For me I like Steve Burnside from Code Veronica despite the entire RE fanbase claiming him as one of the worst characters of all time.

Maybe Ashley from Mass Effect as well.

I liked Ashley from RE4. I know that a lot of people dislike the escort mission nature of that game, but I thought it was fitting.

Can't think of any video games characters tbh, but I liked Rey in The Force Awakens... although I found myself caring much less about her character (or lack thereof) as the trilogy progressed.

I didn't mind her, but I thought she was a little bland in a game with so many great characters.

Oh I guess Peebee from Mass Effect Andromeda. I actually liked all the squadmates in that game except Liam.

Ashley felt like someone you were supposed to dislike, a shitty person that happened to be on your side. Yeah people don't like it her, but I don't think it's because she's a bad character.

I don't really know any universally agreed upon bad characters that I like now that you mention it. Horizon Zero Dawn fans seem to hate Aloy a lot, but that feels pretty contentious and I don't really think the fans that hate her have any good reasons to do so.

Edit: it kind of feels like most modern characters that get a lot of hate are women...

she's probably the only character in the game that I liked, actually.

I'm playing CVX for the first time and yeah Steve has been pretty grating from the things I've seen. I kinda wanted to punch him through my screen lol. But I did just get to the part where he killed his zombie dad and told a bit of his backstory which was pretty sad and I sympathize with him.

I Honestly think Steve is one of the more developed and well written characters of the RE series. It's just he had a really obnoxious voice actor.

She's not universally hated, but I know some people didn't like Kreia from Kotor 2 because she bitches at you about your actions sometimes no matter what you do. I think she's an interesting character, though.

When I was a kid I thought Tingle from Majoras Mask was funny. Didnt learn until much later that everyone hated him >_>

Also I stan Yuffie in FF7, which seems to be an unpopular opinion <_<

Duck Hunt Dog is a great answer. He's one of my all-time favorite additions to Smash Bros tbh.

I also have a soft spot for Big the Cat and unironically enjoyed his fishing levels in Sonic Adventure.

Carth Onasi. A good guy who's been through shit and not afraid of a fight,
I didn't know people disliked Carth. I mean, he's got issues but:

1. You don't have to drag them out of him. In fact, he goes out of his way to not bring them up.
2. He's a more or less well-adjusted character anyway.

The one I didn't like was Atton. They should have just given you the option to throw him out the airlock in that first area, and they should have given you light side points for it.

Tidus immediately comes to mind.

Instances where I don't love the character / creature in question but never really understood the hate include Penelo, the Adoring Fan, Fargoth, and Cliff Racers

Vaan deserves the hate.
