What's your pet peeve in your favorite video game? - eviltoast

Mine is the lag in Stellaris, and lack of options to let me impact it. Like let me disable the ability for the AI to make habitats FFS!

    Idk what id call my favorite but the game im currently playing is Borderlands 3 and the most annoying thing is how much spoken dialog there is. I just want to tell the npcs to shut up. Even with skipping the cut scenes there is still too much talking. The worst part is even if you walk away they still talk over the echonet. I just want to hear the badass music and guns and occasional quip from the enemies. I dont care about how much tyreen wants to suckle the vaults tits, or about her imaginary sub/dom fantasies about me.

      You could turn the dialogue audio off, I’d hope there’s a slider. If you’re on PC there’s actually a goddamn mod where you can press a button to skip the currently playing line of dialogue.

      I agree, though, there’s a lot of just waiting for the quest dialog to get it over with so you can get to the next objective. I really like BL3, but it does have a lot of caveats.

      Mine would be the fact that you can’t sort your inventory by highest sell price. I mean, come on, what were they thinking?!

          There aren’t many of them, that’s just one I remember seeing. I haven’t used it so I can’t vouch for it working, but it sounds like it’ll solve your problem

      God I feel this. The gameplay is so good but having to wait for the annoying characters to shutup is frustrating
