fWhen I first was introduced to the fallout franchise i via fallout 2 i found the humble beginning to be very frustrating (bearing in mind this was prob my first time playing a crpg)
The geckos were hard to beat with my spear at the beginning level, the first gun (pipe gun?) was about as useful as slapping the enemies with your eyes closed and just ergh trying to build yourself up in getting better gear.

The most annoying thing and my true arch nemesis in Fallout is called crashing.

Other than that, my other one is deathclaws.

Cazadores. And the occasional, "Why does fast traveling to this place cause my computer to crash, but hours later, its okay to fast travel there but now i cant fast travel to this place..."

Oh and when a certain group of assassins come and follow you, then they will commence to kill everyone around you..."cool, great, i was gonna trade with that guy, whateves..."

The stupid clutter (plate, shot glass, darts, you name it) that's always between me and the precious object that I really need.

You can move it, you can be really cautious, you can have a solid wrist and a perfect aim, but that stupid piece of clutter will move just when you hit "E" and stay in your inventory until you are over encumbered, sometimes, even after that.

Yeah I agree crashing is always frustrating and its basically part of fallouts routine honestly. Its definitely some bs. I run all the fixes mods and anti crash stuff I can to counter it haha still doesn't always work though.

I think it just has to be invisible walls.    Like damm i hate those. They are always in the way when i try to climb rocks (especially at Quarry Junction).

A corrupted save file after 100+ hours

Oh my gosh I once lost a 500+ hour save file and nearly lost it. I had no idea how to cope with the anger.

And invisible walls are awful its just really bad when something looks escapable or able to be explored and then just nope. Very immersion breaking indeed.

Back when I had New Vegas for my PS3, the poor frame rate always had me seething. I'm still not sure if it was the PS3 port's fault or if I did something wrong... somewhere. But the game would lag like crazy. Explosion? More like lag-splosion. Fast travel? More like lag travel. Hit in the face by a deathclaw? More like hit in the face by a deathclaw... with lag. So glad I discovered the superiority of Fallout and TES games on PC.

When i had New Vegas on the XBOX360 the thing that really irritated me was the many invisible walls. It just made the game feel more ...restricted

I still remember getting stuck in an empty window in that half-buried ruin of a building between the Mojave Outpost and Nipton. The one with all the Jackals. Of course, no CASM on consoles, I had to load an autosave, which took me back to the Mojave Outpost.

Oh yeah autosave.....walking the wasteland and jumping on rock being stuck there... Entire Saturday was a waste of time...

The Metro Tunnels. I swear to God, I don't know what it is about them but I ALWAYS get lost. I don't even know how I do it. All I know is, I'm walking along one minute and the next I've gotten turned around and ended up back where I started. Or a marker will be miles away from where I thought it was. Or I'll think I'm heading in the right direction at last and then end up in a blocked tunnel.

The tunnels used to drive me utterly insane.

In my first playthrough of new vegas i tried to rush to vegas and got obliterated by Cazadors

This isn't even negotiable....Cazadors. Hate those things
