LOL
First let's be clear about one thing. I don't care about MMOs, I'm emotinally attached to singleplayer games. So for respawns and DLC in MMOs I'm not hating nor loving it. I'm indiferent as I'm not the audience. About those, people who do play MMOs could have an attitude towards, but me…. It's like a mosquito in your room. I dunno if it bugs you nor care for it.
On singleplayers…
It's not I hate respawns, I just think that endless respawns design is something that should be removed from modern games. It was justified in stone age on consoles where hardware couldn't "remember" all things you killed exactly so the only way to design games on inferior hardware was to have them alive and kicking for eternity. Today, when your hard drive can remember each ant you stpped on during your lifetime… Unstoppable respawning is killing games, not enriching the experience.
So if I don't really hate respawns, but do dislike them so much… You should have put up there in the poll "developers who make endless trashmob grinders" instead of respawns. Those respawns didn't appear out of nowhere in a game. Developers made a game that contains them. You won't hate a car, right? But it's constructor is another thing.
That leaves DLC. And I do I hate DLC, passionately.
Just don't every kind of DLC. What we called expansions in the past, that kind of DLC I don't hate, in fact I always hope we get such DLC.
I also don't hate standalone DLC or spinoff DLC. Again, I hope we get more of such stuff.
The DLC I hate are cutout base game materials with sole reason to be sold separately, items and itempacks that change game balance and similar crap.
But what I hate the most and you left out from the poll? More than grinding designers and types of DLC that should not exist?
Season Pass. It's the scam of the century. And currently the only legal one. You're paying for nothing to filthy rich companies. Do you throw cash to your government too? Instead of paying exact sum for taxes, do you add 20 bucks more, as a token of good will or something that's - nothing?
I just can't believe people are throwing cash to those filthy rich modern beggars.
And I hate it more than anything.
Hopefully I've explained it. So no need for a poll.
