I generally have a beef with games that will criticize the player for choices the game forces you to make. Imagine a game where you have to work with an NPC - an NPC that you have no doubt will betray you, but you have no choice to advance in the game except to cooperate. Surprise! The NPC betrays you. You are then chastised (often at length) by other NPCs for your folly. That just bugs me.
