Which character do you dislike?

Hades was definitely the best dad ever. Posideon is alright in my book but he seems pretty carefree while Zeus has a stick up his… Well, you know the phrase. I’m sad that Hades can’t be the dad anymore but I’m definitely okay with him being an uncle.

Redthegamr · 2017-12-30T21:20:57.852Z

Is it 'cause of the dad bug, or have they totally taken him out of the possible father running? I haven’t played CotG in a looong time and that worries me!

MichaelCrank · 2017-12-30T21:22:28.533Z

Rohie took Hades out as a option of a father. Only Zeus and Posideon can be the dad, however there might be a chance that Rohie will remove Posideon, making Zeus the permanent father of the MC. The story is currently being rewritten so who knows when the new material will be out.

Redthegamr · 2017-12-30T21:25:01.729Z

Aw, man… that totally sucks. But if it helps focus the story to have just one possible dad, I can get over it.

As a person, there are plenty of unsavory types in Choice of Games, Hosted Games, and the WIPs. Milius Black-Clad, the general from Choice of Kung Fu, Sherrif Preston, Prodigal. As a character? Hm… it’s hard for me to find a character in these games that I find unlikable, strictly as a character.

The MC from Heroes Rise, I guess. The sibling from Demon Mark, mostly because you get one intimate moment with them before they’re whisked off as a MacGuffin. The protagonists of 3Games, mostly because I find their particular voices very same-y.

MeltingPenguins · 2017-12-30T22:42:07.638Z

Interestingly enough: ALL characters (except Jury and sorta Crush) from heroes rise. Jury has so much potential and instead sergi has him be the constant butt-monkey… why exactly?

I also never really warmed up for any of the characters in Cannonfire Concerto, dunno why.
Hedonist from CCH (So… mission accomplished by the author?)

and on a personal note (which worries me a little):

I have developed a deep-seated hatred from one of the villains in my game. It’s at the point that I’m having equally too much fun writing them as I want to punch my monitor out of frustration over their vileness

CreepyPastaKittyFay · 2017-12-30T23:57:38.879Z

There’s a good few, so I’ll list just five. There’s a good few from the heros series, but the grandma is the top of my list. Thinking she knows what’s best for the mc, trying to control your life, and you’re kinda forced into caring about her, when I really didn’t care about her in the slightest.

The bad guy from guenevere(been a while since I’ve played the yp, his name is hard to spell as it’s not exactly common but begins with an m) he hurts your faye cat(or dog if you for some crazy reason chose that ) I can understand villains hurting and killing people, but animals? That’s just going too far. But yeah in all forms of media, games, films etc I always care way more when animals get hurt, animals are much, much easier to like than people. I can’t wait till we get the chance to kill that guy.

The posh socialite from double cross. Don’t know what her name is, really don’t care, my mc doesn’t get the chance to talk to her really, as she asks you your motivation for being a body guard, and if you pick for the action(as I do) she gets all snooty, looking down on you and doesn’t want to speak with you further. What a massive bitch.

Ellie from choice of robots, and the reporter too. They tried to get in the way of my plan to overthro humanity. My mc especially hated the reporter, as they liked him and his distane for the government, and he could’ve made for a good side kick if he hadn’t stood in my way. There’s a massive gap between my 4th and 5th entry, not sure for a fith entry. But probably your whole family from choice of the rockstar. Caspa is an awful bandmate, and I can never get him to stay without giving into all of his demands, and apparently you can have a family rock band, yet I’ve never managed to get it, and have no idea how you do.

A kind of subverted answer to the topic.

I wrote Victor to be a character people disliked and it was very surprising that people actually seemed to like him.

Mewsly · 2017-12-31T01:31:28.127Z

I wasn’t a big fan of JJ from Slammed. I mean, it seems like their issue with the MC could’ve been solved by them just asking for a real fight. They did not really need to go through all the hoops they did for their revenge.

Plus I turned down Evan to try to romance them and it was not worth it!

I’m also not the biggest fan of Lucky from Heroes Rise… I mean they’re fine, but they act like their so sweet and nice but they can be so mean to Black Magic. I don’t know, it just bothered me.

TrashyLollipops · 2017-12-31T04:53:27.316Z

I don’t want to be a downer or insult people who do this, but I always seem to dislike the best friend trope who is with you at the start of the game. This is mostly common, but I usually view them as an afterthought. I kind of like building friendships rather than having someone who likes/loves you unconditionally. I think having that option to select their gender takes the immersive aspect out as well. Explaining helps, but if romance is involved I find the other characters more interesting.

Fay · 2017-12-31T09:33:05.628Z

Really? I wanted Hades to be my father, but I got Poseidon instead. The moment I found out that I was the child of a fish-man I got really dissappointed. Are you telling me that in order to get the Hades route, I have to choose all the edgy choices? But then again, if the author really did remove Hades as an option then I’ll just have to accept that. Also, i’m kinda confused with the whole relative thing. Aeson > Hade’s son > Hade is Poseidon’s brother > Aeson and the MC are cousins? Are RO even available? Calypso > Daughter of Ares > Ares is Zeus’ son > Which makes Poseidon Ares’ uncle > Calypso and the MC is related??? Unless Gods don’t have DNA and our DNA is given to us by the human parent. A lot of the Gods are Zeus’ children, so aren’t all demigods technically related to each other?

resuri08 · 2017-12-31T09:36:37.157Z

The author has removed Hades as a father option. As for Poseidon, it’s not yet sure that he will be a father option. All we know as of now is Zeus is the confirmed father for the MC.

If I recall correctly, the gods don’t have DNA so the MC are not related to each other per se.

Fay · 2017-12-31T10:01:23.421Z

I played Children of the Gods yesterday and I got Poseidon as my father, so yes, Poseidon is actually available. Still dissappointed in myself that I got him though. But thanks for clearing things up!

resuri08 · 2017-12-31T10:07:53.228Z

The author haven’t update the whole demo so the link has a mixed contents from the updated and the original.

Spire · 2017-12-31T10:19:31.028Z

Zeus also married his sister and their children in turn comingled as well (eg. Aphrodite and Hephaestus). Never mind that all of the Titans are siblings and paired up. Clearly the Gods don’t play by the same rules as mortals or it’s all allegorical.

Fay · 2017-12-31T10:20:57.840Z

I know. And the night goddess Nyx had 50 children with her brother. But she’s still the night goddess, so I decided to name my MC Nyx.
I’m not edgy I swear

Dark_Stalker · 2018-01-01T00:46:46.146Z

Fay:

I’m not edgy I swear

Yeah not edgy, just incestuous.

Redthegamr · 2018-01-01T01:24:15.784Z

I like how this has turned into a psuedo-CotG discussion thread.

MeltingPenguins · 2018-01-01T01:38:42.778Z

Eh, move that to the game’s thread.

Dark_Stalker · 2018-01-01T02:30:16.910Z

I honestly thought I replied to the CotG thread for that last one
