I love the original Hotline Miami but I’m not a big fan of the boss fights like the ones in Neighbors (Biker) and Deadline (Van Driver). I find it kind of slows down the game and limits the strategies you can take.
Another example would be Fallout 3. I find the tutorial section in Vault 101 can feel a bit long after a fifth run but maybe that’s because I was spoiled by Fallout New Vegas’ ability to run off in your own direction immediately after leaving Doc Mitchell’s house.
KOTOR 2 - Has quite a few pain points for me, usually when they make you swap characters, but by far the longest stretch that makes me reconsider replaying is the surface of Telos. It’s just a bore until you reach Atris and feels like it takes forever.
I actually like Pergaus outside of the T3 part though, which I guess makes me a KOTOR 2 heretic. The atmosphere and mystery is just fantastically done.
I loved peragus the first time through, but the more I replay it the more it’s just having to run around to all the terminals in the right order while being slowed down with the easy but tedious fights, esp with not a str or dex build and harder difficulty.
And that conversation with the hk is so annoying, like I know you’ll tell me the password, but it always takes me so much time to find the dialog path to get him to say it in the voice for some reason.
I really like the character swap sections though, especially the onderon ones. It adds more difficulty and makes party builds matter. Otherwise I feel like I just blow through everything with mc even solo
KOTOR 1 for me. Manaan. All of it. Literally the first thing to pop in my head.
It just feels so slow. Mostly because there’s so much walking back and forth and the seafloor segments are even slower in the high pressure suit.
