Ever played a really really cool game, but there's just this one tiny aspect or feature of it that really flippin' irks you? Can be a stage, boss battle, item, plot twist, cutscene, song, cameo appearance - anything that makes you go "whyyyy is this thing in here?" ;~;



Thread inspired by Mario Kart Wii. I've (only just recently... shush up) acquired said game, and it's loads of fun. But hot-flippity expletives, Pow Blocks piss me off. They're just the most annoying thing. But even more so than that, blue spiny shells make me "b'awwwww". Mario Kart's items make the game feel like Nintendo deliberately tried to make the game "anybody's race". When you're behind, you can get items like the bullet, or star, which will catch you waaay up to the competition. But when you're ahead, the game literally won't give you an item such as those. I mean, getting it at least occasionally would be nice. To make things not feel so forced. But no, it's not even a possibility. Not even a rare one.

And the spiny shell is the ultimate example of forced evenness, as it automatically goes after first place, with little to no ways to defend from it. And how uncool is that if you're leading the entire race, and get hit by one at the final stretch, and end up in 4th because the race is now over? Whenever it was clear that you would have had it in the bag? Rawr about that.

I do love the game much <3 , but it's just hard to get competitive about it because of how the game handicaps the players. Gauging true skill in it is tough.

Few things aggrevate me as much as fumbling the ball in Madden when someone just did a normal tackle... and I despise in certain FPS how enemies can be 100 yards away and have sniper-like precision with their automatic weapons and the reaction time of a mongoose... such as the enemies in Resistance and Killzone...
