Useless?

From Joepedia
by Marik Bentusi

Early on when Joe was playing Persona 5, there was a flashback to something that happened roughly one minute before the flashback was shown.[1][2] This alone left a bad impression on Joe in terms of the game's use of flashbacks. Much later on, a character called Makoto got called useless by her older sister.[3] Then literally one minute later, a different character called her useless again. At this point, Joe almost praised the writing of the game for this connection. But then it did a flashback to 60 seconds ago in case it wasn't obvious enough, and he lost it.[4]

Although no character ever actually said "Wait… Useless?", this is somethig Joe started saying after this moment, especially whenever a flashback happened. Also whenever words ending in the suffix "-less" appear in other games, he tends to say "Wait…" followed by the word.
