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

Oh god yes. I literally check every single urn in every dungeon, grab every mushroom or plant, check every shelf. It's like this goblin comes out of me playing TES

Yup, and unfortunately I ruin the game for myself by doing it. Why? Because I can fit within my encumbrance limit, so I'm just leaving money on the table if I leave it there.

It's completely illogical, but I think if I had a way to auto loot and just turn extra junk into cash, I'd do it. Whether that's with a mechanic like Dishonored has where loot turns into money, or a mechanic where I can hire someone to follow me to dungeons to loot for me doesn't really matter, I just want to essentially ignore the looting mechanic while still getting the benefit from it.
