You do not need the wiki. I've played the game well enough without ever touching the wiki.
You're going to have to settle with the fact that you're going to have to enjoy the game for a longer period of time if you don't look up what someone else did before you.

Maybe I'm just weird, but I cannot remember what these individual sprite people like and dislike. Again, the intuitive ones I can do, but there's just no way I'm going to be keeping track of like 30 different character's individual tastes. If the game had a system that gave me like, a chart with every gift ive ever given someone and their reaction to it, I could work with that. I could reference what I've already done and use it. I don't want to take notes while I play my relaxing game. I'd really rather just check the wiki.

But on the subject of games requiring a wiki to even play, forget Minecraft. While in games like Stardew, trial and error is a feasible, more realistic option.
But you probably wont ever progress in Minecraft without looking up practically everything. There isn't time for trial and error. You starve, you have constant threats, and even if you do hide in the safety of a makeshift dirt bunker and never moving, good luck trying to figure out crafting for hours on your own.

there was an update a while ago that put a recipe book kinda thing in the crafting menu so at least there's that now but ya there's still a good amount that u'll need to somehow figure out on ur own or from someone else or by the wiki which i think is pretty silly

i mean how else is someone gonna figure out that to progress u need to stack a certain block a certain way and light it on fire i mean there's no real hint towards that in-game is there

What I hate is in RPGs where is there only one loving enemy that drops a specific item, but it like .99% chance it will ever drop it

heavy catering to casuals and then selling your game like its the second coming of competitive christ

uhh microtransactions

lazy devs

when npcs talk like robots

I also hate when an "adult" game appeals to 12 year olds, that's always pretty stuffty, especially on multiplayer games

what
if ur talking about the victory pose they changed they were already thinking about changing it anyways cus it didn't quite fit her character and the main problem with it was that it didn't quite fit her character

i thought it fit her hyper personality well. idk why everybody was in a fuss about it. it wasn't even loveual; tracer has zero ass to display.

but when it's microtransactions in a single player game for guns/ammo, that's a bit silly (that new deus ex or whatever)

Yo have you ever played a game and the grenades were thrown by AI that miraculously landed right next to you during the middle of a firefight?
That and ai rubberbanding in racing games gets me absolutely LIVID.
Excessive grinding in any video game
Escort Missions................
Lack of checkpoints
A lot of checkpoints
When you can't hit stuff at a certain distance with a gun yet the AI can hit you with pinpoint accuracy each time (maybe i just suck at shooters)
Shotguns that are just loving inaccurate within 5 feeet
any of those games that are meant to be "retro" but look like a pixelated mess
