tutorial usually tells me the game was made for *******
It's amazing how many tutorials are "baby's first game." Also, just let us learn by doing. I hate when a game throws 10 info screens at you in 20 mins.

When everyone on an internet forum is hyping up a game from 2001 that has n64 release graphics and awful game play but they are all saying it's actually really good when it's not.

That's from the same idiot who reviewed Mass Effect, calling it Mass Defect and went on and on about problems he had. Turned out that this ****** did not know you can actually level up in that game.

Expecting game journalists to actually be good at playing games is racist and/or sexist

To his credit he never went that route. He even admitted that he played crap and it's all on him. Very different for example compared to the hilarious verge pc build.

Anime girls with that overly emotive annoying moeblob waifubait personality they almost all have. Grinds on my nerves immediately. 6 million JRPGs dropped due to this.

You should also read The Once And Future King. I really like the way T.H. White subverted Authurian legend with his progressive, homosexual politics and made it the de facto standard for every bit of Arthurian media that came after!

  • Painfully modern, out of place writing
  • Divershitty (especially black people) where it's out of place
  • Non-heterosexuality where it's out of place (I'd tolerate it in a brothel or as blackmail material)
  • Girlbossing/Karen behavior being rewarded
  • Atrocious UI or control schemes

there isnt really just one feature but if a game has no redeeming qualities or is just boring I certainly wont put up with online games which have rare drop loot chests where you have to buy the keys for in a cashshop.

And if they constantly take the player controls away.

Depends on how the transformed werewolf behaves. If he's a mindless killing machine, then no, it's not a furry. If he's participating in regular human behaviour (even if he's on guard duty), then it's a furry.

Lycanthropes are not furries. Sure, **** can make anything **** and gay but we shouldn’t let them have werewolves.

For me, there are a lot of things, but I cannot stand "girlbosses" even for a second.
If some female is in an authority position for no known reason and acts like a overbearing ****, I'm out.
