20 Awful Characters In Amazing Games

This entry comes with two caveats. Firstly, while The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is a divisive entry in the LoZ series, it's still a very good game. Secondly, Link's companion, Fi, is on this list, but that doesn't mean she's a terribly written character. In many ways, her story is actually one of the strongest parts of the game. That said, oh god, she is the worst. 

Just because a character has some stuff going for them doesn't mean players want to be constantly hounded by them. Fi, much like Navi in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, is a five-star annoyance, constantly popping up to give you hints and tutorials like you're a child who's never played a video game before. Unlike Navi, though, Nintendo should have known better, as it's a mistake they've made before. 

Thankfully, the devs did include an option to limit Fi's interruptions in the Remastered version of Skyward Sword. Still, having to remove a figure's persistent presence in a game is hardly a ringing endorsement of that character.
