What's the most annoying character you've ever had to deal with in a game?

Hey Bunches! I've been thinking about characters that just get under your skin. You know, the ones that make you want to throw your controller across the room. For me, it's gotta be Navi from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. That little fairy never shuts up with her constant 'Hey! Listen!' I swear, if I could, I'd stuff her in a bottle and leave her at the bottom of Lake Hylia.

What about you all? What's the most annoying character you've ever had to deal with in a game?

"LION! HELP!"

Lol, yeah. Ashley from og RE4 was very annoying. But also funny.

Fi in Zelda: Skyward Sword annoyed the hell out of me. Mostly because they forced her slow explanations on you. Not sure what speaking like an old school robot was about either.

Several Borderlands characters. I understand they wanted wacky characters, but they're more annoying than funny.

Good question. I might have to choose Spiderman (the PS4 game). The remarks Spidey makes not only annoys the hell out of the villains, but me as well.

Majority 'rivals' in Pokémon games are pretty annoying. Eyerolling for how much they tell the player how incredible we are for doing absolute nothing.

Simply put, they're not allowed to be mean-spirited anymore.

Even when they give multiple rivals in a game & one is 'edgy' turns out they're really just a shy/ sweet anti-social Trainer.

Revisiting remakes of Silver/Gold was a wake-up call; for a long time they've been dopey cheerleaders in disguise. Instead of mocking us they'll now rave how cool and awesome we are.

& we know why games are like this now. Sensitive babies of the world don't like video games to bully them.

Well. Jerks exist_

Well, recently I have to say Aloy in Forbidden West.

She is stubborn, and comes off as disingenuously earnest. Many great heroes take on a great burden, most don't complain about it; but Aloy makes you feel like her burden is this terrible terrible thing and "oh god I'd love to stay and be friends, but, y'know....hero gotta hero, so I'm going to disappear in the night like a jerk" and then make drama about it.

I just wish she'd either go full anti-hero and just deal with things like a pragmatic jerk, or be an actual hero and do her job without coming off as insincere. She clearly has a chip on her shoulder in regards to the society she grew up in and was given this huge gift of completely turning things around but she still insists on keeping that chip on her shoulder.

And I get it. That'd be a tough thing to forgive society for in real life. But this is a video game, and Aloy is not particularly complex nor is the game's story. So either shut up and be the good hero, or break bad and be the badass.

Honestly? I almost NEVER get annoyed from characters in gaming, but Idk, I kinda hated Kasane Randall from Scarlet Nexus, still playing the game. I think she's cold & selfish sometimes or just says annoying things. She made me regret choosing her over Yuito because she tried to kill him entire game without telling him why or without even thinking about it. I might change my opinion about her, but I don't think I will.

most companions in skyrim, they're shallow personalities, slow you down when going anywhere, and in combat they just stand in your way especially in dungeons, that's when they're the most frustrating, they're only useful as shields against a tough boss lol. i do like the ones from the college of winterhold a lot, and faendal ain't so bad. at least ahsley from re4 was funny.

The King of all Cosmos, from the Katamari series. His voice sounds like turntable scratches, which is a very weird effect. He's also incredibly gay. I don't have any bitterness towards the gay community, but when someone is as flamboyant as the King of all Cosmos, it kinda ruined the cutscenes. He shoots rainbows out of his mouth for crying out loud!

It's a shame because I love the old Katamari games. I just wish the King of all Cosmos wasn't so flamboyant. I know that, technically, there is a Queen of all Cosmos, so the developers at least tried to make him seem straight, but to no avail. He's as gay as the day is long.

Stan from DA:O. Every time he was in my party, he died in minutes. I did not know what to do with him...

Selphie probably isn't the worst, she's just the one that stands out the most because she was the first one who really got on my nerves.

And that was only because I played Final Fantasy VIII before I played Grandia. Otherwise it would be Sue.

Nathan Drake and the gang. He quips so much that you forget that you're playing an ok video game.

And Navi, she yells at you what youre supposed to do but cannot give one clue

Kratos in the older God of War games. He's just an asshole. I get why he wants revenge, and the gods certainly deserve what's coming, but he won't shut up about it. Plus the way he'll mow down any innocent bystander that causes some minor inconvenience to his quest for revenge doesn't do it for me.

I like Dad Kratos better. Whenever Atreus bungles something up and Kratos is like, "You dumb fu... sigh... OK, let's try that again", I have to laugh at him and myself. Been there man, fukin' kids. 😆

To be clear, I like the games, just not him.
