here we go...
Deadly Premonition
-the graphic fidelity is horrendous
-there is a bout 2, maybe 3, textures for every environment
-the character modeling is atrocious, as exhibited by feeling physically sick when York smiles
-the combat is awful, with there being about 5 enemies, and that's just appearance, as far as what the enemies actually do, there's 2, and one of them you, thankfully, only fight a handful of times
-the soundtrack has, maybe, 4 songs on it
-the ending seems to stretch out about 2 hours too long
-the driving sucks, the handling sucks, and the map is next to useless
-the auto-aim always goes straight for the crotch
-the dialogue is pretty bad
-the weapons work really weirdly (what's that? a point blank shotgun blast just knocks you down? oh, ok.)
-the item prices are outrageous, I mean, $30 for a lollipop!
-when you take a lot of damage you start limping, which really kills you sometimes
-many of the "puzzles" are totally unnecessary
-so many of the side missions are needlessly difficult to complete, especially when it involves driving places
-on that note, it's practically impossible to keep track of the side missions
- it blatantly rips off Twin Peaks at parts (Oh, hello Log Lady! Oh, i'm so sorry, I meant POT Lady)
- another note on the driving, the other car are completely immovable! you just impotently bounce off of them!
-health packs are notoriously difficult to get one's hands on
-the sound design is awful. for instance, EVERY door, not matter what it's made of, makes the exact some sound when you open it.
-the random quicktime events are really annoying
-the breath holding mechanic is next too useless
-the save system works really weird
-the time is real time, so if you have to wait 6 hours for something, you literally have to wait 6 hours for it.
-loading screens constantly tell me about Thomas' godly biscuits, but I can never manage to find them
-the map is WAY too big, and there's only one way to fast travel, but unless you have prior knowledge of it, you're screwed
-one character, for NO reason whatsoever, always rhymes, no matter how stupid he sounds trying to do it
In spite of all this, I still love this game to death, and will maintain, until my dying day, that it's one of the greatest games I've ever played
