What's a bad game design decision in a game you love? Something that compromises other parts of the game, or weakens the narrative, or is otherwise just really clumsy or awkward or out of place?

@starkatt Narrowing it down slightly, the design of the final puzzle doesn't respect my time. There's a lot more to it, but that's the biggest part. Any game that makes me sit and wait for forty-five minutes, during which I can take no action, is not well-designed by my standards, even if the theme of the game is one of mindfulness and observation.
