What are your gaming pet peeves?

I remember when Napster was a thing. Since the songs were just 1's and 0's, they should belong to everybody. Problem is, that mentality bankrupts most artists.
 
What kind of system do we have when you buy something like a console and someone forbids you to mod it or fix it? If only governments could put an end to that kind of thing and have ownership be ownership by law
 
I am convinced that the FIFA games randomly vary their difficulty, regardless of settings. Even with a great squad, and plenty of experience playing the games, I will find a superb midfielder misplacing a pass just because, which sets up a chance for the opposing side. It grinds my gears!

What I love about Mario Kart games online is also what I sometimes loathe: the chaos. Skill at racing is less important than the items you get at any given time.
 
Not really a peeve, but some unrealistic game mechanics.

One moment your character is doing fine, performing the most astonishing acrobatics, even when you've only got 1 HP left, only to be dead the next moment upon receiving a minor pinprick.
Ah, this:

 
Showstopper bugs that are still in game months after release. Just encountered one while playing Dreamlight Valley the other night with Aladdin's final quest. None of what the quests needs you to do have ever been this problematic for me. Crafting a market stall and creating a market area like he asks players to do shouldn't be a difficult thing as it's part of the gameplay loop at this point, but for some reason, the game is not recognizing that I've put the some of the items down, therefore I can't complete the quest. So annoying! And if I google to try and find info, it all leads to a different earlier part of the quest that others are having issues with, but not this particular bug.
