Complain About What You Are Playing

Just a fun thread for System Wars. You can enjoy a game and still have a complaint. :)

Replaying Assassins Creed Black Flag.

Walking is way slow. Why cant I crouch and move as a decent speed when going from bush to bush? Running just gets your discovered.

Walking is fine when in crowds of people and tailing someone but in a stealth "sandbox" type area, its just silly.

Great game though.

Mass Effect: Andromeda

Why can't these people get a franchise right after decades of practice in the video game business. It feels wrong. Because you got people going "yeah the gameplay is cool".

It isn't. It really isn't. You can boost? **** off back to Titanfall where that stuff actually feels alright. The shooting, movement, clambering, where clipping goes mental, is all bottom tier garbage. It's done by a racist man with a manjaw fetish.

And yes, I like Cora.

Playing Nier Automata right now, and the performance/graphics are problematic at times. Otherwise, I have nothing else to complain about in the game. It's awesome baby!

Breath of the Wild.

Horizon Zero Dawn I'm still at the Tutorial section becuase of you.

Mass Effect Andromeda is still in the cellophane because of you.

Stop being so awesome

I'm playing too many awesome games at the same time, I can't focus :( I just started Nier today and I have like 5 games on standby.

Zelda: Cant throw away shields or bows.

SFV: Cant beat 100 in a row in extreme survival mode :(

Playing Assasin's Creed III on PC since it was free. Well, that's "trying to play" because I don't think it's a very good game. Don't know what people see on these games. Damn you Chaz for giving this game a 9/10 and giving me the idea of giving this a try. I'm tempted to just go and buy the season pass for Dark Souls III and start replaying it on Tuesday and forget about this game. Also tempted to just do the sorcerer, hard mode run I never did in Dragon's Dogma.

Dragon Age: Inquisition... ...nope, not doing this one. The list of things that annoy me would be too long.

Mass Effect 1 - I'm at the first Presidium bit. It's really tedious.

Titan Quest Anniversary Edition - enemies feel a bit spongey. I'm binging potions just to keep my melee character alive. Corner map is too small, central map just gets in the way. My clicking finger hurts.

Horizon Zero Dawn is too damned fun.

-Byshop

Playing Horizon. I wish Aloy could climb any ledges.

You can't or you don't want to?

@vespuche:

Playing Halo 5 again. Story mode is alright but there are only like, 2 Master Chief missions! WTF is up with that!? Multiplayer is fun though and really the only reason to come back to the game. So sad...

And what the **** is up with all the SPARTAN IV armor pieces?!!! They're all flamboyant as **** and look like something out of the fucking Power Rangers!! There's a helmet that LITERALLY looks just like a fucking unicorn! A UNICORN!!! Death match has fucking over shields too, as if killing another SPARTAN wasn't enough of a chore. Firefight is also basic as shit and repetitive.

Fun game though.

Mass Effect 1, constantly forget to manually save my game and the auto-saves come once every christmas. Also every enemy is a sponge makes me feel I'm playing Gears of War the RPG.

Just started Witcher 3 yesterday on PS4, this is like my 3rd Wrpg ever (I'm a weeb) and so far it seems like a very interesting game but the framerate tho, it's giving me headaches and eye strain pretty quick. And the lag really ruins the combat, not to mention that there is no weight to it either. You swing your sword and it hits the enemy and you're like, did I hit him or not goddammit?! I just don't feel like I'm in control when fighting and this is a major problem because I started on the highest difficulty and pretty much everything kills me on 3 hits and can't heal by meditating.

The people that played this game on PS4, how the hell did you do it? I have played many 30fps games in my life but there's definitely something very wrong with Witcher 3 on PS4, even with all the Blur effects turned off. I have played a bit of Horizon and the difference on performance is like night and day even tho both are 30 fps games.

edit: oh, and another thing is the parries. Every time a game has a parry system I know I'm gonna love it but on Witcher 3? Dawg as soon as you lock on onto an enemy the camera automatically centralizes right behind your back, so when you have the enemy in front it's really hard to see his animation in order to counter it. So you have to rely on the enemy flashing red but sometimes the enemy are red all the time! And not to mention there's like a 5 minutes lag between pressing the block button and Geralt actually upping the guard, so is just better to always roll all over the place because it has a lot of invincibility frames ala Dark Souls.

Im not playing it anymore, but can I just complain about Zelda?

ARGH fucking 60 dollars for these 4 small ass dungeons and cliche story... crappy filler content like korok seeds and fetch quests for rupees.

Oblivion has terrible facial animations

Riding a horse should be an exciting blood pumping experience, instead it's like moving a boat around

Even without any mods, your game will crash constantly

Daggerfall had branching story-line paths, this has none. It's completely linear

They kill Patrick Stewart within 5 minutes

It has a terrible interface designed for xbox

The world has no variation

You can't move 5 feet without something attacking you, making you not want to bother exploring

It has only a few voice actors for hundreds of characters

Oblivion Gates and Dungeons are boring

Every time you pass an Oblivion Gate the sky changes color for 4 minutes

The skills, creatures and enemies are boring

The lore books have interesting stories better than the main quest

Cities are not open, for console hardware

You cannot get away with murder unless it's quest specific

The game deals with difficulty by simply increasing HP and damage

You can only climb up hills with grass patches

Alchemy is boring

Many of the perk upgrades from leveling up are useless. As soon as you knock a weapon from an enemies hand they pick it up instantly

None of the main characters are black (Redguard)

The Oblivion plane is a rip off of Lord Of The Rings

The Cities have a population of 10

2 imps pour out the Oblivion gate, not very threatening

The DLC gives you homes with all the resources you want, ruining the point of the game

Horse Armor is now standard, and tame compared to today's marketing

Sean Bean dies

Mass effect Andromeda stupid puzzles

There's too much stuff that grinds my gears in Adromeda. So instead of complaining, i'll mention one positive: Liara's voice. Why is it that every other character (for now) is so boring to listen to that you want to skip their dialogue but whatever Liara's audio logs say, i just want to hear more?! Damn i miss the OG crew.....................

Horizon Zero Dawn - Never ending checklist of boring quests. Sure the battles are fun, but do I really need to go collect a hundred vessels, vantage points, and metal flowers that are completely showing on the map? So tedious. I'll have to use this as a filler game until the next big hit comes out.

@glez13: AC3 is frequently acknowledged as one of the worser AC games.

AC2 and Black Flag are my personal favorites. And are the only AC games I can really recommend to anyone.

--------------------------------

I still haven't been able to get the No Land Beyond sniper in Destiny. Its beyond annoying that I'm missing out on one of the most widely used primary guns in Destiny. But at least I got the Ice Breaker.

Just finished Ico last night- why is the character so hard to control? Why does the girl change directions suddenly when climbing a ladder? I think I lost 10 minutes of game time because of that. Why is the final boss so easy?

Halo MCC- why are you still semi-broken? Sometimes you get booted out of matches before they even start, or others do, which causes un-even teams from the start.

Working towards a 1 credit complete of Gradius V. This game unloads a dump truck of shit on you for making one mistake!

The game is bananas though and should be preserved in museums. Would recommend to anyone looking for a challenging and well designed game.

@drummerdave9099:

I was under the impression that Master Chief Collection was meant for the campaign modes. That's the only reason why I play it, at least.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Needless to say, I'm enjoying this game so far. Been waiting for such a long time to finally play it. Was waiting for a Wii U price drop that never came but did pick up a cheap Wii U on ebay with peripherals for all under $140.

1. What the **** is with these controls? It feels like a Nintendo DS game or PSP game that lacks a dedicated right analog button. Jesus fuckin' Christ, the Wii U was made with two analog sticks in mind! Make proper use of the camera with these two god damn sticks!

2. What the **** is with the button mappings? My god damn, there's so many menu's, useless button's that are mapped to useless things, and to top it off--what the **** is wrong with everything being assigned to the god damn X, Y, A, B button. Shit, we are playing a game that uses both analog sticks, while poorly implemented, most "simple" shit in battle should be done on the goddamn R, ZR, L, ZL buttons. Simple shit made complicated because the devs didn't know an easier way to implement one button for multiple things such as--Hold R for drawing weapons, Hold R again to put gun away. Jesus Christ, was that shit so hard? We don't need to have two different buttons for just doing this simple shit.

3. Not a Xenoblade problem but experienced on this game--**** THIS PRO CONTROLLER BULLSHIT. This layout is fuckin' horrible. Whoever decided to put both analog sticks at the top of the controller was a fuckin' idiot. Been a PS fan since its inception, never had a complaint. Been an Xbox owner--the controller felt right at home even with the asymmetrical sticks. However, this fuckin' Wii U Pro controller piece of shit is horribly designed. The damn XYAB buttons are awkwardly placed and my fingers cannot reach the two bottom without shifting my hand into an awkward position. **** this controller.

Damn CEMU is a pain to setup

*grumbles*

@cdragon_88: If you are talking about Xenoblade, not Xenoblade X, then it was made for the Wii, which did lack a second analog stick

Playing ME1, the fucking mako! Controls like absolute shit. I love the game though.

My bad... I meant you cant quick throw shields and bows like you can weapons. If you want to drop a shield or bow you need to do it through the inventory.

Not a deal breaker for this GOAT... but he asked me to complain, so I complained :P

Nah i'm good atm :)

Just fixed it LOL. Yes, "X".

I got nothing to complain about, sorry.

Breath of the Wild

Quit consuming my thoughts and making me want to keep playing you even though I already beat the end boss. I have other great games I need to play also.

ME: Andromeda. I'd need a novel.

I've finished Zelda: Breath of the Wild, but I still keep returning to it instead of moving on to Horizon and Grand Theft Auto 5. F*ck you Nintendo.

**** you, Breath of the Wild, for corrupting my imagination. I've been sleeping like shit since I bought you, because my mind doesn't want to stop thinking about you. I have two jobs and I need to be sleeping more so god damn you, you piece of shit.

@glez13: In my defense, I'm a stupid motherf*cker

Yeah it is also my problem

First world problems...

-Byshop

Halo 2 anniversary. The music is too amazing, it's distracting from the awesome gameplay I want to enjoy.

Kathy Rain: It's a point n click adventure game for starters, and the voice acting is bad.

Tearaway: The mechanics are dull as ****, it finds "inventive" ways to be dull as **** to play. Pretty fucking typical of media molecule and a shit load of sony first party games.

Mass Effect 1: egad that combat.

Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Way too many shrines in this game that got away without using a single shiekah slate.

Rainbow Six Siege:

"How the Fu** DID HE HIT A HEADSHOT FROM THERE FUUUUUUUU************"

Continues to play for another 6 hours

Breath of the Wild. The dungeons literally made me sad. For a game I'm enjoying this much by the time I beat the first one I was honestly in disbelief. It was the exact opposite of what I was hoping for.

I bought the maps that show all these checkpoints and just by looking at the map with these new 'points of interest' revealed I got a horrible deja vu Ubicrap feeling and couldn't find a way to get all this shit off my map. So I loaded an earlier save and just never bought those maps and completed the entire game without vessels, vantage points or metal flowers and loved it so 'do I really need go collect... etc' no, you don't, you really don't.

I am always amazed that people still think they have to do absolutely everything in open world games including boring stuff that is 100% optional.

FFVI Advance: You can't walk diagonally. Plus the DS Lite screen is tiny as I have been spoiled by bigger screens.

Saints Row 4 - Some awkward humor (hearing the VA's blatantly asking Kinzie if they "want to f***" is just... what the hell?)

Sleeping Dogs - Nightmare in Northpoint has it's fun points, but there is f*** all to do afterwards. At least there's some fun in arresting possessed civilians that attack if you've already beat Year of the Snake.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse - Why can I not heal my allies in story mode? Krillin keeps dying on me.

Fallout 4 - I appreciate that they kept the modding of weapons from New Vegas, but a little disappointed lore wise (especially in regards to who won the Battle in NV).

Smash Bros. 4 Wii U - Do I really got to go into this? I've said it many times (and I mean besides the guest star who must not be named).

Mega Man Legacy Collection - Okay, six NES game on 3DS, I understand, but on HD consoles? Capcom should've improved from Anniversary Collection and TAKEN notes from Rare Replay if need be.

Why can't the bad guys also use the Buzzer in Far Cry 4? I would've loved that so much.

Nioh right now. Yep, I know its hard. There are a few deaths that I did find to be, well, cheap. Also, some pretty samey-looking levels. That being said, really fun game.

@jg4xchamp: But don't you love the finicky cover system, and the game not registering your shots even when you hit enemies directly in Mass Effect? Lol but in all seriousness the mako is the worst part of the game. I'm playing it now via BC on my X1 and I love it. After playing the inferior Andromeda, this game is like a breath of fresh air.

Playing ME:A right now, facial animations are pretty terrible and character customization is ass but I still love the game.
