Ezio Auditore from Assassin's Creed 2. He's not that great compared to other assassins.
Lightning.
Yeah, I literally do not know a SINGLE PERSON who likes her, and she's still overrated.

This! I don't understand the hype about her either. She's never been a likeable character to me; just seems bland, expressionless and boring majority of the time >>;; That's why I could not stand XIII, and currently have no plans in getting Lightning Returns; the only tolerable game in the series was XIII-2 because she was out of the picture...
Well... I'd disagree with you, Cloud is a very unique, memorable, and just plain interesting character. For a number of reasons really, he's an excellent, round, and dynamic character.. And Sephiroth... What do I need to say? He is an excellent antagonist. He's threatening and seems almost psychotic. And things just get personal once he kills Aerith, I mean he's the guy you just love to hate! That's why everybody loves (and hates) the two.Link, Cloud, and Sephiroth. Done, topic over. Seriously, I don't even need to explain why these guys are beyond overrated.
Something can be overrated yet still good, I never explicitly said that Cloud was a bad character. I just don't think that he is "THE BEST CHARACTER OF ALL TIME" like others rave on about. Is he a likeable character with decent character development? Yes, of course, I don't deny that. But to say that he is one of the best character of all video games to deserve all the praise he gets is hard for me to swallow.Well...

As for Sephiroth? He's a maniacal murderer with a god complex. Does he have his reasons for that? Sure. But that doesn't instantly make him a fantastic antagonist that all video games should all strive towards having. Same thing with Cloud, I don't believe Sephiroth truly deserves all the praise he gets especially when Kefka did a better job at being the psychotic villain.
Look! People are already stating my choice. I really didn't care for Lightning at all, She just seemed like a really weak character. :\
For clarification, I meant the latter. I really found her to be an uninteresting character, but that's my opinion.Weak as in physicality-wise, or there wasn't enough within her personality to actually intrigue the audiences? I honestly have no idea why people are so taken with her; anyone who does find her to be an interesting character, please feel free to give me some insight (: As sarcastic as that might sound, I'm actually curious as to why individuals are infatuated.

Honestly, to a point I can agree. But one reason everybody loves him is because they grew up playing the Mario games. So Mario brings back a lot of memories for people.Kill me, but I'll say Mario. He is a great character but some people overrate him too much. He's surely not the best character there is. That's just how I feel it, though.
