Things that don't ruin a good game, but are still infuriating.

>you can't navigate the menus using the keyboard

>you can't invert mouse wheel scrolling

>there is no autowalk button

>"pause" button on keyboard won't pause the game, escape does though

>playing with a mod that fixes gameplay issues disables achievements

It's not that I care about achiements, it's more that some devs are so stuck up their own ass, that they believe that achievements actually matter.

Ironman mode in Paradox games is probably the worst offender.

>>15304474

>Unskippable cutscenes

>Unskippable dialogue

Those ruin a good game for me. This thread is highly subjective by design, but why do you think that unskippable cutscenes don't ruin an otherwise good game? They force you to waste time of your life not playing the game and listening to dialogue about a story you most likely already experienced once or twice in the past.

>>15304492

Aw fuck, those so much. Also:

>alt tabbing out and in again mutes game audio

>alt tabbing takes a shitload of time

If the game is still fun I don't care too much about it, but holy shit it's infuriating to have to go into the audio settings after every time you alt tab to look something up or mess with your media player.

I'd say Gears of War popularized it and HL2 invented it. It's also not a little sin. It's a big, greasy, stupid sin.

I hate this so much. Sometimes you can just delete the intro videos from the game files, but more often than not it doesn't work that way.

>shops sell items worse than what you find in the wild

The order of item quality should be: super secret hidden boss>boss>expensive items in shops>wild>normal items in shops>shit monsters

>>15307791

>armor customization is locked by an arbitrary rank

Children of a dead Earth did tis stupid thing where you have to complete parts of the campaign to unlock the fleet designer, then some more to unlock the ship designer, and THEN some stupidly difficult bullshit mission that is more based on luck than anything else to unlock the parts designer.

It's bullshit.

>Underwater level inverts your controls out of nowhere

As long as it's just an underwater level and not every time you go under water.

<fall in puddle

<can't get out before breath runs out because they fucked with the controls

GTAV is guilty of this.

>>15308274

>common fuctions are bound to the mouse wheel

My mousewheel is completely screwed, so I try to bind zoom in and zoom out to some extra buttons my mouse has. Sadly this doesn't work with every game, so I would consider it a little sin too.

You pace it out either with puzzles, use the downtime to build atmosphere or even just trekking to the next fight might be enough. If you must absolutely need to have your character interact with other by talking then at the very least let me move fucking normally.

Every time you're stuck in these slow, tedious sequences hearing characters you don't really care much for talk about something not really that interesting it takes away from the game. HL2 got worse from it, GOW got worse from it and I'm sure every game that does it won't lose much from not having it. It makes me not want to replay the game, which I'm sure it's the opposite of what developers would want.
