image, ramirez do everything
It always seems that all of my other teammates are completely incompetent, seeing as I have to do everything myself.
What I was going to say. No one else seems to have the ability to do anything.

I love the fantasy setting cliche of dwarves living underground yet also loving beer. Where do they grow the hops etc. needed to brew beer if they live in a mountain?
Imported from Mexico. My favourite cliché is how there is no Mr Man with a name beginning with the letter A. Off topic, but a cliché at that. And the mountain spoke.

Red barrels always explode when shot.

It seems that there is a committee somewhere that decided all highly unstable chemicals must be stored in red barrels, yet they never made the effort to place them in a safe location.

Probably how it's always I who have to take out that machine gun, mortar, tank, whatever...
Yes. This exactly. Why am I, tactical master, one-man-warmachine, king of the world and savior of the universe, the one who has to tell that ginger woman to get an abortion.

The glory of Mass Effect was only used for example. But take COJ:BiB. Why am i the guy on the minigun? THere are three people behind me who could do it whilst i bogoff and set the charges under the bridge.

If I have a sword I am almost entirely immune to bullets ... except in cutscenes, then they F*** my shit up.

The fact that everyone and everything (almost) has either amazingly strong or amazingly weak skin/armor. You can shoot an unarmored civilian in the foot in some games, and they will die instantly. Or, you can shoot a krogan in the eyes repeatedly and it will still run over and melee you without any problem.

The part where I can barge in people's houses without permission and they treat it as if it's completely normal may be eligible. There's also the chosen one deal... There's practically warriors with years of experience dealing with this shit, why did the supernatural forces pick the flimsy rural teenager to save the world from an evil empire?

"hi kids, it's me, the Lich King. Even though I can kill you now by as much as breaking wind, I'm gonna let you live so you can grow all powerful and come kill me for some loot you'll neglect in about a year."

Pretty much that one, with the boss respawns on a close second.

"Congratulations, you saved the mages and killed the evil blue dragon leader, now do it again next week."

IT's funny how on cutscenes you and your allies can do fun and crazy things, like on ME2 where
Thane drops from the ceiling, snaps the neck of a guard, steal the big main boss thing pistol , shoot the second guard then shoot the big badass boss but ingame he's as dumb as a lightpost

the escort mission thing where you escort a scrawny scientist to a door to unlock it for you.

i have made it this far, and have gone through several hundred doors myself, either by hacking the control pannel or destroying them. why did they make this one door in particular so hard to hack/nuke proof? and why are there doors after this one i can hack/destroy? i made it through that one, what made them think i can't through these?

The fact that no matter what kind of gun it is or who made it, the hero needs exactly 0 training to be able to shoot it perfectly.

In LoZ:

1) How you always have JUST the right amount of keys.
2) The villains decide to place items you need in the dungeon YOU NEED THEM IN.

That I have enough magical firepower to blast my way through dragons and greater demons, yet certain doors still need a VERY specific key to get through.
OR
I've cut my way through the bones and armor of hundreds of enemies, yet I need a rogue to pick the lock on a chest.

I mean, you get used to it, but still, it's laughable.

And as your picture stated, it's always the "minorities" out of your squad that end up being the workhorses/your character is a workhorse and also happens to be a "minority".

In gameplay, your teammates can survive massive amounts of bullet wounds, 3rd degree burns, sharp and pointy objects being jabbed at them every five seconds and explosive devices detonating at their feet, but the minute a cutscene starts, their supernatural invincibility goes away and a single bullet will render them dead.
