They did eventually make him slightly less infuriating, and alisae is so good she kind of makes up for him, but for a character who is actually fairly genuine and caring, he is like a car-crash of anime tropes that I had a hard time overcoming.

He has a special appearance and special powers and a special heritage and a special destiny and he's a walking humblebrag and on and on and on. I got goddamn sick of him right off the bat and never liked him more. The plot exists to flatter him. Even the stupidass Crystal Braves wasn't actually his fault, because of course his biggest debacle couldn't be because of a mistake! That would imply that _he makes mistakes!_ Ugh. Alphinaud is the f*cking worst.

    SPOILERS FOR THE SHB TRIAL STORY Valens is the most unlikeable, evil, despicable excuse of a living being I have ever encountered in this game. I didn't think I could truly hate any characters up until I played this questline. Even when I found someone unlikeable, I liked learning more about them and how they came to be the way they are. But Valens... That monster filled me with so much rage that I genuinely wanted to punch my screen during every cutscene he featured in. I really liked the trials in this series, but this is one story I doubt I'll ever play in NG+ because my hatred for Valens is so strong.

While nothing condones his actions, he was projecting the extremes of the societal norms the Empire was built on. Had other powerful factions not been embroiled in their own disputes he may have been stripped of his position. Or possibly not, he was just disposing of filthy savages in the end.

    I haven't played past ARR, but so far my most hated NPC is a relatively minor one known as the Coeurlclaw King. You're introduced to them from the Delivery Moogle Quests, and they're one of the few genuinely awful characters you never get to truly put down and can do nothing to really help the other NPCs he's negatively affected the lives of, so he pretty much gets away with everything he's done, and being a minor NPC from a ARR side quest, he ends up one of those examples of "bad things the WoL can never resolve". Even the FATE he's part of isn't easy to trigger or beat, so you can't even take meager solace in giving him your own non-canon ending (in fact, you're likely to be the one who gets trounced if you try to fight him alone).

    I'm sure a lot of people have Ilberd on here but for me? Laurentius and Yuyuhase are the Crystal Braves I really wanted to hurt. I can't stand Fourchenault who may have had good reasons for standing his ground but there was no excuse for being such a jerk about it. Lahabrea was pretty lousy, too. The other Ascians were allowed to have arcs. He was just "oooh, I'm so evil!11!1!!" Of course, there's a special place in the blender for Ser Zephirin, but I'm sure that goes without saying. Obviously, they can't kill Y'Shtola because there just aren't enough potential waifus in the game. My wife plays and she pointed out just how many hot guys there are: Aymeric, Hien, Raha, Estenien, even Thancred if you can sober him up. That's without even looking at the baddies. The roster of shippable ladies is almost empty. Lyna? Maybe Kan-E? We don't even get to spend that much time with them. So, mommy Shtola can't die.

    Fourchenault was rather frustrating because there wasn't ever any reason given for why he disowned his kids. "Oh? You just wanted to keep them safe? Well why would you cast them out which would pretty much guarantee that they would take the less peaceful route of just getting on the ship when it was ready and go to the moon?" If it was just because he was angry and couldn't help but lash out I'd have appreciated him admitting as much.

OTHER THAN THAT I could make a 5 hour long essay about how he wasn't "better as the Exarch" and didn't really change much and can actually show you video footage of many moments as the Exarch of him simping for the WoL just as much as he does today.

    I was new to the game as people were telling me in Crystal Towers to "pay attention to G'raha he's amazing etc" and I liked him a lot because of that. Because I was told I would. And when Exarch was revealed to not a lot of surprise, I was like damn yeah the Exarch is really cool so Raha will too. But post ShB and into EW, I think the only time I really liked him was in the post Vanaspati dungeon where he showed his Exarch side in his tactical and commanding presence. Outside of that, there is just things I do not enjoy and places him as the Scion I care for the least and wish we had the Exarch personality back. Your opinion and such is hella valid. But so are people who don't like them!!! Assuming half of the people who don't enjoy him are just doing it to annoy people is dismissing their views. I dislike his clinginess, his quirkyTM responses and actions, and a few other minor things. I just feel uncomfortable with the idea of my character and even me as a person being idolized by an ally and friend to a whole other degree, and that's why quite a few people I know including myself aren't the biggest fan of him. But it is a to each their own sorta thing, and I would rather put others on a pedestal to enjoy their favorites than dismiss their opinion

    G'raha not being your favorite character is one thing, but going out of your way to say you "hate" him, that's different and for me it's either because the person just think it's cool to hate on popular characters, or just lacks a lot of empathy/text interpretation skills. How can you *hate* this nicely written, kind and good character that really didn't do anything ingame to deserve it? For me it's such a huge red flag.@@SuperSnivMatt As for the "Exarch personality", I stand by the point that this DID NOT CHANGE. The Exarch sacrificed 100+ years of his life and health to save you especifically. He spends a lot of his time as the Exarch singing you praises, there's many many dialogues that point out how you inspired him and how a lot of things he's build and done are thinking of the WoL. He was just a bit more formal about it. Now that he doesn't need to hide and gets to live a second life, we get the impression that he changed, but he didn't. His "quirky responses" are there ever since we found out he was G'raha, even when he was still the Exarch - though from what the people of the Crystarium say about him, he always did many "quirky" things. And he is NOT clingy, he just expresses he likes to spend time with us a bit more than the other Scions. That's not being clingy.

The other two Fandaniel's we've encountered by the end were okay characters. It was enjoyable getting to know Hermes, and finding out that Amon was also a reincarnation of Hermes was a neat little callback considering Hermes' research into life. Then you've got the version of him wearing Asahi's meat suit. Just as insufferable and "omg he's so insane and unhinged" as the original Asahi. I never empathised with Zenos more than when he was barely tolerating Fandaniel's existence.

    For the most part, if a character is supposed to be disliked and you hate him, I would say writers, actors and animators did an awesome job. Wouldn't know which one I'd pick there are some. Propably not one of the "villains", because they did what they are supposed to do. It might actually also go to Lyse since she is supposed to be a main character in a whole addon but the best scene in said addon is without her. Sidenote: I love Tataru. I think she is very interesting, she never takes the spotlight but her arc trying to do more, but failing (that was heartbreaking for me honestly - great that her Carbuncle later comes back as a boss with great music :D) and discovering her skills to help was really great - and she can actually be intimidating in her own way wich is really interesting since she seems so small and cute. Similarly I loved Nanamo for her arc of learning - her arc to become a capable leader who understands her country/city is way better compared to Lyse which is odd considering Lyse hat a whole addon dedicated to that arc - her scene at the end of that addon on top of the palace (I think it was, right?) was SO MUCH BETTER compared to anything Lyse got in my opinion, it showed her growth as a character and her understanding of her best friend so to speak, was emotional hitting the right spots for me. Good for Nanamo, disappointing for the "main character" of the addon (and yes, that is the scene I mentioned earlier)

I wanted to pound the snot out of him and then lock him up in a jail cell so he could see us liberate Ala Mihgo while he rotted and was forgotten, knowing that if he had played his cards right, not been such a scumbag, that he could've done so much better and been beloved by his people instead of cursed for his traitorous ways. Instead he got almost everything he wanted and then jumped to his own death so he wouldn't have to live with the consequences. Even smacking him around in the level 87 dungeon wasn't satisfying enough of a beatdown, I wanted to see him be an actual boss and have a cutscene where we rub it in his face how he eff'd up.

    Not easy to answer. But if I think hard about it, I would say I dislike Zenos the most even more than Asahi. Why? Because Asahi is written to be hated and very well written in that matter, also the voice actors no matter the language were phenomenal! Zenos on the other hand was just an obstical with no deeper meaning for the story overall and was just existing somewhere outside of some fights. He just exists and was so overhyped to be "the rival". I guess you could say I dislike him more because of the things he could have been but never was.

    I agree with you about Z. There's a final cutscene from HW which he makes a cameo and I was so hyped about him bc I knew he must be the bad guy, then my dissapointment was immeasurable by the lack of screen time and looked forward when he's going to appear again. Then post StB happens and my hype was growing once more..until ShB that is; his charm was starting to fade away and find him just a character that it's here for unknown reasons. Imo he was under used or used just to make the story a little longer (yes, I'm looking at EW)

    *Kinda sorta EW spoilers*; On the subject of characters dying and coming back and dying and coming back I think what really concerns me about the writing for the past two expansions is how we seem to have forgotten how loss is written into this story, and I find myself wanting the best of both worlds, in ShB and EW the Scions have felt more like a family than a group of worldsavers and on the one hand I love that, but I can't help but feel strayed away from the pain and loss and moving forward still from ARR, HW and SB. It feels like at this point all of the Scions have plot armour, something I at first only contributed to the WoL and Alphinaud, now feels extended to everyone.

We're at a good spot in the story right now for some of the Scions to go off and do other things for a bit and I thought that was going to be what happens with the Twins. Now every one of them is following us across the ocean for some reason. Hope there's a good plot hook for that.

    The issues with Lyse are that she is effectively two people in Stormblood. You have the one written by a writer who only knows how to fridge women (Ysayle, Menphilia) and an actual woman writing her (All of Yanxia/Steppe/Kugane) as the other. The second one she plays the player insert perfectly, the one who needs to learn how to be a proper insurgent, to understand that you can't just be suddenly patriotic, but have to have a real leg in the fight and learns to let others help her and to learn from them, and then you have derp-Lyse in Ala Mhigo, and she only gets SLIGHTLY better in the second half of Ala Mhigo. She becomes a better character once the full writing team change happens in the post-MSQ SB content. But it is like.. man, such a missed opportunity to have a really strong female character cause they got too stuck in on the "critically acclaimed" Heavensward expac writing method.

The Post MSQ, Yanxia/Steppe, are all her and the new writing crew. And I believe, she was the one that advocated not using Minfilia, as she (Minfilia) was VERY poorly received in the West in ARR and HW. God, I shudder in pain at the thought of Oda and Ishikawa trying to make Minfilia work in place of Lyse.

Like, same pretty boy face on a ripped body, creepy as fuck, and are way too interested in Cloud/WoL. And Zenos still has the more interesting back story imo. I can vibe with people who hate both of them, though. Also, my most hated character has got to be Hermes. It's one thing to be depressed. It's another thing to be conceited and stupid enough to shove that same depression onto Meteion and force her to find the answer to a question so vague.

I don't really hate any characters we're supposed to like. Cid is the closest, but that's more of him being a wet paper towel character wise than actually being dislikable.

    People miss so much context around Zenos he is a much deeper character than people give him credit he is a creature of instinct who wants so badly to feel like he isn't alone at the top of the world, he wants an equal to himself for the sole purpose of no longer being alone. Being so terribly alone for so long has broken and stunted his mind to the point he has no reference for how he should be to one he could call a friend. Yes he is intensely evil but he knows nothing else. By the Endwalker he is in my top 5 villains of the whole franchise with Kefka, Seymour, and Sephiroth.

    Can't say I truly dislike or hate any particular npc in the game. While there are npcs that I feel less for than most, they are mostly inoffensive or have one or two cool things about them that rescues them from the scrappy heap. Even the characters designed to be despised don't really count, because I like them in how much I dislike them. Though if I had to pick one, I think I'd go with Sadu, and by extension the Dotharl tribe. When I first learned of the tribe, I imagined the most extreme terrifyingly blood crazed individuals that would make even Zenos blush in embarrassment. Those in game, however, are more like the jocks of the steppe if anything. They still have some cool elements like their belief in reincarnation, but I still find them a bit annoying at times.

    Definitely some answers I expected, but I think if a character is supposed to be hated (Asahi, Valens, Zenos, etc) then pointing to them just doesn't feel right. The "character you're supposed to like but don't" ring with me much louder. That in mind, for meeeee, that character is Y'shtola. I guess part of it is because I never got why so many people swear by her being their favorite character? I see people mentioning her plot armor here but like, that doesn't bother me. She just isn't fun or interesting. I dunno, to me, every scion has their moments where they confide in you, you see them open up, share secrets, you comfort them, they comfort you. But Y'shtola never really hits those notes. Even in scenes were people try to argue the contrary, most of the 'care' she expresses towards the WoL often feels like it's coming from more of a "You're too useful to us so make sure you take care of yourself". If not that, the few times she does seem to express care is to other people behind your back, and since the Scions are supposed to be this big family, that's not the relationship I want to have, y'know? it's just all business all the time with her, and even the 6.1 stuff where people point to her getting more interesting, I disagree. I want to laugh WITH her, not AT her. As is, that woman wouldn't know fun if a circus chocobo ran her over, and just constantly brings the mood down, it feels like.

    I'm never sure about questions like these, so I'll comment along. [SPOILERS] Asahi: one of the easy picks, but I still find it entertaining knowing how it all unfolds. And his pose bending over to get face-to-face with my Lala is hilarious: "even your face, it vexes me.... (õ_õ)" Lyse: I'm playing through StB on my latest alt and yeah she's so annoying trying to be a diplomat in act 2 of 4.0. Will have to continue more to refresh my memory. G'raha: I can see why, I have this a little bit with Haurchefant, who I noticed on my 2nd playthrough being almost too nice immediately. Obvious in hindsight they were making the WoL like him. Zenos: Never truly liked him, and the simping by the player base made me dislike him more. But I respect his position in the story now and it makes early Zenos better too, from what I'm seeing on my re-run. Still, with the mirror analogy I'm much less the target audience than other players are with the whole 'seeking challenge' thing. Y'shtola: Slightly overrated at worst, and for a long time I felt she should have died or experienced serious repercussions after life stream #2. Gaia: I haven't played through the raid, so I can only say she looks weird imo. But if Ryne's cool with her then I am too. Loporrit/Moogle: the novelty wore off the Moogles for me, plus they just annoy the WoL with chores, but Loporrits will probably stay my fav for a good while. Accept no substitutes! Athena: yeah pretty bad, though her saying the Ultima line "the world shall trembaaaal" will always be funny. So who am I missing personally...Ser Charibert, plus that old priest that pushed the girl off the Vault. Also Valens.
