5. You Have To Babysit The President's Daughter - Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil 4 was a major innovation of Capcom's premiere survival horror franchise, removing the tank controls and static camera angles of the previous games in favour of a third-person view and a more versatile control scheme. However, Capcom also decided rather misguidedly that the game wouldn't be much fun unless you had an annoying character you had to spend the majority of it - and the game sure ain't short - escorting. Ashley Graham is the President's daughter, and after convening with her early on in the game, you have to spend most of the rest of it holding her hand and ensuring that the savage villagers don't end up running off with her. Though she's handy for reaching small spaces and so on, she's generally more a hindrance to the
fun of the game, and a reminder that escort missions just flat out suck.
