7 Companion Characters With No Sense of Self-Preservation

We spend so much time as a solo hero, never letting anyone close because it could mean getting them killed. Then a buddy character is foisted on us for story reasons and getting them killed becomes a real possibility. Recall these 7 oblivious companions and subscribe: www.tinyurl.com/SubToOxbox
Among the biggest liabilities are the infamously reckless Natalya of GoldenEye fame, Resident Evil's permanently kidnapped Ashley Graham, GTA Vice City bullet magnet Lance Vance and Amy, the titular zombie bait of survival horror Amy.

[@restinpeas1284]

Ashley Graham may suck, but she does have SOME sense of self preservation. If you aim at her, she'll duck to get out of the line of fire. Tell her to hide, she'll do just that, and when you play as her during a brief segment, you can actually fight off enemies by throwing lamps at them. She also spots a boulder for you that you can use to knock onto one of the el gigante's heads. Gets herself kidnapped a lot but she DOES have some level of competence.

[@Casteverus]

Also the knight's armor you can unlock for her after beating the game a few times is fantastic, she can't get carried off anymore, and any enemy that tries just falls over helplessly

[@restinpeas1284]

Casteverus Well yeah, but that armor's not canon :u

[@JThom529]

Yeah, and keep in mind that she's just a civilian whos daddy happens to be president

[@TrickyTalon23]

THANK YOU

[@tyranniccubone8259]

She doesn't even belong on this list frankly, I've seen plenty of escort characters who tried to defend themselves and were worse for it because they actually just made me have to jump in and very carefully and quickly kill everyone around them before they were killed in retaliation, sometimes not fighting and just being a distraction like Ashley is, is more helpful.

[@thisisnotmyid_]

Ahh I see Ashley didn't go to the Prometheus school of running away from things Minus one sin But add two because it's Ashley

[@vinceaskins9372]

ding

[@bari2799]

+vinCentral- Destiny ding

[@patrickharrison6293]

Verdict: getting carried away by a evil priest.

[@flynnthorington]

+vinCentral- Destiny TWO SINS. You need 2 DINGS.

[@Fanimati0n]

+ThisIsNotMyID withJaveable which one. The "move slightly to the side and not get crushed" one? or the "watch your friend escape death by jogging slightly to the left, but continue running in straight line, like a total fucking moron" one?

[@jesseclark7105]

Actually, the sniper mission that involves defending an oblivious fat guy looks like a lot of fun. It reminds me of Skyrim, when you shoot people with arrows and hide from them. "What was that?...Must have been the wind."

[@TheRupertLitterbin]

Hmm, there's a stick in my butt, must be a sign from the divines to keep my patrol pattern...

[@BrandonWillWin]

It reminds me a lot defending Earnest from the jocks with your slingshot while he's giving his class president campaign speech in Bully.

[@KyleKatarnBanthaHerder]

+Jesse Clark It is actually rather fun. The entire game is pretty fantastic. Helps too that you can choose to make it easier for yourself as well before the mission starts, by agreeing to your boss' offer to call out where the snipers are coming from, so you won't miss them.

[@Cyfiero]

They should've mentioned that *spoiler alert* He gets killed anyways immediately after the mission. 🤣

[@Galaxy58Q]

I forgot the name of the Resident Evil 4 protagonist. "Leon!" What was his name? "Leon! Leon!" Oh, right. Thanks Ashley.

[@khalel610]

thank god for Elizabeth (Bioshock) and Ellie (TLOU) for being the total opposites of these video game companions.

[@thomashenry4588]

+Yasha Uh, Ellie's AI was freaking awful.

[@DarknessXER]

+Thomas Henry She is invisible as long as you are not visible as well. Yup

[@juanmartin6710]

Ellie is invisible to the enemies and she doesn't help you.

[@MildMisanthropeMaybeMassive]

Juan Martín If you are grappled she will stab the enemy and you are spotted she will throw a brick at the enemy. If a gunfight breaks out she will shoot. But she does all these things rarely to increase the difficulty and it may be that the higher the difficulty setting, the less likely AI companions will intervene.

[@nickcabrera3087]

"More snipers then a call of duty deathmatch" HAHAHAHA xD

[@chungojungo7743]

+Nick Cabrera That was a nice point

[@hummer_1041]

More like more snipers than sniper elite III players.

[@chungojungo7743]

Legion See? Thats is not funny anymore becouse sniper is in the title.

[@the-kris5554]

+Nick Cabrera Or Counter-Strike :p

[@LucarioredLR]

+Nick Cabrera Than*, erh-erhm

[@DaniellikesBTD5]

1:21 Totally an accident. TOOOOOTALLY

[@radaroreilly505]

What, when did Mike become the responsible one????

[@TheRupertLitterbin]

I swear I killed Lydia in Skyrim more times than the enemies did because she blocked the path so much...

[@seanshogun1957]

TheRupertLitterbin she only can die by you

[@RedYellowBird6889]

Really it's rather hard to kill her at least for me especially when she has some good armour.

[@TrickyTalon23]

Wait she can only die once, right?

[@TheRupertLitterbin]

Luke McNamara that’s why you quicksave constantly 😅

[@shadeslayer8631]

All npc followers in skyrim fucking suck only good ones are the ones you summon and even they can suck at times

[@SHARDK2]

Elizabeth in BioShock Infinite. She doesn't need self-preservation. Her charm and likability deflects bullets.

[@Electrifyyy]

Can we all agree a lot of FPS games have awful companions but then there's Bioshock Infinite. I loved Elizabeth because she wasn't useless and that's a hard thing to find in companions

[@MercyfulAlex]

+Electrifyyy They should put top 7 best companions in games.

[@CrashSable]

It's not hard to make a companion not useless, you just make it so they're magically and unrealistically unaffected by all the combat happening around them. Then hope that there are enough hypocrite consumers who will call it a good system while bashing other games with exactly the same system.

[@najee8242]

+CrashSable Things to make a companion good=doesn't die or doesn't feel pain, has good commentary on the side, gives the player weapons, health and/or ammo, and doesn't block you when you try to get through a door...

[@CrashSable]

Najee M and pretty much every example of a companion succeeding at all of the above is because of an immersion breaking game design. Elizabeth and Ellie are just ignored by the enemies. The "good" Skyrim companions are just considered such because they are near enough invincible. The companions in MGSV are only acknowledged by the rest of the game when you explicitly order them to interact with it somehow and spend the rest of their time as far away from you as possible without completely abandoning you etc.

[@ProfessorTurnipAlpha]

+Electrifyyy Alyx Vance from Half-Life 2 was pretty good. She would always dispose of the other zombies, combine, headcrabs, you name it, whenever I'm trying to get an achievement for lighting 15 zombies on fire. She only ever died on me once out of, I dunno, seven playthroughs.

[@Chino56751]

Here's a solution: tie them up, finish the game, then come back and get them. Problem solved.

[@icantthinkofagoodusername4464]

+Agent Washington Maybe you should try that with Caboose. Would really help lower the amount of soldiers dying due to friendly fire.

[@Chino56751]

not so much a problem with freckles as his rifle

[@icantthinkofagoodusername4464]

Agent Washington Oh, almost forgot about him. How's the homicidal AI doing?

[@Chino56751]

not so much homicidal as..trigger happy

[@toongrowner1]

+Agent Washington tried that with Ashley, did not work at all, never played the game again because of that... like really, no enemy near her, and no chance for them to reach her without noticing me... I'm just 10 seconds away from her and allready she is kidnapped.

[@empw14]

The way Andy screams "Leon!" makes me wonder whether he practices sounding like a young girl when no one is watching

[@Hobobatman1000]

Literally every Survivor in Dead Rising games. Unless you get eight at a time and arm them all with Assault Rifles and LMGs, then your multiple bags of fragile living experience points becomes an Anti-Psychopath army.

[@tobieolson242]

Yes. But I could never save them because of the damn resurrecting convicts in their piece of shit Humvee.

[@deletedelete4516]

+Tobie Olson God I fucking hate those guys so bad..

[@tobieolson242]

Christian Munguia I killed them and they magically appeared back in the fucking courtyard. What genius thought up that idea?

[@deletedelete4516]

Tobie Olson The biggest dick on the planet haha I remember I barely killed them one time felt so good about it then when I went back and they respawned it made my effort meaningless just a big kick in the nuts

[@tobieolson242]

Christian Munguia Exactly.

[@callaghan184]

not a companion, but the Druffalo from Dragon Age Inquisition that you have to herd back to its home.... damned thing moves so slow.

[@TGCommander]

+Jessica Callaghan That damn Druffalo never walked in the right direction as well.

[@christinefarrell6438]

It is, however, invincible. You can actually use her as a back up tank on that really annoying rift if you go around the back way or run past it to get to her.

[@tidings8073]

Andy's "Leon" scream is wonderful. You should find a way to include it in a clip of character impersonations made by the team.

[@ThatIrishLass]

So....Andy and Jane are dead? Bummer. All hail King Mike, though!

[@TGCommander]

Mike had to restart the mission, we might miss a few videos tough, while he's doing that.

[@CodyWelter]

Emma friggin' Emmerich from MGS2: Sons of Liberty. What's that Emma, you don't like bugs? Well this tranquilizer dart begs to differ.

[@WilliamDoheny]

I wouldn't say Ashley Graham lacked self-preservation. It's more like she was a weak teenager with no idea how to defend herself.

[@Baconomics101]

+William Doheny it's called running away. I'm pretty sure everyone should be able to do that.

[@WilliamDoheny]

+Baconomics101 Then she'd turn into a horror movie cliche by tripping in 5 feet.

[@DarkRubberDucky]

+William Doheny Heather Mason was a weak teenage girl and yet she picks up a gun and shoots a terrifying vagina creature to death. I'd pay so much money to make all escort teenage girls into Heather Mason.

[@PatientBean]

No One Lives Forever is probably one of my favorite games. Such simplicity, but yet has a nice story, nice gameplay that's challenging (somewhat) and a quirky, comic vibe. Liked the second one too. Kinda wish they had more out.

[@josephearp7180]

Hey, Jane's 'am I right, guys?' addiction seems to be getting worse with every video, am I right guys?

[@jonbaxter2254]

Can you guys do a "best" co-op characters to even things out? There is still a lot of good AI out there

[@andrewcleary9952]

[@LetSwine]

+Andrew Cleary yuss that damage tho

[@andrewsucks6180]

[@tomtalks23]

Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite, can't die and even finds ammo and money for you.

[@rickya9206]

Boone from F3.

[@alanjhonson2298]

She lists her permanent address as 'over the shoulder of a cultist' XD I love you guys

[@degiguess]

do a video on best video game companions like Elizabeth Alyx Vance Lydia Veronica Dog Meat and don't forget the beloved Companion Cube

[@TheEggplantComa]

What about Quiet from MSGV?

[@andrewcleary9952]

*BLACK* *IRON* *TARKUS* HE doesn't need YOUR help.

[@banzar1529]

+Skel “Skeletor” etor HOW IS LYDIA GOOD SHE RUNS TO ATTACK THE ENEMY WHEN YOUR TRYING TO SNEAK

[@Jamie-rh1sv]

+Skel “Skeletor” etor YASSS Dog meat!

[@BlueAx]

You have to save Jane! Andy is optional.

[@xxDrain]

No one lives forever was a brilliant game, exceeding the quality of most other shooters of that time. I am deeply saddened by the fact that it's relatively unknown.

[@rosskwolfe]

+xxDrain Heck, it exceeds the quality of most shooters today.

[@Madvillain47]

+xxDrain One of the most underrated games of all time, loved the james bound 60's style setting, gameplay and story.

[@Madvillain47]

+Amadeus Eisenberg Seeing is how Austin Powers is a parody of James Bond both comparisons make sense.

[@rosskwolfe]

+Amadeus Eisenberg Eh... You could say it takes inspiration from a lot of James Bond parodies: Matt Helm, Our Man Flint, Get Smart, or even The Man Who Knew Too Little. Parodying James Bond is hardly new to Austin Powers, It's been going on since the 60s.

[@FatalKitsune]

Quick question, though; why the hell hasn't NOLF been re-released on Steam or GOG yet? That game is awesome.

[@outsidexbox]

Licensing issues. Warner own the rights but can't be bothered to let Night Dive Studios remake it apparently. For what it's worth, if you can eBay a copy it runs just fine on Windows 10 in compatibility mode.

[@patrickharrison6293]

+outsidexbox not to bother you guys, but you're great. One of my favorite youtube channels. Great videos, consistent upload schedule, fun and like able jokes, etc. See you in future episodes an shows!

[@jonny_codphilo7809]

+Patrick Harrison ooohhh kiss ass ................. i feel the same way lol

[@patrickharrison6293]

+daniel phillipson call me kiss ass, bit yeah, it's how I feel.

[@outsidexbox]

Aw you guys!

[@DevilboyScooby]

I heard "stay out of the f-" and instantly assumed it was going to be "f***ing way" lol

[@swskitso]

the only character I remember from vice city is lance because he pissed me off so much literally the hardest missions involve protecting or saving lance

[@KingOfThePlums]

Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite was a perfect example of how do to escort characters. So there is now no excuse for characters like this. Thanks, Ken Levine!

[@SK98765]

That ending scene with you guys was what it was exactly like having to protect Krillin and Gohan in DB Xenoverse. I would lose over and over just because one of those idiots got themselves killed and ran away to where I couldn't protect them both.

[@Jedi_Spartan_38]

Where's Captain Keyes from Halo: Combat Evolved, as soon as you rescue him from the brig in the Truth and Reconciliation he runs up to the first enemy he kills to unload them with rounds from a needler... the alien weapon with ammo which explodes if enough rounds are fired at the same thing. Also he can't tell the difference between a dead body and a grenade.

[@duuuuud198]

Um Natalya, didn't anyone tell you not to stand in the way of gunfire?

[@rambojr6429]

No she missed that day in buddy training

[@Chino56751]

+duuuuud198 Maybe she thinks the bullets will go through her...

[@goawayleavemealone2880]

+Agent Washington Bullets will go through her, that doesn't mean it's going to end well..

[@Chino56751]

[@chungojungo7743]

[@RIPjkripper]

+Ronan Kennedy my controller died. I AM SORRY!!!

[@Bo0Mgameplaya]

IM SORRY I WANTED TO GET THE POINTS! :(

[@spiderjerusalem100]

Just shows that escort missions are never fun. So many times in games i've had to escort a brain dead A.I character who is actively trying to take a bullet to the head or you lose track of them only to find them running in to a wall so you have to reload a checkpoint. Gargh!!!!!

[@nikbacon8875]

Very enjoyable video, you guys are great

[@ryanbates3364]

HUGE thumbs up for bringing up No One Lives Forever! Great game no one brings up. Also, fawk that ambassador.

[@TeryonTheHuman]

I really don't think Ashley was as terrible of an AI companion as everyone makes her out to be. All you really ever had to do was keep the enemies in front of you and her behind you

[@Nate_the_Nobody]

Ashley, as dense as she was, I would still have rather had her in RE5 than Sheva, just dear god Sheva. When I'm running away from my own AI companion with more fear than the enemy NPC's, something is wrong.

[@deathtoisa]

SHEVA, SHEVA, CMON, SHEVA, SHEVA, CMON! *(7000 years pass)* "Okay Chris"

[@adaptabledisease]

You guys are amazing! Would love to see you cover PC specific titles as well!

[@DoubleScarlet]

Having only just discovered this channel, I'm worried there aren't enough hours in the day to watch all the videos!

[@hudesko5397]

What is everyone's beef with Ashley? Buring my first playthrough of Resident Evil 4 Ashley got carried away resulting game over only twice and both times I blamed for myself getting careless. She always stays behind Leon when shooting and even crouches if Leon is aiming to her direction. Plus you can hide her to the trash bins and make her wait in a safe distance. Are people just ignoring these commands entirely?

[@theboojahideen3551]

+Hudesko Literally 10 seconds after first finding Ashley, i turn to knife a barrel and she runs into it and dies instantly.

[@synthraofficial5366]

+Logan Grimnar I know your pain. Let my friend play RE4 for 10 minuets and she shot Ashley out of irritation, messing up my perfect no death game...

[@TheNemesis432]

+Hudesko Atleast Ashley AI is much better than Sheva. As one great reviewer compared them: "ASHLEY DUCK! (Ashley ducking) NOW SHEVA DUCK! (blam)"

Where was Lydia in this list?

The funniest part (in my opinion) is at 4:36 when Jane says "F**kin' Amy." Jane, you and the guys are 103.25901 percent AWESOME! Please keep up the great work.

[@Mich384]

Based on your recent Syndicate video it looks like Henry Green might turn out to be a good runner-up XD I expect to love him, but his headlong running into danger (and carriages) was pretty hilarious.

[@amyschildgamerlive4519]

Sounds like it went amazingly actually.

[@MrErnieDevlin]

This is probably the first, recent N.O.L.F related video that I have seen in quite some time. Although the whole mission was a joke, I want to say, thank you for including it. Hopefully, this game license is released from copyright limbo before I am an old man.

[@SebasTian58323]

Ashley ducks out of the way when you aim near her, she'll stay by your side until you tell her where to stay or hide, she operates a big old truck to destroy doors, she alerts you to a giant rock to use on an El Gigante, can reach places Leon can't, can operate switches so Leon can focus on killing the enemies, and is able to solve puzzles and kill some enemies on her segment, but she's a 20 year old woman with no self defense training, but she has plenty of self preservation, she just can't do much to defend herself from the Ganados, it's not like she grew up as the daughter of the president, at most her father was president for eight years by the time RE4 takes place, six of which were in between racoon city and when she was kidnapped by Krauser.

[@iissacc]

Most overpowered companions now?

[@natebumpus9677]

Lydia from skyrim

[@Thatoneguywhoexistsinthisworld]

Boone. He kills everything before I even get a chance to shoot.

[@ThatIrishLass]

+That one guy who exists in this world Definitely Boone, yeah. It's why I always grab him in NV.

[@Thatoneguywhoexistsinthisworld]

johnmailloux Don't get me wrong Fawkes is OP, but Boone snipes their faces before I even know they exist.

[@ThatIrishLass]

+That one guy who exists in this world Yeah, I'll be walking along, minding my own business, and suddenly I get a slow-mo sequence from Boone of some raider getting his head blown off.

[@Yceb0x]

Oh, people still mad about Ashley from Resident Evil? When will they learn? Two words: B*TCH - DUMPSTER ;)

[@ShotgunMcgoo]

wouldn't be a problem if dumpsters were around more in the game

[@gaskinforeman303]

"ahhh... Help.. Mike help... You arn't helping...."

[@BFedie518]

Ashley is actually probably the best escort quest in all of video games. She's actually a factor in gameplay (unlike The Last of Us and Bioshock Infinite), but it's impossible to accidentally shoot her (when she's not over a cultist's shoulder) because she ducks when you pull out your gun and gets behind you when she can. Also, you can put her in a bin, clear out all the baddies, then come back for her later.

[@DinoDive]

Your friend in minecraft who does not know how to play and you spend the whole sit in telling them how to do stuff and end up killing yourself because you are so board

[@ijustintime4u2bui46]

And then they get mad at you for not doing anything

[@rageoftyrael]

+Dino Dive You're doing it wrong. You just leave them to their own devices while you do all the work, lol. It allows them to figure out a lot of it on their own, and you can just answer any questions they have. Of course, if you see them doing something stupid like using a pickaxe on dirt, feel free to correct them.

[@ForeverToraDora]

Outside Xbox video? Nice way to complete the day.

[@SuperLlama42]

I never thought Ashley was that bad of an escortee. She actually has the sense to either get behind you or duck and cover when you start shooting, and most of the time when she gets grabbed it's because the level designers came up with another way to separate the two of you (though at least they eventually provide dumpsters for her to hide in until the firefight's over.)

[@neilpatrick3281]

Captain Miller from metro 2033. The man can clearly see that there are still enemies in a area but does not care and moves forward. He also must still believe in Stalin's order 66 as he never retreats when the two of you are clearly out matched.

[@ginganinja84]

That mission was a pain on hardcore mode.

[@TheRadim333]

Great stuff in this video as usual :D But i think you should do a list of all the good companions in games :D for example Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite :D and BTW you forgot Joe from Mafia 2.... that constantly-drunk idiot is somehow dying all the bloody time :D

[@avatareternal3204]

Really? Ashley in RE 4? I'd put her near if not at the very top of best video games escorts ever. Barring something like 2 instances in the game, you can have hang back somewhere safe, stick right behind you where the bullets aren't happening or just go hide in a dumpster while you murder all the things. She's even smart enough to duck when you point a weapon at her. And if that's somehow not enough in a new game+ you an put her in a suit of armor that makes her immune to all damage and too heavy for the Ganados to carry off. I never use the armor because the clanking she makes with every step would drive me loony in 5 minutes but it makes her a damn good zombie distraction for people who can somehow stand all the noise.

[@bretthurst5716]

6:36 wow even now that facial animation looks great!

[@chenry7084]

Sydney from FO3, not technically a companion, I think, but can help you in one mission, where she will die almost instantly. Of course if you want her to live you can clear out all of the supermutants and traps first by going in through the back door, but that kind of defeats the purpose.

[@Ninjat126]

I'm gonna quote Michael from Achievement Hunter here. Ashley's great. If she gets kidnapped, it's because you, the highly-trained antimonster specialist, has decided to leave the teenage girl unattended in a monster infested hellhole. Also, a bug lets her suplex cultists in that little section where she's playable.

[@Loredad13]

I've seen Lydia mentioned a couple of times so I'm throwing my 2 cents in with Sydney from Fallout 3. Sydney, ac of paper, hp of glass, Sydney. "Watch out! I've planted landmines all over this room. Here, let me run over here and show you where they are." "Oh, you're going to shoot that super mutant brute with your shotgun? Here, just let me jump in front of the barrel as you pull the trigger." "This room is full of flammable gas? Well I'll just run in there while that robot fires its laser." Effing Sydney.

[@DavidGossettMusic]

Hello outside Xbox I just got finished playing the first level of resident evil two revelations and it had way more jump scares then anything I've ever played so I really encourage you to look into that game. I swear I almost peed myself about four times.

[@Gyrbae]

I never had that problem with Natalya on my playthroughs. She was almost invincible against enemy bullets, so whenever she wandered between me and the enemy soldiers I was like "Cover me!" and side-stepped behind her to shoot them. She was like a moving shield for me. And I need to slip "undead conga-line" in to conversations more often.

The survivors in Dead Rising, the Y button has never been more used and abused in any other game. "Oh I know you're guiding me to the safe house but I want to give these zombies a french one and a hug"

Mayu from Fatal Frame/Project Zero II - loved to not only stand around and get attacked, but stand around in such a way so you couldn't actually get the ghost with your camera and save her. Not to mention the fact that the whole game is her basically running off and you having to go save her - the whole game!

#2 love how the way to prevent that is to put her in a suit of armor that makes her too heavy to lift

I nominate Emma Emmerich (MGS 2) and Eva (MGS 3) Emma was the bane of my existence with her inability to swim or walk. And that sniper part! Gah, especially trying it with the PSG 1-T... And we can't forget Eva with her inability to run, her insatiable hunger, and her proclivity toward getting caught while going prone.

I like how at the end, the objective box is a font used in Saints row and the health bars from Vice City
