Aiden Pierce is 10,000 times worse than Delsin, but yeah, I don't get why video game designers have so much trouble not making their heroes obnoxious douches.

I don't like the way NuGarrett always wears his mask down. It frames his face in such a weird way. But I barely felt like he was a character at all. He likes stealing, and that's about it. There's no reason for him to be detached and anti-social like the original Garrett, he's occasionally a little snarky but that's about it. And then the player is expected to care about Erin even though she's done nothing but be an asshole to Garrett and kill a completely innocent guard. Just so many inexplicable characterization choices, he feels less like an unlikable character and more like just not a character.

Unfortunately, Loki from Bayonetta 2 is the worst , its no so easy for me to choose him , as i love his design , mostly when he has the hood, the squirrel, his stupid triangle, little letters on his clothes, even his voice i could tolerate.
But he is awful, he ruins Bayonetta character by basically making her submissive to him, he swears a lot, and is annoying on gameplay, calling Bayonetta everytime he is with her, in the end he even steals the spotlight from Bayonetta.
Who knows maybe if they had made him a girl instead he would be better..

There is a reason she is the only character in the game that you can boot off the team after you recruit them. I haven't yet, but boy am I fucking tempted.

Is there even a video game character named Adam Baldwin, or is this a concerted effort to derail this thread? I'm so confused -_-
For me, Talion from shadow of mordor would have been the most forgettable character of 2014, were it not for him having the most punchable face in recent memory 
. Yet the wraith sidekick was somehow worse, being completely one dimensional, doing nothing other than spouting angry 'sauron is sooo evil you guys!' exposition at every opportunity.
It was a shame, as the enemies in the game just overflowed with variety and character.

I was so prepared to agree with that Watch Dogs douchebag but I'm at a loss for words. Adam is a real life acumbag so yeah, he was the worst character of 2014 by far.

Is an ironic, obviously wrong, self aware jab at this actor scum who singlehandely gave a name, and champions it to this day, to GAF's absolute Fail Of The Year (and my pick for the worst videogame related fail ever).
Adam himself helped destroy any meaningful conversation that couldve been had about journalistic ethics by derailing it all into harassment, vitriol and dumbass conspiracy theories which set our hobby back 15 years in the eyes of the mainstream.
Yes he's not a videogame character, but he is this year's worst videogames related character.

You can boot Cole as well.
This is a pretty good one.The Speaker in Destiny. In the first cutscene he says "Oh the stories I could tell you." He then basically tells you to F off and never tells you anything about the game again.
In other words he knows the missing plot of Destiny and is being a huge dick and not telling anyone.

Please guys, not another non-game thing. Gamer gate is nothing to do with actual videogames.
Aiden Pierce or that AssCreed guy that I don't even want to remember who keeps being a screw up in the story.
They got my vote.

I doubt turning him into a girl would have changed his personality or mannerism at all.

Pretty much.
No backstory at all, tells you nothing and fucks off after a view visits.

HAHA. I just finished today and while I didn't kick her, there were a LOT of times when I was just hovering over the kick option.
I'd have to go Sera or the Speaker in Destiny just because he's a d-bag.

Allowing him to play in Varric's
poker game was uncalled for.

The Dinklage. For such a prominent character through the game, he just really lacked something.
Yeah, this too.

Lol. This one gets my vote.
Describes a few characters honestly as far as the series goes.

I don't get it, he was so cool in 13-2 but suddenly he is so annoying in 13-3. He keeps telling you something without actually saying anything, so weird.
Give me a single reason why you think that Lightning is a bad character ? She is definitely my favourite this year, Ali Hillis did a stellar job with her again and she is a million times better than her japanese counterpart, maybe next time you should play with the english dub (which is better in about 95% of cases anyway)
btw. trying to insult a character by not using a capital letter is just weak.
