Graphics Pet Peeve

Canned animations and shadows. Honestly, Human Revolution's body animations make me physically ill.

*ding* *ding*

"Rather then have all the animations flow smoothly one to the next, lets have all the characters randomly spaz out!"

Ugh.

AC 3 has incredibly done facial animations, but once again taking two steps back for every step forward, the eyes of each character for some reason seem to be hyper-reflective at times, giving their eyes the appearance of animated marbles.

Other than that, aliasing (btw sometimes you get alias on the shader reflections, even with AA on, because it's now at a poligon edge) and horrible pixelated shadows.

That's why you go completely retarded overkill on it and use SSAA for everything to brute force away ALL the aliasing. Fuck this shit. I'm rendering everything at 3840x2400 (or whatever ends up being necessary/won't set my computer on fire) and scaling it back down to my native resolution. Heh.

Lack of Colourblind options. It seems like almost no games have them so it's made it a necessity to live with it but it really does ruin so many games when I can't actually see what i'm supposed to be doing.

It's not like they have any color to being with. *badump tish*

My biggest peeve would be FPS drops or low FPS in general. For some games it's okay, but anything with action I like 60FPS. It's so much smoother.
