One of my gripes is when the accuracy of the AI is not affected by soft visual obstructions. The AI is going to be tracking and firing at you just as accurately no matter what. It does not matter whether you are standing in a flat, open, sunny, bright desert; or if you are standing in a deep, dimly lit forest at dusk with thick mist and hiding behind some tall grass. This is why I prefer to fight during bright and sunny days if the game gives me the option, because things like foliage, glare, darkness, mist etc doesn't affect the AI's accuracy or tracking, yet it can massively impede a human's tracking and accuracy.

My single biggest pet peeve with a games gameplay is when it "makes" you lose, not as part of some story event, but because the enemy has an "instantly win the fight" button they just don't push most of the time. Like, I've been replaying Skyrim on legendary difficulty lately, and the way the dragons will just EXECUTE you from full health with their bite attack, locking you in place and disabling your controls to do so. It actually frustrates me more feeling like the enemy could instantly win at any point and the only reason I have a chance is they are choosing not to. This has been my weird little rant, thank you.

Then you have to ask him again, loading screen, cutscene, loading screen, THEN you can try someone else. Repeat this cycle ad nausea until you ask him again if he is the sergeant and then he’ll finally say yes. This quest is designed to take less than 10 minutes and can easily take 2 hours to complete.

For me, a lot of the reasons given here is why I cheat a lot in SP games - since I'm there to have fun, and not be frustrated by what I personally feel is either horrible programming, such as the AI's knowing your exact location at all times or AI's being given advantages over the player, such as in some of turn based city building games where the AI is able to level up the tech tree faster than you despite having *less* than you and thus being able to put down wonders and such before you even have a chance.

Under 'incorrect information', you forgot the particularly egregious X-COM. The game keeps track of how well you're doing in a mission, and then applies a multiplier to the stated hit chance. If you're doing well, it'll decrease you hit chance, and if you're doing poorly, it'll increase your crit chance to increase the likelihood of a 'clutch' shot. Half of you suddenly shouted either 'you don't understand statistics' or just 'get gud', but the other half recall that the devs *actually stated this is happening* and that the displayed hit chance is NOT the actual hit chance. Doing this makes the game less of a strategy game and more of a narrative, and I get that some people want that. I don't. If I absolutely nail the strategy in a strategy game, I'm not a fan of being punished for it.

Some were so aggressive with it that they attached adds to your controls in such a way as to make you attack yourself. In Super Double Dragon, the enemies didn't follow you after they set up a pincer, which was every fight, you literally controlled them too, so that they couldn't break formation. And if you hit an attack button during that, they would attack at the exact same time. So, if you punched one, the one behind you always punched you because it was connected to your attack buttons the whole time, not the one in front of you. If you blocked the one in front of you, your block connected to the one behind you, so it attacked at the exact same time you pressed the block button. You had to memorize the sequence and beat them all *before* they got the pincer formed. If you didn't, the game was impossible to beat until you finally memorized it. The level of rage is indescribable. (I used present tense because I played it recently on an emulator. Damn near ripped my computer in half)

I would argue that input reading in fighting games is worse than super armor. Like sure, the boss can power through your attacks every once in a while, but a boss that preemptively beats your move on frame 1 sucks more imo.

Okurma's Palace in Persona 5 You have a move called "all out attack" where if all the enemies are knocked down you can do the special attack to deal massive damage to all enemies So at the final boss of the palace you fight a seemingly endless swarm of super tanky enemies who are resistant to almost every element and your put on a 15 minute timer. Sounds like the perfect place for a all out attack right? WRONG!!! For no other reason than to make the boss more "challenging" the game takes away its most useful ability from you

The only time Ai cheating kinda works is in steallaris where you can set the game to where the Ai gets a passive bonus on resources slowly over the course of the game. This only works because the Ai is so inefficient with its resources otherwise (for example a pacifist Empire will value fleet production over resource gathering 9 times out of 10 and that odd 1 time would be during a war when it should be mass producing fleets)

The only way to fight back against ghosts, who are cursed beings, is to become cursed oneself." , also right after that you get another two behind a wall of the first staircase,like every noob i had a lot of problems in Dark Souls on my first playthrough but that one i found it easy because its a shinny right as you enter and you just had a new item so you probably will look on the inventory what you got and read it.

When they destroy my harvesters yet I can't do jack to theirs. And, especially in the earlier Command and Conquer games, in a skirmish match, I've been eliminated with high-tech units fast enough that I can't even get a mid-tech building or unit out due to build times and human reaction times. Or when the AI spams nuclear missiles or Particle Cannons or SCUD Storms or what have you in Generals... yeah, that's hell in its basest form. Especially on Brutal difficulties.

It was very frustrating. Its been in FIFA ever since unfortunately and they have banned threads on it for years, which is why I'm surprised you have found people talking about it still.

In Skyrim, you sneak up on a enemy and shoot two arrows in his back, the enemy run towards you and you only need to hit him once more, you pull the bow and *smoffs*, the arrow just stop just in front of you and drop to the ground; it's a invisible wall only affecting arrows and it is annoying, sometime you can open a door and see an enemy sitting in a chair, it is a straight and clear line to the target, but again the arrow just drop down at you feet and the enemy is alerted. It still easy to take out the enemy with a battle axe, but that hidden mechanics is the most annoying part of being an archer in Skyrim.

An add on about the Civilization games(at least the most recent one), the difficulty button basically just buffs ai units and cities. I'm pretty sure it also just allows the ai to KNOW where all your units are or what to do exactly without knowledge they should have.

For example having your rival skip the next round costs 8 stars but for some reason Sugiura keeps spamming that skill even though he has only 3 stars.

I think for me the worst are bosses who have attack patterns that they stick to for twenty tries, and then when you FINALLY got it down, on the very next try, they change up their pattern when they NEVER did before. It absolutely feels like the game intentionally dicking you over.

Like there's a world-threatening dragon monster punching my body on the ground and they neither attack, nor try to res me. They just stand around and back to the checkpoint you go.

I remember this especially in Kingdom Hearts. AI like that is designed to do that specifically for more of a challenge.

As far as I am aware the skeletons in the catacombs stay dead without the need of a divine weapon if the local necromancer is dead(the guy near the first catacomb bonfire is one). And i think the necromancers don't re-spawn.

I think its more of just the mechanics like with nito's boss fight were he constantly spawns and revives his minions its just really annoying to deal with. Edit: rewatched the section he just talks about how it doesn't tell you about stuff and that is just kinda annoying.

Yes! I've been watching for years and this is the first time I've seen my all time favorite game, Civilization V! Awesome!

You can see mimics breathing actually in dark souls, as well as some have lil chain things off the side

How about Twisted Metal 2? On it's hardest difficulty, not only do the opponents never run out of weapons or advanced attack bar (being repeat-iced by Mr. Slam until he gets close enough to pound you, for example) but sometimes they do some really hinky stuff... like they'll get rico'd off a building and then suddenly be behind you, returning the favor. My friends and I always wondered what button combo that move used.... we concluded the AI had an 'omnislash' button that just let them wreck everything. :P

Rubber Banding existed at least as early as RC Pro Am for the NES. The three CPU cars not only get a secret speed boost if you get ahead (and do not slow down if you're behind), but if you hit them with "too many" weapons during a race, they'll enter a kind of "zip mode". Their cars will literally have their engine noise replaced with a high pitched, cartoonish "zwoop" noise, and their speed is straight-up tripled.

In Sniper Elite V2, when the enemies notice you from 800 meters right at the moment you approach the window.

enemies being hidden around corners in From Software games always gets me. I’m pretty sure I died in every situation they did that in all their games lol

Honestly most of the enemies hiding you can see if you walk around and wait and look attentively. Ive beaten all 3 DS and their DLCs. Sure there's a lot of bullshit but it's not too bad. Only thing I hate about the Souls games is that getting to any boss is 10x harder than the actual boss fight. It was always such a let down...

This is where I got the phrase “Corners are Killers”

Forza Horizon goes way beyond, "Rubber banding." I've literally seen the AI cheating. Hitting jumps and watching the car ahead of me launch far off the track, only to float it's way back on course in midair.

Wich one? Because im playing horizon 4 and the graphics, optimization and colection of vehicles are perfect but u say the AI its unfair? Ok.. And talking about that, i really want to make a racing game man, u dont know how much, but a racing online game that is based on driving and racing with your car, a game with a good progression and let me tell u: i loved nfs underground 2, why no one makes games with great customization? I played the crew and i loved driving across the continent, just driving. Imagine a racing game with an online radio talking about events, imagine all kind of races from deportive events like gran turismo with bets to just street races, events with categories, events with the same car, the best driver wins. Only the events gives u real game money, so if u want to get money outside of events u will have to bet for yourself, or, imagine betting and being an spectator for your favorite driver, thats whats bringing expectation is. I would love to see a race on a city on night while raining with a red sky and lamborghinis diablo vt racing so i can see dr disrespect being a champion.. Haha.

I'm both amazed and absolutely in deep hatred over Forza's AI. I play FH4 mostly on Unbeatable and it can take itself a little too literally. Heard it's even worse in 5. On road and dirt races, not as much of a problem. Cross Country, however - fuck that. Fucking work of the devil. I often lower the difficulty for CC for the sake of my sanity.

@@abloodynova7625 well, something that happened to me in dirt races with the closest cars to +999 is that it is impossible to get the first place, on some races, u dont have enough acceleration, u cannot make the car stay on the ground so u have to brake a little but not the IA, they go straigh and fast as devil, but ok i taked off all the assist on the difficulty because i hate the lines of help, i hate any control i cant have of the car, i hate the automatic brake of some games and i hate any automatic correction of road that any assist can do, its like going on a train, i dont want that and the lines of help just break all the inmersion of the game and i play in first person too, but, believe me man.. forzas, gran turismo, asseto are games made for steering wheels because playing with a keyboard or joystick its fucking hard, u have to do millons of micro ajustments for any curve.

Speaking of the last one, I remember when playing Dragon's Dogma and there was a daggers skill that said that you would throw gunpowder and then set it on fire, but instead you just do two very fast stabs. Worst thing is, the input to use it was "hold triangle", so I tought I was like using a standard heavy attack instead of the skill, and I spent days trying to figure out what was I doing wrong
