Aaah, but which is WORSE!!

IMO, it's tutorials.
I once had to reset my WarioWare DIY cart, and it was absolute bloody murder having to go through all those fucking tutorials again.

Unskippable anything is bad. I don't mind watching tutorials, cut-scenes or any of it the first time I play. But on repeat plays it's an utter ballache when you just want to get on with it.

I said Tutorials too, having to pick from the three.

You can ignore intros and cut-scenes but if a game forces you to play through the tutorial every time you restart it... Grrrrrrrr!!!!

Inserts Bloodborne into PS4.

PS4 firmware needs updating. Do the gubbins and wait 3minutes.

PS4 returns. PS+ about to expire. Pay us £40 (or get £5 cheaper from CD Keys ) - few minutes to sort and enter.

Go back to PS4.

PS+ games about to disappear. Grab them before they go. Another few minutes.

Bloodborne starts. Needs to update.

Update v1.09. 9.3GB. Please wait 87minutes.

9 point fucking 3 GIGABYTES. 9.3. That's twice as much as a blu-ray holds. That's not an update, or even a patch. That's the WHOLE FUCKING GAME and then some. What was on the disc? Fresh air?

It certainly wasn't fresh air. It was old, outdated air, in need of an update!
"Please Wait.. Updating Air fan."

(Pssst, DVD.. BluRay is at minimum, 25Gb)

Err.. yeah. That's what I meant!

|edit| BTW - It took more time to update and install the game than I actually had to play it :/

Oh, well there's always tomorrow...
