Because it keeps you from playing the game, just like fucking QTE shit.

freeze yourself irl and you'll see

is that cat ok

it disrespects time and wastes it

Being frozen is fine because you're usually given a fairly clear indicator of when you won't be so you can put your feet up until the debuff has worn off.
Getting staggered is the problem, especially in older games with awful animation.

That's not permenant level drain.

He's fine. Just got a thaw him out like Captain America.

You are slowed and can't evade ohk hits.

- 1 rabies carrier

That's not permanent subscription time drain.

>Those JUST eyes

Just hibernating. Alligators do that when lakes freeze.

take pokemon for instance
>potentially broken since afflicted pokemon can not do anything
>no reliable way to proc it, relying on 10% chance on ice moves
>even when it procs it can useless if the enemy thaws on the first turn (either automatically or through a fire move)
>on the other hand it may last indefenitely granting free turns
>to make matters worse the only immune type, ice, is so shit defensively that even if it were useful nobody would use them anyway
the only good thing ice types have going for it alolan ninetales snow warning + aurora veil combo. all else can be done equally or better by other types

Not:
>Confuse
>Curse
>That user who correctly pointed out level drain
>Anything more lethal out of battle than in it.
>Anything that is likely to make you inevitably dead before it actually hits. This does not include anything that can actually be cured, just anything that means at a certain point you may as well put the controller/keyboard down and wait for death.

Shin Megami Tensei has taught me that charm is the gayest status ailment in the history of video games. Nothing can possibly be gayer than having an ally heal the enemy while fucking you up simultaneously. I don't care what anyone says, charm is the absolute fucking worst.

Special shout out to Confusion, the second gayest status ailment in video game history.

It isn't.
Diamondized is the worst status debuff.

Being interrupted is annoying. On the other hand it doesn't last very long and stickwagglan makes it even shorter, so it's nowhere near as bad as paralysis which lasts indefinitely unless an item or a spell removes it WHICH YOU CAN'T USE BECAUSE YOU'RE PARALYZED. Can't even use a damn teleport item to go back to town and get it cured. And who's the happiest paralyze spammer? The stupid flowers which also inflict indefinite duration poison. Have fun running back to the zone entrance while your HP is ticking down and there's nothing you can do about it. Whoever decided to screw over organics like this is an evil bastard. The silicon equivalent, shorted, only does stun procs and wears away on its own so what the hell.

Special shout out to Granblue, where confused characters do defense ignoring everything piercing plain damage for some reason and are more likely to hit enemies than allies. A rare case where a supposedly negative status effect can make your guys better at killing things.

Charm is confusion but without the RNG, only 100% screwing you over.

No idea why they never decided to balance this in twenty years.

That even sounds horrible, like you take extra damage while being stuck

Developers who put permanent level drain or instant death spells into their games deserve the noose, especially if there's no reliable way to counter it

Why pick one status ailment when you could pick all of them

Yeah he's just chilling.

>cat
that's a racoon you mong

Demon's Souls Soulsuck invaders were such fun.

>has a reliable way to counter instant kills. doesn't require activation, just set up once and it's on forever
>can attach instant death effect to own basic attacks. it even works on some bosses
>permanent level drain exists, but only player characters have access to it. mobs can never use it
FF8 was kind of nice

>can deliver strong cc
>target is immune while under effect
if you picture the entire so(n)y fanbase naked in big room sucking each other off it would still be less gay

Poisoning can be a fucking bitch if you don't have something to cure it
Especially since most of the time it doesn't go away after the battle and makes you backtrack to the nearest town

That's why I specified no reliable way to counter it. If it exists to punish releckness/ carelessness then it can be okay but if it's just a fuck you to the player then no thank you

>poison can't kill you but always reduces you down to 1hp unlss you cure it

The wait for Last of us 2 was taking too long

He’s waiting for 20XX

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO LIVE THROUGH THIS HELL
WOKEN UP I'M STILL LOCKED IN THIS SHELL
