Any kind of "protect" or escost mission has to be the most painful mission type in all of games.
If the AI wasn't always 100% retarded, I could stomach them. But it is always horrible AI. Amazingly, the AI follower is always worse than the AI enemy. Garbage.
Been playing Fallout 4 lately and the Scribe missions are very painful with the slow arse scribe. Slow and incompetent. What developer has ever thought this was fun?

Instead of giving you a manual that shows the controls and all the "moves" or "combos" and lets you jump in, they spend the first 3 hours of the game teaching you how to play. They have to make sure that even Little Johnny Mongoloid can learn so they make you do trivial shite like crouch for a minute while walking to make sure you get it.

RE4 has the worst escort mission. Ashley is just awful. The Last of Us is basically one giant escort mission but to their credit Ellie's AI isn't completely retarded.
Speaking og Last of Us and pet peeves, I did a fairly thorough playthrough and finished the game with only thee trophies. There's way too many trophies for finding all the crap and doing other random things and not enough story related ones. The Borderlands games do a good job of about half storyline related and half doing other random stuff.

The new God of War could be considered an escort game but by the end of the game Atreus is extremely helpful in combat.

Hot keying a controller for a multiplayer game
People who invite other people over for Co-op or multiplayer games and play with a decked out character with endless mods and upgrades but you get a character with a pocket knife and an apple

When devs put in the stupid "you're drugged and the controls are all fricked up and you're going to stumble around with mushy controls for five minutes while the graphics are all blurry and we play creepy strange sounds" missions or levels.

Extremely helpful is being nice. He was such an animal towards the end for me.

Look up "Epic NPC Man" on youtube for an absolutely hilarious mockery of these tropes.

Mini Maps that are unreadable. GTA4's map was the absolute worst, conversely GTAV's map is without a doubt the best.
Also Forza Horizon 4's minimap. They changed the navigation route color to one that is difficult for colorblind people and it is SUPER hard for me. The game has colorblind options, but they work, however, they do nothing to the minimap.

Seriously awesome. It got to a point where I would make him shoot his ravens/wolves (depending on what I was doing) and I was basically untouchable.
