We’ve all got them, gaming pet-peeves. Maybe it’s the unskippable cutscene, or the poorly placed checkpoint that means you’ve got to sit through the aforementioned cutscene once again. Maybe it’s the end-game boss with a surprise second health-bar, or the random difficulty spike that doesn’t feel fair.

What’s on your videogame sh*t list?

    Cutesy games with violence as part of the gameplay.

    I’m not talking about games which intentionally put these into a juxtaposition, like Cult of the Lamb or Binding of Isaac, but rather games which want to be cutesy, but also don’t have any other idea for gameplay than making two characters bash each other’s head in.

    Nintendo is often weird here, like Advanced Wars 1+2 is literally a war game, but when your army invades a foreign city, the animation has a soldier just stomping on the city sprite, because I guess, this genocide needs to be child-friendly. Pokémon is also very weird.
