It isn’t common anymore but I hated how in old JPRGs your lose a member of your party when shit goes down or they’re written out the story for a brief time. I remember Final Fantasy IV being especially bad with this as I kept swapping team members in every event. Likewise, I dislike mandatory party members.
Insert “your downtown is that bad? inb4 u live in detroit/cleveland/etc.” joke here.
As for landscapes… for it’s time, PlanetSide 1 offered just this. Varied, and sometimes surprisingly detailed nature areas. My personal favorite was a winter-themed forest. It was pretty, plus one of its trees had been knocked down… and I’m talking a huge tree. Well, the center of its stump had rotted out or been carved out or something, because that part of the tree was hollow. I would often troll bomber crews as infantry by hurling some flak rockets up there to piss them off, then run inside the fallen tree. They’d see me on radar, and begin carpet bombing the area… not once figuring out why, exactly, I was surviving their disproportionate retaliation. Then after someone shot them down, I’d step back out and look at the (relatively) pretty snow. Fun times.
*The main villain somehow always being a misunderstood altruist in JRPGs. “Yeah, he razed a bunch of cities, killed millions, but he’s a good guy,” ummm 
*Anti-Climactic final boss battles “You mean, the midgame boss is harder than the final boss? How the fuck does that make any sense”
*Magic being completely silly. "I can summon lightning, meteors and make you enter an alternate dimension, but I cannot burn a simple tree branch…good shit magic :tup: "
there’s a lot of dumb shit in gaming
Say what you want about the Japanese but at least they don’t run into " USA Hero Syndrome" when it comes to character design…frequently
Dear God, I’m starting to miss the “Blonde Hair, Blue Eyes” Stereotype 90’s games gave us when showing an American.
To be fair, Dark Falz was THE force of evil in the UNIVERSE, in Phantasy Star… even including on Earth.
To be fair some of those designs came from Japan(Snake, Frank, and Chris). There is always going to be that one base design everyone uses over and over. Fighting games has a dude in karate gi or a Bruce Lee clone.
Big Boss would fuck all them bitches ass up.
Nanomachines
- Stupid fucking dumbass side missions.
2.Fucked up dying in MW3. (WHY AM I FUCKING TWITCHING AFTER BEING SHOT IN THE HEAD?)
3.MW3
4.METAL GEAR SOLID HD COLLECTION… (I just knocked out a guy and I can’t take his gun? W.T.F.)
Hey, it’s not Sam Witwer’s fault he naturally looks like that.
RPGs/MMOs that add “difficulty” by adding stupidly high evasion rates to the enemies.
Which one is Cole?
Those short, unskippable cutscenes that show you what happens when you hit a button or otherwise trigger an event, or blatantly shows you where you are supposed to go.
That whole “I don’t know who to level because they might disappear for a while”. 
Far left, third row if you’re not trolling. I did think the Apprentice was Cole though lol.
As much as I dislike the losing your powers bullshit, at least in God of War 2 that shit made sense. They had to nerf that guy some way.
naaa he was the avatar of evil after a retcon, and Profound Darkness was his master.
I hate games that take place on fictional worlds, yet still have stereotypical towns. Japanese RPG’s are bad for this, seems every fictional world has an exact replica of Japan with shoguns and sumos and ninjas and etc.
Amnesia.
You guys disappoint me.
The condition, not the game.
The funny thing is videogames suffer from both retrograde (The rather rare but common in fiction I LOST ALL MY MEMORIES) and anterograde (The I saw you and don’t remember your face 10 minutes later, which is more common) amnesia.
Like in some games you can go on killing sprees then hide for 1 minute and everything is dandy again.
Dragon’s Dogma
Spoiler
I found it funny that you get accused and caught of trying to hook up with the queen and get thrown in the dungeon, but once you walk out, you can go up to the king and talk like nothing is wrong.
Same guy.
Dark Falz was all of him he could manifest… whenever Dark Falz manifested.
Also:
Shoguns and ninjas are awesome, and transcend both reason and space time.
Sumos aren’t exactly social butterflies, but will fuck you up all the same, ergo their bending the continuum to be a fantasy staple.
