Immersion breakers
A couple of mine are:
- Texture Popping (BDO has such amazing graphics... except this!)
- People instantly sprinting everywhere. Walk before you run you whippersnappers!

Not so much the game's fault, but I do prefer lore based naming restrictions.
This is where despite how much I love the lore behind Warcraft, I hate how much of the game world is designed.
Moving immediately from woodland into jungle or from glacier into tropics or from any number of crazy geographic transitions sucks.
have to to say that off the wall Creazy and silly names to the point of being unreasonable are a top offender. The main one would have to be the players whom jump around like a bunch of squirrels on coffee during mating season. {*_*}
hummmmmm , , , , *smiles* , , , , can we have insta portals ? Like in Archeage ? So that we can open portals into the middle of sea, and watch them all jump in it by accident.
As mentioned before, funky names are probably the worst thing, in addition to RL chat spams.
I just want to be alone in a dystopian wasteland. The fact that the game isn't designed for this type of gameplay, being an "massive multiplayer", shouldn't really matter as it is 2017 and the way I feel should really trump everything else.
@Hatchet, I am not saying "don't put RL soda machines on your homestead, it ruins the game for me." I am just indicating that for me it breaks immersion. Yes, I am in fact not there and the keyboard/tower/monitor are obvious indications of that. However, similar to reading a book, I like to feel as close to the story/characters as possible even if the book is fantasy and I am sitting on the couch. For that matters, bad writing with Meta/4th-wall-breaking styles of writing usually turn me away. It can be done, but that doesn't mean everyone should do it.
For me immersion is more based on not seeing RL mimicked in the game through add placements or characters designed to represent a current fad.
*please no fidget spinners*
For example: In Elder Scrolls, near the beginning, a person questions your story because you are wearing slaver armor. Even if you have no slaver armor on or are carrying any.
Drives me nuts.
But yeah, I just hope character customisation, physical and gear-wise is spot on. Oh, and please, no more Guild Wars 2 A-line skirts for player armour - thanks
