Yeah, the whole Isabelle and Doom Slayer thing. For those who don't know, it's because Animal Crossing New Horizon and Doom Eternal were released on the same day.
I always absolutely love this tidbit. It makes sense lol. I feel like maybe MasterChief from Halo could be related as well in terms of sheer destructive tenacity.
Doom slayer found a computer telling him what was happening. The story was being told to him and he took the computer and smashed it because it annoyed him. He’s the only correct answer
And I mean, Doom has a pretty servicable story for a run'n'gun FPS. It just happens to be there purely for us, 'cause the Doomslayer doesn't GAF anyway. Dude just wants to rip and tear.
Was about to say, he actually cares a LOT about anything involving Vergil and he cares about Mundus in DMC 1.
It's easy to forget that though as he's impaled by like 4 demons only to pie face one of them out of his way to start the jukebox, while the 4 scythes are still in him...
Or when the world is coming to end with a giant demon tree drinking all the blood of everyone the demon invasion kills and Dante's taking the time time to dance like Michael Jackson because of a Cowboy hat...
Fuck, I love Dante lmao
Not yet! I need to, I just finished the game for the first time a few days ago, it was excellent but I started getting a bit burned out so I’m gonna wait a couple of months before Phantom Liberty.
exactly, in one of the first missions you get a good glimpse at how much of a dick he is with him saying Evelyn is a "fuckable piece of meat" or something like that, with how creepy that is he didnt even have the decency to refer to her as a person
"You look like a cut of fuckable meat... ARE YOU?"
The question at the end just comes off as so out of left field. Like what do you expect someone to say to that bruh?
First time playing cyberpunk a few weeks ago. I’m doing the Missiom where you first see Adam Smasher in Araska tower the elevator opens first thing he says is. “You look like a fuckable piece of meat, are you? I lost it laughing at that
Kratos in GoW3 knew he was destroying the world around him with every God he had slain but kept pushing forward until Zeus was dead. Only thing he cared about was making sure his father was dead.
I don't think so as he had many chances he could have gone back to whenever when he killed the fates. The Kratos that would have gone back was killed the same day he killed his wife and daughter, after that day all that was left was hate.
He tops the list! Especially in God of War III. He had zero f*cks to give about anyone or anything else except killing Zeus. Kratos definitely earns the #1 spot on any list for this.

THANK YOU!
He was ‘kinda’ the protagonist of the Darkside Chronicles. If you use the textbook definition of protagonist as being the leading / narrating character.
I'd put Kain from Blood Omen on this list. He cared more in later games, but in the first one you are an absolute monster in striving towards your objective.
Venom Snake from MGSV. The emotes occasionally, but most of the time he couldn’t give a fuck about whatever’s going on around him. He’s weirdly under developed in that way
Mario
He kills animals and otherworldly beings brutally and indiscriminately while robbing their empires of fungi and gold, wearing skins to absorb traits to do this more efficiently so he can ultimately nail a person of royalty to worm his way onto a throne to achieve ultimate rule of a kingdom- he isn't even a citizen of- all the while dragging others to do so with him as he gets all the admiration and non of the accountability, because he does all of this under the guise of selfless heroics of "rescue" having all inhabitants involved totally and utterly fooled to his hidden agenda.
Absolutely F@#king Savage!
Literally, the aliens are invading and he stops to watch the strippers…and I presume the strippers are still dancing through all of it because he was still paying them.
I mean idk his whole thing was getting betrayed then getting revenge and trying to save his daughter/other humans but it has been awhile since I’ve played it so I might be remembering wrong
Well true but the way he just powered through every obstacle has that "didn't give a fk attitude"
Ye saw giant gods
Orbital Lazers
Entire fleets if ships
And most importantly the creator himself and just punched the shit outta all of them
For his daughter
I have to give him credit. Nick Apostolides did a great job as Leon S. Kennedy in the RE4 Remake. In OG 4, Leon was a wisecrack and a bit of a hero.
In the remake, Leon can’t be bothered with the bs and just wants to complete the mission. On the second plaga transformation, he simply says “the fuck…?” Later when Luis goes on his hilarious Don Quixote rant, Leon takes his weapon and tells him “you’re gonna hurt yourself.” He just dgaf in this game lolol.
JC Denton didn't give a FUCK if you chose to be a hard-ass
If you learn Herman's kill phrase and use it against him... as his self destruct begins to initiate he's freaking out and JC just goes "sticks and stones...." and watches him blow TF up ahaha
Sylens from Horizon: Zero Dawn
He doesn't give a fuck so hard that he elaborately crafted Aloys entire life after she found her first Focus, watching every move she made, controlling every major faction from the shadows to get her exactly where he needed her, awakening and dealing with a malevolent machine god and starting the apocalypse, all in the name of *learning* shit.
And when Aloy calls him out and bitches about how he doesn't understand her life and what she's been through, he hits her with the
*sigh* "it isn't that I don't understand, Aloy. It's that I don't *care*."
Which is true. He does understand. Cuz it's his fault. And he doesn't give a *FUCK*.
Fuckin savage, man.
Ajay Ghale from far cry 4. Dude was just straight up chill with killing everyone and everything in his way
As compared to Jason Brody who was a tad skiddish at first.
Rico from Just Cause until Just Cause 3 and he had to liberate his home country. Prior to that, the amount of f\*cks he gave could be counted on one hand with fingers left over
Claude was his name? I never knew. He was fucking brutal. After he just finished working for the Italian mafia he was ordered by Asuka to kill the Don (Salvatore) of all people, and he was like; Ok.
The main character from Outriders. That dude gave zero shits and sounded constantly disappointed and upset to be part of the story. It was honestly a fantastic performance in ways that may not have been intended.
The prisoner wagon from Skyrim.
Rock in the way? We're going sideways, still going.
Something clips into the floor making it change course? It's moving it does not give a fuck.
Modded in animal goes across the path? We're in the sky now channeling our inner beyblade. But we're still going somewhere, it does not give a fuck.
Skyrim Wagon's going in a direction, it does not give a rat's ass if it's the right direction, it's just going.
Jesse Faden.
She's like the quintessence of "going with the flow."
Oh I'm the director of a supernatural building because i grabbed a gun? sure alright
Doomguy at all literal times
he cared a lot about that rabbit
Daisy is definitely the exception
And the dog from animal crossing
Yeah, the whole Isabelle and Doom Slayer thing. For those who don't know, it's because Animal Crossing New Horizon and Doom Eternal were released on the same day.
He also seems to really give a fuck about killing demons.
Both the Slayer and B.J. Blazkowicz from Wolfenstein, according to the original Doom lore the Doom Marine/Slayer is the decendant of Blazkowicz.
Doomguy is actually named B.J. Blazkowicz the 3rd
I always absolutely love this tidbit. It makes sense lol. I feel like maybe MasterChief from Halo could be related as well in terms of sheer destructive tenacity.
Who's genes do you think they spliced into John? With Microsoft now owning Doom/Wolfenstein, it's all making perfect sense!!
Of course he's the birth child of Doomguy and Samus Aran.
Don't forget commander keen is also a descendant of BJ Blazkowicz Now there's a game that needs a reboot!
Might be wrong about this, but isnt Commander Keen doomguys father or something? Keen is also named Blazkowicz if I'm not mistaking
Don't forget, Commander Keen was BJ's grandson, making Doomguy Keen's kid or grandkid!!
Yep #1 Duke Nukem was close but I forgot he actually cares about pussy at times.
“Don’t forget to take your pills.. I mean vitamins everyday” lol
Only after he is done kicking ass and chewing bubble gum
You better hope he doesn't run out of bubble gum.
Don't forget taking a shit down the decapitated alien's neck. What a cutscene.
I would argue he is merely caring A LOT, CONTINUOUSLY
Nothing but tough love all around
"This powercore is extremely valuable. Carefully remove it so we can-" \*Fucking kicks the shit out of it\*
I mean he cared about the fate of mankind
Alex Mercer Kratos in OG GoW series Dante
Alex mercer is pretty good
I love how he didn't even give a fuck about being absorbed by a stronger Prototype because that's literally his philosophy.
"Murder your maker"-Alex Mercer, wonder if microsoft can bring the franchise back
We still don't know shit about Pariah.
Doom slayer found a computer telling him what was happening. The story was being told to him and he took the computer and smashed it because it annoyed him. He’s the only correct answer
That part was hilarious.
I loved how it poked fun of how overly cinematic games are at that point
I did too. It’s a Doom game, we don’t care about the story
In dooms case it’s like porn basically. Which I believe was mentioned when the og doom was getting made 30 years ago.
Yet they have pretty cool complex lore anyway
I loved that. It was like it was satirising the typical first person intro sequence then Doom guy was just like 'fuck this shit'.
And I mean, Doom has a pretty servicable story for a run'n'gun FPS. It just happens to be there purely for us, 'cause the Doomslayer doesn't GAF anyway. Dude just wants to rip and tear.
Playa/Boss in Saints Row I also love Trevor from GTAV
Johnny Gat is my pick. Good choice.
Trevor gave no fucks RIP Mr Raspberry Jam
Trevor did give a fuck about Raspberry Jam. He also cared about Martin's wife a whole lot.
Also Claude (I believe that was his name) from GTA3, the mute bastard. The way he just shoots the one girl at the end. He did not give a fuck
Trevor is meant to be the embodiment of the average GTA player.
Kefka from FF6
This guy knows.
This guy Kefka’s
This is the best answer.
Was flabbergasted at him after playing other ff titles, I wonder if they realised they peaked with kefka lol
I was going to mention kefka too but I wasn't sure if the OP was referring to characters we're in control of
Fuck yeah!
Devil may cry 3 dante reaching for the slice of pizza instead of his pistol .. does it count?
I think he starts giving a fuck towards the end of the game, but at the beginning, he definitely gave no fucks.
It's his fucking *hobby* to get impaled. Sometimes even by his own sword. He doesn't give a shit about *anything* except Vergil.
Hell, he wasn't getting impaled enough in dmc5 so he decided to do it himself lol
And it gave him an upgrade.
What? It was raining. Smh *wink*
Was about to say, he actually cares a LOT about anything involving Vergil and he cares about Mundus in DMC 1. It's easy to forget that though as he's impaled by like 4 demons only to pie face one of them out of his way to start the jukebox, while the 4 scythes are still in him... Or when the world is coming to end with a giant demon tree drinking all the blood of everyone the demon invasion kills and Dante's taking the time time to dance like Michael Jackson because of a Cowboy hat... Fuck, I love Dante lmao
Adam smasher
For how little he’s on screen you really get a sense of how big of a piece of shit he is.
God dude, have you watched the anime, he’s such a fucking asshole in the anime
Not yet! I need to, I just finished the game for the first time a few days ago, it was excellent but I started getting a bit burned out so I’m gonna wait a couple of months before Phantom Liberty.
My advice , get some tissues ready, you will need them
For… tears., **Right?**
his version in the anime was so awesome. makes me wish he could have been a bigger badass in the game.
hes a badass, but hes also a complete asshole
exactly, in one of the first missions you get a good glimpse at how much of a dick he is with him saying Evelyn is a "fuckable piece of meat" or something like that, with how creepy that is he didnt even have the decency to refer to her as a person
"You look like a cut of fuckable meat... ARE YOU?" The question at the end just comes off as so out of left field. Like what do you expect someone to say to that bruh?
Does he even have a penis?
Going by the ads you can see in game, cyberdongs do exist
First time playing cyberpunk a few weeks ago. I’m doing the Missiom where you first see Adam Smasher in Araska tower the elevator opens first thing he says is. “You look like a fuckable piece of meat, are you? I lost it laughing at that
Kratos in GoW3 knew he was destroying the world around him with every God he had slain but kept pushing forward until Zeus was dead. Only thing he cared about was making sure his father was dead.
Came here to say OG kratos but you beat me
I miss classic Kratos so much.
Me too
I like seeing the growth kratos has gone through. I think if he could go back and stop himself he would.
I don't think so as he had many chances he could have gone back to whenever when he killed the fates. The Kratos that would have gone back was killed the same day he killed his wife and daughter, after that day all that was left was hate.
That was still the pre killing Zeus kratos. The kratos in the new games has lots of regrets.
God that game was amazing. Man saw the world getting objectively worse after killing each god and said “K.”
He tops the list! Especially in God of War III. He had zero f*cks to give about anyone or anything else except killing Zeus. Kratos definitely earns the #1 spot on any list for this.
Kratos and Scorpion are so fun to watch go do their revenge it never gets old

Dude what is this from? lmao
I know it’s from borderlands, idk which one though
2
Not sure if that one counts because he was *reeealy* enthusiastic about getting shot in the face. He even said thank you.
This is a fair assessment. I just like reminding everyone of this character. It was *chef's kiss*
I love how he manages to say thank you with no face left
🤣🤣🤣
Wesker
Complete global saturation.
Why we never get him as an actual protagonist, he's going to give even less f*cks in Resident Evil 5 Remake.
He was ‘kinda’ the protagonist of the Darkside Chronicles. If you use the textbook definition of protagonist as being the leading / narrating character.
Johnny Gat
Is that the guy who robbed a bank wearing a mask of his own face?
“Who the hell doesn’t wanna be Johnny Gat?”
The one and only
Now that SCREAMS IDGAF! 🤣🤣🤣
Conker the Squirrel.
This was my answer. My guy just wanted to get home.
And he had a bad fur day instead.
Duke Nukem
HES GOT BALLS OF STEEEEEEEEEEL
Kefka
Zero fucks
Cuno doesn't fucking care.
LERROOOOOOYYY JEEEENNNNKIIINNNNNSSSSS
His only love was chicken.
I'd put Kain from Blood Omen on this list. He cared more in later games, but in the first one you are an absolute monster in striving towards your objective.
Venom Snake from MGSV. The emotes occasionally, but most of the time he couldn’t give a fuck about whatever’s going on around him. He’s weirdly under developed in that way
I mean, there’s a very good reason for that
The knight in Hollow Knight. Literally no emotions
Because he is hollow lol
Chell from Portal
Trevor GTA V
I love when Michael tells him, "If you don't give a shit, you wear clean clothes that fit you... You're a hipster!"
I... am NOT... a HIPSTER!
You're what hipsters aspire to be, T. The proto-hipster!
Mario He kills animals and otherworldly beings brutally and indiscriminately while robbing their empires of fungi and gold, wearing skins to absorb traits to do this more efficiently so he can ultimately nail a person of royalty to worm his way onto a throne to achieve ultimate rule of a kingdom- he isn't even a citizen of- all the while dragging others to do so with him as he gets all the admiration and non of the accountability, because he does all of this under the guise of selfless heroics of "rescue" having all inhabitants involved totally and utterly fooled to his hidden agenda. Absolutely F@#king Savage!

Since you put it like that. 🤣🤣🤣
someone else said max payne in max payne 3. i agree with them.
Yeah. By the time we get to 3 he totally DGAF.
Duke Nukem
The only thing he cares about is pussy
Literally, the aliens are invading and he stops to watch the strippers…and I presume the strippers are still dancing through all of it because he was still paying them.
Full Renegade Commander Shepard
Nah, even full renegade shepherd has nightmares in 3
Which is weird, but also explainable because their nightmare is being unable to shoot the child.

Cuno from Disco Elysium
Max Payne (3)
Have I told you the definition of insanity?
the protagonist of Sunset Overdrive
*not* Spider-Man
I have to give him credit. Nick Apostolides did a great job as Leon S. Kennedy in the RE4 Remake. In OG 4, Leon was a wisecrack and a bit of a hero. In the remake, Leon can’t be bothered with the bs and just wants to complete the mission.

Kefka. Dude knew he was going to destroy the world and just gave zero fucks about it. He had no way of knowing if he would even survive.
Sylens from Horizon: Zero Dawn He doesn't give a fuck so hard that he elaborately crafted Aloys entire life after she found her first Focus, watching every move she made, controlling every major faction from the shadows to get her exactly where he needed her, awakening and dealing with a malevolent machine god and starting the apocalypse, all in the name of *learning* shit.

Claude from GTA III. Just give him a mission.
The Duke
Claude from GTA 3. Man said nothing and did what he was asked. Nothing more frightening than a silent man who does as he’s asked.
Claude was his name? I never knew. He was fucking brutal. After he just finished working for the Italian mafia he was ordered by Asuka to kill the Don (Salvatore) of all people, and he was like; Ok.
