Video Game Characters that it Would Suck to be

[LiberalSquirrel]

They do, if you listen, but who's gonna argue with a dude in power armor who can flip a tank?

OT: Tidus from FFX. Seriously, watching the place you grew up and lived in get turned into rubble, then finding out you're not even real? Bummer.

I was going to say this. Also, Lulu from FFX as well. Simply because you'd have this...

Spoiler

...as your love interest.

 

[The Night Shade]

Mario because he's stuck doing the same thing over and over again

 

[Dexter Willett]

Link from Zelda (who else, now that I think about it?). I know what you're thinking: "Say WHAAAAAAAT?" I'll give you two words why I would hate to be Link:

"Hey, listen!"

 

[Raizekage]

I'd say any human from the cast of Left for Dead. That is my nightmare scenario. Zombie apocalypse attacking me, sure in the games you have weapons to defend yourself but in my dreams I usually don't have weapons and the zombies are immortal.

 

[Infernai]

ANYONE in Drakengard.

Junky Dante from the new style DMC. He looks like he's in pain.

Final Time: That characters name is Kevin.

 

[F-12]

I would have to say . . . Alan from Alan Wake
He's a drunk, lazy ass writer, and a douche. And he has to deal with Barry and his talk ALL day

 

[ShatterPalm]

The closest I can come to is Eliwood from Fire Emblem. It's a brilliant game, so check it out if you're into strategy and haven't heard of it already.

Anyways, his father disappears, then dies in his arms, then he kills his girlfriend, then if she doesn't decide to stay she wanders back to the dragon realm.

While I'm at it, Nils had it just as bad in a way. yeesh, that game is kind of evil to it's characters.

 

[Rattler5150]

the player from Quake4 he gets strogged

legs cut off, organs removed,,

 

[adragonofgold]

The Adoring Fan - I would have to kill myself.

"By Azura! By Azura! By Azura!"

 

[Sinclair Solutions]

Isaac Clarke. The shit he goes through would be too much for any normal man.

 

[Shakomaru]

Pokemon. Not the trainers, the 'mons themselves. Yeah, you get awesome superpowers, but you get smacked in the head with a baseball and suddenly you have to obey a ten-year-old or live in a computer box for the rest of your life. That certainly sucks.

Anyone in Resident Evil (except Wesker). Zombies. Freaking Zombies... plus no weapons and ammunition. And what is your reward? anonymity/cover-up and a lousy government paycheck. F that.

Mario. Going to the bathroom must be a nightmare in a world where squatting on pipes sucks you through them.

Superman. On the one hand... you're freaking SUPERMAN. On the other hand, you have to live inside horrible game worlds. You think it's bad to play Superman games, imagine how horrible it must be to live in one. Speaking of...

The Desert Bus driver. The worlds most boring game. A game so terrible, LoadingReadyRun and friends hold a "Survivor" reality show/telethon to see how long they can stand to play it (for charity, of course!) Imagine not being able to leave... forced to drive that bus through the desert, no landmarks, no destination, nobody else to talk to, no towns to stop in... forever. *shudder*

Arguments to your case.
1. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. Or, as I like to call it, "What happens when Team Plasma wins" The pokemon know that humans exist, but they have been separated for a long time.
2. I agree. Silent hill would suck. Especially since I'm scared by everything.
3. He DESERVES IT. Because He's mario.
4. Can't argue, I have no idea what happens in those games.
5. The driver of the bus is C'THULU.... umm Yeah. I'm done here.
OP Being Robotnik's robots/Robotnik himself.

 

[Xman490]

Prometheus, if he counts, seeing as how he's in God of War 2 briefly. He has his liver pecked out by an eagle every morning, then his flesh is regenerated.

Prometheus was punished by the gods for giving the gift of knowledge to man. He was cast into the bowels of the earth and pecked by birds.
It won't be enough.

 

[Backstabber]

I think it would be terrible to be a Sim. Your whole life is being controlled.... Ugh.

 

[Andothul]

Commander Shepard,

not only does he have the weight of humanity on his shoulders, but the whole damn Milky Way Galaxy.
That would be way to much for me to handle i think.

Miranda and Tali bouncing around YOUR spaceship? Pfft. As if that'd be difficult.

Lol true guess i didn't think about all the hot space ass i'd get

 

[Nulmas]

Ignus from Planescape: Torment, burning forever while never dieing would suck.

Being the Nameless One would actually be worse, for obvious reasons

 

[Jimmybobjr]

Anyone in any Horror game ever.

 

[Qtoy]

Most of the Fallout: New Vegas companions
Lily
Boone
Christine
Raul

All of these companions have been screwed over in life and by being born in post-apocalypse-land.
Honestly, a lot of them apply given they all have problems, but those are the most screwed-over-by-life companions.

It won't be enough.

Won't be enough for what?

And in the version I've read (Prometheus Bound, God of War 2) he was punished for giving man the gift of fire, and sent to the top of a mountain. What birds visit the bowels of the earth?

 

[Fanfic_warper]

The main characters from Bioshock 1 and 2. No character, no voice, no nothing, just a sack of flesh taking up space.
