Recently I've played dead space and some other survival horror games like Alien Isolation, and just about every single time you see someone in there, they're somehow invincible. Like, the fuck, that fat idiot inside that VIP Area there has somehow managed to lock himself in that room for what, weeks? Months? And somehow never did any of the necromorphs even notice him? And that crazy scientist guy? He can just run around in the ship? And what about alien? The medic dude, like, there's a vent right in the room next to him. And he has a broken leg, so the alien can even smell his blood. Also, what about the marshal? Well, thats kinda fair game, he has an effective weapon after all.

I'd add a variant on this:

Games where you spend hours unlocking death traps in tombs that haven't been opened in 500 to 1,000 years only to find the mercenary opposition has already beaten you inside.

Looking at you Uncharted, Tomb Raider, Prince of Persia, etc.
