Top 10 Annoying Trends In Video Games

The Top Ten
1 Microtransactions
2 First-Person Shooters as far as the eye can see
3 Faux-retro games

Terraria, Super Meat Boy, Fez, Hotline Miami, Fenix Rage, Mercenary Kings, Catacomb Kids,
Intake, Bit Trip Runner, Dino Run 2, Donkey Me, Dyna Boy, Freedom Planet, Odallus, Rex Rocket,

Jesus Christ, does it ever end? Also, notice how literally every single one of these is an indie game.

4 Indie games just for the sake of indie games
5 The endless flood of Let's Players

I'm tired of boring YouTubers doing Minecraft. It used to be fun to watch, but for some reason it's just boring to me...Or maybe it IS. It's literally just the same game except wit different colors, textures, fonts, etc. Even traditionally Minecraft YouTubers like SSundee now only do the occasional Lucky Block video and mostly play fan-requested games.
TL;DR: Minecraft just lost its charm due to over-advertising.

6 Major League Gaming Stereotypes
7 Horror games that aren't that scary
8 Minecraft clones
9 Forced memes

Like "skooma." Not even funny, and people hate on you if you don't get it. Almost all video game memes are crap, and they are usually made by people who think the white Impact font with black border is still relevant.

To be honest, Undertale is practically MADE out of these (as is Smash Bros)

10 Online hackers

Mario Kart DS/Wii had some of the worst ones (as if MKDS's snaking trick wasn't bad enough)

The Contenders
11 Region-locking
12 Early Access
13 Unbalanced Online Multiplayer Games
14 Games designed just for the sake of being difficult

Like Unfair Mario. The first level had me almost throw my computer across the room.

Almost ever level made in Mario Maker

15 The endless stream of Super Mario 64 bloopers
16 Games Being Popularized by Pewdiepie
17 Games that aren't nearly as good as people make them out to be
18 Capcom milking every single series it has to death

Except their most important franchise, Mega Man

19 Little kids flooding the Call of Duty community
20 Fan bases

Sexualized characters and shipping especially.

21 Day-one DLC
22 On-disc DLC
23 Dumbed-down game mechanics
24 People hating on games just because they change up the formula of their respective franchises

Sonic Unleashed is a good example it a good game and does the werehog gameplay right
