Game timers. I want to screw around on my time. The more time-based a game becomes, the less I enjoy it.

Timers just really stress me out for some reason. Give me more time damn it.

Yes! I remember that I could not really enjoy fallout 1 because of the 150 in-game days time limit to get the water chip...

Fucking time trials man

This!

There's not much else in gaming that makes my blood boil as much as being rushed.. especially in single player games. I'm usually playing to relax so please don't stress me out.
