discussion What's your least favorite minigame or part of a game?

[Bloodhound22]

Sandbox and repeated tasks, a lot of clicking for the right time and stats and so on

Certain games that ask you general questions like who was the 3rd president of USA. I hate it

Real. Idk what dev's are smoking putting that into games.

"hacking" minigames, just skip it if you're going to make trash. wdym that completing puzzles are not how hacking works?

I loved the fighting mini game in Eiyuu Senki

 

[Liger21]

the side scrollers where you have to lose to see any scenes

Press button rapidly games are terrible but any mini-game that takes place during a sex scene is a warcrime. Like bro, I need my hands for other things during those scenes.

Sliding Puzzle Minigame

 

[pervy_phoenix69]

the skipable minigame is my alltime favorite

Sandboxes are absolutely miserable so are all of the unnecessary mini games that are there just for the sake of it.
I also dislike/hate it when devs give completely unnecessary single choice like "Open the Door"/"Enter the room", they're called choices for a reason.

Games (sandbox especially) where progressing the story requires pointlessly difficult click-points. "Click the whatever" and if you don't know where it is, you're going to be searching for a long time. Or the games don't tell you what you need to do in order to trigger events. Time limits to click something or require a reaction that are super quick will also get old fast. The moment I get frustrated, the game gets deleted. I've only got 1 arm most of the time, damn.

Most of the mini-games in Being a Dik

the fighting one during almost every free roam, literally broke me haha

 

[User_31927]

the english tests in being a dik are pretty shitty when the guide is not out yet after an update.
im not a native english speaker and have a hard time to solve them.

I hate minigames in general. They break the game flow and add in best cases useless elements and in worst cases useless frustrations.

 

[sbradbury28]

unskippable parts, final fantasy 7 onwards not having a card game haha, 8 + 9's card game is one of the best things about it

 

[Seo In-guk]

Sandbox because there are no guides or it is not understood and
RPG because very slow and boring

 

[User_101810]

They all suck and they all add zero value to the gaming experience

 

[eezergoode]

I hate mini-games, unless it is 5 card draw strip poker. Mainly because I actually like that game IRL.

 

[MattShizzle]

Any minigames at all are bad. Hate them. Grinding is also awful.
