The best NPC character ever.

[Ponce Master-General]

Yusuf Amir from The Ballad of Gay Tony. Seriously, no discussion. That guy is so fucking cool! I mean, he is a drug user and whatnot, but he's so awesome. I mean, who else is cool enough to have a solid gold phone? No one, that's who! Yusuf Amir is the fucking man, even though he likes to use the n-word a lot. He don't mean nothing by it.

Also, "Bring it on, motherbitches!" is the most badass thing ever spoken.

We're gettin' Arab money! With a golden Uzi!

 

[Bobic]

I think the best NPC ever would have the decency to put on some trousers.

 

[Chucksprung]

"Stay awhile and listen!"

 

[Haydyn]

Reaver from Fable 3. Everything about him screams douchey asshole, but that's why people like him.

ZING!

Anyways, my vote is for HK-47 from SW: KotOR. "It's...just that you have all those squishy parts, Master. How the constant sloshing hasn't driven you mad I will never know."

 

[All Hail Lelouch]

Flute Boy in The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past.

All he wanted to do was play his flute!!! We need more NPCs like him, ones that evoke an emotion inside us.

 

[Shoelip]

The best Non-Player Character character?

Hm.

I guess it'd either have to be Minsc from Baldur's Gate, Morte from Planescape: Torment, LeChuck from Monkey Island, or Crow from The Longest Journey. I can't really decide... Those are the first to pop up but honestly I can't decide.

 

[Fr]anc[is]

I believe this is relevant

 

[Lma0nade]

L Block

 

[Mesca]

"Ello Stran-jah! Woddya buyin? Woddya selling? Ah, I'll buy that atta high price!"

That guy was the cherry on the hot fudge sundae that was that game.

 

[L3m0n_L1m3]

Alistair and Morrigan from Dragon Age.

Also Mordin from ME2.

It's a 3 way tie.

 

[Snork Maiden]

I'll just leave this here...

 

[pezwitch]

Zevran and Shale from DA:O.

"Can you smell that? Like rotting flesh. Now if only you could find me a prostitute or two, a bowl of fish chowder and a corrupt politician, I'd really feel like I was home!" - Zevran

"Now, let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?" - Shale

Edited to add:

Although it might be Sandal.... "Enchantment!"

 

[Xaositect]

Hmm, Morte was pretty effin epic.

Viconia is just like a justification for in-game romances in one character.

Minsc, HK-47, and as much as I hate to admit it from a game as badly done on the character front as ME2 (at least if you look beneath the surface) Mordin are all great examples of the characters who carry a lot of the team comic relief (and do it well).

I dont know really, I think rather than decide if they should be declared the best, Im just happy that for now at least NPCs like this can stil pop up in games.

 

[Ninonybox_v1legacy]

well....i can think of 2 that i really like.


Alyx Vance

Viktor Reznov

 

[Th37thTrump3t]

There was a character in borderlands that actually called itself an NPC... I think it was Dr. Zed. Don't quote me on that though. Cookie for whoever can tell me!

 

[DaJoW]

L Block

Line Piece is way better than L Block.

Line Piece is way better than L Block.

DONT TALK SHIT ABOUT L BLOCK!

 

[imnot]

Reaver from Fable 3. Everything about him screams douchey asshole, but that's why people like him.

FInally I Knew I couldnt be the only one who adores that arsehole!
Besides, Stephen Fry.

 

[pletschee]

"Get up..... SO I CAN KILL YOU AGAIN!" SGT Johnson, the Halo series, technically you can play as him in ODST firefight, but I count him as an NPC
