Tiny, insignificant details in games that really bother you

As much as my big bro loves the Hitman franchise, we always made bar scanner code jokes back when the first game released.

I actually knew people with barcode tatts in the 90s. Tacky.
Never mind getting close enough to even see the tattoo; how does a six-foot-tall completely bald dude go without being noticed so easily?
I'm still waiting for the mission where Agent 47 pretends to be a member of the Blue Man Group, just for the sheer absurdity of it.
Ok, this is pretty petty, but it kinda irks me that in Elden Ring, the upgrade materials are simply enumerated to denote their quality (Smithing Stone 1, Smithing Stone 2, etc.) and weren't given unique names. Maybe it's because I'm used to Dark Souls with the Titanite shards being either Shards, Large, Chunk, or Slab. Perhaps it's also that it confused me when I first started ER, and thought the different numbers I was getting were quantities as opposed to qualities. I mean, the game already has hundreds of items with often bizarre names; why did they give up creatively on [some of the] the most import resources in the game?
Well actually .... (pop a beard and glasses on us, we all look the same - the five ages of Walter White or something).
Hi-Fi Rush has Rhythm Master Mode. Hardest difficulty, where dropping to D-Rank is an automatic death....
Why? It's stupid and dumb. I think I will stick with Very Hard Mode for my NG+ run.

My guess is it's a take on the Must Style mode from DmC : DMC, though since raising your rank as high as S in Hi-Fi Rush is kind of a pain, and letting it drop to D is kinda hard except maybe right at the start of fights, they figured that way worked better than 'you can only damage enemies if your style rank is S'.
I noticed immediately (not the only thing and they took several inspirations from DmC 2013) when reading the description and seeing Serpahim17's walkthrough. Getting to S is usually not too bad when on a NG+, and having the modified chips where you can make your combos last longer. It becomes a problem in sections like the train stage or when enemies are out of reach and you have to spam Peppermint to keep your combo from degrading.
This should have been an optional difficulty modifier. You can only damage enemies at an A Rank or higher. I'll take that over the whole dying thing, because of my low ass grade.
My issue is that each level of Ancient type needs 12 fuggin pieces to a single Somber per level. I mean once you hunt down the bell bearings it’s not really an issue, but early on it’s unnecessarily restrictive.
In Super Mario 64 the Toads are transparent when you move away from them. What's up with that, are they ghosts or something? It's weird.
They're trapped in the walls by Bowser's magic. Same way Peach is inside the stained glass window.
The one you see from outside the building. The one she comes out of in the ending.
My guess is that's a justification for a hardware issue they couldn't solve in time, like the fog in Silent Hill. But it was considered 'canonical' enough that it was kept in the Nintendo DS remake.
I think it's just so they can have the toads be there to give you advice while also explaining why they're just standing around doing nothing when Bowser has taken over.
I always figured it was because they're lazy gits and even being opaque when they didn't have to be was more effort than they wanted to expend.

I really love Assassin's Creed Odyssey but aaaaaaaarrglargh.
The chest armors. Bronze. Iron. Whatever. They're... they're like skins on the models, they bend, strech, twist as the wearer moves while talking. It's just, eek. Nightmarish. Feverish. Lovecraftian. Nauseating. Wrong.
Don't look at the chest :
