What are your gaming pet peeves?

And SBMM compensates for that. You don't have to face the Old Guard until you're ready.One of the reasons I steer away from online playing. Getting absolutely crushed by the old guard that have been playing for years.
While not correct the quote "if there is no ownership then piracy is not stealing" but yes that's wrong in the current legal framework
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.

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.
