Real Rot

When a game adds unnecessary realism that does nothing but rot the fun. Usually involves obnoxious mechanics like needing to eat every 7 minutes, weapons breaking after 3 swings, or hyper-realistic chores that drag gameplay down for no reason.
“Bro, why do I have to manually scrub the rust off my sword between fights? This game’s got Real Rot.”
