Unskippable cutscenes.

There is no justifiable reason for this, the rest of the options, while some a complete pain, can make sense for various reasons.

Unskippable cutscenes. Half of those aren't even a big deal or are things I like.

Hard choice. I almost voted for unskippable cutscenes without reading further until I saw Always Online. That one still annoys me to this day and I have Xfinity's highest blast package.

For loading times, just slap a SSD in your system and you're good to go.

I chose always online single-player games, but unskippable cutscenes is a close second.

This. The only other one even close to being as bad is always online singleplayer, but let's be honest: if you can't afford to have an internet connection in your home in 2017, you probably shouldn't be spending a lot of money on game consoles either.

Higher difficulty locked with NG+
Button layout picture tutorials

Don't bother me at all
Loading times
Always Online

This. Some of the other ones are really bad but online single player wins easily. Nothing scummier than putting a game on literal life support.

For always online single player games just not have shit internet and blame the companies server every time and you're good to go.

Hmm. I guess I can understand the button layout one, but why do you like higher difficulty being locked behind newgame+?

Eh. I agree that it's nice to be rewarded with a better newgame+, but I don't think hard mode sky's be that reward. But to each their own

Diablo 3 requires an internet connection even if you play single player. If you have really bad internet, your single player game will lag. It's unacceptable.
