Peak nostalgia. So many fun memories with this. I miss playing these games locally with my siblings - will def. bring this one out this Christmas 😊

Bad console ports on PC where mouse control code was recycled from gamepad control code. For example, in Just Cause 2, the maximum turn rate is capped and so is the minimum cursor acceleration, with the end result being when you move the mouse your character moves like you’ve mushed a gamepad control stick instead of the fast, smooth, PC cursor style movement of the reticle that every other PC FPS manages to pull off.

Text scaling in game where text is plot critical.

Important for things like steamdeck, some marked "verified" should be downgraded to "playable" due to the text size and inability to scale it.

Delta_V,

And timed, text heavy games on mobile generally.

Squinting at you, Hearthstone.

How did you finish Minecraft?

To me, killing off the ender dragon is the end of minecraft but this run was with friends in a server so we did a speedrun of it. My friends are extremely experienced players so we beat the ender dragon in just 4 days of starting the game. We’re currently building stuff in our server and exploring end game content

SippyCup,

Years and years ago I had a server with a few friends and we built a massive city populated with villagers. It got to the point where you couldn’t ever have the entire thing loaded at once because there were so many.

Then they did an update and we stopped playing and that was the last time I touched it.

Do you fight the wither before or AFTER the dragon >_>

Heal-over-time systems in CoD-like shooters lack feedback and are unreliable in terms of measuring difficulty of a task and feeling like you did something special. Everything becomes boringly average.

Hunting around a level for health packs before it wasn’t great either.

vateso5074,

I thought Halo CE’s system of shields plus health was a neat innovation. Shields regenerate, health does not. Health is basically a buffer for survivability when shields go down, but you can survive combat at low health as long as you’re watching your shields.

The sound cues for shields low/down/regenerating provide a lot more feedback, too.

I got carpal tunnel syndrome just watching this

No save option during stealth sequences or generally in stealth-heavy games. Allow me the option to either improvise and enjoy messing up or plan and execute and test every section of a stealth route carefully without having to replay the mission a thousand times, especially when the slightest hiccup will have the whole mission going awry. If that leads to some people save-scumming their way through the entire mission, so be it. Let them play their way.

Multiple un-skippable product and company credits at the start. Show a blinking “Loading…” if that is what is going on but let me skip this stuff on the second start onward.

I can hear that bridge just looking at that picture.

  1. When rebinding the keys, the game wont let me save the changes unless everything has something assigned.
  2. During character creation the lightning on the model is completely different what you will see in game and I end up with an ugly character (Dragon’s Dogma, Saints Row 3 remaster, etc.)

And you read your Emily Dickinson
And I my Robert Frost
And we note our place with book marks
That measure what we lost

… I know those places. I’ve been there. A long time ago.

How do you consider Fallout 76 to be finished, considering it’s a live service game with fairly regular content updates?

Needing to log into an online account to play a single-player game.

When a single-player game keeps pausing to tell me it can't connect to the server.

Lojcs,

Especially when this happens in small indie games.

You were the chosen one Anakin!
