i like him, he just doesn't give a shit to the rest of the world because what's done is done. And he may also aware that all the human he meet after the Conception is bunch of idiots (seriouly, that Isamu brat and that ***** Chiaki) so he fuck all the Reasons (in my game) and conquer god with lucifer. The demon ending of that game is awesome.
Micah from Fire Emblem Radience Dawn. well the first part of the game when you played as her. I just did not cared for her cause to rebell and her attitdue toward Ike, the hero from the past game.
Ahh, the whiny glory that is Tidus from Final Fantasy X. I can't remember the last time I wanted to bludgeon something inside my TV WITH my TV. Seriously. Compared to him, even the characters from FFXIII are bearable (barely).
Now, as something of a tangent to this thread idea, there are legions (LEGIONS I TELL YOU!) of characters that aren't so much "least favorite" as they are "bland, forgettable cardboard cutouts." Most characters that you play as in FPS games, for example. Or Dante from the Devil May Cry series (yes, all of them).

Asbel Lhant.
I genuinely hate this guy. I can't think of a useful thing he's done. He did something somewhat relevaaant, about twice, but Hubert could easily have taken this guys spot as lead.
I'd say he's worse then Tidus.

Definitely that guy from Far Cry 3.
I can't remember his name so I'm going to refer to him as Dubstep Douche-tats. I seriously hated this guy, every time he opened his mouth I wanted to reach through my TV and choke him. I just found his personality so unlikeable, and his friends to, they can also die. They were like the stupid teenagers from some terrible horror movie.
Also early on there was a huge rift between his actions and how he acts. At the start of the game he is supposed to seem scared and out of his element, but then minutes into the game your scaling a huge radio tower, Ziplining down, picking up an AK-47 and murdering about twenty people and several exotic animals.
Douche-tats taught me to appreciate silent protagonists.

I find it difficult to actually dislike silent protagonists because of their complete and utter lack of personality
Alpha protocol guy was kind of an all round douche
I can't remember but there has been one or two occasions where characters have done that no I can't kill him that would be wrong whilst standing in front of a pile a corpses high enough to block out the sun and the recently defeated is so obviously going to come back and haunt us

So much hate for Kratos. He's an antihero, not a protagonist. ;(
My choice would be Tidus, of obvious reasons. He wasn't that annoying when I was 12, but when I replayed the game recently all I could think about when I heard his voice was vicious murder.
Snow from FFXIII would be a very close second.
Also Hope.
Actually, most JRPG protagonists are my least favorite.

That is unfortunately a failing on behalf of the games writers. In the extended universe they explain a lot more about him, and he does actually have a fairly deep personality.Manji187 said:
Not that it's an excuse, because games shouldn't rely on outside media for character development and back story. It's one of my most hated things about the series overall. The games atmosphere tries to be serious and deep, but the writing turns it into a B Movie with cheesy dialogue. If they'd kept the same atmosphere in the games as they had in the books, it'd have been a lot more liked, rather than being seen as yet another bro-tastic" shooter.
Apparently you don't know what the word "protagonist" means. The protagonist is the main character of the story. He/she can be a hero, villain, anti-hero, or anti-villain. It doesn't matter, as long as he/she is the main character of the story and it's his/her struggles around which the story revolves.DanielBrown said:
