First one that comes to my mind is having to travel with an NPC and our walk/run speeds don’t match.

    @daredevil oh and also cutscenes every two minutes.
    I tried to replay Max Payne 3 recently and it’s intolerable. You never get time enough to get into any kind of flow. Even though the actual gameplay is fun, I put it down after an hour or so (and about thirty cutscenes up to that point). 😩

      I couldn’t agree more. There’s a time for story and exposition, and a time for gameplay. Developers who don’t let the player flow in either direction create a very jarring experience. It totally breaks the immersion.
