Good Video Game Characters That Most People Hate

List items

  • Big the Cat is a supporting character in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise who is best known for losing his only best friend, Froggy.

  • Delphine is a major character in the main storyline of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. For most of the main story, she serves as one of the main deuteragonists in search of trying to find the Dragonborn and healing her damaged clan, the Blades.

    What made Delphine unlikeable was that she attempts to make the player kill Paarthurnax, a loyal but yet mysterious and dark dragon who helped the player previously in the game. Some fans believe her to be arrogant, dim-witted, and just a straight-up “bitch”, but I think Delphine is just simply misunderstood. She is kind for the most part and has a grudge against the Greybeards, and makes a dumb decision to abandon the player if he doesn’t carry out with killing the dragon.

    Although Delphine makes some harsh calls, she is very loyal and sometimes kind. Additionally, although her character never grows, the player can learn a lot from her through some of her wisdom.

  • Princess Elise is a main, but unplayable protagonist in Sonic’s 15th anniversary title, Sonic the Hedgehog. She is a caring, thoughtful, and considerate Princess who is sadly the newest target for Doctor Eggman’s newest scheme - reviving Solaris.

    People mostly hate Elise due to the fact that she is helpless and cannot fight against Doctor Eggman, which is true on most levels, but how does someone like Elise actually fight a greater-evil with only her physical strength? Additionally, Elise is one of the very few Sonic characters to actually grow and develop during the course of a singular video game. Sonic Team, however, weren’t able to fix the bouncy plot due to meeting deadlines, but if they were able to hypothetically fix the game before it was released in 2006, Elise probably would’ve been more likeable and appealing to fans.

    The only major flaw in Elise’s character comes from the fact that her basic character is simply unoriginal. She’s the Princess Peach of the Sonic universe, in simple terms, but that doesn’t make her terrible. And, on top of that, I think what made me dislike Elise just slightly was that one conversation between her and Amy Rose, indirectly talking about their love-interests, Sonic the Hedgehog. Big mistake on Sonic Team’s part. Personally, I would’ve removed the scene altogether, altered the conversation, or basically make the moral of the conversation about “strong friendships” and not “love-interests”.
