Top 5 Most Hated NPC's in Online Games

After watching pacman's fight yesterday thanks to streaming, (lol at Cotto's running method up to round12) I was really happy that he is gaining a great name from 0 to hero they say.

Anyway this has nothing to do with what I'm about to write now, I just made a list of my top 5 most hated NPC. Well, if you love something you hate something too right? These are the times when you really want to grab the NPC through your monitor if you can, then just smash it to pieces or kill it badly!

I just want to share my ran- I mean.. My list... lol! Don't expect much as I only put the common jobs of NPCs that are used by most games.


5. NPC Job changer - not all! But some are really mean you just want to cry out loud. Ever experience being a noob? First time to play the game and you're so excited to change job that when you reach the right level the NPC would say "You need to give me this and this and this... and so on" before you can change your job.

Of course you have no choice but to follow the instructions of the NPC because whatever you do, you can't argue with it and it won’t answer back as it is only set to answer chosen questions.

Too bad your dream job is reachable but still feels it was taken away by the NPC.


4. NPC Dealers - Really! Can somebody just tell me where the hell it the right NPC to get the items/clothes I need?!

So many NPC scattered throughout the map that you are so confuse which one holds the right items you want to buy. Pretty mean right? Can't they just have a main store or mall where all the items are there? Do they really have to travel in different places then will ask for your help because they are stuck and can't move? I mean "What the? Why did you even bother leaving your town if you’re gonna be stuck in the middle of the dessert?!"

 

3. NPC random - they are the type of NPC were they have no significance at all. They just either complains a lot, talks to you automatically whenever you pass them by or just say nonsense. You don't even know what they are doing there anyway!

No quest nor items nor any important stories to say. Just a display in a corner of the street to make you be curious as to what could they possibly be doing there. Maybe will give you item if you talk to it, but no, regretfully, it's just there to make you forget what you are suppose to do for a while?

 

2. NPC PK mode - Not all have this but still it really bothers you to fight an NPC. Why on earth do they have godly stats? And you have to be really high level before bothering to defeat them??

Ok so the developers gave an answer to players demanding to kill the NPC by making a high leveled NPC. I just want to kill it, just make me feel like killing it for once because of their quest, items and upgrades but why can we only attack the same NPC? The one and only NPC that has a high skills?? That's too cruel!!

 

1. NPC Upgrader - I don't know about you guys but really I suck in luck BAD!! So BAD that I really want to just kill this NPC if I have to! Most online games have upgrader weapons, equipments and clothes. Almost all requires a good luck charm to be successful and if you’re one of the players who was chosen by the NPC that your item will be destroyed no matter what stats you have then you'll understand me.

Well luck is luck and whatever the chances are, you still have a chance to fail. Even if it’s a little percentage of fail, it still bothers you right? Especially if you worked hard to obtain the item you want. Don't want it to be destroyed in seconds.

Nothing seem to make you jaw drop by looking at your months of grinding item be destroyed in just 2 seconds. It hurts badly!!

 there is one i'd like to add in here: in most "respectable" MMORPGs you always get one screwy NPC in the main plot that makes you go from one side of the map to the other, then back again, then to another corner, then back again, then to the last corner, then back again. and it's all just so you can get an item that you need for the main story-line or something like that. i mean, come on, can't you just send me to kill off a monster or something instead of making me waste 5-6h travelling like a maniac through areas where i'd be an instant K.O. target if i didn't run like an athlete?

Its a toss up between the freaken old lady who sends you to the 4 corners of the earth 5 times to find her cat (or equivalent fluff item) or the NPC broker who decides he wants 5c  for your loot and then turns around and sells it for 5s
