Drakensang/YMMV


 * Awesome but Impractical: Crossbows in the first game. They deals tons of damage, but they also need 4 turns in order to being recharged. If you have the "Trained Crossbowman" feat you need 2 turns, like a longbow.
 * Complete Monster:  Kaltenstein/Coldstone the wizard.
 * Demonic Spiders: Many monsters or enemies that can deal wounds or are totally immune to them, including Crypt Lices, Giant Crabs, Armored Skeletons, Ogres, Stone Golems, Flame Spirits, Grolm Ghosts and Harpies.
 * Disappointing Last Level: The scenario of the endgame in Dra Sa 1 has sadly a lot of bugs, consists only of Hack&Slay-gameplay and has A Winner Is You-ending.
 * Goddamn Bats: Giant amoebas (have many health points, takes a lot to die, regenerate health quickly and can stun your character), Wolfrats (attack en masse and can inflict poison and wounds), Goblins.
 * Italians Loves Drakensang: Both games are quite popular in Italy, considering that they were fully translated in italian with good voice acting to boot.
 * Rescued From the Scrappy Heap: Ancoron: he's extremely angsty, arrogant and obnoxious (though he usually apologies later). On the alpha side, he's also obscenely powerful with his trusty spear, and already knows all the spear techniques by the time you hire him.
 * The Scrappy: Prancelot. YMMV.
 * Scrappy Level: To get to Mother Ratinsky you have to fight through FIVE LEVELS full of those GODDAMN RATS.
 * Is actually a joke level, but that isn't made clear, and isn't done successfully.
 * Forget that crap. The Temple of Efferd in the sequel is quite a pain in the ass. Full of really powerful (and nasty) Giant Crabs, has a really hard puzzle in the middle and That One Boss at the bottom.
 * "Stop Having Fun!" Guys: There were several complaints by tabletop players that the developers didn't incorporate the rules one-on-one, but instead modified them so that they could work better for a video game. The devs told them that a game should be there to have fun playing it and pointed them to this video.
 * Surprisingly Improved Sequel: The sequel has full voice-over, uses quick travel points, less but more fleshed out companions and offers more alternate approaches to quests.
 * That One Boss: Mother Ratzinsky.  in T Ro T.
 * Kastan Gamblack is no joke either, especially for his flunkies. Ditto for
 * That One Level: Some area are quite difficult, including Traldar's castle (which is besieged by orcs and ogres), the stinky cavern where the Linnorm resides and Mount Drakensang.
