Most annoying "thing" in video games?

[logical thinker]

 

[KingdomBlade]

For me? Any game that lacks a deep story or has a generic story. (Like Pokemon. The only bad thing about Pokemon for me is the incredibly generic story. Team wants to control world. Gets badges. Uses Legendary. Beats/Captures legendary. Beats team. Beat elite four. The end.)

Ah I've got another one; when an exclusive franchise starts jumping platforms halfway through a story (*cough*Square-Enix*cough*). I am not buying a PSP just for 2 games.

Definitely lava. I know it hurts, but why must you instantly die most of the time? Super Mario 64 half-fixed that, but then Mario kept flying in the air with his ass on fire, and if you eventually do get on land, he runs like crazy and falls in the lava again! DAMN.

Thought of some more..

Crappy AI that don't do shit, all they do is die.
Games that keep repeating a line of text throughout the whole game.
Grinding for tons of hours just to get past one bit of the game.

*cough* Slippy Toad *cough*

Water Levels in games! (E.g Sonic)

 

[Translucentbill]

One hit and you die, wtf?.....

3. AI companions with shitty brains. There's a puzzle in one of the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles games for the DS, and it's horrible. You have to position person two people on two different switches and two people on a bookshelf. Now, if you put one person on a switch and switch to another party member, the person steps off the switch, and if you put someone on the bookshelf and switch to another party member the person jumps off the bookshelf. Unless you have a friend with the game or Wifi, the puzzle is unable to be done. Now, I hate things like this. REALLY hate it.

I think you're doing that one wrong, cuz IIRC, you have to push something on top of the switch

 

[Berthenk]

Fail teammember AI.
Yes, I'm looking at you Scamco Bandai!
Healers running around doing nothing but fighting with their lame weapons that don't do damage for shit while you and the rest of your team is dieing...
Also spamming special attacks and shizzle while their MP is low as shizzle.
Low defense stats geezers like mages casting spells that bring the towards the enemy before casting if they are computer controlled...
And when done casting stand around like a moron with a huge sword held horizontal turning around for 2 seconds...

Two words. Pixel hunting.

 

[blackdragonbaham]

the flute passage at the endboss stage in zelda st
normally they are easy to do but this one i am not able to handle
couldn't beat the game till yet because of that, very annoying

 

[TwoBladedKnight]

Not about any game in particular but corrupt save data or self deleting save data PISS ME OFF!

 

[Zenith94]

Annoying people in public in-game voice chat.

 

[Sephi]

missions/things that have timers for no fucking reason. especially when the timers are unrealistic and the mission is senselessly difficult.

 

[The Catboy]

Another thing I hate
Games that try to be like Halo!

+1

I hate games that have that.

 

[Hatsu]

I can't beat the First boss in Zelda: ST. :ragequit:

 

[hatredg0d]

crates/boxes/jars/ect. when you have to go around endlessly smashing these thing. it gets OLD when half the games made do this. lol, ok not half.

 

[Slyakin]

You can't be serious. Anyway, how does that even relate to the topic?

On topic: I also think that water in general is annoying to gaming. It can kill you instantly? WTF? And the timers they give you? Sonic was mean and cruel in that sense.

Random other thing, escort missions, they suck. They suck more when the person you are escorting run right into the line of fire with no weapons (or when they have weapons they don't use them or shot randomly in the air) get attacked by what you were trying to prevent from killing them and then they die, thus making you have to start all over again.
Fallout 3, Fable, Resident Evil, and Pokemon Mystery Dungeons are just 4 (well all 9 if you count the pokemon games) that do this and half the time they are part of the main story, which makes it even worse having to replay the main story over and over again. I know people always complain about this, but there can't be enough said on why this sucks

Next is stealth missions in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days, I love this game, I have to admit that, but damn those stealth missions sucked. I really can't get into how annoying they are, it's something you kinda need to play to really get.
