wat.

Me.

bats from minecraft, they do nothing -_-

but if you're looking for actual people, then maybe... The Ladies from Mount&Blade, they take your money and give it to people to make them not hate you -_- really?

The blue birds from Angry Birds... I can break glass with ANY bird, you worthless triplets D:

Magikarp. 'Nuff said

Bomb from Knuckles' Chaotix. I could put Heavy here too, but at least Heavy can't get hit by enemies. Bomb's good point is that he's marginally faster than the other characters, but he explodes every time he gets hit, and hurts you.

Rog from Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005). He gives you tips on things like pursuit-breakers, how to use them, etc....after you already know them. He gives them too late.

I didn't say Mia,even though she was an undercover cop that turned out to be helping you, because she drove you to the car lot after your BMW M3 GTR got stolen by that asshole Razor,gave you tips on how to evade a police chopper (before you unlocked the heat level to actually run from the chopper), threw you the keys to your BMW at the end, and even called you and told you how to escape both the final pursuit and Rockport City itself.Although it took 5 minutes for her to actually do that.

Phyllis from Animal crossing.

She is a jerk.

I'd prolly say Rook from Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies tutorial. He's exactly that. Kills like, five zombies in Kino, and gets put down by Dempsey. So...Yea. Rook.

Balbus from Skyrim. He walks around, picks up random spices and stuff from the ground for the Gourmet (Who he doesn't even know.), carries a fork wherever he goes, runs away from bandits and skeletons which die very easily but seeing a dragon he attacks and ends up getting himself killed. What is his point? He's not from a quest, he doesn't sell anything, and he doesn't even have anything when he dies (Except his fork and his clothes.) so he's pointless.

I must say...
Function wise:
Someone that is important to the story but doesn't do crap?
Most Call of Duty Npcs. I watched their behavior and they shoot at enemies sure, but they don't actually kill them...

How about the police in GTA?

Hmmm...

























Navi...

The Obsessed Fan in Oblivion

Sticky from Fallout 3

claptrap from both the borderlands games!

that one guy in that one video game.

Johnny Waffles in Borderlands 2... He just stands there and says nothing; he only moves his head and yells at Claptrap when he rolls by... He doesn't even give you any quests, nor does he participate in any.

Duck from "The Walking Dead"
HE IS SO ANNOYING

Moved to Gaming and Technology

As for the most useless, person I'd have to vote for any NPC that stands around for background and environment. They don't do anything except tell you things that are irrelevant or not even worth mentioning.

/move

[deleted]

Every single child in Skyrim...you can't kill them, therefore they are useless.

FOX GET THIS GUY OFF ME!

Any character that just stands there and doesn't talk or do anything

Mario (from Mario)

If you play as Spock in the new game, kirk is soooo useless and glitchy.

Gungans in Starwars Battlefront II. Nuff' said. They commit suicide upon spawning.

That dude from pokemon emerald....idk what his name was...not wally...not may...not the professer

so... much uselessness...

Natalya, from Golden Eye and Navi, from LoZ.

Guys, guys, guys.... Navi...

There's that Magikarp Salesman NPC in Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow and now of course Fire Red/Leaf Green that will sell you a magikarp for 500 pokedollars. What a rip off.

THE TOAD!

Steve... JK
But I would probably say all the pedestrians in GTA V. Very carefully coded, with different looks and different conversations... And they do, like, nothing. They are fun because they are so nicely made, but it's a little overkill I think.

I'd say Peach in Mario o3o
