Good game, great game even, but I bloodywell hate this damned bit!

[sms_117b]

Ok this thread is about games you love, and the one bit, the single bit of said game, that you despise and don't really want to play through a second time, let alone third, fourth or fifth.

I'll shoot first, Dragon Age: Origins, Love it, not many don't, but..

Spoiler

When you're in the Mages tower and Sloth sends you all into the fade so you have to go around getting transformation powers, defeating demons and re-recruiting your team

I hate it, I don't even know why, it just puts me off carrying on playing the game, I mean it could be taken out and it wouldn't really change the game at all!

Right, so, with that out the way, what part of some of your favourite games do you, the gamer dislike?

 

[SomethingUnrelated]

Errrr...

The repetetiveness of AC1. Everything else was great.

 

[The Real Sandman]

Force Unleashed was an overall damn good game.

But that Star Destroyer sequence...Dear God.

 

[Jamiemitsu]

The part when you fight The End in MGS3. Such a great battle, its just way to hard, especially when, after spending an hour fighting him, getting him down to 1/4 of his health, he fully heals himself.

I hear this a lot, but I don't understand it. It's a fun part of the game as far as I'm concerned. The transformations let you play around with some fun powers, you get a ton of stat boosts (a total of 21 points), and you get a look into the psyche of your companions...

My addition would be the damn turret-in-moving-vehicle section in Resident Evil 5. My pointing of the gun seems to have little or no impact on me hitting anything, enemies frequently move outside your line of sight and shoot you while being untouchable, and the game even throws quick time events at you for no apparent reason...

I don't like how the story ships me arounds so much in some JRPGs. Like I'm playing Luminous Arc for the DS right? Starts off I'm a witch hunter. Woo! Ok I get it. About in 20 minutes of play time POW I'm teaming up with them. Why the sudden change of heart?

 

[TaborMallory]

The campaign for Halo 1. Everything is good except for The Library. Good God, The Library... I hated that level.
Since I have the PC version, I modded that level to hell after I finished it legitimately.

The infamous QTE sequence in RE4, yeah, the one we're you're talking to Krauser durring acut-scene in which there like 8 (i think) "press a+b/x+y to not die" QTE's, and you had to watch the dialouge all over every time you failed... i think i could repeat the diagouge word for word after getting through it. (i guess i just suck at QTE's
I think it's stuff like this that has given QTE's a rough time.

 

[super_mumbles]

Half life 2

During the parts with the antlions everything up to that point had been good but for some reason I just didn't find it enjoyable in the slightest.

It picked up after that though, so it may just be the whole "you now have companions!" thing.

Oh, and as previously mentioned the repetitiveness of Assassins Creed 1. Every mission it was "climb up here, rescue these people, kill main guy", at one point my brother even asked me "Haven't you done this bit before?"

 

[GodofDisaster]

Quite a few of the puzzles in God of War. Mainly the hades spining spike puzzle or the floor spike puzzle from the second game.

I hated that part in Dragon Age: Origins.
Other than that, I can't think of any for games that I like.

 

[Goomboss]

i actually got sick of the pitt (fallout dlc) before it finished downloading lol,


but my real pain in the arse would the sphere quest in baldurs gate, the one where your a real low level and oh fucking 3 trolls, and i just dont seem to have any fire or acid spells on me, anf they always roll D6's the bastards and it pisses me off...vent the anger vent the anger....

 

[G1eet]

In Mass Effect:

When you get knocked down and can't get back up.
When you attempt to snipe a Krogan in the face and suddenly Wrex is blocking your sights.
Whenever Kaidan speaks.

In Wolverine: Uncaged-

Near the end of the Africa campaign, there's a puzzle with 3 weight-sensitive pillars. The timing of it just irked me to no end.

 

[The DSM]

On Disgaea: HoD there are about 3-4 REALLY hard maps, thye all require amazing stratigic planning and power leveling, there only difficult first run but some maps are just painful when your not 1000+

 

[Cargando]

Halo 3 had many parts like this, but the most memorable was the section 'Cortana'.

My word, that was frustrating.

 

[Spaceman_Spiff]

That mission in GTA4 where you have to pick up someone at a train station. The most pointless mission ever.

 

[Svenparty]

Timesplitters 3 but the Sniping missions=Awful

Half Life 2 Ravenholm(Though I enjoyed parts when the Grav Gum would pick up Sawblades)

...Also Tutorials are awful.

Yeah, I was about 12 when I played that, could never do it, got so frustrated at one point and I just stopped playing it. Went back about a month later and It said he died. Only realised what happened when I looked it up on the computer.

The campaign for Halo 1. Everything is good except for The Library. Good God, The Library... I hated that level.
Since I have the PC version, I modded that level to hell after I finished it legitimately.

So... Much... Flood...
