Who did you most enjoy killing in a game?

[flying_whimsy]

Not a specific example, but rapists.
Any kind of rapist will do, but the most enjoyable are non-apologetic kind, the ones who go as far as being proud of their deed.
For example Cook-Cook from FONV.
Open battle with .50 cal explosive round to the head (and close it immediately)
Then drag the body to nearest fire, undress the body, dismember him and throw every piece into the fire.
Nothing short of overkill will do job properly.

P.S. And before someone tries to psychoanalyze me- no, I have never been raped, neither anyone dear to me has. While I don't think it is the worst crime human can commit, it is definitely among the most disgusting ones.

I know how you feel. I have a monstrous hatred towards slavers and rapists in general and I really get to indulge that in bethesda games. It's actually at the point where I typically don't even talk to raiders or slavers even if they aren't hostile: I just start shooting or stabbing my way through them in a blind rage. The legion in fonv is an instant kill thing for me, and I love getting to kill caesar on his throne (last time I planted an explosive in his pocket and he just sat there). In FO3 I did an entire sidequest by accident because I massacred a slaver camp. I never learn names, I never talk to them, and I never leave any survivors.

I swear that's the only time I'm ever like that, too; the rest of my life I'm a carefree, talkative kind of guy.

I'm not sure I have any characters that I really hate and enjoy seeing bite it; although killing the boss alien in saints row iv was pretty awesome.

The first time I played Dragon Age: Origins, I had zero issue killing Loghain and felt some strange sense of revenge and payback because of all the shit he pulled.

Oh man, I totally forgot about him. Yeah, I never hesitated to off that bastard; he nearly doomed everyone with his stupid lust for power. And then his daughter had the gall to get self-righteous about my murdering the bastard when she had to marry the pretty boy. It was tempting to have her executed, too.

Kefka from FFVI, hands down. If there was anyone as mildly infuriating as his character, I haven't run across it yet.

Albedo from Xenosaga does roll in a close second, though, he is such a wank.

 

[Vigormortis]

Honestly? No one.

I've never actually enjoyed killing any character in a game. Even the worst of the worst, from the bottom-of-the-barrel knuckle-draggers to the cartoonishly evil pricks who make a point of being the biggest pieces of shit possible. The act just doesn't make me happy.

That said, I'll admit to deriving some catharsis from killing certain characters. Some game enemies can be very aggravating, so 'offing' them can give some emotional relief.

The Hunters from the Prototype series are a good example. While not too tough on their own, when they attack in large packs (especially during hectic crescendo events or boss battles) they can be really dangerous. And annoying as hell.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Darth Malik from Kotor killing and reassuming the throne as Darth Reven was really satisfying the boss fight was fun too from what I remember and Darth Treya from Kotor II killing them was fun and let my characters come full circle it was nice.

Character I wish I could kill? definitly Delphine from Skyrim fuck that *****.

 

[Barbas]

(Snip).

Huh. Okay. The way you describe it there, it sounds more like culling or garbage disposal.

 

[Silverbeard]

Whoreson Junior from the Witcher 3.
Geralt begins by beating the ever loving shit out of the bastard, then explains, very calmly, why Whoreson will NOT lie to him and then the player has the option to gut the psycho. Even for Witcher 3 sensibilities, Whoreson is a legitimately evil sumbitch (he buys whores and then tortures them to death in stomach-churning ways, among other things) and taking the option to smear his guts on Geralt's sword is very satisfying.

I'd been doing a fairly pacifist run up until then, but shit was ON from that point forward.

Me too! I'd been trying to play Geralt as a remorseful killer(i.e, avoiding human or non-human death where possible) but I didn't hesitate for even a moment when it came to Whoreson.

However, sticking with the Fallout theme--Caesar, and his smug fucking spy, whatever his name was, the one you encounter in Nipton.

Ah Caesar... Hacking his Auto Doc while having the Bloody Mess perk, making him explode into chunks, then telling his guards that he died of bleeding because he was old.

Classic Fallout.

I honestly enjoyed killing every major faction leader in New Vegas, except House, because atleast he is polite to you (unless you push his buttons), as you should be with your friendly neighbour cyborg mailman.

 

[lacktheknack]

Ahahahaha killing people. Gross.

I'll go with Gehn from Riven - the smug bastard holds an entire civilization hostage and is hell-bent on murdering his own kid. He's so incredibly insufferable in the game and expanded lore books, too. So when you catch him in a prison book, where he'll rot forever? So much satisfaction.

 

[KoudelkaMorgan]

Recently it was throwing General Oliver off the Hoover Dam in New Vegas to finish my Hardcore Wildcard run.

Killing the optional final bosses in the Etrian Odyssey games is always an accomplishment.

 

[Barbas]

Well, I really mean NPCs in general. Not even in something like Killing Floor 2? :I

Interesting. If you were given the choice of either executing each enemy you crossed paths with in an RPG (let's say The Witcher in this case) or sending them to live out their lives in the game's prison system, which do you think you'd go with?

For a general, that man came across as being so incompetent and obstinate that I wondered whether hurling him off the top of the dam actually handed victory of a sort to the NCR.

I play, like, no violent games anymore. At all. Mostly economic sims, adventure games and puzzle games.

Arrest, every time, unless I don't get the XP or something.

That fucker Nazi scientist from Wolfenstein the New Order. Oh man that dude, everything he did just served to make me eager to stab his ass.

 

[Michel Henzel]

Ashley from mass effect 1. She killed Wrex, i liked Wrex. So given the chance you bet my ass i left her on that planet to die. It was no contest.

While I managed to prevent Wrex dying, I still wanted her dead as well and also jumped at the chance to kill her off. Such are rare treat that a game lets you kill off a character on your team that you despise.

 

[Karlmarcx]

I know the game is about killing, but AC2 really got this one in for me. A rare gem of elaborate, well-built plot and storytelling among the series, in which avenging your family while getting Renaissance Northern Italy rid of it's greatest assholes is one of the most captivating experiences I've had in gaming.

Also, the end of Spec Ops : The Line. I would have shot both these assholes if I could have.

 

[the December King]

It was in Skyrim, the quest called The Horn of Jurgen. Without getting too deep into the specifics, Delphine, the co-owner of an inn, was more than she seemed, and I found her wasting of my time to complete the quest, along with her attitude, most irritating. As soon as I had a clear shot, my Argonian barbarian crushed her skull.

Ruined the quest tree, but I felt better at the time.

 

[SantoUno]

In Skyrim, when...

Spoiler

we find Astrid burned alive and she reveals that she betrayed the Dark Brotherhood just to send you on a suicide mission because she was jelly that you were the rightful Listener.

I seriously wish there was a dialogue option telling her she was a spiteful ***** before you gave her the last shanking.

 

[renegade7]

Metal Face. Not sympathetic and redeemable like Egil (who is the main villain for most of the story), or a typical RPG final boss like Zanza who isn't directly involved with the story for long enough for you to develop any particular hatred towards, Mumkhar/Metal Face was just a shitty, petty, dick of a person whose every action warranted a thorough ass-beating.

The Rebel Flagship in FTL is a close second, especially on Hard Mode.

 

[FPLOON]

The NPCs in The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction mostly because of how the game treats them all like living objects that scream rather than crash and/or explode on impact...

Other than that, killing Jar Jar, C3PO, and/or R2-D2 in LEGO Star Wars... even if it's always temporary...

 

[Ravinoff]

Hm...definitely Kai Leng, in Mass Effect 3. I don't care how good your Shepard is, there are three Renegade interrupts you always take in Mass Effect: headbutting the Krogan who won't shut up on Tuchanka, putting a Carnifex round in that traitorous sonofabitch Udina (been wanting to do that since the first game), and snapping Kai Leng's stupid goddamn space katana before feeding him your omni-blade. Bonus points if Thane was alive on the Citadel to fight him.

Oh, you've played Riven?

But yeah... I don't know if I would wish Gehn's fate on my worst enemy. Do you realize he's going to be sitting in complete nothingness forever? Do you really think ANYONE deserves that forever?
