discussion What do you hate most when it comes to the caracters??

[CarolusRex]

Not sure if this has been handled in other threads, but what do you hate most when it comes to the caracters in the games?

For me, those two topics are on the top of my list.

1: The male caracter has a telephone pole in his pants
2: The female caracters have milk jugs that normally would require wheelbearers for them to move around.

3: The MC is a perfect Mary Sue/Gary Stu: perfect body, infinite stamina, perfect intelligence, and inherited wealth by suddenly becoming a full orphan right when the game starts.

MCs who just can't bring themselves to do the deed with whoever it is telling him they want it.

I think there a girl somewhere behind that poll, be nice to see her but all i get is a big cock in face over and over ty dev.

Perfect in any way and rich MC that is also brilliant, except when it comes to girls and everything around them, then they have an IQ of a room temperature.

 

[Rion89]

Cocky, annoying, show-off, mc with low IQ and EQ, and rich bastard

 

[El_hairygato]

kinda unoriginal but it's got to be big dick mcgee especially when the author uses it as the only reason to get with the mc, but i gotta disagree with the other comments i don't self-insert so the "perfect man" mc is only really a positive

Definitely both number 1 and 2: telephone dong and mega-boobs.

Add to that: cold, dead personalities, necrophilia, "family" mean to each other for no reason and MIMES!

Definitely dislike intensely stupid protagonists, but I specifically dislike them when the writer doesn't seem to be aware of how stupid they're acting- i.e. they'll do the most moronic things but the narration and other characters act like they're normal or even intelligent. I don't mind so much if it's obvious that they're intended to be idiots and the game plays it as a joke.

On a similar note, I hate when the protagonist is allegedly of normal intelligence, but is saddled with a thunderingly stupid "best friend" whose constant screwups drive the plot.

I don't hate anything, but i don't like when the physical aspect is much different from the declared age

I would say that next in line is a lengthy dialogue. There is a game that does outclass one of the longest novels in history.

War and Peace has approximately 587,287 words, making it one of the longest novels ever written. The exact word count can vary slightly depending on the translation and edition, but the general length is well over half a million words

Some figures from this particular game:
V0.10.11 Total : 57.425 Words
V0.10.12 Total : 33.097 Words
V0.10.13 Total : 37.238 Words

In other words, 127.619 words in just 3 updates. That is almost 1/4 of the War and Peace.

Characters with ridiculous big tits and dicks. Some of the comments from these characters should have been ended by the 90'. They were used in Duke Nukem 1. We don't need more...

One of my biggest problems with a lot of characters in adult games is how many characters from so many games have very similar look. As a dev I've always tried to make my characters look different and unique. I think I do a pretty good job at it. So do a handful of other devs but it's extremally rare.

I agree the dick that is the size of the MC's forearm that he proceeds to stuff in every hole the LI has with no prep of any kind is a turn off.

The biggest issue for me though is bad dialog. Top of the list is bad translations. If the grammar is bad and the word choice or context doesn't make sense, I'll quit playing and delete it.

The other is "short dialog". Frame 1 MC: "Hey." F2 LI: "Whats up?" F3 MC "Not much. You?" F4 LI: "Same...". Either put multiple text boxes in a single frame or expand the dialog to more than three words.

Bonus if it's accompanied by a slow-ass fade transition that can't be disabled.

absurdly proportioned people, also.

If the women are ridiculous caricatures, I'm out.

 

[Rion89]

When they don't have any personality whatsoever and only there just for the author to progress the plot.

 

[cinstumbro]

The clear dev-self-insert-inflated-ego-action-hero-super-strong-big-dick-fantasy main character. Sure everyone wants some escapism in a game but sometimes it feels a bit over the top to be almost laughable

 

[S7aard]

When a LI has braces and MC puts his dick in her mouth
