There are bosses in video games, may it be the story or the tragic character it self that happens to be a game boss that you feel bad killing.



Ariamis is a cold, snowy world that exists within a painting.
It is the home of Priscilla, the dragon-human cross-breed. As a strange hybrid she had no place in the real world, and after clutching her Peculiar Doll for comfort she was somehow drawn into a painting.

#1 Crossbreed Prescilla, half dragon.



#2 Sif the Great Grey Wolf.
Im torn between killing this beauty, though he has killed me countless time -_- mostly 1 shots me



#3 World of Warcraft Wrath of Litch King.
When you start out as Death Knight, when your friend begged you to finish her before the guards arrive >.<

Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time - General Azimuth. He wasn't really evil, just sort of misguided. All he wanted was to bring back the rest of his race at any cost. He even redeemed himself in the end, sacrificing his life to reverse his own plans (which would have destroyed time itself). It wound up being a really sad ending for a fairly lighthearted game series.

The demon child in Dragon Age Origin. Don't know why but I just can't kill him.

Killing her was pretty dang nasty of you, but needed to complete the game.

Vinland have sexy voice

Though not a boss, I felt pretty bad killing the Chozo Ghosts in Metroid Prime. They were just peaceful spirits, driven insane by Phazon corruption.

Killing this one hobo in GTA iv, just because someone calls you in the game and says something like He was my friend and whatnot.
It felt terrible.

I think you missed the point of the thread. This is "Video Game Characters you feel bad killing," not "characters that made you want to put a foot through the TV."

The dog is there to help you catch the ducks; he is your friend and you want to shoot him? How awful.

Darth Traya out of KotOR 2 is a fairly typical example.

The Lich King. Poor, poor misguided Arthas.

Took lots os pleasure killing Deathwing though!

Can't wait for MoP!

Anders.
But dude went to far man. Way to far.

Aye, the harpies and infected red guys are totally gnashing their teeth and wailing, while she is deploring you to leave everyone be.

It's the same set up, but no where near the same execution.

Yes :'< now I'll cherish my Astraea Sword

KOTOR - Darkside Ending.

Before you go to the Starforge you basically kill half of your crew.

It would be nice if you could have at least turned some more.

Making the Wookie kill the Twilek is still a hilariously twisted possibility in that game.

So I didn't really feel bad, more 'What a waste'.

Actually I didn't like having to kill 343 Guilty Spark. Was a pretty lame thing for Bungie to have him go Rampant again.

There's a few (if given the choice I ususally take the good side, sometimes without even realising in the case of when I'm trying to be evil ), but off the top of my head first one that came to mind was the portal turret.

OMG YES there is a time in portal 2 towards the end where there are sentry guns not programmed to kill you,
and I tried to take it as far as I can attempting to save it... but it died when I went through a gate TT-TT

Mr. House in Fallout: New Vegas.

Dealing with him always leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

But, I do what I feel is the best for the Mojave.

I hate killing them, too.

So I side with the NCR and negotiate a treaty.

I hated killing them as well, so I saved and branched at that point.

Anders in DragonAge 2 (i loved the game. leave me alone)

The whole town of Megaton

Kreia from KOTOR2

Teepo from Breath of Fire 3

Andrew Ryan from Bioshock (he probably deserved it but i did NOT want it to go that way)

Sniper Wolf. i even used missiles and aimed at her head to avoid her being 'lung shot' - denied.. :-(



Also she was hotter than Meryl

HL2 zombies.
