** Thinks that being forced to take damage, from falls or otherwise, shouldn't be a thing, and cites this as one of the main reasons why he dislikes the design of Old Iron Keep from Dark Souls 2, as it requires the player to take a lot of damage from lava to get to certain items, meaning the character will either die or will need extremely high fire resistance to stay alive.

Added DiffLines:

* FakeDifficulty: Discussed. He posits that simply offering an easy, normal, and hard mode, and simply upping the numbers on hp and damage is a lazy and uninteresting way of raising difficulty (which is also the reason why he doesn't like the Calamity Ring from Dark Souls 1). He also feels that increased difficulty should also entail increased rewards for players, like better item drops, more money, etc.

Added DiffLines:

* ScrappyMechanic: Over the years he's mentioned a couple:
**He dislikes having to put points into luck stats to increase drop rates. He says that he finds it much more interesting and fun to have to beat tough enemies or take on some other kind of challenge to get drops.

* SoOkayItsAverage: His overall opinion on VideoGame/KingdomsofAmalur. He states that the game is fun, but is far too easy, even on the highest difficulty with a SelfImposedChallenge, and that the art direction and story are uninspired, to the point where he couldn't recommend that people interested in it buy it at full price.
