The One You Love To Hate

[.Fenris]

Much like the 'Most Hated VG Character' thread on Serebii, what video game character inspires your hate? It can be anything from incompetent AI, a teeth-grindingly hard boss battle, or the character just being a rude, arrogant piece o' garbage.

My pick? Roy Earle from LA Noire. I half-expected him to grow a permanent trollface and say: "You mad, Cole?"

 

[Darkfox1525]

Kefka from Final Fantasy 6.

He kills anyone, whether you be man, woman, or child.
He ruined the world and drove millions to commit suicide.
He killed his Emperor for power.
He killed his fellow general because he didn't like him.
He poisoned an ENTIRE kingdom, even when he was told not too.

 

[Pwnyta Jockey]

Crawmerax the Invincible

From Borderlands DLC of Secret Armory. Not having buddies. Being a Berserker.

 

[Legobricks]

As character: Saren Arterius
Goes to show that, to paraphrase an article, "you just have to be an ass, and one who's getting away with it".

As enemy: Reiuji Utsuho
☢ CAUTION!! ☢ CAUTION!! ☢

My choice will show just how little I game (as evidenced by my awkward use of 'game' as a verb :P) but the character I can't stand is Azazel from Tekken 6. He is just astonishingly hard to kill, and has resulted in many a rage-quit from me.

There's the big ugly thing. Oh how I hate you...

 

[Cherrim]

Freaking Riku in Kingdom Hearts. >:O He's a fandom favourite but I can't stand the kid. He made dumb choices and dumb decisions to make up for those dumb choices and he needs to pull his goddamn pants up in KH2. /rant lmao

After that is probably... idk, Asch from Tales of the Abyss or Joshua from TWEWY? And even then the latter I don't really hate, I just dislike him and the fandom obsession with him.

I'm pretty mellow. I rarely hate VG characters. And often enough, characters that I hate originally become favourites (Colette [Tales of Symphonia], Marluxia [Kingdom Hearts], Anise [Tales of the Abyss], etc.)

 

[Deenaa]

I know it sounds odd, but I have a particular boss in Zelda: Oracle of Seasons that I absolutely despise.

(Cut to 2:00 for the actual boss and not the annoying mini boss)

I know now that he's just a glorified Chu Chu, but at the time, I really could not figure out how to beat him. I eventually gave up on the game for an entire two years thanks to him. :cer_blankstare:

 

[Kylie-chan]

I'm rarely like that about video game characters, though I used to love to hate Kairi from Kingdom Hearts (I honestly felt she was a plot point more than anything, lol), but then I realised I basically see her as so insignificant that there's no point in hating on her!

Also, Roy, Eliwood, and Lyn from Fire Emblem: Fuuin no Tsurugi (Roy) and Fire Emblem (Eliwood and Lyn). Because they're lords, and useless, unlike, say, Ephraim from The Sacred Stones, or Hector the boss from FE7. Lyn is clueless in general ('Huh?' 'What?' are practically all she says... she practically exists as the prop for expository dialogue!) and can hardly hold her own in combat without excessive babying, the same going for Roy and Eliwood. Late promotions stunt any potential they have at all as promoted units as well.
