Who's more annoying?



Both are annoying and won't go away. Normally when you have to listen to some dumb person talking in OoT, you can just press B to skip through to the end. You can do this MOST of the time with Kaepora Gaebora, but I don't think you can ever do it when Navi's explaining everything to you. And while it is annoying that Kaepora Gaebora has "Yes" as the default answer to "HOO HOO! DO YOU WANT ME TO REPEAT ALL THAT ****?", at least you only have to deal with him about half a dozen times. Navi follows you around all game, and while you don't have to listen to her long, winding explanations of the game's mechanics after about the time you become an adult, you still have to hear "HEY!" every five minutes. They both suck, but I have to say Navi's more annoying.

What's your opinion?

Navi really never bothered me. That damn owl, on the other hand...

KG. Navi stayed in one game total(despite having some new versions of her pop up), but Kaepora decided to appear in multiple games, making him more of a pain in the ear.

The Owl goes away forever. Navi does not.

Navi is also perma-mapped to up-c, which is annoying and a waste of a button.

I hate the owl more, for some reason. May be it's head.

I liked the owl in Link's Awakening. He was kind of riddle-like. The statues were a better hint mechanism, too, and didn't immediately interrupt your game.

Kaepora Gaebora, if for only one reason:

With Navi's spiels, I can just press A until she shuts up; but as pointed out for mister owlie here, 'yes I want you to repeat this crap over again' is the default answer so I listen to his garbage for about FIVE FREAKIN' TIMES before I finally hit the 'stfu' option. :{/

As annoying as it is to hear "HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN" about 50 times, it's more annoying to have to scroll through the owl....50 times....on Zora's River (I have to get ALL the Magic Beans before opening the Zora's Domain, and that requires many, many trips and listening to that god forsaken owl without being allowed to fast forward through it). -CSM

I'd have to say Kaepora Gaebora.
I found Navi to be kinda cute for some reason, to be honest. Then again, I didn't mind the owl all that much, either, since I took his appearances to be a sign that I was progressing in the game.

^ Aaaaand thusly your OoT experience was 100 times greater than the rest of ours. x{D

As much as I love this game [which is a freaking lot, by the way], some of the I R HEER 2 GAID U characters need to STFU and GTFO. Just a little.

I find KG to be more annoying. With Navi, you can either take 2 seconds to see what she has to say or just ignore her. But KG will stop you and force you into a conversation that takes HOURS (give or take).

I never had to deal with Navi all that much, and her shouting at me didn't bother me. However, her un-turn-off-able hints were extremely annoying, a lot more annoying than anybody ever really mentions about her.

But I have to go with Kaepora on this one (granted we're talking about OoT here), just because of all the bad memories of hitting A rapidly through his dialogue, then accidentally answering "yes" to "Do you want me to repeat this?", and then shouting in agony.
