biostem Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) One thing that really bugs me is when a video game - any video game, has these annoying/time wasting animations or cut scenes that you must sit through and cannot skip. For instance, if I want to enter a door in CoH, but another player or NPC has opened the door, you have to sit there and wait for the door opening & closing animation, before you can go through, and heaven help you if you happen to click on said door during that time frame! 😣 Edited July 15, 2020 by biostem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was born and raised on the east coast (USA), but moved to the midwest a couple of decades ago. The first week I was here, I went to the grocery store and the cashier asked me: "Do you want your pop in a sack?" I replied: "No, but I do want my soda in a bag." (What does my father have to do with this?) 2 @Rathstar Energy/Energy Blaster (50+3) on Everlasting Energy/Temporal Blaster (50+3) on Excelsior Energy/Willpower Sentinel (50+3) on Indomitable Energy/Energy Sentinel (50+1) on Torchbearer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
