#QuestionOfTheDay what's a common thing in media (mechanic in a game, plot point, stage design, character type, trope, filmmaking technique/shot, writing style, etc etc etc) that you don't necessarily dislike but you hate when it's used unnecessarily/inappropriately/too often/etc

@ami_angelwings Interminably long intros in video games. Please, it’s been 45 minutes and I need some reassurance I won’t have to do this again. Just let me save.
@trashwizard I especially hate it when those intros involve you stuck in a "walk" animation and your aren't allowed to do anything else but walk along a preset path and look at what they tell you to look at, but YOU have to do this, it's not a cutscene, even though it could have been, at instead you're forced to just press forward while your character walks slower than anybody's ever walked in history
