Jar Jar
Possibly the most annoying character ever concieved. I actually can no longer watch the prequels (which is a blessing) because my blood pressure ramps up everytime one of the f*cking floopyloops opens their damn mouths.

Starbrat
Single-handedly derails an otherwise epic trilogy and taints the enjoyablity and replayability of the games. Also trying to understand his warped non-euclidian logic makes my brain hurt.

Thoughts?


Stachild creates major inconsistencies in the Mass Effect plot, and essentially ruined this series by his very presence.

Jar Jar was just annoying.

Stachild, No contest

Both are basically the apocalypse of a franchise, I'd give Starbrat the edge since Jar-Jar just wrecked the Prequels and they sucked on so many levels anyway that it was just a blur of bad. Starbrat wrecked something that for all intents and pusposes was pretty good up until he showed up.

Then it was bad. Really, really bad.

They're not really related to one another. Jar Jar's a goofy sidekick. A role filled by many notable and irritating characters.

If at the end of Jedi, Vader takes Luke up to see "The Emperor" and it turns out that it's Jar Jar...Who then proceeds to hit Luke in the face with a pie before slipping on a roller skate and falling down a flight of stars.

THEN you could compare the two.

hmm... What if they you a prequal and add a Jar Jar binks character to Mass Effect 4,5,6?

Its a though choice im gunna have to say Jar jar just because they digitally added him into the real Trilogy.

I dont know if its been said because I didnt scroll through all the posts but it should be said that when it came time to start the process of giving Palpatine the power necessary to become emperor Jar Jar was convinced to be the patsy

Definitely Starbrat....JarJar at least contributed to the story and lore of Star Wars, while Starbrat destroyed any semblance of sensical story and lore in Mass Effect.

Star child, he was single handedly able to change and dictate the plot in the last 14 dialogue lines in a trilogy

The prequels sucked even without Jar Jar. In 5 minutes, with only 14 lines of dialogue, the Star Child single handedly destroyed one of the most awesome series in gaming history. Its no contest.

The Darth & Droids webcomic made Jar Jar awesome.

Nothing could make starbrat awesome.

As annoying and unnecessary as Jar Jar was, he didn't have a major impact on the star wars saga...

So I say Starbrat.

I can confidently say that the starchild is without doubt, the worst thing to happen to a sci fi franchise in the history of the genre. Worse than Firefly being cancelled, Battlestar Galacticas ending, and Jarjar Binks all rolled into a singularity of total and utter suck, the magnitude of which still leaves me confused and infuriated.

Just my two cents

Is this just so obvious that people don't find it worth mentioning, or do people really think there's some kind of child-god character in this game?

It was explained slowly and carefully to Shepard in the Geth Collective that her memories provide the 'visuals' for this type of AI-projected 'image.' For instance, pre-war Quarians being depicted with their stillsuits and masks on, because Shepard has never seen an unmasked Quarian.

Starchild is not a child, it may not even be intentionally projecting itself as a child. Personally I think it would have been much more powerful if Shepard's perception shifted between the various squad members who died along the way.

Obviously the starbrat is a hamfisted but totally bog-standard symbol for the future of humanity and Shepard's responsibility for its future. You could even go meta on this and say it represents Shepard's resentment of humanity's childish inability to take care of itself without Shep personally hauling a** all across the galaxy.

Not defending its existence; in my opinion the game ended with Shepard and Anderson sitting together, watching Earth. At best, the starbrat is the product of some egotistical writer who fancies himself much, much more clever and creative than he actually is.

But it's still not some kind of child god. Sheesh.

Spacechild.

The prequels would have been horrible even without that stupid racist cartoon rabbit.

Jar Jar is annoying but ignorable.

Starbrat is literally the worst character ever conceived.

Wish I had that article on hand where it explained why Jar Jar caused literally everything bad that happened.

Or something similar.

Let me say this, if myself,star child and jar jar blinks where on a crashing plane, I would throw both parachutes out the door, then jump, thereby leaving them to die a horrible fiery death they so rightly deserve

Growing up I watch eps 4-6 constantly, I saw eps 1-3 once each when they came out and never again and Jar Jar figured largely in that. Both ME and eps 1-3 have some pretty serious problems besides Star Child and Jar Jar, it's hard to gauge. I'm sure they both suck but Jar Jar didn't really effect anything too deeply so I'm going to take Starchild .

Jar Jar was an idiot, but he tried to be a lovable one. Jar Jar had a few (and I mean a few) redeeming qualities.

Starbrat was pretentious, acted with flawed logic and managed to sink an otherwise excellent game in 10 minutes.

I'd have to say Starbrat.

Starbrat. Even if you remove Jar-Jar Episode 1 is unsalvagable, the same is not true for ME3.
