Gaming

Three things that piss me off anytime it happens in games:

"They must have left in a hurry because the food is still warm". We get it, you're trying to set up some suspicious spooky things, but fucking hell like where did they go? If it was so sudden how come we never see anything huh? WHY ARE THEY ALWAYS ATTACKED IN THE MIDDLE OF DINNER

When a dialogue is happening and a character walks into it unannounced, offering some sassy idea. Like Mass Effect does this ALL THE TIME and once you notice it it's fucking obnoxious. It's like a live play and the actors are just waiting for their dialogue cues to enter the scene.

Skeletons absolutely everywhere for ambience, even though 99% of the time it's an abandoned tunnel or some bullshit. Fallout and Tomb Raider are pretty guilty, but at least Fallout makes little stories with the bodies. Tomb Raider just has gratuitous skulls in like the most random places that are supposedly secreted away for thousands of years, and you're telling me this whole hallway is just lined in haphazard skulls please HOW DID THEY GET THERE.
