2013 added someamazing new charactersto our medium, but it also brought with it some serious stinkers. Annoying (and unwanted) co-op sidekicks, painful reimaginings of fan favorites from generations past,MERLENDERL— the list goes on.
The object of my personal disaffection had to be Carver fromDead Space 3. The simpleadditionof an optional co-op character to one of my favorite horror series didn’t turn out to be the harbinger I had worried it would be, but thedesignof said character couldn’t have been much worse if they actively tried. Loud, brash, and full of the same grating military-FPS bravado I play games likeDead Spacetoavoid, I cringed every time Carver popped up on screen and the game didn’t let me put a Plasma Cutter shot through his one good eye.
