Personally, it’s Faith from Farcry 5 for me. Uninteresting dialog that can be summed up to “I was bullied once” and that’s it. Literally every other character is so much more interesting. Jacob gives you a sequence where you run through a gulag which he then uses against you, John tries to kill you and is openly hateful towards you plus is a character you get to interact with, and Joseph is a lunatic who was right.

    What?? Faith might be the only interesting character in the whole FC series. I don’t think you understand the character’s backstory at all, TBH. The original Faith was the Seeds’ sister who died young, so the brothers kidnap young women in the cult, drug them (I forget what the name of the drug is in the game), and convince them that they’re Faith Seed. Eventually that woman dies so they replace her with another. It’s horribly tragic and, in my opinion, is leagues above the standard character writing of the Far Cry games

      Yeah, I was puzzled when OP listed Faith as most annoying; I don’t think they paid attention to the story.

      I found her more interesting than many other Far Cry antagonists, let alone other video games characters.

    The stupid talking book in It Takes Two. Practically destroyed any plot momentum the game had and that’s if it wasn’t beating you over the head with painfully obvious relationship advice.

    I see none of you guys has played Resident Evil 4, otherwise we would be shouting “ASHLEY!” all together as one being.

    Literally every single character in the newest Pokemon game. The entire narrative is so god damned insufferable. I‘ll never buy another Pokemon game again unless it’s like Arceus and has less narrative.

        If you’re talking about the sandwich vendors, they were the worst. Everything about interacting with ingredient or sandwich vendors is soulless.

          No no, I mean this one story line with that guy that makes sandwiches to cure his mastiff!

          You’re right, those vendors were as soulless as my red-haired ex.

    That shithead skeleton from Undertale. If I an ever forced to play that game, it’s all genocide all day, idc that it’s the hardest mode. That game looks like ass and its fans are insufferable, but that fucking little skeleton deserves to be ground up and snorted.

    The first that comes to mind is the entire crew in Pikmin 4, and particularly Collin. Those little chatterboxes never ever shut up or cease giving you advice on things you already know how to do. I hate them so much.

      Never played the original, but she is so annoying in the remake and her motivation to gather materia is razer thin.

    Screwball in Spider-man for ps4/ps5. Everything about the character and challenges was just… not fun, and felt like such a waste of time

      The challenges in the DLC was straight bullshit most of the time.

      And I always hated what Spidey said whenever he didn’t get gold on any of them. Like why do you actually give a shit? She’s an actual insane person.

    Claire Redfield in darkside chronicles. I saw that ASS and that was the last I saw of it. Before Stellar Blade, there was Claire Redfield. Claire Redfield is awesome.
