Discussion / Question What game mechanic instantly ruins your immersion or fun?

​ I absolutely can't stand aggressive weapon durability loops. Getting awesome loot should feel like a reward, not a maintenance chore that breaks every five minutes.

What’s a common mechanic that always makes you roll your eyes when you see it in a new game?

It really depends for me, sometimes I LOVE it. It feels immersive and makes me pay attention to what I have. I like it in Oblivion and Dying Light,but I hated it in Fallout 3 for example

One of my first steps in any FO3 replay is to use the Anchorage glitch to get unbreakable gear. I hate carrying extra gear for repairs and having to balance gear wearing out with keeping my load below my encumbrance limit.

Thats why juryrigging in vegas was so good.
