Unskippable cut scenes, especially before a boss. I want to play on hard difficulty, which means I WILL die to bosses. Do not force me to watch that shit 5+ times or I’m out like trout.
The Messenger does something similar but in a different way: dying summons a demon that eats any coins that the player collects for the next minute. I already suck, and now the game is punishing me by delaying upgrades.
Stat/EXP loss on death.

metroidvania boss walk backs are the worst kind of unskippable cutscene. Oh yeah I’d love to kill the same 3 ads and ride an elevator for 30 seconds
