XCOM

Enough said.
hey dude xcom soldiers are only as bad as you make them
if you're talking about FUKCING SECTOPODS THOUGH forget THAT GAY stuff


Any AI player on a game of Dawn of War that's on Hard difficulty or higher.
I swear to god it shouldn't be POSSIBLE to have seven vehicles and a maxed out squad cap in three minutes.
Oh and don't forget the Space Marines on any difficulty. They took my Necron Restored Monolith from a full 10,000 health to dead in seconds.

the ai system in command and conquer is generally pretty terrible.

their defense systems are 'eh just place one of each turret and you'll be fine', they churn out units til the money runs dry, they have an instantaneous reaction time, and therefore, build way faster than you (by the time you move your mouse to the right location for the power plant, they've already queued five)

it really doesn't help that they don't adapt to the situation at all. if you have a base with only one land entrance (the one marked on the map. ai can't do stuff on any map unless everything is specifically marked in the map editor. i know, i've been there.), then by god every unit has to go through there. even if they have like a billion planes, they're still funnel all of them though there.

"Any chance you'll share your food with me tonight?"
"Think you'll get your own squad after what happened last night?"
"Shall we gather for Whiskey and Cigars tonight?"

Whenever I get bored in gmod, I load up construct and spawn national socialists with father Gregori's Annabelle. I spawn some allies with guns, probably hostages. And save them. But the Annabelle is accurate as forget, and it takes 3 shots to kill me/allies. Makes me mad.

"Buzz off"

could navi from ocarina of time count as an NPC?

STALKER.

All i have to say, forget bloodsuckers, forget people seeing me through thick fog, forget chimeras, forget those NPCs.

Navi was mentioned in the main topic post, if you didn't notice


apologies i went straight for hitman 2 and skipped the first paragraph

STALKER.

Oh boy, STALKER. Where the voice acting can get repetitive sometimes.

"GET OUT OF HEER STALKER" (Over and over. Constantly.)
"HOWDY HO!" (Every single time you pass by someone.)
"POPPIN SUMTIEM IT CAN BE FUN AROUND HEEEEERE!" or "ALOHAAAAA!" (Hawaiian never shutting the hell up)

The monolith troopers in Call of Pripyat also count due to how easily they can kill the other military members, especially the preacher with his Gauss Rifle. Then there's the final stretch of the game...
