Scarlet (GW2)


I HATE Scarlet with a passion.I initially liked her, but the more Anet adds her to their living stories the more I grow to hate her. Her speech patterns were fine initially, but I really can't stand her anymore. Besides the fact that they had her turn into a GW2 version of Doctor Jonathan Crane/Scarecrow (Batman villian), and that doesn't work with her established character.

Colonel Klink



If you're talking about Hogan's Heroes ... I very much doubt Klink was supposed to be hated, just like Schultz. Hofstedter and Burghalter on the other hand ...


Exactly, Klink and Shultz are examples of a typical WWII German soldier, but with a tad on the silly side. Not all of the soldiers were **** fanatics, and some of the older soldiers only embraced it because it meant that there was "honor" to being a soldier again.

However I did like Hochstetter for some odd reason.

Ra's Al Ghul from Batman Begins


Helps that he's played by Liam Neeson. I can't hate the guy either.


I only dislike him because of his philosophy.

Pretty much every character from the Batman rogues gallery. The classics, anyway.


As long as Scarecrow is included. He is clearly a psychopath and his "research" is highly unethical, but he is definitely a tragic character because of his childhood. Unfortunately, most iterations have Batman easily defeating him after his fear toxin is negated even though he does have the training to physically fight Batman.

I like the more studious and powerful Sith who use their brain as much they use the Force or brute physical strength. There's something much more sinister and dark about the ones who manipulate events without even activating a lightsaber or using the Force than anything else. The ones who understand that their best weapons aren't the Force or their physical prowess, but the ability to make others be such with simple words and character.

Of course, said characters are also vastly more powerful and skilled in both the Force and physical prowess than their more martial counterparts.


I prefer villians like that regardless of the universe.

Mass Effect:

Udina. Dat accent, dem fist pumps. His dedication to his job is admirable and the only time I was even slightly miffed with him was when he grounded the Normandy in 1 (for relatively good reasons considering that he didnt know the Reapers were real) and I got over that minor annoyance quickly.

Witcher:

Henselt and Dethmold. I dunno if you're supposed to hate them but I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to like them by the end of Act 2.

Oleg Petrovsky, specifically in the Omega DLC.

If you haven't read comics, your only impression on him would be to hate him. And he's awesome in the comics.


And even then, he is a saint compared to Aria. Cold blooded criminal warlord that you're assisting to take back Omega for her, to continue her ruthless rule.


Oleg was the best thing that happen to that dump.

Letho (Witcher 2) - Despite the fact that he caused an entire sh*tstorm of events that got people killed I really liked him. After the shared drink I couldn't bring myself to kill him so just let him walk away.

Master (Fallout) - He isn't really evil or good, more of a misguided idealist. Even when you tell him that his plan will fail he calmly accepts it and destroys himself along with his army. I actually felt sympathy for him at the end. Truly, a great antagonist.

Tannis (Borderlands 2) - Yes, she did some bad stuff and feels no empathy for others, but she's my second fav character in the game. Plus, her ECHO logs are freakin' funny.

Radec (Killzone 2) - Badass. Left me a big impression. Especially that he doesn't toy with those who can ruin his plans like many antagonists do and instead executes/attacks them. Visari was interesting too, but he had like two moments in the game overall.

I think Scarlet was meant to become one of those love to hate characters, and is now simply hated after so much mishandling. I mentioned how I don't actually like these characters. That instead, I simply do not hate them while having other feelings toward them. Well, Scarlet was thrown in as an example of a character I'm apathetic toward.

I think ANet intended for us to find her fun to watch like Harley Quinn, but I've never found her funny. I'm also not angered by her villain Sue tendencies, or find myself eagerly awaiting to see what she does next. Scarlet is background noise to me; whereas most of the player base seems to despise the character with a smaller visible minority enjoying her antics.

On the upside there are only four more living story updates until the current arc is concluded. On the other hand, there is no guarantee that will be the last we see of her. Time will tell.

Similarly, I find it hard to hate any of the Homonculi. Except for Father. I do hate him.

The man had so much presence - A level headed sociopath and manipulator even after his death. Plus, a very nice suit that sadly got messy. :D

Speaking of Star Wars, Darth Malgus was kind of cool.

Malgus, Baras, Hunter, Tavus,Dreadmasters, Kephess, Jarg and Sorno Voidwolf, Jadus and while I'm not sure if you're ment to hate him or not, but I'll also say Marr just in case.

Absolutely. I actually meant to spotlight Scarecrow in my post, but I just forgot. He's one of my absolute favorite Batman antagonists.

I know Batman makes short work of Scarecrow after he turns his own fear gas on him, but I thought Cillian Murphy was a brilliant Scarecrow. It was a great choice to have Scarecrow in the movie, since it tied in so well with the fear (and overcoming of it) aspect of the movie. I don't think Murphy gets enough credit for how good he was, but I'm sure that's affected by Neeson's Ra's Al Ghul, Ledger's Joker and Hardy's Bane.

Yes! That betrayal was awesome. As was the game giving you the choice of just bowing out to him in the end.

Everyone I know IRL hates/disagrees with Jenny from Forrest Gump. I felt more sorry for her than "hate/dislike" or w/e cus the only person in her life who cared about her was mentally handicapped and she couldn't tell if the love was sincere or if he just didn't know any better.

I love the Empire, but I never got the feeling they were antagonized in Skyrim, well at least not more than the stormcloaks. Both sides did positive and negative things, they both seemed like pretty neutral factions.

I do wish I could've butchered more Thalmor in that game.

Not sure if we were supposed to hate him, but Sticky, the "let's make up a story to pass the time" guy in Fallout 3. I found the deadpan pointlessness of his stories amusing, especially the ones that ended with "and then he went 'wahh wahh wahh' and everyone laughed at him." (Though I'll admit I eventually fast-traveled to Big Town so I wouldn't have to listen to him for half an hour straight or however long it would have taken to get there otherwise.)
