LOSING ALL YOUR ABILITIES

For some reason, every so often we come across a game that figures it’ll be a good idea to – mid-game – take away either all of your hard-earned abilities, or at least your very best ones. We can see what those games are trying to do- challenging players to prove their skills with a crutch. And while that should be interesting, it rarely is. It’s usually just annoying.
