Most annoying minor characters

[MammothBlade]

Are there any characters who you only see for a short time, but who you end up hating for the rest of the game?

For me, it's got to be Goldanna from Dragon Age. She had no right to treat her brother like that and then tell him to get out. What a rotten harlot. I'm glad I didn't have 15 sovereigns on me. All the while, I wanted to go back and make good on my threat to cut out her tongue.

Adoring Fan from Oblivion

 

[Kahunaburger]

Sandal, Dragon Age. Bioware never fails to bring the unfunny, and it's particularly awkward when they seem to think that a mentally disabled kid is inherently humorous.

 

[ChupathingyX]

Mayor McCready from Fallout 3.

Whoever at Bethesda was responsible for his creation needs to be given the "Tsar Nicholas II treatment".

 

[Eddie the head]

Captain Copernicus Leslie Qwark. But he can be funny as well.

 

[Z of the Na'vi]

I'm surprised nobody has said Navi yet.

 

[ZehMadScientist]

The Turian council member.

Hey, he is relatively minor, right (To Shepard, at least)? And he certainly is annoying, I say he qualifies.

 

[Wuffykins]

Noober.


I swear, I don't think I made it through one playthrough without ever attacking that guy.




(I'll now mention he's from Baldur's Gate for the very few who don't recognize that name.)

 

[Don Savik]

Pick a character from any Final Fantasy ever. At random. There.

/thread.

 

[MaCaulay]

Adoring Fan from Oblivion

Took the words right outta my mouth

 

[Tony2077]

The Turian council member.

Hey, he is relatively minor, right (To Shepard, at least)? And he certainly is annoying, I say he qualifies.

i agree i can't wait to mock him about the reapers being real

 

[TehCookie]

Farlene from Star Ocean 3. I want to punch my TV every time she opens her mouth.

 

[Dirty Hipsters]

Moria. I blew up Megaton just to kill her, and it STILL didn't work.

 

[Ch@Z]

That hag that lived in Shani's house in the first Witcher.


Skip to 0:23.

 

[IBlackKiteI]

That dude from Stalker who keeps saying "I said come in, don't stand there!"
In rather hilarious contrast to the guy who says "Get out of here stalker!"

 

[endtherapture]

Sandal, Dragon Age. Bioware never fails to bring the unfunny, and it's particularly awkward when they seem to think that a mentally disabled kid is inherently humorous.

There are some interesting theories about Sandal like that he has the soul of an Old God, and is the first magical dwarf since forever.

 

[EHKOS]

Captain Copernicus Leslie Qwark. But he can be funny as well.

I know. I hate him one minute and am laughing the next. Everytime he screws R&c over I want to kill him and then later on I think "why would I do that I would miss him". And then I am reminded five minutes later.

 

[Dethenger]

Shaun Hastings from Assassin's Creed. Seriously. I love the games so much; why does he have to exist? It's not that he's a dick, it's that he's a dick for like, no reason. And he's not funny about it.

-gets stabbed-

"Ow...!"

"OH WHAT ARE YOU A LITTLE CHILD?"

Desmond, too, because up to this point I do think he's been a minor character; he's not even on the cover art. And even if he is a major character, I certainly wish it weren't so. He's boring. I'm just glad neither of these two get much screen time.

 

[Blunderboy]

Noober.


I swear, I don't think I made it through one playthrough without ever attacking that guy.




(I'll now mention he's from Baldur's Gate for the very few who don't recognize that name.)

That guy is such a prick. Gah.
I much prefer Biff the Understudy.

OT - Seconding Noober here, even though his job was to be annoying.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

Sandal, Dragon Age. Bioware never fails to bring the unfunny, and it's particularly awkward when they seem to think that a mentally disabled kid is inherently humorous.

But he's super magical! Don't you notice how he always kills everyone who tries to kill him?! THAT'S the funny part! [/sarcasm] I know what you mean about Sandal and really, it's more sad than annoying for me. Enchantment?

I'm surprised nobody has said Navi yet.

There is a 70% chance that as I type this, somebody else will mention Fii from Skyward Sword who is far worse than Navi. Unlike Navi, Fii doesn't help with targeting either: she just lives in your sword and speaks the obvious in a slow monotone that just makes me want to punch something.

Hell, my response is Fii. Yeah, she's a support character but if you ignore her (except for the parts where she forces herself to talk at you) then it's possible to see other, less horrible characters more like the horny item-storage girl, the big item-upgrade man or, the demonic person who wants to be a friendly human.
