3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Personally, it's Faith from Farcry 5 for me. Uninteresting dialog that can be summed up to "I was bullied once" and that's it. Literally every other character is so much more interesting. Jacob gives you a sequence where you run through a gulag which he then uses against you, John tries to kill you and is openly hateful towards you plus is a character you get to interact with, and Joseph is a lunatic who was right.

That's a tricky one, but if I had to pick, maybe Ashley from Mass Effect. She's very insubordinate and disrespectful towards you, I hate her speciesism and (fittingly enough) she's a Bible thumping Christian, whenever she opens her mouth I wish I could eject her through the airlock. It doesn't help that you can't deny her joining the team or even kick her out, safe to say that whenever I get to Virmire I always kill her without even thinking twice.

I'm replaying the Arkham series and I'd forgotten that Ashley's VA plays Oracle. I couldn't figure out why I was getting annoyed every time she called Batman until I made that connection.
