Characters you Hate
Did you ever have a burning hatred against one of the characters in the walking dead (this includes 400 days). I hate a few characters; Lilly, Larry and Becca I f*cking hated her. So did you ever hate any characters? Who were they? Why did you hate them? How much did you hate them? Did you want to see them dead? Let me know.
Edit: I forgot to mention Christa. I also forgot to mention Vernon I hate him, he stole our boat and if you have seen my post in the 'Would you kill Vernon' thread you know how much I want to kill him and in the harshness way possible, sadly he's already dead but I don't really believe its true.

EDIT: Forgot about Vernon, thanks for reminding me Sandwich. Hate him too. (Vernon, not Sandwich.)
I HATED Christa, the condescending way she spoke to Lee when they'd only met 5 minutes previously... If there'd been a "pimp slap this ho" option I'd have taken it. I liked her by mid episode 5, she makes a horrible first impression, but her heart is in the right place. I surprised myself when I told her that she and Omid needed to take Clem.
I hated Ben, Episode 4 does a great job of making you hate him, I already wanted him dead after 3. I dropped him and never looked back.
I also hated Larry, after all he tried to kill me. I never saw past that even though he was slightly more bearable in Episode 2.
I didn't really like the Molly character, but nothing to do with Molly, just her superpowers were straight out of the Resident Evil movies.
Hate Vernon.
I hated Ben from middle of episode 3 to late episode 4. Gotta remember he's just a kid at heart.
I hate Lilly period.
Hated Larry in episode 1, but I didn't mind him in episode 2. Let's just say he got just desserts, with some salt.
Didn't like Molly's attitude at first.
I hate Nate(in a good way).
I didn't like Becca, but I didn't mind her too much. I understand her problem to an extent. If you play the game several times and explore her character you'll find she doesn't actually WANT people to die, and she doesn't like what is happening. She's just a scared little girl, and she puts on a face to stop from showing it. Try giving her the gun to kill Stephanie after she asks to do it and she'll tell you to do it after giving you a look. I think she'll get better or worse in season 2 depending on how you play the game.
I can't really hate Ben because all he is, is hopeless and it isn't his fault
I never hated Lilly it wasn't her fault and I blame Doug for stopping her...
I don't hate Vernon but I am disappointed in him as he seemed like a good guy...
Nate is a loveable psycho...
Becca is realistic and is what Clem will probably become...
The only character I really hated was Kenny, he was treacherous, untrustworthy, judgemental and after all I did he left me for dead, never helped me didn't help me with Clem and would rather have a fist fight or a drink then be constructive...
He was partially responsible for the deaths of Kenny, Ben, and Lee.
You dislike Kenny, but do you dislike the stache?
Kenny - I liked Kenny until Ep. 4. Then I was just DONE.
Lilly - At first I hated her, then I kinda liked her, then I hated her even more in Ep. 3.
Larry - I never liked Larry. I only liked a few of his lines, but that's it.
Vernon - I had mad respect for him until Ep. 5...
Brie - God, I was happy when she died.
Mark - Every time he opened his mouth I just wanted to punch him in it.
The Stranger - I like how he says he doesn't believe in vengeance, yet he wants to "hurt Lee so bad" for ruining his life. XD
2. Ben - I could forgive the fact he was a total liability if it wasn't for the fact he just comes across as selfish to me. He'll feel bad about it later, but when the chips are down, he'll think of himself. I began to realise this late in episode three after his role with the bandits became clear (admitting it long after anything could have been done to save Katjaa, Duck or Carley) and it was cemented when he left Clementine. When he asked me to drop him he finally got a call right.
3. Larry - was an arsehole. Unlike the first two it wouldn't be fair to call him a traitor and he was only looking out for his daughter. Undeniable though that he attitude made it a lot easier to do the pragmatic thing when the time came.
As for Vernon... i don't know. I can see where some intentions could have came from, but stories from the cancer survivors in 400 days look damning of his morality. I would need to meet him again to see how i feel. Possible target of vengeance.
2. Kenny started hating him after the end of "Starved for Help" he started growing that "I hate you for siding againts me once" mentality
3. Ben - ... needs no description, saved his ass though...
4. The Saint Johns - I put my trust in them just for them to kill Mark..
After playing the game, upon reflection I wondered if I was harsh for seeing Kenny as a dick and tried to see things from his point of view and then it hit me. I thought he was a dick and had my personal reasons but the in game (npc) characters seemed to think he was a dick too and i'm not talking about Lilly and Larry. Christa definitely agreed with me and thought Kenny was a prick, wanted to kick his arse a couple of times like when Omid was hurt and Kenny said he would leave without Omid when he wanted to search for a boat. She was particularly unimpressed when Kenny didn't want to look for Clementine. Molly thought Kenny was a dick and ended up kicking his arse after 5 minutes of meeting him and he never grew on her either. The remaining characters seemed indifferent and could take him or leave him. The only in game characters that really had time for Kenny was his family.
Carley kinda liked him, as did Doug. Ben likes him past episode 3. "I got to know the guy better, and he's not a bad guy."
Larry doesn't like anyone. Lilly automatically had a grudge on him when he stood up for YOU, CLEM, and his family. Especially when Carley called him boss, and they fought for leadership since that moment xD. Christa hated him because she wouldn't involve herself or tell anything about herself to them(Which you need to in a ZA), because Kenny was on their case, and of course is on their case because they joined them what a few days before Lee dies? And also because Christa tries to lead when THEY are the newbees of the group? "He needs to rest!" "We go to the countryside!" Notice the "we"? Or because Kenny is trying to get rid of a liability? Like Ben or Omid? Yeah, they went into a town not knowing what they'd find with three people they barely know, a crazy dude on the radio, and one of the strangers has a messed up leg. So you know, just because people hate Kenny, doesn't mean you should too. Also doesn't mean they were in the right.
But meh, I understand why people can hate him, just as much as he'd hate you xD.
This, everyone casts out Lilly for killing another member out if the blue, but Larry straight-up pushes you into the horde in Episode 1! Thankfully my bro Kenny was there to help me up, I wanted to whoop the fat asshole after that.
Then I did a second playthrough. In my first, somehow I made all the right decisions, doing the right thing and also making Kenny feel like I "had his back". This second time I messed up on the train and he beat the crap out of me. When we were going to find Clem he claimed I only ever looked out for myself! To his credit he did come along when I appealed to his respect for family ties.
Now I realize, Larry is a brute, but has clear, decent reasons for distrusting Lee, and at least his disposition is honest and uncomplicated. Kenny, on the other hand, is childish and unreasonable. He can't seem to wrap his head around the fact that *we're all in this together*. On the outside he's very likeable. On the inside he's a jackass.
That isn't to say I hate him, but I surely don't respect him like I used to.
Lilly's a whole other story. She just lost her head. Hard to blame her for that. At the same time she totally crossed the line. Hard to forgive her for that. Never did like her, never will trust her, but I do sympathize with her *somewhat*.
I almost completely agree with this...
Larry isn't likeable but Lee is a murderer and he knows it...
Kenny forgets everything you do as shown by the line 'well what as she done for me lately' when he talks about Molly who saved his life... a few hours ago...
I still dont get how Larry knew about Lee's past. There's no internet devices around, barely any radio. Yes, thats TTGs story for Larry's position for not liking Lee but it doesnt make sense. Carley knew cause she was a reporter, Larry is like a freakin garage mechanic or something for the local army base, where is he getting all this info?
don't you think the murder of a senator would be in the newspaper?
Yep, so it should have been common knowledge then right? Why isnt he immediately flagged by Seth, his Dad and everyone in the drug store? It's too convenient that the love interest and your unshakable nemesis are the only two who can put the pieces together
lol, I cant even hate Ben, but reading your post its pretty clear TTG put him in to totally test the patience of even the most reasonable player. He's literally in the game to f*** everything up, he has not even 1 redeeming quality. What Im saying is even though I hated Larry, I saw potential, I tried to sway him with favor- Ben is just there to ruin everyone's game with maximum dmg
i guess it is a bit convenient that not everybody recognised him, but not everybody follows the news that closely
Kenny's a little more problematic. He can be a good man if he tries, but has a selfish streak a mile wide, not to mention vindictive as hell. If it doesn't concern him and his family, he couldn't care less. Kenny learns the hard way an attitude like that is no more dangerous during a zombie apocalypse than being recklessly naive.
Kenny: I still have a love/hate relationship with him depending on his current level of violent hypocrisy. I think he's a good character, and added a very human level of conflict, but I'd be hard pressed to call him a good friend.
Ben: I pitied him, but just about every single action he did in episode 4 made me increasingly dislike him. Where his cowardice became more selfish and his level of incompetence pushed the boundaries of my suspension of disbelief. Surely he could have been a screw-up in a more realistic way than unbarring the door?
Then there's Molly.. I've said it before, the semi-teleporting with mastery of melee and unrehearsed parkour can feel out of place as it is, but I was just never really a fan of her characterization. It's not like other characters, where their abrasive attitudes were a result of stress or for trying to argue their points of view which you could call them out for, you were supposed to find levity in Molly's snarky attitude, no matter how inappropriate the timing of it was.
I can't say I hated Lilly, but there was no way she was sticking with us after she killed someone out of nowhere. There was no need for that, and that's not the kind of group we were. It seems generally like all the likable characters get killed, or are left with an ambiguous fate at best, while the worst characters get to live on, or come back in even worse ways possible...or simply never heard from ever again.
I can think of one: he hates himself for the trouble he's caused.
