Best NPC in any game

[spikespiegel]

Leader of the dark botherhood onoblivion. The bug that makes him säy "you are like a dark gift... ect" everytime you are anywhere near him. I know noone ells will understand that, but there were some bloddy hilarious situations with the bug last time I played it. Me and my mate litteraly cracked up EVERY time it happend

there are more, but thats what popped into my head first

I cant choose between Captn Price and Father Grigory.....agggghhhh. Looks like ill have to go with the Koreans in Crysis. Everything they said was Hilarious. 'I see you amewican pwig' Its (german) crytecs revenge for all the mangled german accents in games.

HK-47 & Sheogorath.

 

[Rudix]

Captain Macmillan from the sniper mission of CoD4. He's so manly im sure he has a hidden 3rd bicep somewhere. My love for him kind of dies a little when he manages to get hit in the face by a heli tho. I mean, he's a sniper for gods sake! How can he NOT see a chopper chasing his face?

Oh and Harold from F3! A happy reunion, well, sort of.

I really want to say Captain Price, but you play him in a mission, so no. So i'm going to go with... Nope, I can't do it, Captain Price it has to be.

Totally forgot about Price...the dude was in WWII AND shows up in Modern Warfare! I've seen him stand on grenades and run headfirst at people shooting at him, taking bullets in his chest left and right! Who doesnt want an immortal baddass dude with a mustache leading them into battle. (Although Jack bauer leading us in the pacific was a close second)

On that note I'll add Johnson from Halo into the badass unkillable soldier npcs group.

He ran headfirst because of the mustache, he kept extra ammo, guns, medkits and grenades in it beacause it was BULLETPROOF! They say the mustache has been around since the beggining of time and Price was chosen to wield it to protect the world, thus his presence in WWII. He only dies at the end of the game because all evil has been eradicated from the world and the mustache must travel back into the centre of the planet to await the time where its power is needed again.I think my vote for best NPC must be the mustache itself as Price was merely a host.

 

[GRAPPLION]

Every NPC in the KOTOR series are great characters.

 

[Malevolent Stranger]

Deckard Cain from Diablo.

Yerp.

 

[cowbell40]

The Goron Chief in Ocarina of Time is the best dancer of all time.

 

[TheCameraman]

Boyd from psychonauts. Awesome character.

 

[Scary_Bob]

R-109 in Timesplitters 3 (ok I know that you can play as him in 2 player but still), post getting that virus he becomes hilarious.

 

[fudgebo]

The other commandos in republic commando, a heavily under rated game in my opinion, they had state of the art AI and best of all you could leave them alone and they would kill all round them, not just run into a wall or repeatedly yell the current objective over and over and over again.

 

[Viggo]

The whole cast from Armed and Dangerous. Good game that one.

-off-topic: I see I'm not the only one with a Hey Arnold avatar anymore. Time to look for something else.

And you picked SWAT kats. Nice!

 

[ElTigreSantiago]

Dom from Gears
Reaver in Fable II
Alyx from Half Life
Fawkes in Fallout 3 (All the other followers were useless. After 110+ hours with Fawkes, I built a bond.)

I don't know why you guys all love MacMillan, the guy got hit by a chopper that a 3 year old could have avoided.

 

[TheFacelessOne]

Cortana, Canderous Ordo

I don't think you can really count Cortana as an NPC, since you didn't physically see her outside of cutscenes.

Anyways.

Either Wrex or HK-47.

(Call me dumb, but I think I just realized Wrex is a spiritual successor to HK-47.)

EDIT: Everybody from Armed and Dangerous. Especially the one eyed old man. (I forget his name.)

God, that scene where he convinced the soldiers to run away by telling them their French...classic.




...And your all dirty meatbags!

 

[Mirroga]

Alyx or GLaDOS

Ditto

 

[Iammatt]

thrall in CoT durnholde in world of warcraft.hes the only escort that is actually useful and doesnt get himself killed.

 

[Adaephon]

the pipot in the pot from lost odyssey

 

[Bobtowna]
