I made it all the way to Nito once, and it took me like two and a half hours just to make my way down. By the time I actually got to him, I was in no condition to fight, so I left. I went through the Demon Ruins and Lost Izalith, and stumbled upon the Sunlight Maggot helmet.
I walked back down to Nito and killed him in all of thirty minutes. Not only could I see the path, I could see shortcuts and, thank Christ, a second bonfire.
I hate most anything in Assassin's Creed that isn't running around. I hated the stupid tower-defense shit, I hated the stupid boat battles.
Don't worry, we know how good it is. The others will just miss out. We know how amazingly awesome that atmosphere is.Soviet Heavy said:
OT: Level 3 of Star Wars Dark Forces. Holy shit, it has to be the worst sewer level ever. And the trash squids! Nothing but jump scare monsters!
Yup, this is probably mine. I love DA:O to bits, I've played through it with all the DLC and the expansion multiple times... but when I realize the Fade is coming up I kind of die a little inside. It's ultimately just far too long a section. It probably takes less time to complete the rest of the Mage's Tower than it does to complete the Fade, especially if you're a completion-ist like me - all those +1 stats are such a pain in the ass to find. Plus all the puzzles aren't challenging, they're more like annoying obstacles opposed to fun challenges.shrekfan246 said:
At least it's kind of fun to run about as a mouse.
A couple little parts of Kingdom Hearts 1, mostly the part in atlantica where you need to wait for the randomly generated dolphin to appear so you can get to the last boss of the level.
Also, the parts in caves in the original pokemon games... and ice areas... god damn I hate pokemons puzzles. I love them, cause they offer something different from the main game but I still kind of hate them.

Oblivion: Main quest- meeting in the sewers put me off from doing main quest for the first time.
Last battle scenes from AC1- those didn't happen.
chasing sequences in the first spiderman game.
Deep roads in Dragon Age springs to mind too.
Strategy games where you have to protect X for Y amount of time.

I hear this a lot is there more than one instance of it? I am up to the last dark purveyor and have only played this game once and must have got lucky I had more trouble with the second basketball game and especially the last game in the videogame arcade place where you have to make your way up the screen not touching anything as its instant death damn that pissed me off.Another said:
Final bosses of almost all fighting games in existence but especially Seth and Alpha 152 from SSF4 and DOA4 oh and the annoying one from KOF XIII is in there as well these pretty much ruined the singleplayer for me.
The bike level in battletoads loved the first two levels but damn that bike level kills the game dead I think I only ever got past it once.
QTE in god of war and its sequels just completely wore me down it seemed to kill any enemy I had to do another frikkin qte and dont mess em up on the bosses or you will be punished hard, didnt finish GOW 2 until the 3rd one came out because of it.
The flood in Halo 2 its not really a section but there inclusion was the reason I never replayed the campaign just cant stand fighting them.
Endurance race sections in Burnout 3 the rubber banding AI is complete bullshit here completely broke the game for me how can I get overtaken by a car I smashed 2 seconds ago when I have boost on and am going top speed on a straight, yeah never played the game after that.
The parts in Atlantica in Kingdom Hearts 2. At least in the first game it was fun and there was proper gameplay and fighting, and the underwater fighting was a nice change of pace and gave a new dimension to the gameplay. But in the second game, what do we get? A fucking karaoke contest between Ariel and Sora. Rhythm games. If I wanted to play that I'd get Guitar Hero or Rock Band, which have the added advantage of actually having fun and enjoyable songs in them...
Also, I actually loved The Library in Halo. And Cortana in Halo 3. Those missions on Legendary mode, for me, are the true test of a gamer's skill at Halo - and I aced them both. Hell yeah.

Apart from what has been mentioned already:
- The shout-people-to-death section in Condemned 2. Give me back my melee combat.
- Mexico in Red Dead Redemption. It dragged on waaay toooo looong.
- The gunfights in Sleeping Dogs. Stick to melee combat please.
- Hydro in TF2. Goddamn that map.
- The backtracking sections in Borderlands 2. Pretty annoying.
- Getting the keys in Metroid Prime 1 and 2. Also pretty annoying.

As someone who raised turtling to an art those are the few missions I actually excell at.Mordekaien said:
Any part of any game where I have to escort someone. I still do not understand how game developers still think escorting dipshit NPC's is fun
Baldur's Gate 2 - The starting dungeon.
By Moradin's Hammer I'm glad the Dungeon Be Gone mod exists.

This. Oh so very much this. Trudging through endless dull caverns in the obligatory dwarf section - which happens to be the least inspired of all fantasy tropes - only to discover... yet more endless dull caverns. And yet more.OniaPL said:
I'm gonna go ahead and say it... Even the fucking Fade is way better than this.
Assassins Creed games: Walk for five seconds, cut-scene, get another five seconds of walking, cut-scene.
I liked them too. I really do not see why people don't. Halo has checkpoints fairly often, so it's not like you ever have to redo more than five minutes if you fail anyway.Trivun said:
100 times this and a nightmare on Ranger Hardcore, manage to gett past that part but hell it was difficult.Packie_J said:
Captcha: bigger in texas, no those creatures where big and dangerous enough.
side quests in paper mario TTYD.
you can only do one at a time, and if you want to change you have to pay a fair amount of money. the side quests themselves are all exactly the same thing: 'go over their and fetch something for me', or 'can you go speak to this person'. why don't they make me kill things? that would've been fun! it wouldn't be so bad if you could do them all at once, at least then there wouldn't be excessive backtracking. its not like the rewards for them are great either, usually its either a small amount of money or a worthless item i can buy from any shop. give me something useful like a badge or something!
basically, don't bother with the side quests.

i'd say that it is one of the best parts of this game in particular.GZGoten said:
Heavy Rain, That section as Madison where you have to help a limping Ethan escape the Cops.
