Which videogame characters really got to you when you were playing a game? I'm talking about the ones that you were fuming as they played their roles, and felt relieved once you were done with them.
The one that comes to mind is Zagi, from Tales of Vesperia. He was the most recent addition to my long list. He is arrogant, foolhardy and persistent, even when it's obvious that he is at a disadvantage and that nobody really cares about his ambitions in the big picture.

Raijin/Rai as he appears in KH2 (I've never played FF so I don't know if he's the same there or not.) GUUHHH! For such a useless character, he really PISSES ME OFF! Mostly it's because of the way he talks. "Tournament decides, ya know?" "We'll win, ya know?" "Seifer's not feelin' so hot, ya know?"
Yeah, in my mind, when I'm playing that part, Roxas pulls out a rocket launcher and rips a hole through Rai's stomach with a projectile...ya know? -_-

RINOA, she is the WORST character that Square has ever had the audacity of making (then again as a rule of thumb I shouldn't expect anything nice from them in terms of characters :\). She's useless, bitchy, a MARY SUE for her "story contributions" and makes me HATE my own gender OR swim to Japan so I can brutally HIT whoever thought she was a good addition to a GAME. Never before have I felt so much rage, enough that I would want to plow my hand through the screen and somehow TEAR OUT HER OVARIES AND FIND OUT HOW MANY WAYS THERE ARE TO KILL SOMEONE WITH THEIR OWN REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS. I feel much better now though.  Though that Kairi is rapidly approaching Rinoa-level, she just manages to have even less personality and does it in the color of PINK. |

Whoa ... A lot of hate for some characters I wouldn't expect ...
Let's see, a character I utterly despise in a video game ...
Wait, I have to think? I've played a Naruto game! I shouldn't even have to think to come up with one! Hands down, Naruto is the video game character I absolutely utterly despise more than any other. He's so incredibly stupid. Don't get me wrong, the series had excellent promise in the beginning, but it just got worse and worse as it went along and is just a complete and utter waste of brain cells, nearly to the point of Flapjack, Chowder, Family Guy, Beavus and Butthead, American Dad, King of the Hill and The Simpsons. Any and every Naruto game I've seen has only made it worse by being completely pandering fanservice garbage, contributing nothing to the series and only highlighting the stuff that ruins it.

Now now, with the Simpsons you can get some interesting literature jokes if you read a lot of books, though recent episodes suggest otherwise. AND YOU DON'T BE-FREAKING-LIVE IT? |

Naruto: Believe it!
Star: Believe this. *socks him in the face and knocks him unconscious*
Does that answer your question? ;D

Yeah, in my mind, when I'm playing that part, Roxas pulls out a rocket launcher and rips a hole through Rai's stomach with a projectile...ya know? -_- Sorry to reply oddly spaced to this, but Raijin acts pretty much the SAME, except he is OLDER and more/less pixeled and is only fought ONCE. HE FIGHTS WITH A PADDLE, A PADDLE. EDITED FOR TRUTH!? According to Ninmast you fight him several times, personally I only recall one fight, I recall more fights with Seifer. He also fights with a kind of staff, though to my fuzzy memory I remember snorting at his weapon because of how it looked. There is one 'good' side though to the Fuujin Raijin rights however, you can get a GF from one of them at some point. c_c Naruto: Believe it! Star: Believe this. *socks him in the face and knocks him unconscious* Does that answer your question? ;D It's only annoying in English, I swear. And a random FYI, not a fan of Naruto and I can still attest to this. Would you care to elaborate on some of the odd character-hate choices that surprised you? |

Raijin and Sonic, actually. Though you're incorrect about the former. You fight him multiple times and he uses a bo staff, not a paddle. Just a little clarification there. Though personally, I found his idiocy amusing.

I think Raijin is only amusing in text-format, in KH2 I wanted to punt him across the station. His voice seems to be the annoying part of him, it just sounded so forced ya know?

*shakes fist* I'll beat you some day, I swear it... Good sir, I have no idea what that image means.... do you hate ipods? Yes I do but that not being remotely the point, and since the picture showed up fine on my computer at home and yet not here in class, I was, thankfully, able to understand what you were on about. Conversely, as opposed to being "smart" (to put things in peachy terms), you could simply say "the link is broken", and I would have immediately been able to understand and rectify the issue, even without having known there was an issue in the first place. Related to my number one "I hate you" choice is the zig-zagged tetris block; the little bugger gave me no end of grief. |

Ooooh, yes, and it was particularly attached to me. "Give me blocks, give me towers," I said, and it replied, "NUUUUUUUU! I don't want to let you go!"

Exactly; I would have done fine with all "L" and "T" blocks even, but noooo...I swear, the game's purposefully made to give you nothing but "Z" blocks anywhere past level 8.
