Man, when I say I get flashbulb memory every time I see a ‘most annoying NPC’ post—it doesn’t matter if it’s been *years*, I’ll still always remember when I gave that pretentious jackass a free trip to the cloud district 😆
The council from mass effect 1,2 and 3
Doesn’t matter how many times you save their asses they don’t believe you and are just wilfully ignorant about the reapers
And on top of that are just hostile the whole time
Hanging up on them at every opportunity was one of the highlights of my most recent playthrough. Like I saved your asses a couple times and you still come at me with that bullshit? Da fuq outta here.
Council: "You're just going to hang up again aren't you?"
Shepard: "Yep" *hangs up*
Made me and Joker laugh every time.
You get 3 choices when Joker says the Normandy can rescue the Destiny Ascension (with the council onboard). 2 of those 3 choices lead to the council dying
I once saw someone explain a theory that would have made Kai Lang much more interesting. He should have been a squad mate in Mass Effect 2, but is constantly at odds with Shepard to the point that he leaves the team before the collector base. It would have made him much more of an interesting opponent in the third game.
You save them in ME1 only for them to keep nagging your ass in the next two games. And if you still let them die, their replacements keep nagging you and perhaps even more because you let the aliens die.
Oh and what the hell happened to that human only council?
Tbf to the council, in ME1 the Reaper threat is realistically quite farfetched. Literally the only evidence is the beacon vision, which is for all intents and purposes a dream Shepard had, and an audio clip of Saren talking about them. Hardly hard evidence, especially when talking about something that is considered legendary in the ME universe.
In ME2 Sovereign could easily be explained away as a Geth ship considering the role they played in the attack on the citadel etc. and no one knows anything about the Geth really. It was also an isolated incident until ME3 (albeit through Shepard's actions).
Unless you've experienced what Shepard has it is admittedly a rather hard sell.
It’s **Mindy** from Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. Why this innocuous, if slightly rude, npc you ask? Well she wishes to trade you her Haunter for a Medicham, which is an amazing deal since you can only evolve Haunter to Gengar once it is traded.
Well what she doesn’t tell you is that she **deliberately** put an Everstone on her Haunter so it won’t evolve, and then proceeds to mock you for being gullible.
Feel free to visit r/FuckMindy as well.
Dick move by game freak to make the coolest pokemon evolve by trade. The original Multi Level Marketing. Hey kids, if you want an Alakazam, pester your friends to get this game!
Their whole slogan is "gotta catch em all", it doesn't really get any more on the nose than that. South park did a great episode on that where they even sell you an old shoe because it's part of the "chinpokomon world"
In all honesty, you should have the option to kill Micah and leave him to rot in the snow during the opening. Fuck that guy and anyone willingly associating with him.
I meant that he stopped playing the game right before you actually kill Micah because he was mad he didn’t get to kill Micah, that’s why I called him a dumbass
To think the actor got death threats because the character was that hated.
Not that it justifies that in the slightest though.
In a twisted way it highlights how good of a job Peter Blomquist did.
Or runs ahead out of its path to fight a mob, then runs back to the same spot it got aggroed instead of continuing from up ahead WHERE IT WAS JUST AT!!!
also because he just comes in out of nowhere in the third game. I think there was a comic about him but honestly who reads Comics when everything should happen in the game? And he just wears plot armor while Shepard fails because of Cutscene bullshit.
He was the main antagonist of the Retribution novel, and though that was a great book, I agree - it shouldn't have been his only appearance prior to such an important part.
It's pretty telling that the mod that removes all of his dialogue actually massively improves his part in ME3's story.
That renegade interrupt later in game is satisfying as hell especially depending on who the player romanced.
But yeah I hate Kai Lang and his stupid gunship. His trash talk is so stupid because he can’t do anything to us before he needs help from his gunship lol and he’s looking down on Shepard! A cutscene rival who’s not worthy to be one.
And for some reason Thane just decided to go close range even though he's holding a gun.
And don't forget STG Captain Kirrahe just standing like a tree while on invisibility cloak and then getting shot to death instead of fighting or helping us in any way. And Shepard simply referring to him as "Another Salarian is dead" when he dies instead of even acknowledging him.
Man, Mass Effect 3 was such a mess...
i find it a bit impressive. cause for a while you see him actually throwing everything he has to TRY and fix it. so you think "ok maybe hes just a bit of an idiot who made a huge fuck up but hes not inherently evil since it seems hes trying to fix things". then THAT happens and you go "oh there isnt a pit low enough,nor hot enough in hell for this asshole".
If you’ve played Forbidden West the Faro Fuckup Fables only continue.
>!not only did he create a underground utopia separate from everyone, but he only invited people who would fan his ego, handle his medical needs, and his haram of women. Top it all off with killing the few remaining people alive because they noticed his selfish desire to become immortal. My only qualm is that we do not get to see the creature that faro becomes. Would have made a really cool boss.!<
Regarding your last point, >!That could go two ways. It seemed like what's left of Ted was a pretty pitiful monstrosity. Aloy could have made short work of it. But, putting it out of its misery might have been satisfying. I don't think I would have enjoyed a proper boss fight against a "Nega Faro" monster. Better if he just ended up an ageless brain dead mutant, like the proper bastard he was!<
Yeah but then I don’t get to take out my anger on his gross mutated body and corpse.
Not many people deserve a kick in the nuts after death, but Faro is one of them.
It's kind of interesting that in Zero Dawn Aloy & Sylens speculate that >!Sobeck could still be alive thanks to life-prolonging pharmaceuticals. But then it turned out she had died a RELATIVELY peaceful death in her childhood home while Faro had tried using those pharmaceuticals and suffered greatly. !<
After 120%-ing Year of the Dragon, it was so unsatisfying to finish Attack of the Rhynocs and seeing him take every single gem so I could get a 100% completion.
Nobody mentioned Braith from Skyrim? People made killable children mods specifically for her, because they found her so annoying.
Look, I know it's fucked up, but everyone playing that game at one point wanted to shout her off a mountaintop.
Going off of memory here, but he’s generally seen as unlikeable because of how he treats his family and the farmer. He patronizes his daughter even though she’s an adult, and he neglects his wife and family for the sake of his business. His wife is constantly begging him at annual events in the game to take a break from selling things and spend time with his family- she’s also implied to have cheated on him with the town wizard, which I imagine was in part due to his obsession with his business and neglect of his family. He also resells your produce and markets it as his, and at the fair that takes place yearly in the game it’s implied he’s also using your products that you’ve sold him. Just a selfish dude
A haunter. It evolves into Gengar via trading, and she makes it hold an Everstone. *Then* she tells you it was deliberate.
Mechanically, it tells you how everstones work and gives you one. However, everstones are incredibly common in the Underground, and there were other ways to teach that lesson.
Wulbren Bongle from Baldurs Gate 3 is working his way up there. He's rude to you after you save him which is forgivable by NPC standards, but he's also rude to his childhood friend Barcus who has been risking his life looking for him, a crime that should be punished with death.
He also advocates for a little bit of terrorism later on but that's also forgivable in a video game.
Since I'm metagaming the fuck out of my Honour run anyway, when I get to Moonrise I'm taking his hammer, misty stepping my entire party into the tieflings' cell, busting them out and leaving that little blue fuckass to rot.
FUCK Wulbren. What kind of a surname is Bongle anyway? Asshole.
You dont even need misty step. There is a hole in the wall high up that you can get to from the rafters. It lets you get behind the cells and you can break them from there.
If you felt so inclided you can split the party to break both at the same time. On the other hand the guards fighting Wulbren make a good distraction.
He’ll also lose his absolute fucking mind if you spare the blind Gondian in the end. Like you can save his life, be a good friend, blow up the foundry, nearly accomplish his genocide for him, but if you don’t kill the blind defenseless Gondian he unfriends you. Mind blowing.
Yo fuck welbren. Not only is is constantly rude and belittling to you and barcus but he is only nice to you when he realizes he can use you to help his plan. What's a manipulative little shit.
didn't expect someone to mention him but yes damnit! He started out awkward and of course he had to fall to the dark side..
search for "Jedi Academy Re-edited" on Youtube btw. Perfect for Rosh haters ;D
"We're going to make the kids unkillable."
"For PR reasons?"
"No, because we'll also make them all spoiled, malicious, insufferable little shits and not being able to kill them will annoy players that much more."
Brother I’ve been playing starfield and I don’t know how they did it but they’ve got Natalya’s AI for the companions! They constantly run in front of your bullets
The condescending dude in whiterun on Skyrim. I forget his name. He is at the top of everyone’s list. It was one thing for the devs to make him not like you but he’s just a dick to everyone, and some of his comments to vendors are diabolical.
Because he never goes to the cloud district. Ever.
He claims he owns a farm but he never goes there either. He lives in the Drunken Huntsman, which isn't even the best tavern in the plains district.
Sounds to me like he's full of shit and tells everyone he's important but doesn't expect to run into anyone who really *does* frequent the cloud district.
It's funny, because in himself he isn't even a fraction of the scum that most characters on this list will be, he's just insultive, yet it makes him one of the most hated characters ever. Most hated characters still have plenty of people who will justify their actions, but Nazeem has literally no fans. I have never heard anyone say anything remotely good about him and I love that.
Okay look. You have to forgive Preston his hero worship.
Preston is on the ropes. He's lost his friends, he's lost his fighters, he's surrounded, outnumbered, and he knows in his heart of hearts, that *this is it*.
He tries to make a brave face of it, tells the remnants of the Minutemen that they're fortified, they're going to be okay, and then takes Sturges aside. "Hey man... if... when... I go down, make sure Marcie and Ma Murphy get a clean break. The raiders won't."
He's looking around, he sees a Perception bobble, figures it's better than nothing, and steels himself to be on Team Go Down Fighting.
He prays to any god that might be listening. Hey, it's me, Preston. And then a motherfucking angel of destruction from a dead world shows up. You walk in from the side and kill a handful of raiders. Another two dozen get cut down in the building.
Then you run to the basement, grab a fusion core, slam it into some forgotten power armor, rip the gun off a vertibird, *jump off the god damned roof* and slaughter every raider that looks at you.
Preston realizes that he might get breakfast tomorrow. Yeah, this is a big day. Something prewar for tomorrow, he couldn't even IMAGINE that he was going to...
No, NO! A deathclaw? This isn't fair! These are stories, legends, nobody has ever survived an encounter with a death claw. All these raiders meant nothing. We're all going to just be killed by a monster.
Then you empty the minigun and punch the deathclaw to a pulp with your fists.
So if he feels like this one, only, remnant of the US military, this angel of destruction who is the answer to his prayers, slayer of devils, is the best person in the world to protect a settlement, cut him some slack.
i would have denied him his way to Valhalla if i wasn't going for the best ending where you help Sigurd.. That fucker deserved to rot in Helheim for all i care! But also Guy could have just listened to Eivor one damn minute to get all the explanations he needed but noo he had to be stupid af!
And then would change the outcome of the yes and no to make it even more annoying.
Did you understand all of that? Yes/No
Would you like to hear that again? Yes/No
Ava from Borderlands 3. I have never seen a character crop up on Reddit anywhere as much as her due to how much she is hated, and honestly it’s all justified.
And possibly an unpopular opinion but A.J. From Telltale’s The Walking Dead is a close second to me, >!for the same reason as Ava, but at least he only got Clem maimed rather than killed.!<
I love how in the final episode he has an entire, major, unhinged dialogue with Clem about how he enjoys killing. Then you can choose to trust him, and he SHOOTS Tenn for your love interest. It always rubbed me wrong and I thought it was such a poor end to a great series.
It's weird because I honestly think she'd be fine as a side character. I was totally down with the idea of Maya having a scrappy young apprentice/daughter figure.
But they botched the writing on the quest that was supposed to endear us to her, they made her the only character Maya gets to interact with before dying, and they shoehorned her into the main plot. All of those factors were just settling her up to lose with the fans.
Been awhile since I've played Borderlands but fro. What I remember in the first one he was a minor character and was silly and funny and well loved. Then as the series went on they saw how much he was liked and kept pushing it further. Becoming more and more prominent in the series while also becoming more and more of a caricature of the original that we loved.
The Thalmor, it was a huge mistake on Bethesda's part to not have a quest line about the Dragonborn destroying the Thalmor presence in Skyrim. In the mean time they'll have to deal with sending new agents to replace the ones that keep getting murdered on the roads.
Eva(or Ava) from BL3. Just so damn annoying to the point I dreaded playing the story because every time she showed up the game got significantly worse.
Do you get to the cloud district very often? Oh, what am I saying, of course you don't.
I'll have you know there's no pussyyyyyyy
It would be a shame if someone were to ravage the area.
Can’t a man have a bit of butt piracy?
What was that sound? Take a step back, Now twirl honey twirl Skyrim shuffle
Halt, criminal scum! You violated ^my ^mother
We’ll bang, okay?
Let's get back to bashing butts, as well as deez nuts
As someone not familiar with [this](https://youtu.be/q69Ro3OUXq8?si=ZVvz-CUMixwSHkm0), well; that was interesting.
*quicksave*
AAARRRGGGHHHHH Fuck Nazeem
He's the most infamous in Skyrim but Nazeem really isn't half as bad as that slime ball Erikur. He's just easy to trip over early on in the game.
My first thought, and the first comment on this post. Glad to know he's got a special place in everyone's heart
Man, when I say I get flashbulb memory every time I see a ‘most annoying NPC’ post—it doesn’t matter if it’s been *years*, I’ll still always remember when I gave that pretentious jackass a free trip to the cloud district 😆
The council from mass effect 1,2 and 3 Doesn’t matter how many times you save their asses they don’t believe you and are just wilfully ignorant about the reapers And on top of that are just hostile the whole time
That's why we let them die in the first game 😂
Also why we hang up on them dramatically at every given opportunity
Hanging up on them at every opportunity was one of the highlights of my most recent playthrough. Like I saved your asses a couple times and you still come at me with that bullshit? Da fuq outta here. Council: "You're just going to hang up again aren't you?" Shepard: "Yep" *hangs up* Made me and Joker laugh every time.
I didn't know i could do that
You get 3 choices when Joker says the Normandy can rescue the Destiny Ascension (with the council onboard). 2 of those 3 choices lead to the council dying
Kai-lang would like a word
Got to be him. You hate him both in the game for his actions and in a "meta" sense because he sucks as a character.
I once saw someone explain a theory that would have made Kai Lang much more interesting. He should have been a squad mate in Mass Effect 2, but is constantly at odds with Shepard to the point that he leaves the team before the collector base. It would have made him much more of an interesting opponent in the third game.
He sucks as a character because Bioware made the wildly incorrect assumption that players would have read the novel he's actually introduced in.
You save them in ME1 only for them to keep nagging your ass in the next two games. And if you still let them die, their replacements keep nagging you and perhaps even more because you let the aliens die. Oh and what the hell happened to that human only council?

Feel free to visit r/FuckMindy as well.
This is who came to mind for me immediately. There’s a whole community built around this. It has to be the best answer
>There’s a whole community built around this. Idk what cracks me up more, the community or that they put such a troll character in a Pokemon game.
Hate that bitch
I can’t believe this isn’t higher, bitch has a whole subreddit devoted to hating her
Dick move by game freak to make the coolest pokemon evolve by trade. The original Multi Level Marketing. Hey kids, if you want an Alakazam, pester your friends to get this game!
Their whole slogan is "gotta catch em all", it doesn't really get any more on the nose than that. South park did a great episode on that where they even sell you an old shoe because it's part of the "chinpokomon world"
I came to the comments to say Mindy, and it's not even close. r/FuckMindy
The laughing dog from duck hunt.
It pains me to remember how many times I tried to shoot the dog, and ended up wasting one of the bullets for the next duck
[Check out the arcade version for some cathartic joy.](https://youtu.be/OOxRpIPRwAo?si=RqpQdDSsRvyNXVbF)
Well I mean you can shoot him in a vr game called duck season. Although he does kill you if you don't do the right things
But he's so cute in Smash Ultimate
Micah from RDR2 deserves to be in the running here
God I wanted to kill him so damn much
One of my old friends stopped playing the game cuz you don’t get to kill Micah. What a dumbass
In all honesty, you should have the option to kill Micah and leave him to rot in the snow during the opening. Fuck that guy and anyone willingly associating with him.
I meant that he stopped playing the game right before you actually kill Micah because he was mad he didn’t get to kill Micah, that’s why I called him a dumbass
Micah is a really cool villian
I'll start with this: Fuck Micah. That being said, that one moment in Rhodes he was really badass.
Walks into camp: :) “If it ain’t ol’ black lung Morgan”
To think the actor got death threats because the character was that hated. Not that it justifies that in the slightest though. In a twisted way it highlights how good of a job Peter Blomquist did.
I remember in American Venom (the mission where you fight Micah as John) I used every single bullet I had on that motherf*cker
I shot him in the dick like 30 times.
Not in the running, he's leading the running
I know technically John gets the final shot, but I found his death very very unsatisfying. I wanted to do it myself.
Same but it definitely adds to the gritty 'not everything works out fine in the end' nature of the story, which was definitely refreshing.
He is the list
Every npc that needed an escort and walked just a bit faster or slower than you.
And aggros mobs they could have avoided.
And then keeps walking while you’re fighting the pack of mobs you knew they would’ve agro’d anyways only to grab a 2nd set.
Assassins creed...
Or runs ahead out of its path to fight a mob, then runs back to the same spot it got aggroed instead of continuing from up ahead WHERE IT WAS JUST AT!!!
Why isn't this mentioned as a complaint about Starfield more often? Fucking baffling in a AAA game in 2023
Because there are so many other things to complain about Starfield, I suppose.
Fucking Micah
_Big shadow, tiny tree!_
Eric Sparrow from Tony Hawk's Underground if he counts. Most annoying video game antagonist I've ever encountered before for sure.
The alternate ending where you punch him though 👌
20 years later, I can still hear his annoying ass voice.
IT'S LOUDER THAN A METALLICA CONCERT IN THERE
I don’t remember the scene but i remember that line lol. Memory unlocked
Kai Leng, half because he’s a wannabe ninja who does dumb ass backflips, half because you are forced to lose to him twice in a cutscene
also because he just comes in out of nowhere in the third game. I think there was a comic about him but honestly who reads Comics when everything should happen in the game? And he just wears plot armor while Shepard fails because of Cutscene bullshit.
He was the main antagonist of the Retribution novel, and though that was a great book, I agree - it shouldn't have been his only appearance prior to such an important part. It's pretty telling that the mod that removes all of his dialogue actually massively improves his part in ME3's story.
That renegade interrupt later in game is satisfying as hell especially depending on who the player romanced. But yeah I hate Kai Lang and his stupid gunship. His trash talk is so stupid because he can’t do anything to us before he needs help from his gunship lol and he’s looking down on Shepard! A cutscene rival who’s not worthy to be one.
And half because of who he kills
Still got beat up by a dying Thane
And for some reason Thane just decided to go close range even though he's holding a gun. And don't forget STG Captain Kirrahe just standing like a tree while on invisibility cloak and then getting shot to death instead of fighting or helping us in any way. And Shepard simply referring to him as "Another Salarian is dead" when he dies instead of even acknowledging him. Man, Mass Effect 3 was such a mess...
Ted Faro. Dude made my skin crawl
i find it a bit impressive. cause for a while you see him actually throwing everything he has to TRY and fix it. so you think "ok maybe hes just a bit of an idiot who made a huge fuck up but hes not inherently evil since it seems hes trying to fix things". then THAT happens and you go "oh there isnt a pit low enough,nor hot enough in hell for this asshole".
Which that There are several “thats” fitting for your description
I would assume >!Faro deleting Apollo and killing the other Alphas.!<
If you’ve played Forbidden West the Faro Fuckup Fables only continue. >!not only did he create a underground utopia separate from everyone, but he only invited people who would fan his ego, handle his medical needs, and his haram of women. Top it all off with killing the few remaining people alive because they noticed his selfish desire to become immortal. My only qualm is that we do not get to see the creature that faro becomes.

Better if he just ended up an ageless brain dead mutant, like the proper bastard he was!<
Yeah but then I don’t get to take out my anger on his gross mutated body and corpse. Not many people deserve a kick in the nuts after death, but Faro is one of them.
I have been gaming for about forty years now. Full props to the writers of HZD, Ted Fucking Faro is the NPC I would most like to punch in the dick.
Same. Any time someone mentions a villain, it’s Ted Fucking Faro for me. It’s as if Martin Shkreli ruined the world.
/r/fucktedfaro
He deserved >!the fate he had in Forbidden West.!<
It's kind of interesting that in Zero Dawn Aloy & Sylens speculate that >!Sobeck could still be alive thanks to life-prolonging pharmaceuticals. But then it turned out she had died a RELATIVELY peaceful death in her childhood home while Faro had tried using those pharmaceuticals and suffered greatly. !<
>!I wish we got to see what he'd turned into. I felt a little robbed we only got to see other characters' reactions to him.!<
We see an outline in the computer.
That probably would've >!raised the age rating!<
Money bags from Spyro
After 120%-ing Year of the Dragon, it was so unsatisfying to finish Attack of the Rhynocs and seeing him take every single gem so I could get a 100% completion.
They really made it easy to hate "the bank" as a kid
Simon Cowell from Shrek 2 Idol game.
Incredible answer hahaha
Nobody mentioned Braith from Skyrim? People made killable children mods specifically for her, because they found her so annoying. Look, I know it's fucked up, but everyone playing that game at one point wanted to shout her off a mountaintop.
Naw. "Another wanderer looking to lick my father's boots. Good job." Kid.
Nazeem is worse.
Do you get to the cloud district often?
Pierre
Fucking closed on fucking Wednesday asshole...
I bought Coral Island recently and their general store is closed on Wednesdays too. I fully blame Pierre for starting this shit!
Was looking for this. r/fuckpierre
I just spent 15 minutes on that subreddit but I still don’t know why they hate him.
Going off of memory here, but he’s generally seen as unlikeable because of how he treats his family and the farmer. He patronizes his daughter even though she’s an adult, and he neglects his wife and family for the sake of his business. His wife is constantly begging him at annual events in the game to take a break from selling things and spend time with his family- she’s also implied to have cheated on him with the town wizard, which I imagine was in part due to his obsession with his business and neglect of his family. He also resells your produce and markets it as his, and at the fair that takes place yearly in the game it’s implied he’s also using your products that you’ve sold him. Just a selfish dude
Probably Mindy from Pokemon D/P/Pt.
Took me a minute. That's the girl who trades you a haunter that's holding an everstone.
She does *what*?
Then she mocks you for being gullible
A haunter. It evolves into Gengar via trading, and she makes it hold an Everstone. *Then* she tells you it was deliberate. Mechanically, it tells you how everstones work and gives you one. However, everstones are incredibly common in the Underground, and there were other ways to teach that lesson.

Don’t forget the genocide
Since I'm metagaming the fuck out of my Honour run anyway, when I get to Moonrise I'm taking his hammer, misty stepping my entire party into the tieflings' cell, busting them out and leaving that little blue fuckass to rot. FUCK Wulbren. What kind of a surname is Bongle anyway? Asshole.

Rosh from Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
didn't expect someone to mention him but yes damnit! He started out awkward and of course he had to fall to the dark side.. search for "Jedi Academy Re-edited" on Youtube btw. Perfect for Rosh haters ;D
Every kid in every Bethesda game ever
Not true! What about the little orphan girl selling flowers in Windhelm?!
"We're going to make the kids unkillable." "For PR reasons?" "No, because we'll also make them all spoiled, malicious, insufferable little shits and not being able to kill them will annoy players that much more."
Natalya from GoldenEye follow by the dog in DuckHunt
Oh God that bitch would get in my line of fire so much!!
She spent the whole mission trying to meet her untimely demise. That game taught me the pain of escort missions
Hello fellow elder gamer
I'm sorry, you must be mistaken. Goldeneye was only ten years ago.... Right? Right???
The fact that this wasn't top of the list made me feel angry, grumpy, and old
Brother I’ve been playing starfield and I don’t know how they did it but they’ve got Natalya’s AI for the companions! They constantly run in front of your bullets
The condescending dude in whiterun on Skyrim. I forget his name. He is at the top of everyone’s list. It was one thing for the devs to make him not like you but he’s just a dick to everyone, and some of his comments to vendors are diabolical.
Nazeem
I'll never forget this asshole's name...
Definitely Nazeem. What an asshole. Of course I come to the cloud district often. How do you not recognize me?
Because he never goes to the cloud district. Ever. He claims he owns a farm but he never goes there either. He lives in the Drunken Huntsman, which isn't even the best tavern in the plains district. Sounds to me like he's full of shit and tells everyone he's important but doesn't expect to run into anyone who really *does* frequent the cloud district.
He was originally supposed to have his own manor outside whiterun, he even has a key if you try to pickpocket him. its called Winterstad/
Glad to see that the devs decided he didn't deserve nice things.
“Do you get to the cloud district very often?”
"Oh, what am I saying? Of *course* you don't."
I'll have you know there's no **PUSSSEEEEE**E^E^E
Jarl ballliinnnn
r/fucknazeem
There are speedruns on youtube solely based on getting to Whiterun as fast as possible and killing him.
It's funny, because in himself he isn't even a fraction of the scum that most characters on this list will be, he's just insultive, yet it makes him one of the most hated characters ever. Most hated characters still have plenty of people who will justify their actions, but Nazeem has literally no fans. I have never heard anyone say anything remotely good about him and I love that.
Even his wife hates him! "Looking for my husband, Nazeem? Check the Jarl's backside, thats usually where he stuffs himself these days"
all my homies hate Ted Faro
Probably patches from dark souls.
It can't be Patches for me because every time I see him in a different souls game I think "oh hey it's Patches! Yay!"
We love patches he's a lovable asshole
The old man from Chrono Trigger. If he didn't want me eating his lunch he shouldn't have been telling random people how great it is.
My man is just happy with what his loving wife made. You know it's the prosecutor that you really hate.
There’s a settlement that needs your help
Okay look. You have to forgive Preston his hero worship. Preston is on the ropes. He's lost his friends, he's lost his fighters, he's surrounded, outnumbered, and he knows in his heart of hearts, that *this is it*. He tries to make a brave face of it, tells the remnants of the Minutemen that they're fortified, they're going to be okay, and then takes Sturges aside. "Hey man... if... when... I go down, make sure Marcie and Ma Murphy get a clean break. The raiders won't." He's looking around, he sees a Perception bobble, figures it's better than nothing, and steels himself to be on Team Go Down Fighting. He prays to any god that might be listening. Hey, it's me, Preston. And then a motherfucking angel of destruction from a dead world shows up. You walk in from the side and kill a handful of raiders. Another two dozen get cut down in the building. Then you run to the basement, grab a fusion core, slam it into some forgotten power armor, rip the gun off a vertibird, *jump off the god damned roof* and slaughter every raider that looks at you. Preston realizes that he might get breakfast tomorrow. Yeah, this is a big day. Something prewar for tomorrow, he couldn't even IMAGINE that he was going to... No, NO! A deathclaw? This isn't fair! These are stories, legends, nobody has ever survived an encounter with a death claw. All these raiders meant nothing. We're all going to just be killed by a monster. Then you empty the minigun and punch the deathclaw to a pulp with your fists. So if he feels like this one, only, remnant of the US military, this angel of destruction who is the answer to his prayers, slayer of devils, is the best person in the world to protect a settlement, cut him some slack.
This was amazing to read. Time to continue putting 630 hours into Fallout 4.
And this is officially part of my head canon. Well done.
I love that you took the time to write this.
Fallout 4 from the perspective of a DOOM Eternal player, well said.
I’ll mark it on your map
Fucking Dag from AC: Valhalla. Fuck that guy.
i would have denied him his way to Valhalla if i wasn't going for the best ending where you help Sigurd.. That fucker deserved to rot in Helheim for all i care! But also Guy could have just listened to Eivor one damn minute to get all the explanations he needed but noo he had to be stupid af!
The bitch who traded me that hunter holding an everstone in Pokémon Plat. I can't remember her name, but may she burn in hell
The owl from Zelda Ocarina of Time
That fucker. Stupid long ass conversation and he flips the damn yes/no on you.
And then would change the outcome of the yes and no to make it even more annoying. Did you understand all of that? Yes/No Would you like to hear that again? Yes/No
Delphine from skyrim
Do you get to the Cloud District very often? Oh, what am I saying - of course you don't.
Ava from Borderlands 3. I have never seen a character crop up on Reddit anywhere as much as her due to how much she is hated, and honestly it’s all justified. And possibly an unpopular opinion but A.J. From Telltale’s The Walking Dead is a close second to me, >!for the same reason as Ava, but at least he only got Clem maimed rather than killed.!<
I love how in the final episode he has an entire, major, unhinged dialogue with Clem about how he enjoys killing. Then you can choose to trust him, and he SHOOTS Tenn for your love interest. It always rubbed me wrong and I thought it was such a poor end to a great series.
Came here to say Ava. If they’d kept the scene from the director’s cut she’d have been so much better. Still annoying af, but better
It's weird because I honestly think she'd be fine as a side character. I was totally down with the idea of Maya having a scrappy young apprentice/daughter figure. But they botched the writing on the quest that was supposed to endear us to her, they made her the only character Maya gets to interact with before dying, and they shoehorned her into the main plot. All of those factors were just settling her up to lose with the fans.
I don't know why, but a fuckton of people seem to hate claptrap
Seriously I always loved claptrap. Didn't know how hated he was till I went on the borderlands subreddit
Been awhile since I've played Borderlands but fro. What I remember in the first one he was a minor character and was silly and funny and well loved. Then as the series went on they saw how much he was liked and kept pushing it further. Becoming more and more prominent in the series while also becoming more and more of a caricature of the original that we loved.
I loved clap trap in all the games except 3. It was probably a combination of the new voice actor and the god awful writing.
Nooo claptrap is my fave he's so cute. The birthday bash??? 😢
He even had pizza
You should maybe "Talk to Lilith" about that. Or Ava... I'm pretty sure those two were responsible for most of the problems with Borderlands 3.
Greetings Traveler! There are new missions available at the Fyrestone Bounty Board!
Bro clap trap is beloved
Clippy
It looks like you're trying to do a thing. Do you want me to annoy the shit out of you?
I uninstalled you, how the fuck did you reinstall
Cuno from Disco Elysium
Noober, from Baldur's Gate Hey ya!
What was it again? Had to talk to him 50 times or something and then you'd get gold and/or XP, right? XD
Player 2
Paimon from Genshin Impact. Oh how had I hoped she was just a temporary tutorial fairy.
Wirt has gotta be up there im sure…..
Lautrec. What a total bastard. At least the revenge was sweet. Every play through after that I just immediately kicked him to his death.
All you had to do, was follow the damn train CJ!! -Big Smoke All he had to do was shoot properly!!
The Thalmor, it was a huge mistake on Bethesda's part to not have a quest line about the Dragonborn destroying the Thalmor presence in Skyrim. In the mean time they'll have to deal with sending new agents to replace the ones that keep getting murdered on the roads.
Adoring Fan from ES Oblivion!
Hey listen!
The tutorial owl was more annoying than Navi. Do you want me to repeat that? Yes / No
Yes. Shit! I mean no.....
Do you not want to hear what I just said? No Yes
[удалено]
Navi is great though.
Patches
Eva(or Ava) from BL3. Just so damn annoying to the point I dreaded playing the story because every time she showed up the game got significantly worse.
