Most annoying video game character?

[DecadeRiptide]

What is the most annoying video character you know of?

I was thinking mario and his stupid voice (hate how all the ******* are obsessed with him), but paimon is extremely annoying honestly. Cicero is annoying as well though.

Paimon is easily one of the top 3 if not the top. Genshin a several hundred hour long visual novel JRPG, but your character - the main protagonist - is not allowed to talk on his behalf or interact with other characters or ask questions. Instead, you are robbed by the 60 IQ fairy who has to repeat everything spoken to her and regurgitate it back to me. She easily doubles the dialogue count.

Kuon from Utawarerumono Mask of Truth because of how she is an infuriating mary sue who hijacks the last 15 hours of the game and makes everything about her. She severely brought down my enjoyment of it.

Lloyd Bannings from Trails is infuriating for how he dooms the world not once but twice because he 1. throws away a chance to alter the timeline to prevent the world war (whilist still leaving he and his friends alive who are only still alive because the antagonists were kind and altered the timeline to bring them back to life) and 2. dismisses a time travelling survivor from the future trying to inform him how to avoid an apocalypse that will happen in two years. Lo and behold, everybody dies. Thanks a lot Lloyd!

Mario, Yoshi, Waluigi, Child Link from OOT, the Inklings, the cast of Wolfenstein II, the cast of Borderlands, Fi from Skyward Sword, the water dragon from Skyward Sword...

That lanky ****** Lamar in GTA 5. He was written to be an accurate representation of the ghetto ****** "crabs in a bucket" mentality. This makes him extremely insufferable.

Take your pick from the cast of Veilguard. The non-binary Qunari.

[Bhaalspawn Jr]

Every modern Pokemon character. Look at that gay **** in Z-A.

Navi from Ocarina.

[TheEmptyRoad]

Navi from Ocarina.

Hey!

Listen!


Nenio, from Wrath of the Righteous. Feels like she’s a DLC character from a bad DLC, so jarringly out of place is she. Between her heckin quirky autism and her RIDICULOUS long and complicated personal quest, she feels like some nepo dev’s furry self-insert.

Dude I get you but I feel like she's a godsent of a lore expert token companion compared to Jubilost from Kingmaker.

The most plot-armored character in both Pathfinder games and is portrayed like a condescending academic that is literally 100% correct about everything he says and if your character ever disagrees, in the rare chance there is a option to do so instead of groveling at his feet, well you're just an ignoramus! Definitely a redditor's self-insert.

The one companion in Dragon Age Inquisition I actively kicked out every time

She sounds worse than she looks.

Indeed. I agree.

[Nemesis]

Mud, from Gothic.

I'm having a hard time coming up with one, because as soon as a character actually annoys me, I stop playing, forget the character and file the game as ****.

I find most intentional mascot characters to be very offputting and annoying

[GhostCow]

Everyone knows it's navi

i wanted to say mud and also this.

they are everywhere now and they start giving hints before you even have a chance to think. it is disgusting. why make a riddle if you tell me the solution right away. bonkers. i always think the new devs see the gameplay as filler for theri propaganda and want to make sure everyone gets through it as quickly as posssible so they get more propaganda cut scenes.

kinda like games stopped being games.

Once I remembered this thing exists I couldn't think of anyone else.

Man, at least you could call her a stupid **** and tell her to **** off.
In Veilguard all you could do is simper pathetically and tell all the ******* niggerfag companions how awesomesauce they are.

I think Sonic & Crash were cool tho.

Link in the 3d zeldas. His constant screaming is unbearable.

[Kolgrim]

Any character this ***** voices or mocaps.

I watched some interview she did a while back and she actually seemed rather ok, didn't bring up any culture war stuff etc., just talked about the games she was going to be in.
She was answering questions and one of them was why she's facescanned into so many games, and she said the developers request it, it's not something she requests. (paraphrasing, been a while)

Could be lying I guess, but that would be weird since someone could call it out.

@Oyster Sauce You have a fan.

[Vaako]

Johny Silverhand from Cyberpunk is the most recent one. Usually if you cant get rid of them and they force you to listen to them and then the immersion is ruined. Cliffracers and Claptrap shortly after.

Having a redditor trapped in your head slowly taking over your body is a punishment worse than anything in the bible

How is Silverhand a redditor? Sure, he was a degenerate ****** and a bad friend when he was alive, but if you abstract away his character and focus on his opinions, he is completely accurate in his evaluation of both the Arasaka and the NUSA government. No redditor would have the balls to fedpost as much as Silverhand. It's also made pretty clear in the game that his opposition to Arasaka isn't him sperging about capitalism or being a Marxist.

Keanu Reeves is a bad ******* actor, though, and was only brought in for the sake of marketing and for reddit chungus points. I got used to him after a while, but that casting decision was absolutely atrocious.
