Re: Most hated ships

Well, with silent protagonists or protagonists with variant personalities, I think a lot of it is less self-insert, more, "I really like this character and want to see them be romantic because I'd find that cute (or something", with perhaps shades of "I like this character's relationship and dynamic and history".

I mean, for me, Cullen from Dragon Age: Origins is super freaking cute with the Mage Warden. I like the potential history and I like how he has a crush...but since we have so little else to go on, I don't actually 'ship' it, because what is there really to ship? Anything else adding to it ends up feeling like what you said, a self insert, even when it's not. It's just the only way people can extend a relationship with a character who doesn't have solid input on a dynamic.

I think I got off course there...
