try as they may some characters just
don’t find the love they seek welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
unrequited loves in video games I think
I could find more than happiness with
you but my self-control is Who I am
for this list we’re taking a look at the
most intriguing examples of video game
romances that can be called one-sided or
left unresolved be they rooted in
fantasy or an approximation of reality
these romances are all united in their
fruitlessness just be aware that there
are quite a few spoilers up ahead so
you’ve been warned never warm up to
anyone cuz you set your standards so
goddamn high number 10 Dante and Lady
Devil May Cry series did you kill him so
what if I did enjoyable as the back and
forth is there’s hints of something more
at the margins hmm I’ll think about it
when introduced in Devil May Cry 3 the
demon hunter lady was consumed by the
hunt for her father Arkham crossing
paths with Dante in the process there’s
something so exciting about all this as
events progressed it became clearer that
lady cared for Dante to some degree
beyond friendship opening up to him and
comforting him in tough times maybe some
they’re even a devil may cry when he
loses a left
don’t you think yet Dante perhaps
because of his natural flippancy does
not appear to reciprocate such feelings
though that doesn’t stop him from
exhibiting gentlemanly behavior
aren’t you gonna shoot well that’s a
switch
number 9 Sly Cooper and Carmelita Fox
Sly Cooper series are you in law
enforcement I often deal with police
while on the job a thief and a cop a
match made in heaven at the very least
it’s an interesting dynamic chaired
between master thief Sly Cooper and
Interpol inspector Carmelita Fox I am
NOT looking for a conniving two-bit
thieving raccoon sli’s dedication to his
family’s heritage of thieving often
comes into conflict with Carmelita’s
dedication to the law
tell me stranger what’s your name why
ruin the moment
further frustrating the issue is the
clear romantic undertone that arises
whenever they cross paths
you foolish raccoon I’ve caught you
red-handed ah Carmelita
it’s readily apparent that they like and
respect one another but only time will
tell if the future is bright for this
duo so if you don’t have a criminal
record or live in a van with a turtle
and a hippopotamus or sneak around in
the middle of the night breaking the law
send me a message no Breet soulless and
the Inquisitor Dragon Age Inquisition
and right then I felt the whole world
change duty is a noble thing rendered
tragic in this instance I’m sorry
if players elect to make their character
in Dragon Age Inquisition a female elf
then they have the opportunity to
attempt to romance with soulless an
elven mage magical surprises I can
handle polite and reasonable in nature
soulless also appears to grow more
interested in a relationship but is you
know secretly bound to a plan to destroy
the world
this fact coupled with the ambiguous
nature and heart-wrenching manner in
which he departs the inquisitors company
doesn’t leave much in the way of hope
then it’s over
how lovely number seven kanji Kazumi and
no Toshiro Gani persona for series I
just don’t understand why you’re being
so loud about it and blush him so
fiercely who isn’t blushing sometimes
people just aren’t interested plain and
simple in the persona for games
kanji katsumi a first year student at
yeah so got me high copes with his
feelings for the seemingly male high
school detective Naruto he’s a guy and
I’m a guy but he’s interested in me Khan
geez turmoil over his own sexuality and
misinterpretation of Naruto’s intent
makes for more than a few awkward
exchanges up to the reveal of Naruto
being an androgynous girl well I am it
was a changing face even after that
point
Naoto remains disinterested in kanji
though they still maintain a solid
friendship relatability aside I feel
like you and miles away from me to begin
with number 6 princess bruto and Link
The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
talk about a misunderstanding during his
quest to find the spiritual stones young
link is tasked with venturing into the
belly of Lord Jammu Jammu in order to
rescue ruto princess of Azura’s all is
well and good until link requests or a
Sapphire from Ruto not realizing that
taking it constitutes a marriage pledge
even after links seven-year slumbers
ruto remains dedicated to their
engagement which makes links confusion
and potential lack of interest more than
a little depressing it might be time to
move on fish lady number 5 Leon Kennedy
and Ada Wong Resident Evil series some
part of us wishes this relationship
would go further from their first
meeting in Resident Evil 2 former cop
Leon Kennedy and secret agent Ada Wong
have had hints of romance and mutual
respect in every encounter the
possibility of unforeseen problems is
there but I need him in the supporting
role for me to achieve my goals whether
dealing with debilitating parasites or
battling mutated bosses there’s no
shortage of ship teasing in scenes
involving these two what are you doing
here
I was about to ask you the same thing
yet perhaps because of their stations in
life Leon being part of the US
government ADA being morally ambiguous
they remain at arm’s length number 4 Amy
Rose and Sonic Sonic the Hedgehog series
how’d you get here heroism can inspire
many things including it seems love the
good old
hanging out with my hero Sonic during
the events of Sonic CD Sega’s speedy
mascot Sonic went about traveling
through time in order to rescue the
female Hedgehog Amy rose from dr.
Robotnik’s clutches
this single impressive feat endeared Amy
to Sonic get out of my way Amy this is
my mission over the course of subsequent
games amy was fixated on convincing
Sonic to reciprocate her love sadly
because of Sonic’s aloofness and seeming
disinterest in commitment this may all
be a pipe dream although that doesn’t
stop Amy from showing her concern if I
tell you will you marry me no way I
thought I had you this time number 3
Otto Kahn and Sniper Wolf Metal Gear
Solid yes it’s her it’s definitely her
on a con you sound like you’re happy
leave it to hideo kojima to take an odd
scenario and give it emotional weight I
don’t know why but she’s nice to me
sounds like Stockholm Syndrome to me
during the events of Metal Gear Solid
computer engineer Hal Emmerich better
known as Otto Kahn reveals his affection
for the Foxhound member Sniper Wolf
snake please don’t kill her are you
insane infatuated with the elite sniper
for showing him just a little bit of
decency Otto Kahn’s interest in wolf is
certainly sincere if perhaps naive
considering the circumstances women
naturally make better soldiers wolf
don’t do this snake I’m near
unfortunately the possibility of Otto
Kahn forming a full-fledged relationship
with wolf was cut short by her death at
the hands of solid snake which Otto Kahn
was tragically present to witness I
loved you
number two Bowser and Princess Peach
Mario series
ah the classic tale about a princess and
her evil turtle king from the first
Super Mario Brothers game the kidnapping
of Princess Peach by King Bowser has had
something of a one-sided romantic
subtext to it though it varies from game
to game hints exist of Bowser being in
love with peach prompting everything
from going along with a forced marriage
to uprooting Peach’s castle
however peach continuously remains
disinterested in or at least resistant
to Bowser’s various advances we imagine
a certain redheaded plumber as a factor
here but that’s just our theory my mom
alone you Batman I will fight you
mamacita way before we unveil our top
pick here are a few honorable mentions
in another time another life
number one niko bellic and Michelle
Grand Theft Auto 4 this is Michelle hi
how are you my place is over on Mohawk
Avenue it’s both unexpected and somewhat
sad in a way
early in Grand Theft Auto 4 niko bellic
is introduced to michelle and encouraged
to go out with her thanks give me a call
sometime
see you soon michelle their relationship
seems to develop nicely with Niko’s
charm seeming to interest Michelle your
strange girl Michelle funny girl sadly
Michelle is not who she seems to be her
real name is Karen Daniels and she’s a
government agent sent to spy on Nikko I
don’t fucking believe this
listen I’m sorry
it had to be this way Niko I’m really
sorry the reveal of this information
casts Karen’s actions into a cynical
light setting the tone for the rest of
the game and leaving Niko more than a
little bitter listen I know what you
must be thinking but don’t bother I’m
sorry but I don’t see how you know what
I must be thinking you’ve killed people
do you agree with our list better make
sure you’re the champion in the end what
unrequited video game love were you
