Dark Souls.
I get it, the game kicks your ass and punishes the everloving sh*t out of you constantly, but the interface was clunky and I don't think that destroying my entire save file because I wanted to see if I could whack the merchant is as much "hardcore" as it is "pointlessly overkill". And I know that the arguement could easily be made that the game is punishing me accordingly and that I brought it on myself, and that's probably a fair point, it just left a really sour taste in my mouth.
