Does Wish count as a simple spell?  Because I've been tempted to simply wish doors away.

By "simple spells", they mean the Knock spell.

(There's no "Wish" spell in NWN.)

Some doors in NWN have "complicated locks" and are "warded against simple spells," so I must "find the proper key."

I have a key that opens any lock.

Most of the time, they're pretty good at handwaving this. But they really dropped the ball in this world.

You can shoot a bunch of arrows into an enemy's face in Skyrim and he doesn't seem to be impaired at all

In Minecraft, 64 roses is equivalent to 64 cubic metres of stone for the purposes of your own carrying capacity.

My barbarian can carry an entire armory in his backpack, but it's one little magic gem that's the straw that breaks the camel's back (that is, goes over his carrying capacity).

You can also shoot them in the face while sneaking, and they'll eventually think nothing's there if they don't find you.  Even though they still have a fucking arrow in their head.

I like how video game designers clearly overlook that the attire they give some female characters (such as Ivy from Soul Calibur) make fighting really burdensome.

Weird fantasy armour is a pet peeve for me. Some can be handwaved away such as weird looking but still kinda protective armour is just a style or magical enhancements helping to cover up the apparent problems but I still cringe when I see the basic female stripper-armour.

Besides if we are to believe that the battle bikini (tm) is as protective as the full suit of plate armour worn by the male warriors then why won't everyone use those same enchants to make their armour as small as possible?

It's the sunglasses that make the ensemble.

Skyrim again: Ride off on a stolen horse from a stable, past two guards and the carriage driver, but no one saw you actually steal her so it's okay.

I just realized...how the fuck are locked doors completely impassable?

Especially in a game where I have a magical ability to open any lock?!
