I can agree on the random encounters bit. I much prefer being able to see the monsters walking around than then just randomly appearing.But I'll have to disagree on the cutscenes part. Part of the reason I play games is to experience the story, and you miss a lot if you skip cutscenes.I freakin HATE random encounters. Then there's the level grind...so bad. I would also like to be able to fast-forward cutscenes.
What are you sick of seeing in video games?

The constant runs of bad luck for you and good luck for the console. IE You don't get any crits in a fight and the mob hits you for 3 in a row.ANY sports based game. If you're going to play a sport grab some friends and go play it don't sit on your ever expanding butt and play a game of the sport.People who take PVP to seriously. PVP is not the end all and be all of a game.

I am sick and tired of Resident Evil's "Ink Ribbon" system of saving. I like to save whenever and wherever I want, as many times as I want. That particular system ruins some of the game for me and makes me play so unnecessarily cautiously to the point where it's not fun. It's always good to save right before and right after a boss, but that game doesn't always allow that.Another thing I hate is perfect CPU AIs. Take the game "Reversi" for example. The computer is usually always just godly and it's nearly impossible to beat it. It just knows and predicts your every move to crush you game after game.

I am definitely sick of seeing characters keep on running into the walls... go on, try it out. Does your favourite character keep on running into the wall? Me and my brother always do that... we'll just keep running at the wall... ha ha

Those Invisible video game borders that come out in really strange places.Here's an example, "Hey! There's that enemy over there! Let me kill it." You run to it and suddenly, FORCE FIELD OF DOOM.I really hate those things.

I hate secrets in games that require the player to do some tasks which make no sense at all. Most of these secrets provide absolutely no hint of existing and have the most absurd requirements to unlock, players will have to either stumble onto them based on pure dumb luck or give up their pride and look at a guide. For example, opening the treaure chests in one area completely negates the possibility of getting an item 20 hours later in the game. A secret switch or two is alright, maybe some fake walls, but preventing a player from following natural RPG instincts is just plain wrong.

Random battles, they're so outdated. A shot of every character before every battle in JRPGs.

Stuff in VGs I am sick of:1. Extremely frequent random battle encounters in RPGs aka Final Fantasy battle enounters.2. Watered down gameplay.This is stuff like setting the bar lower to make games easier for kids like how they have changed the item system in Mario Kart Wii from past games.Also stuff like how games nowadays are way to easy and if there is any kind of difficulty setting to be had it often makes the game unwinnable because it pushes to the opposite extreme.Even worse is like the poor quality of games on the Wii Vs. the same game on the PS3.3. Poor Voice Acting talent.4. Games for casual players supercedeing games for hardcore players.Nintendo, I am looking at you.5. I am extremely tired of these movie tie in games. They aren't so much a game as they are a cheap way to get parents to buy their kids a bad game because they go see the next 3D cartoon movie.6. Special features that only work on some consoles, but not others, that is if the game is released for more than one console.7. All the kiddy games comming out for the Wii. If it has a child proof parental system why make a big deal about mature games comming out for the console? Its absurd if you ask me.8. New Stupid Wii accesories.The wii will, does it do anything? NO. Is it just a hollow shell that you slide your wii-mote into, YES.The wii zaper, does it do anything? NO. Is it just a gun shaped shell you connect your wii-mote and nunchuk too? YESThe wii tennis racket, baseball bat, golf club, light saber, sword, clip on attachments serve no purpose to playing the game either.The Wii Vitality Sensor... wait.... WTF?!(although the Wii Motion Plus seems cool, it should have been built into the original Wii Remote in the first place! >
)9. Over priced downloadable games.So we bought them the first timwe for our consoles, now we gotta buy them again?!?! WTF man! And whats this 10 dollars crap and if my console tears up I can't get it back for free! That's just messed up man!10. And finally who could forget the god awful burger king games. Why play a game like God of War when I could be walking around giving people hamburgers in the real life burgerking the VG.

The things I hate most in a game is bad graphics, bad controls, and finally bad storyline. These just really annoy me.

I need a good storyline, and lately many storylines have been very disappointing in that they TRY to make it shocking or unusual and of course, when everyone tries to be unusual EVERYONE ENDS UP BEING THE SAME. and that is really tiring. plot twists need to be twists to be interesting.

-i've always hated escort missions especially when your escort is stupid enough (like always) to stray and get killed or whatsoever -i don't mind freeroaming in fields but if theres nothing to see any attractions well its just boring -random encounters -old retro style minigames which they put in there to make the game longer (idk if there are any if there isnt then disregard this) ,_,

I hate games that don't make sense. You just wander around being all like "maybe if I hit this tree with a hammer the switch will be triggered and the door will open".I don't like using player's guides, EVER. they cheapen it.Oh and also escort missions, hate that crap too.
