So, I was playing Soul Calibur 4 a while back, and decided to do a battle against a randomly generated character. This is what it created:



Just to clarify, that is a massive butch guy wearing a loin-cloth, knee-high boots, tank top, and wielding as his weapon a purple umbrella.

And my question; has something like this ever happened to you? Where the game generated something so random and horrific you were paralyzed with laughter (or fear, take your pic)?

No...but my god, that's horrible just to look at. Did you actually fight him?

Um no i can't say it has, but i'm very glad he decided to shave his legs before he put on that loin cloth.

Well...I can't say that anything like that has ever popped up in my game. The only way that could've been any worse was if he was using Voldo's fighting style.

Yes, but about two hours later once I recovered from the initial shock.

Wow. Just wow...
I hate the randomly generated characters from Oblivion, they all look fugly. Hell, all the characters in the game look fugly.
I have to take about an hour or so to make a decent looking one.

QFT they have hamster cheeks and giant noses I hope they improve them in TESV like the ones in fallout 3, they were better.

You're exaggerating. I remember at least one character who looked okay!

Was it an Argonian or Khajiit?

I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure it was light brown, bit furry and had 4 legs. It also had somekind of horns and a very short tail.

My friend and I play Soul Calibur 4, playing only Auto-Randoms to get just such a thing to appear. We've actually seen a lot funnier ones, and one in particular spawned me going out and making a character - she had a giant pink afro that was hidden under a helmet... when we broke the helmet, it popped out, and we broke our ribs laughing

Reminds me of Guitar Hero: World tour. The singer would always look completely out of place with the rest of the band (me + two mates on guitars and drums). we'd get someone who looks like the guy in the OP's pic on stage with three normal looking people.

Well, that's not too bad, really. At least it looks like SOMETHING, even if it's dirty.

My random characters were just random stuff put together to not really look like anything.

Hahaha, happened to me once too. It actually really frightened me when this huge balloon of hair suddenly asploded from nowhere... only I think it was green afro for me...

That picture is the most rolling-on-the-floor funny thing I've seen in quite some time. I about lost it there. Thanks.
