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.
Fucking Claptrap…
I agree, but I do think that is kind of the point with him.
I do not get every other character’s willingness to overlook it and treat him like just another quirky member of the gang. I mean, Tanisha has no social skills but she’s at least clever and has some clear utility to the Raiders.
I realise that is the point, doesn’t make it any less annoying though!

Hey listen!
Bloody Paimon. (Genshin Impact)
And this is coming from someone who still logs on frequently. All I want is to mute her.
Paimon was a main reason I stopped playing.
there’s a character from Trials of Mana who talks like that & drives me wild. some people switch to the japanese voice cuz of how bad the VA is
Yeah I tried this with Genshin but she’s still as grating ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Mr clippy. Word was so much more fun without him, word isn’t very fun, without Mr clippy it might’ve been goty
That’s a tricky one, but if I had to pick, maybe Ashley from Mass Effect. She’s very insubordinate and disrespectful towards you, I hate her speciesism and (fittingly enough) she’s a Bible thumping Christian, whenever she opens her mouth I wish I could eject her through the airlock. It doesn’t help that you can’t deny her joining the team or even kick her out, safe to say that whenever I get to Virmire I always kill her without even thinking twice.
I’m replaying the Arkham series and I’d forgotten that Ashley’s VA plays Oracle. I couldn’t figure out why I was getting annoyed every time she called Batman until I made that connection.

It’s a pretty standard Turkish name, fyi
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.
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.
I see none of you guys has played Resident Evil 4, otherwise we would be shouting “ASHLEY!” all together as one being.
I forgot about Ashley. Literally lost just about all my ammo in one section trying to save her.
SHAUUUUUN
SHAAAUUUUUUNLEON! HELP ME LEON!
I haven’t played that in like 15 years and it was still the first game that came to mind. Mainly that one area. You know the one.
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.
That sandwich dude is pretty good written tbh
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.
Tingle can swing from my nuts
Wyll and Gale from BG3 were both suuuuuuper boring companions.
I had a bit of an inverse experience between the two. My gut reaction to Wyll was good, but his story made me dislike him, but Gale I disliked off the bat but came to appreciate after a bit of dialogue.
Wyll’s act 3 content feels so stupid, where he suddenly starts ego tripping and becomes less and less likeable. “The blade of avernus” my ass
Yeah for real, its almost impressive to give them the storylines they had but make them just so boring compared to big K
Natalya in Goldeneye.
My friends and I called all annoying companion/escort characters “Buttfuck”. Natalia was the buttfuckiest Buttfuck.
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.
Which one?
Lol right?
Borderlands 3 whatever that new siren girl’s name is
There were 2 characters in BL3 that were annoying, and no not the twins. Ava and Lorelei. Both extremely annoying.
Old man checking in here. Yuffie from ff7 was the most aggravating character ever
I was on Team Yuffie until
ffvii spoiler
she stole my fucking materia
Never played the original, but she is so annoying in the remake and her motivation to gather materia is razer thin.
Because of what you have to do to get her to join your party?
