Even if you don't think QTEs and the like are fundamentally terrible, can we at least agree that this shit needs to stop? It doesn't even make any sense.

I remember playing the game and betting this shit in one go.
Is that rope pull really that hard or are many people just really shit at repeated button presses.
>never play any game that makes you waggle the stick back and forth in hard mode so I don't break my controller

The final boss on Silent Hill Homecoming had a CLICK TO SURVIVE moment and I couldn't fucking clear it no matter how fast I clicked..
Eventually I stopped and clicked twice a second or so and cleared it. Going too fast meant the game couldn't keep up and read no inputs
>mashing has a weird hard limit so mashing it at a godlike speed is no faster than doing it a moderate pace
>There's a QTE that will make you game over and have to fight a terrible boss from scratch if you miss it
>There isn't even a fucking prompt
FUCK YOU ITAGAKI!
