The other thread about favorite mechanics is great, so let's also do the opposite: what are some of your most hated mechanics?

non-renewable consumable items.

using consumables is hard enough, but you're telling me there's a finite number of these? forget it.

only exception is rougelikes.

Yep. I never use consumables. Unless the game really pushes you to use them they feel like cheating.

they feel like cheating.

Or worthless. This item increases your dmg for 10 seconds.

Dude, 1 second is the animation alone and after consuming it, I need to use 3 skills to snapshot the dmg increase so effectively I have 4-5 seconds of actual usage.

Consumables are horrible as a system in general.
