8 AGGRESSIVE NPCs Who Wouldn't Leave You ALONE

Once upon a time, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time's Navi appeared to be the epitome of irksome video game sidekicks, but always one to raise the bar, Nintendo categorically out did themselves with Skyward Sword's Fi.

Though Link's partner benefits from great character design, her incessant desire to hold the player's hand through the game's early hours is so excessive it's liable to give you a damn twitching eye.

Fi is basically the helicopter parent of video game companions, listlessly rehashing information you already know, and being so anxious about your controller's battery life that it borders on a genuine nervous condition.

Fi constantly interrupts the flow of the game with her yawn-inducing, unskippable interjections which might seem passive-aggressive if she didn't seem genuinely intent on helping you - just in the most obnoxious way possible.

The disdain for Fi endured vocally enough that when Skyward Sword was remastered for the Switch in 2021, most of her remarks were made optional and skippable, which honestly might be the single best feature of the whole damn remaster.
