Templar569 · Post by **Templar569** » Fri Jan 19, 2001 2:05 pm

Gotta be Nalia. All that droning about helping people, blah blah blah.

Aerie's a close second, whine whine whine.

Well,my choice may be strange but my most hated NPC is Edwin.I cant stand his attitude (and his voice,too).

I have read a post in another site who described him as "He is a conjurer and a certified jerk".Cant say i disagree.

P.S : I tried all NPCs and their subquests,and most of them have stayed with my party for some time.

Edwin is definitley the NPC I despise the most. He is a complete and total loser, not to mention the fact that he's ugly. I think he might be gay. Check out his fingernails and look at all the piercings he has.....GROSS!

For Female:
Hmmhmmm letmethinkAERIE.

Can't stand the whining!! Can't. And there's not enough pedaphile in me to CARE if she gets all horny for me...

Next, a toss-up between Nalia (So I'm POOR! I can make money. YOU'LL always SUCK!!") and Imoen. All right. You were a prisoner. You got free. You got ME free, and I thank you. But for daddy's sake, SHUT UP!

For Male:

Anomen. Useless, rude, corny, and a knight. Bye bye.

And to whoever it was that said they hated Haer'Dalis (I'm not being rude, I just honestly can't remember names...**blush**) cuz of his whistling and stuff: I can understand why you would, but I don't think we'd get along too well, cuz I do the exact same thing.

With the possible exception of hitting on all the female party members.

I've just put my party into position to take out the Shadow Dragon. Everyone is armed with spells, weapons, potions, scrolls. On my signal, we all attack!!!

Haer'Daelis: "Have you read my play Aerie my dove?"

AAUUGGHHHHHHHHH!!!! I hate Haer'Daelis

Well, well, well, isn't this a cute voting?
To make it short, You have voted for ALL the potential party members in this game, but two: Jaheira and Korgan (one mentioned Korgie but forgive him after all cause of his spiffy scot accent).
So, the easy part is to say that Jaheira (who IMHO IS a ballbracker) and Korgan are the less hated NPCs.

As for the top of the tops, here are the results:

Aerie 6
Anomen 6
Nalia 6
Haer'Daelis 6
Cernd 5
Keldorn 4
Yoshimo 2
Edwin 2
Minsk 1
Imoen 1
Valygar 1
Viconia 1

And the rest:

Nalia's Aunt 2
Irenicus 1
Cromwell 1
Bodhi 1
Ellesime 1
Neeber 1
"You must gather..." 1

Interesting, huh? Maybe some people would like to add their votes so we can solve this?

Karembeu · Post by **Karembeu** » Sun Jan 21, 2001 5:31 am

Yes....and you know what this means.....that Jaheira is the most loved NPC overall......I knew I wasn't the only one with good taste.....

Ubik · Post by **Ubik** » Sun Jan 21, 2001 5:34 am

Angry one, YOU are the wicked here, not me.

Well, if there was a "who is the most wicked BG2 player" I would vote for all the Jaheira lovers like you

AND the guys at Bioware, for putting in the game a romance with Jaheira... Yuck!

Apex36 · Post by **Apex36** » Sun Jan 21, 2001 5:46 am

So, Anomen made it... he is no1, but there is still time to change this if someone feels like it

renyu · Post by **renyu** » Sun Jan 21, 2001 9:28 am

haha never picked up anomen so no hard feelings

er.. i think nalia's whining is irritating, but thats not as bad as err... jaheira

yah thats it

jaheira likes to pick on aerie

Magus · Post by **Magus** » Sun Jan 21, 2001 10:57 am

I suppose Aerie could be annoying if you're not romancing her, but if you are I think the whining makes it more realistic, and more satisfying when you finally win her over. Mind I phrased that "win her over," NOT "her getting horny." I think Aerie's romance is one made for those who want a storybook romance, not sexual gratification

She really won my heart. Too bad I didn't have Haer-Dalis in my party...and I lost him forever because I abandoned him after I found his gem, and he left and never turned up in that tavern (all the actors disappeared) Is he somewhere else?

Ubik; Have you forgotten about Jan? He's not in your list, at least.

Astafas · Post by **Astafas** » Sun Jan 21, 2001 11:38 am

Mazzy neither, on a second thought.

Ubik · Post by **Ubik** » Sun Jan 21, 2001 11:54 am

Arrghhrr... Astafas, you have absolutely right. So, let's update the summary:

Not mentioned (less hated): Mazzy, Jan Jansen, Korgan

Anomen 7
Aerie 6
Nalia 6
Haer'Daelis 6
Cernd 5
Keldorn 4
Yoshimo 2
Edwin 2
Minsk 1
Imoen 1
Valygar 1
Viconia 1
Jaheira (YES!) 1

And the rest:

Nalia's Aunt 2
Irenicus 1
Cromwell 1
Bodhi 1
Ellesime 1
Neeber 1
"You must gather..." 1

Is this it? Or there will be more changes? Stay tuned on this poll to find out

Karembeu · Post by **Karembeu** » Mon Jan 22, 2001 4:28 am

Can't believe that someone actually posted a vote on Jaheira...(how could anyone sane choose her as "most hated")....only reason must have been to piss me off.....Renyu may Helm judge you for your actions and Ubik what did you mean by "Jaheira - 1 (Yes)"????

Anomen bites.

He left us at a critical moment and after spending a fair amount of time trying to level his arrogant, worthless a$$ up. Also, everytime I clicked on him, I got "what is it?" in that petulant tone. I really wish I had read the spoilers beforehand on Anomen because he was a giant waste of time.

Otherwise, any cowled wizard or character who greets me with the sneering "I am one of the chosen" yadda yadda... I enjoyed that fight with Tolgerias immensely. I wish there was some command that I could give to strangle a character slowly.

And as for Neeber: I murdered him in broad daylight.

woo. I'm feeling kinda evil lately.

Aerie drives me crazy. "Did I tell you about how I lost my wings?"...No, Aerie, and I don't want to know. Shut up"....whine, whine whine. And every time, in the middle of ****ing combat.

I also cannot stand her voice. It's like fingernails on the chalkboard to me. In my most recent game, I did the circus quest and dropped her the moment I got to the Copper Coronet ("no, no, don't go back to the circus, dearie, you need to wait right here in this bar, share a table with this nice little dwarf over here, you ought to get along REALLY well...hehehehe.....")

Nalia's warcry is annoying, but otherwise she is fine to me. Ditto with Ano and his "what is it now?" sass. I simply envision myself giving him a backhand across the jaw evertime he says it.

Aerie has got to (and did) GO!
