CHARACTERS you like that everyone else seems to hate!

I actually like Cloud and Cait Sith from FFVII and I like the main cast of FFXII even though everyone seems to hate them.
Shadow the Hedgehog, period. Most fans of Sonic games tend to have their nostalgia goggles firmly taped onto their eyes, and thus seem to dislike almost ANY new character anyway. Shadow, to me, is Sonic's perfect foil. He's angry at humanity, not just GUN, but has a good reason to be. He's shown himself to have some heroic traits, mostly buried under all that angst in his past. He's also damn good looking...what? My favorite colors are red and black, so Shadow is one of my favorite Sonic characters; next to Knuckles of course.
I agree with the people that said Kaiden, Jack, and Ashley.
Anakin Skywalker, Galen "Starkiller" Marek, Ahsoka Tano, and every. single. clone commando in Karen Traviss' novels, not to mention Etain, Kal, and Bardan, get my vote in the Star Wars department. Why? To me, Anakin had a good reason for turning to the Dark Side (a bit of a misguided one, but a good one regardless.) Galen Marek is quite possibly one of the better new gen Star Wars characters to ever get his own game series, mostly because I love how powerful he is and his character...yes, I do count the TFU II version as well. Ahsoka can be a bit grating at times, but she's Anakin's apprentice; they both are learning the 'right' way to be a Jedi slowly. As for the clones in KT's novels, among the other characters, I liked the way they were characterized. I enjoyed the fresh take they brought to a universe that seemed somewhat black and white when it came to things, least on the surface.
I like Jar Jar Binks as a comic relief character, just saying.

Jansen from Lost Odyssey. Looking back, there were a few times he should have shut his mouth, but I found him to be the perfect foil to Kaim's stoicism, and he did become a lot more likable through the end of his character arc.
EDIT: I did not think this post through. I forgot Navi, Altair and Ashley Williams. I actually like the voice of the third(she's my notification ringtone), I liked Altair's subtle character growth, and I didn't find Ashley's character as jarring as most people do. Her xenophobia is both overstated and misunderstood in fandom, and she does have a bit more depth then people give her credit for.

Oh yea, he has good ideals, but they involve enslaving all women and non-legionaries.ChupathingyX said:
OT: People seem to not like Daenarys, I love her chapters! Also, I like Cersei's stupidity, she is paving the way for a Targaryen Westeros.
^ Holy ASS, this. It also applies to Navi.automatron said:
I think Tidus is pretty cool for a dead guy. And Vaan was a bit cool once he got a shirt.

Bolded - I completely agree with you right there on Vaan.penguindude42 said:
Although he did have a rather ironic line in Dissidia 012 when battling Cloud of Darkness.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only guy who likes ClapTrap. How could I NOT?
Also, I was unaware that Raul (FO:NV) was underrated. I love that guy. Come on, he's voiced by Danny Trejo!

Takeo from COD zombies. he's awesome, but people hate him because he doesn't joke around. being quiet is better than being:
dumb (tank)
piss drunk (nikolai)
a psychopath (dr. richtofen)
and coach from l4d2. what's up with that?

Same, I admit he's not the greatest character in gaming history but I don't recall him ever being advertized as such, I respect him in the role he plays.Esotera said:
That said, I much prefer the Arbiter who is, incidently, another character who gets waves of unjust hate for no fair reason.
Also I like Ashley from Mass Effect. Screw what the haters say, she's my favorite gal in the whole damn series.
Master Chief of course.
Seriously, how does he get hate? He talks when he needs to. Thats his personality.

Apparently the League of Legends community hates Lux, my favorite character
I'll give you an example
I'll give you an example
this was the chatbox
*I score a kill*
enemy: Lux is shit
Me: why is that
enemy: all her skills are skill-shots, and has no real support skills, plus the laser is OP get some skill ******
Me: Ha ha ha the funny part is I JUST KICKED YOUR ASS!
they shut up after that

Honestly?
Almost everybody hates him on this website. On a positive Sonic thread? Most of the replies will be like "yeah, it really looks good, can't wait to play it!" and then every other comment there is this prick saying "NOPE BECAUSE SONIC IS DEAD AND ALL HIS GAMES SUCK BECAUSE THEY AREN'T LIKE THE GENESIS GAMES HERP DERP"
Honestly, people, it gets old really quick. If you don't like Sonic anymore, good for you. There's no reason for you to go on a thread filled with Sonic fans and denominate him. You most likely have better things to do with your time.

Wow..took the words out of my mouth. I don't see why everyone seems to prefer Tali.Vrex360 said:
Another potentially good character is Cortana/Dr. Halsey, if they stopped doing those irritating Cortana moments like in Halo 3. Most characters in Halo do need a lot more development, though.
HEY! LISTEN! HEY! LISTEN!
Does this annoy you? It doesn't annoy me. Keep at it Navi.
