Characters you like that everyone else seems to hate

Wakka from Final Fantasy X. IMO, he is one of the most realistic and likeable characters in FF history. If characters from GAMES everyone hates counts, then Sazh from FFXIII as well.

I've seen a lot of hate against Allistair in Dragon Age, but I found his lame jokes oddly amusing.

Oh yeah, I totally agree. I once saw someone calling him 'whiney'. Everyone he knows in the entire game is either dead or dying, and he remains relatively cheerful. How is that whiney?

Same goes for Kaiden. He pretty much says nothing to you unless you talk to him, at which point he tells you about his life. This makes him whiney, apparently. I just don't see the logic.

And the hilarious thing about Kaiden is he'll flat out tell you (at least when you're romancing him) that he's over his demons. He's telling you about his life because you asked him.

Aside from Alistair and Kaiden, I'd have to add Shaun from AC2 and Brotherhood. I don't care if he's an asshole, I love that snarky British man, especially the conspirator narrations in 2.

Squall from Final Fantasy VIII. It seems that being calm and introspective is too close to being emo. I think he´s a silent badass.

Link is one of my favorite video-game characters
Around here everyone hates on the guy because he didn't wear mettle armor, have a giant sword, and he was silent. But Gotta love the guy that can make the "Fairy Bow" badass

i'm with you on that one, the guy awesome and so dreamy badass. i actually like Navi yet everyone else wants her to die. i didn't find the 'hey, hey, watch out, hey' annoying and actually preferred it over Tatl's dinging noise in Majora's Mask

Oh good, someone else who doesn't hate Navi with a passion!

Though personally, I think Tingle has got it worse.

There is NO rationale for the hate. He's weird, but that's what makes him an enjoyable character!

i always thought he looked like what would happen if a bogey evolved
