Who, in your opinion, is the most annoying character in any game? (lemmy.world)

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.

Unpopular opinion but Wheatley from Portal 2 can go breathe vacuum.

Not a fan of Steven Merchant and felt his voice acting was of placeholder-quality. Made the game considerably less enjoyable to play through with him desperately trying to be funny.

I should look for a mod, because even Gilbert Gottfried would be less irritating.

That game is a masterpiece and Wheatley was voiced perfectly! Fight me!

His annoyingness is part of the core plot. The progression works excellently.

"This guy's an idiot"
"This guy's an idiot, but funny."
"Ok, too much of idiot guy, I want glados back."
"Oh, hi glados"
Idiot guy gets really annoying.
Hey glados, can we go kill idiot guy together?"
Space Space SPACE, SPAAAAAAACCCCCCEEEEEE!!!!
