6 Video Game Gimmicks That Went Away Too Soon (And 6 More That Need to Die)

the reason I am posting this is because some of these gimmiks are in KH (as mention in the link) such as UNUSABLE DOORS... they are pretty annoying and there are a damn lot of them in KHII...

I hate those things!!! you cant go into a game nowadays without being blocked from a place you should be able to go. perfect example, Sims 2: you've got your house, and your property, but if you try to stray too far from the house, you hit an invisible wall, and can't go further. at least have the sim you're controlling give you a message, such as "I don't really need anything over there" or something that would make SENSE!

I prefer unusable doors and such. I played a game once, cant remember the name, but it made finding people for quests and such a horrible nightmare. There were just large towns filled with empty/pointless houses.

 

I'll never forgive unusable doors unless it has the text "It's lock" or give some explanation why you can't go in. Just a simple sound of a door knob being turned but it being locked would work too.

 

Sure the game has limitations.. thats why we cant open the doors... but hills we cant climb D: <

Lets not forget indestructable objects.

I love unlimited item space. It is great. What is the point in forcing the gamer to go to the PC or to the closet to get all this stuff? It is boring.

The platforms in mid-air are odd, but by no means overstaying their welcome. Sure, if the game is realistic, but if it is a silly one like Mario, fire away.

Double jumps are fine. We are only using that single jump that every Link ought to have.

 

That's the last thing that should exist in KH is unlockable doors. I mean really...he's got a Keyblade that is supposed to unlock anything practically, right? Sora should so be able to tap those doors as he does chests with locks and the magical door opens.

The other one I found funny was that you could not seem to get over some areas even if in reality well...mundane people like us could climb over that fence or Sora who can fly should be able to go those couple inches higher to jump over a tree or bush... ah well. That list was great and so true. xD

 

i don't get why they hate double jumps.

 

That could be just as bad, Xaldin, because it gives the impression that at some point in the game that door will not be locked and you will be able to use it.

 

No, better text would be "I have no interest here".

 

very funny, i got to the item shop guy before i needed to stop reading on account of my laughter drawing the teachers attention......

but i do agree with the stupid doors bit.....why not just put a stupid sign up.....on the door or something....hve a sign nailed to it sying "do not enter" or something simple like that....team fortress 2 does it and im grateful kh2 does it, im sure its not that dificult......
