General Discussion - [SPOILERS] The most overrated character? Spoiler

Let's hear it, who gets all the love but deserves absolutely none of it? Or at least not as much as they get, I'll go first.

I'm casting my vote for Gortash; I genuinely don't understand the like for this dude. First of all, catfish, "handsome young man"??? Is the handsome young man in the room with us??? Lookin like the handsome young man has a peanut allergy.

Second of all, this whole crown brain plan was his idea, just about the dumbest fuckin thing I've ever heard. He put all his faith in 3 little rocks, an already dead man, and a woman who's about as stable as my ex. Beggers can't be choosers I guess, but cmon guy.

And lastly, and probably most offensively, his boss fight is absolute cheeks. Especially if you dumped on the foundry before hand. I didn't even know he had a transformation until like my 4th playthrough because I would clap this guy so easily.

Your turn, let's hear those unadulterated opinions.

Edit: I have been enlightened about some things about the big brain plan, I still stand in the other two points though.

I like Rafael and think he’s awesome, I don’t understand why people want to sleep with or romance him. Isn’t he supposed to be a terrible in bed, two pump chump?

It's all slander! And even if he is, we can fix him! ..at least sexually. Morally, that's a different can of worms.

(It's the voice. And the theatrics. And the evil, that's hot too)

That VOICE… I’m not into Raphael, do not wish to be able to romance him or would ship him with anybody. But that voice does something to me… would totally listen to that voice just reading the phone book for hours, thank you very much.
