Worst video game characters.......ever!!!!

Duo_R · 03/26/2009, 03:10 AM

Post up video game characters that you thought were total shit and why you hated them.

I hate Chester from Ys III, Wanderers of Ys:

First look at the smirk on this guy's face. Just deserves to get slapped. I couldn't find a gif of him from the TG version, but he is just a total shit. The voice actor that played Chester on the TG-CD version made me REALLY hate this guy. He sounded like a little whiny bitch ass that you just wanted to beat to death with your shield.

PS - I know another member that can't stand this guy:

ParanoiaDragon · 03/26/2009, 12:11 PM

You'll be sorry to know that I think Chester is returning in Ys 7!

Lee's background and stage music are probably my favorite!! He's not that hard to beat... he can't block low!

Keranu · 03/26/2009, 05:30 PM

Haha, I hear you on, Chester. Maybe he was cooler in the non-Turbo ports/Japanese versions.

I'm sure I have a ton, which I might list later. Here is a good way to sum a lot up though: any non-SF2 Capcom and post-1997 Squaresoft characters.

Joe Redifer · 03/26/2009, 05:57 PM

I hate Chester mainly because of his US voice. I swear the actor responsible for him was reading the lines from a sheet for the very first time and they just recorded that and called it a day. Actually I doubt he was an actor. Probably just some random guy. I always cringed whenever he or to a lesser extent Dogi would speak.

quoth09 · 03/26/2009, 06:37 PM

You want bad voices? Go play Last Alert US. It makes me hate the whole game.

_{► /lastalert/clip2.mp3}

I'll throw you into the sea after I get you... WTF! That seriously makes me wanna do this =

Same goes for most of the Working Designs games voices. Fuck Jennifer Stigile and her shitty singing.

Voices on King of Fighters Maximum Impact on PS2 in the US was shit too. Same goes with Castle of Shikigami 2 US as well.

While I'm on the subject, I'm going to make another thread.

Keranu · 03/26/2009, 06:41 PM

The voice acting is one of the reasons why I love Last Alert! It's not just the over-the-top voice actors that make it so hilarious though, but the actual dialogue. Unlike Ys III where you're stuck with crappy voice actors + not so funny dialogue.

jboypacman · 03/26/2009, 07:15 PM

Johnny BazookaTone and BoogerMan come to mind for me....Just terrible characters(at lest to me they are lol).

What system is that for- and is the game terrible ? I actually have a fondness for squirrels. That little fella kind of reminds me of Wacky Squirrel from the Dark Horse comics-

He was a lot like Bugs Bunny with the constant line of gags- only more violent.

quoth09 · 03/28/2009, 06:21 AM

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Nutz

If I recall the game plays like Tails from Sonic 2, but with the ability to use your tail. It's a run of the mill platformer, but if I recall from the last time I played it, the game is sub-par at best.

But agreed, stupid name and stupid idea for a character.

Just like this shit: /2v9viaw.png

Bubsy Bobcat. Stupid character idea...what is this, a platformer for furries? As if Sonic wasn't enough? At least Sonic was somewhat cool, this is just rip off shit with a bad character design, and WTF, aren't we clever Accolade: 'He's a cat, let's give the player 9 lives!!! Oh and he has to have yarn to pick up instead of coins or rings!!! Yeah, and we can let the player pick up shirts with exclamation points on them for extra lives!!!'

No, that isn't clever Accolade. That quote I just put above sounds like a line from Family Guy. Whoever came up with this awful idea needed to be smacked senseless, as if they weren't senseless enough already, from the obvious notion that they came up with this garbage bin of a character. I mean seriously, did they poll children in middle school for this shit?

What is even worse is the fact that people bought into the idea, and with all hunger and greed for money, they made SEQUELS...

Not 1, not 2, not just a 3rd one on Jaguar, as well as a port of the 2nd one on Gameboy, but a fucking 3D one...that was even more ASS than the first 4, and yes, I have played it. Don't even get me started on the box covers for the various parts where he looks on crack 1 time, and then high the next.

AVGN needs to review that 3D one just so I can relish in the fact he hates it too. Seanbaby named it one of the worst 20 games of ALL TIME. Numerous other sites have called this game garbage as well, including this review of all 4 games on Hardcore Gaming 101: wayback.hg101.classicgaming/bubsy/bubsy.htm.

Apparently there was also going to be some animated show with this piece of shit as well that didn't get past the pilot. I don't want to even imagine what kind of garbage could have been thought up on that one...the whole thought of that is only even more downhill than the 3D game.

CrackTiger · 03/28/2009, 12:15 PM

I know that he's supposed to be someones's dad, but I really don't like the guy in Ghost Manor. He didn't look cool when the game was released and he only looks worse now. Especially dropped into a game like GM where he moves around like he does.

The main character and most of the characters in Beyond Shadowgate look terrible and just like doodles from someone's high school notebook, only worse because now they're in color.

The main character and his buddies in Loom look pretty lame how they were executed. A hooded cloaked character with glowing eyes may not be original, but at least it usually looks evil instead of dorky and straight out of a kids show like Barney.

I dislike many euro designed characters from the 16-bit generation, and to a lesser extent, American designed game characters.

Baby Joe is gross.

I've never liked the look of the Lemmings. They look like kids in pajamas from a government funded Italian cartoon or something.

Wonder Dog just screams 'hurtin' character design'.

Soccer Kid is like an un-character. They developer was like "let's make a platformer in which a kid plays soccer!", "Okay what should he look like?", "I don't know, how about some kid who plays Soccer!"

The unicycles from Uniracers is another un-character design. It was like they were purposely trying to make the game appear as unexciting as possible.

I hated Secret of Evermore as a game, but even if it had been awesome all the characters would still be as ugly and unprofessional looking.

Chaz/Rudy(?) is almost enough to ruin Phantasy Star IV.

Sinistron · 03/28/2009, 12:28 PM

The Ghost Manor character (Arthur?) amuses the fuck out of me because it looks 110% like a friend of mine's husband- he's a nice guy and treats the girl nice but he's a bit on the schmucky side. His face, clothes, hair, smile and walk are a dead ringer for the guy from Ghost Manor. I've shown this kid and his wife Ghost Manor several times- she found it pretty fucking funny- he just stands there and then starts rattling off his favorite Genesis games- unrelated to anything- telling me that yeah he knows it's a lock and he'd rather change the subject. Regardless- I think of Ghost Manor as one of the unsung heroes of the US turbochips- definitely one of my favorites. When I get enough free time I really need to play to the end again and finally beat the flying skull- I was a bit too excited when I reached him and played against him poorly- and he didn't even seem that difficult. The big pain in the ass for me will be figuring out the maze of doors in the haunted house levels all over again- I recall some of those doors sending you back to the beginning of the game.

Keranu · 03/28/2009, 11:18 PM

Final Fantasy VII. A magnificent game. Really, it's great. However there were a few problems I had with a few characters:

Vincent - This is the biggest culprit of them all. The thing is, he's a secret character, so that kind of excuses what I am about to say about him, but it still hasn't stopped emo Squeers from falling in love with the guy. The problem with Vincent is the dialogue. I purposely avoid having him in my party just for the fact that everything he says is so boring and generic, or he just won't talk at all. The guy has one helluva outfit design, but he has absolutely ZERO personality. He does have some interesting sidestory stuff, but for the most part he just stands around saying crap like "Interesting", " We should head towards Midgar then", and of course "...". Really, this guy's a dud to be with. He's wearing the right getup, but his dialogue does not match it whatsoever.

Sephiroth - Similar to Vincent in that he's all fashion, but no good dialogue to back him up. It's especially more important with Sephiroth since he's the villain, but his lines come off too much like the typical villain. By the way he looks and moves, I would expect a more of a smooth, intelligent, laid back villain kind of dialogue, but instead he's more of a "The whole world will be mine and you will all die! Mwahahaha!" badguy. Another thing that bothered me was how he never got to first hand confront him very much in the game and when you did, it wasn't as exciting as the stuff he did in all the flashbacks. In fact, somewhat early on in the game, like around the beginning of disc 2 I think, he just seals himself away and you never see him again until the very end. At least you had lots of other great villains to fill in for him until then and when you do see him again, he comes back with a bang.

Cloud - Cloud has the great design like the other two characters mentioned, but DOES have the great dialogue to back him up. The problem I have with Cloud though is the lack of oomph in his character development. Anyone who's played through the game knows that Cloud goes through some pretty big shit, so when it comes to the point of him discovering his past and who he really is, he doesn't really show any change afterwards. He's still mostly the same sassy, laidback dude as before instead of the real, motivated hero he should be. His attitude does show some change, but I just feel it wasn't as much as it should've been (nor do I think it should've been overdone either, of course).

CrackTiger · 03/29/2009, 01:17 AM

I thought of FFVII as well, particularly Cloud and Sephiroth. Although I think the game, especially the story and characters are hugely overrated, they're still far from the worst for me.

Another couple I couldn't stand are Hiro and Lucia from Working Designs' Lunar EB Sega-CD. I don't remember if their dialogue itself was annoying, but I hated their voices/acting. I haven't played the Playstation version, but I don't think that they seemed bad in the japanese Saturn version. It really was enough to ruin those characters for me to the point where I was hoping for Lucia to get killed off or taken away for the rest of the game.

Keranu · 03/29/2009, 01:39 AM

Oh yeah, I wouldn't consider any of those FFVII characters I posted as the worst (well maybe Vincent), but I just wanted to poke at them since they are so highly regarded. They would be among my top most disappointing characters list probably.

The only thing that really kept me going in the game was the materia system... i had some fun with that. Other than that I thought the game totally sucked. I particularly hated the graphics because I couldn't tell where I was supposed to be going.

FFVII had a similar effect on me, except that I enjoy the game on its own. I was SO disapointed at how streamlined it was, particularly having very little slots for equipment, how the characters were almost identical gameplay-wise, having to trek across huge areas without actually doing anything so often, so many lame characters, ebonics through dna, the unskippable dialogue that was boring and went no where... and I really didn't like the execution of the story. Overall it was disappointing in almost every aspect both as a FF game and as the first CD FF game. I tried FF VIII, IX and X, but I really didn't like VII and X and IX in japanese was just boring. So FFVII was the beginning of the end of FF for me.

However... I still got a lot of enjoyment out of it. I played both the Playstation and PC versions to death and even though there are some stretches that really should've been cut or opened up, as a RPG lover I couldn't help but have fun with it as just another RPG. With that said, there are probably 100 32-bit and earlier RPGs I'd rank ahead of it. So I find it crazy that FFVII still ranks at the top of most all-time game and/or RPG lists.

The worst thing about FVII is that ever since, every other player on every online video game since is named Sephiroth(insert number).

It took waaaaaaay too long!! I remember the first time fighting him I got up to cook a hot pocket the second or third time he used that ability. The worst thing was that he was so easy!

I can't remember what I did when he lost the rights to Lunar (little known fact: He lost them because the creator of Grandia II knows english, actually played his translations and told the GameARTS boss of the real content.)

I was freelancing for Enix at the time and was handed in some nice insider info from another (very reliable, very prolific) freelancer with contact with Vic.

Back in the 90s I was in contact with Vic and all the people I worked with on a UK gaming mag (Sega Power) hated WD translations, so I was talking with Sega Europe about freelancing them an entire translation for the UK market.

And Vic told me point blank WD had bought out all the rights to Lunar for 10 years and that nobody would EVER be able to produce a shoddy, non WD hackjob because he would see to it personally that he owned Lunar and renewed the license, that even Gamearts could not revoke said license.

They're pronouncing it Loon are because that's how its pronounced. Did you play the game? They say Loon are in the game itself. They say it in Japanese that way too.

Monga is relatively close to the proper pronunciation: "Mahnga", its just with a nasally middle aged white dude flair.

I think your fucktard and cum sucking assface commentary is a bit ignorant and flawed dude.
