Characters they need to kill off.

[TheLastSamurai14]

Outside of games, James Bond. That bastard should have been dead many times over... time to 'retire' this agent...

You can subscribe to the fan theory that each Bond (Brosnan, Moore, Connery) is in-fact a different 007 Agent that uses "James Bond" as a codename. Makes things alittle more interesting.

You can, yes, but that raises the question of a few minor plotholes, like certain Bonds remembering events that transpired under a different Bond. If you can ignore those, though, the theory is actually fairly airtight.

Doctor Who. Not only does he need to get killed off, he will. And then he will reincarnate. Again.

First, not to be anal or anything, but it's not Doctor Who. It's just the Doctor.

Also, the classic series has established that Time Lords can only regenerate 12 times, which means the Thirteenth Doctor may be the final one, assuming that the BBC adheres to the continuity as strictly as they claim to.

On a side note, though, why kill the Doctor? The show is still interesting and ratings are still extremely high.

Flip a coin on any given character I'd say. Can only add drama to the plot.

 

[Yopaz]

Can we please just let some unfortunate "accident" happen to Tingle?

Please?

PLEASE?!

It's not possible to make there be an unfortunate involving Tingle. He can end up in an accident, but there would be nothing unfortunate about it. That would be a Christmas miracle.

Honestly the characters I want to have removed are minor characters rather than those who carry a series. Though sometimes a series should end with the death of the main character because it fits in with the story.

Now so Charmy from the Sonic series is terrible. Big is terrible. Waluigi is OK, but I wouldn't miss him. Given some time I could think of a lot of characters that I wouldn't mind dying, but I am tired.

I really, REALLY don't want to re-hash my Kratos hate here, but yeah, he's my choice.

I'd be happy to see the end of Master Chief too, or Rico from the Killzone series. Since the whole Garza thin in Killzone 2 he's just annoyed me more and more with every passing objective. Guess that's why I liked Narville in 3. Always on Rico's back.

Hell fucking yes. Kill this son of a *****.

Spoiler

A short list of things Rico has done that have either cost people their lives or escalated the conflict to obscene levels.

-Almost executing Hahka when he was their informant, potentially stopping any chance of defeating the Helghast on Vekta.

-Breaking cover in a blind rage, alerting the guards and getting Garza killed when they could have taken Radec hostage.

-EXECUTING THE MAN YOU WERE SENT THERE TO ARREST SPECIFICALLY SO HE WOULD NOT BECOME A MARTYR, resulting in your remaining two cruisers, your only means of escape I might add, getting shot out of the sky by revenge hungry Helghast.

-Committing near genocide by irradiating a planet's atmosphere trying to stop one man.

There's probably more little shit things he's done, but these ones stand out.

Absolutely. I came here to say, off Rico, NOW! Glad to see I'm not the only one.

Seriously that thing with the Qunari book pissed me off. Causing a war to save your own hide? WHAT.
Of course my friendship wasn't high enough because I never bothered using her(Why would I want to use her over Varic? Come on.) And she wouldn't help me. And even if your friendship is high enough and you decide to get rid of her by giving her to the Qunari, BioWare rewards you with a rumour that she escaped anyway. It's like a slap in the face.

Sure she did a dick thing but dammit she caused the best conversation in the game.

Also my choice is for Nathan Drake, lets get someone who has some god damn originality for this fun franchise and maybe i'd pick it up again.

Can we please just let some unfortunate "accident" happen to Tingle?

Tingle makes far more sense within his cultural context. Originally, in Majora's Mask, he was a simultaneous reference to the "koibito" (children's character that gained popularity with adults, pretty much a Japanese equivalent of the "brony" phenomenom) and a rather scathing satire of the emerging social class of "hikikomori" (adult shut-in, usually a man-child). Unfortunately, like all characters Nintendo own, when completely out of ideas, they just grab characters and make them "cute". Urgh.

Of course, if they wanted a continually relevant social critic character, Nintendo would be best off silently retiring Tingle and dropping in an NPC pisstake of "genpatsu-kun" instead (nuclear power plant boy who keeps shitting himself).

I actually used to own a copy of the koibito book but I suspect I lost it on my travels somewhere. Thought it'd be a terrifying thing to leave on a coffee table for people to peruse.

 

[Guffe]

any character that is related to nintendo

I guess you're hoping for a rage quote from a fanboy?

On Topic:
I think they could make a Metroid 4 (huge fan of the series) and have Samus die. Not because I don't like her but they could make a final battle in one game so that a loved character won't come back, a really epic battle... like a get boss to 50% hp and then have a 10 minute animated battle were she dies. Would be so awesome
Otherwise not really sure... I don't want Link or Zelda to die and based on the last words of the God in Skyward Sword that won't happen. Also no way Nintendo is killing of Mario, Kirby or DonkeyKong. Maybe Falco from StarFox? He's not the main char but he could get a heroic death.

 

[Avalanche91]

I actually got slightly interested in the new season of pokemon because I heard they would retire Ash.....No such luck. Come on kid, you've been 10 for how long? This isn't neverland. And how many times will you decide on leaving all your good pokemon behind.

As for comic book characters, let's make it a rule of thumb that a comic book character is no longer allowed to die more then 2 times. I'm looking at you Jean Grey.

As for game characters, this might sound like blasphemy but I do hope Valve axes Glados. She's a great character. She's loveable in a psychotic manner, she got a surprising amount of character to her in portal 2 and she's endlessly quotable. However, if she returns for a third Portal I am very afraid she will just not be as good a character. We know who and what she is by the end of Portal 2, meaning there would be no more mystery surrounding her in a possible third installment.

Any Sonic character that isn't Sonic, Tails, Knuckles or Robotnik should be tossed into the woodchipper. Set the remaining character on ice for a few years, then come back to make a modern 2-D game.

And the Rayman Rabbits. God those fucking rabbits......

 

[thibaut95]

I would say a character from "a song of ice and fire" but well... they all do

 

[Wereduck]

Duncan motherfucking Idaho

I am seriously beyond wanting him dead. A Marty Stu is annoying enough and plot armor only makes it worse but once you get your heroic death I expect you to stay dead. If you're the messiah you get one resurrection and then you're done. Idaho needs to sit down and let someone else take a turn - and I for one would appreciate it if he had the decency to die from something mundane just once; don't people ever eat bad shellfish in the future?

 

[deathzero021]

how about the majority of franchises? i don't want to see Halo 9, Final Fantasy 21, Call of Duty: Super ops 7, Super-New Super Mario Bros., Sonic The Hedgehog 1 (2021), Assassin's Creed: Let's Kill More People Edition, and so on. You get the point.

i wanna see some new characters, worlds, settings and mechanics already. been f***ing waiting too long now. eating the same old shit over and over again, these companies just spew out the same garbage, recycling ideas. to afraid to let go of their heroes and try something different.

 

[The White Hunter]

inb4 people saying "nobody because other people enjoy them" and take the moral high ground.

Kratos. I am actually shooting in the dark here, I haven't played God of War and I am not that familiar with the story, but didn't he kill the majority of Greek gods? Even if not, he'll eventually run out things to kill, so either somebody would step up and take his place or he may get bored and kill himself, I dunno.

Well Zeus stabbed him straight through the body a few times and that didn't work so I think they're painted themselves into a corner there.

OT: Sasuke Uchiha. Because I don't like the ungrateful little emo *****. For justification read the manga and then tell me he doesn't deserve what's coming to him. That is all.

Edit: Every character from Battlefield 3's campaign. Shame on them.

 

[EHKOS]

GZGoten:
Kratos(God of War) - he's dead leave him be!
Cole(InFAMOUS) - same as above!

lordlillen
Infamous Scribbler
why would they kill cole they ended the series? or is there a InFamous 3 i have not heard about?

OT: new dante as fast as possible.


did you play InFAMOUS 2? If you select the good ending Cole dies along with every conductor on planet Earth, if you select the bad ending Cole turns into the beast and every non-super powered person on the Earth dies then Cole goes on a rampage with Kuo and continues to destroy what's left of the world

FFS THE LIGHTNING STRUCK THE COFFIN! HE'S ALIVE DAMMIT.

OT: Crash Bandicoot needs a bullet in the head so Activision can't rape his corpse anymore, same with Spyro. I actually want Mario to live, but yeah, Kratos nearly died at the end of 3. I wish he would have.

Nothing wrong with looking out for number one.
If I had to, I'd do the same thing.
Only, I wouldn't come back.

Well, I think there is if you just doomed an entire city so you could live, thats kinda dickish.

Well, not everyone fits the selfless stalwart-hero-of-the-land archetype, I guess. Maybe that's what makes them so exceptional?
Some hero chump would sacrifice themselves for the good of others sure. But me? Heck no! I love myself way to much to let myself die for the sake of strangers. They can fend for themselves.

 

[Wereduck]

- snip -
Anyone actually important and powerful and a good guy in Bleach. Seriously no good guy who is powerful and important dies in it. But if the foreshadowing proves true Yammamoto and Mayuri both may be on the way out this arc.

Okay, maybe the head captain qualifies but I don't think you can call Mayuri a good guy - he's Joesf Mengele with god powers!

OT: it would be awesome if one of them died though.

Conker. So, that Greg can just drop him off again, and he can be all like "gotchya!" and totally freak someone out.

Captcha: "That's logistics"!
