Examples of gameplay you think is a form of torture. Let's hear 'em!

All of XIII especially Snow's "Much appreciated!" -line

What a great idea to make the healing spell to a TANK CHARACTER be the most monotonous and annoying line in the entire game. Adding insult to injury you couldn't turn the horror off at all and it made you miss entirely the game's strongest point: a rocking battle theme that was lost under all the paper thin characters' repetitive sentence-long shouts.

In XIV it's a strong competition between the leve system, lack of an AH and the ability to teleport. I can't decide.
I think all other aspects have been getting better in some form or another and are tolerable but those features make me annoyed every time when they stomp on proper game design.

What do you expect dude, Snow is one of the most boring, obnoxious and one dimensional characters in the history of videogames. Every time he opens his mouth it's simply to spout some stupid tripe about friendship and being a hero.

Oh and Parley. Jesus Christ.

And that's why once I had the ability to choose who went into my party, Snow was never seen again.
