The most annoying questgivers in PC games
The article ranks video game characters who make irritating questgivers, arguing that Fallout 3’s cheerful Moira Brown is unfairly maligned compared with others. It highlights characters whose missions combine tedious tasks, frustrating mechanics or unpleasant behaviour, making players spend time helping people they would rather avoid.
Examples include Zero in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, whose remote-control plane mission is made harder by poor flying controls and rapidly draining fuel; Oblivion’s Falcar, who sends the player after a heavy ring before fleeing; and Batman: Arkham Knight’s Riddler, whose challenges include collecting trophies, solving riddles and navigating Batmobile tracks. The article also mentions OG Loc as another irritating San Andreas character, while praising Moira’s rewards and the usefulness of the Wasteland Survival Guide.
In short
- Moira Brown gets an unfairly bad reputation.
- Zero’s fuel-limited plane mission is especially frustrating.
- Falcar and the Riddler add tedious tasks.
