when it comes to assembling the perfect
party don’t pick these guys welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
worst RPG party members the more good
you do the less they want to admit that
something needed doing I can already see
they lost a fine soldier Jacob
before we begin we publish new videos
every day so be sure to subscribe for
more great content for this list we’re
looking at companions across
role-playing games that have annoyed us
to no end whether it be because of their
personality or simply their overall
uselessness I’m sure you don’t you
remember you promised me number 10 Lydia
the elderscrolls v Skyrim yarl has
appointed me to be your house Karl it’s
an honor to serve you not everyone in
Skyrim is worthy of joining us on her
adventures one character that comes to
mind is the Nordhaus Karl Lydia this
walking piece of cardboard isn’t exactly
weak but she isn’t exactly smart either
in fact she’s not really much of
anything you know nothing about her is
actually remotely interesting and during
our travels with her she states the
obvious far too often on top of that
you’ll find yourself having to save her
tail in combat frequently making her
even more of a burden with her
repetitive dialogue empty personality
and basic uselessness in combat Lydia is
one of those companions you just gonna
have to leave sitting in the tavern as
my vain I’m sworn to your service I’ll
guard you and all you own with my life
number 9 Cloud Strife Final Fantasy
Tactics
[Music]
Cloud Strife will always be one of our
favorite Final Fantasy characters but
tactics has to be is worst outing yet
unlocking him is a total pain in the ass
and your hard work won’t be over after
you recruit him you’ll not only have to
grind to get him to the same level as
the rest of your party but you’ll also
have to retrieve the materia blade if
you want to access his Limit Breaks
skills he may have high attack in magic
but all that work leaves us questioning
if unlocking him is even worth it at all
spoiler alert
no it isn’t
[Music]
abrete goombario Paper Mario and as much
as we like the idea of a Goomba for a
friend did we really have to have one as
lame as goombario I guess he’s kind of
cute but this little guy just isn’t very
good in combat well okay he’s alright in
the first portion of the game but it’s
highly unlikely that you’re gonna use
him later down the road
given his terrible moveset why do we
need someone who plays like Mario when
we already have Mario plus his charge
move only increases this attack by a
very small margin we know it stacks but
10 damage and 5 turns really isn’t worth
it goombario is just weeks off dude
[Music]
number seven solace Dragon Age
Inquisition
everyone is happy under the kyun what’s
the sacrifice for a few lives to keep
people from discomfort I should thank
you Inquisitor we understand that you’re
not supposed to like the villain but
when it comes to someone like soulless
it’s a completely different kind of
dislike in other words he’s kind of a
piece of crap as you might expect from a
know-it-all mage solace comes off as
pretentious and very self-important
joke’s on him though as we can make the
claim man without a doubt he is the most
boring character in the Dragon Age
series just hearing him talk makes us
kind of want to snap the veil took
everything from the house even
themselves number six Vanille Final
Fantasy 13 how’s this great fine there
are a lot of unlikable characters in
this series and we mean the Final
Fantasy 13 series because they made like
three of them however if we had to
choose just one Vanille is the absolute
worst she falls into the trope of being
so unbearably sweet in Edith’s fate that
it quickly becomes annoying and
frustrating if her personality isn’t
enough to irritate you then maybe her
voice will should she ever appear in
future titles you can bet that you’ll be
leaving her on the bench
[Music]
I’m so sorry
what else please say number five adoring
fan the Elder Scrolls for oblivion I saw
you all fight against the grey prince
you’re the best can I can I follow you
around I won’t get in the way some
worshipper this schmuck is given how
obsessed this guy is with us since we’re
the arena champion and all you’d think
that he’d do your every bidding instead
of aiding you in combat though this
scoop of mustard runs away in cowers
sometimes he’ll run around in the middle
of combat nearly getting his whiny ass
kill your patience will definitely be
severely tested and you’ll soon find
yourself wanting him to basically die by
Azurill Azurill
bhai Asura look at all the different
ways we can get rid of his chatterbox
until he responds a couple of in-game
days later crap golly you’re the best
I’m going to follow you and watch you
and worship the ground you walk on
let’s go number four Ian’s fall out it’s
truly jaw-dropping how this guy has
managed to even survive the wasteland
you’ll be regretting your decision in
enlisting his help faster than a preston
garvey gets the word out to you that
another settlement needs your help
ian is a total idiot when it comes to
combat you can give him all the best
weapons and ammunition you want and the
guy will never figure out how to reload
let alone how to switch weapons no
quickly resort to fists and will chase
the enemy to the ends of the world too
so if he dies in combat or you can’t
seem to find him your best option is to
just cut your losses and ditch number 3
Jacob Taylor Mass Effect 2 all right the
others didn’t make it what are you doing
here I’m supposed to be protecting these
people from the illusive man and his
attack dogs assembling your party in a
Mass Effect game is about more than just
combat ability the characters you choose
to be by your side will drastically
affect your experience in the game’s
story virtually the only thing wrong
with Mass Effect 2 Jakob tries to act
all brave and bold but only ever comes
off as thick-headed it’s kind of like he
wants to be the hero or something
the game tries selling us on the fact
that he’s a strong soldier but his bland
personality is what keeps his butt on
the bench the only time you’ll bring him
on a mission is probably when he’s the
only party member available at the
beginning of the game otherwise he can
just stay on the ship number 2 joghurt
shining force look we love Joker it’s
design he’s an adorable little gopher
thing with a helmet we would love to
have him in the party if his stats were
so utterly terrible yogurt joins at
level 1 with 1 HP one attack one defense
and one agility his strongest stat is 7
in movement though here’s the real
kicker no matter what you do
yogurt can never level up he’s
permanently stuck at level 1 if and this
is a big if you do manage to kill an
enemy with this adorable little weirdo
you’ll get a yogurt ring which you can
equip to any character to make them look
like yogurt great we hate to say it but
this little guy is gonna have to sit out
this adventure number one take sip Final
Fantasy 7 he’s not only the worst RPG
party member but my extension he’s also
the worst final fantasy character kate
has no redeeming value to his existence
appearing only to serve as comic relief
sure he has to serve some use in combat
right well if you’re a gambler most of
Kate’s Limit Breaks
are based on luck which means his
attacks range from unbelievably powerful
to completely weak or better yet could
lead to an instant game over for you in
your party cloud and company are better
off without this weirdo on their side
that is of course unless you plan on
exploiting his slot ability to speed
roam do you agree with our picks check
