get at the Forge/regular store?! i don't wanna mix and match right now cause i want to keep it "iconic" plus i really like the appearance of these items, still! why are they weaker then the ordinary items?! it doesn't make any sense to me ono!

Been there with CPU as buddies. Either clumsy, Leroy Jenkins wannabes, or even unhelpful.

The grinding... well grinding for level ups isn't all too bad for me, though it is annoying to spend so much time to reach the level you want. However grinding for luck-based stuff of incredible rarity are my true headache. Possibly get so unlucky you may never get it.

You ever get the feeling that people are cheating? No, not like actually using programs to cheat, but the fact that there are people who are so good at a game that you cannot mentally wrap your head around the fact that someone could have mastered their character so well that the only solution is that person has got to be cheating.

Its how i felt when fighting someone in the Ps2 Naruto games and they kept playing as Itachi... back then i went ballistic trying to figure out why i can't even land one punch (the person i played with back them has long since vanished though so i can;t get my revenge :l!)

Another Disney Infinity thing but its been a couple months sense i sent in the compliant about a certain glitch in Disney Infinity and it still hasn't been fixed... i don;t know much about programming and stuff but with all the stuff they been doing i'd think fixing the Boss Spawner to stop the boss from not moving or taking damage would be 2nd nature or something, its ruining all my creations since i usually put bosses in the waves of enemies

i wonder if some of these video games just assume everyone googles about guides and such, like how am i supposed to know the boss will become a stronger version of themselves if i took a certain amount of time to fight them... now i'm stuck with Snow++ in Lighting returns >:O!

i mean i like strong enemies but i just wanted to finish the game so i could move on to one of my other games and i have no idea why none of the minions/enemies haven't dropped a Firestrike ability so i can at least stagger him DD:

...think i could beat him though, i just have to use fire on all my skills maybe?

Games that only have 1 save slot and if u want to make a new game u have to wipe out completely your previous hard earned progress otherwise u can't, nowadays is not that usual to see that but still i have some bad memories about certains games and one that accidentally erased from a friend ps2 memory card, sometimes even after all this years he still brings the topic of the erased file lol, the pain never leaves apparently.

I have some games on the Ps3 like that, my cousin keeps asking to try my games out and i don't want to start a new game because of that, i could save it on a Flash Drive though but he doesn't give me the time :l

I bought an XBox 360 controller for my PC gamepad specifically because of this problem.  It's helped tremendously, but I'm still annoyed I had to do it.

I currently do not have the money to buy another controller, unfortunately. I used to have a couple controllers I would use, but I lost them to a flood.

Not being able to jump. I like to be able to explore each and every little area of the map. Plus, sometimes you can get some great views from up high. So I like to climb on stuff  X3  There's nothing more painful then being surrounded by rocks, cliffs, trees, or even fences that are just begging to be scaled....and you have no "jump" button  DD:

If RNG screws you over in chapter 11A in FE6 like me then beg for mercy. That chapter where you get Lilina is pretty annoying if you want all the treasure chests.

For FE7 The bonus chapter were you get Jaffar is pretty annoying.

For FE8 I have to say chapter 9, Ephraims route.

I feel that, especially in War Thubder.
I mean, who in their right mind would wanna share the same singular half a brain cell that every single spawncamper shares?

..
Though maybe I'm being a little too harsh.
Spawncamping ruins games, especially when it's not kept under control and it really gets under my skin when people start spawncamping over the course of multiple matches in a row.
