History MostAnnoyingSound / RolePlayingGames

* The battle voices in the UsefulNotes/PlayStation ''VideoGame/{{Lunar}}'' remakes are based on the classes of moves the character uses. So every time the healer uses any healing spell, she yells, "Althena! Lend me your power!" Each time the lightening mage does the one thing he's good for: "Check THIS out!" And woe betide you if an enemy has a battle clip, it'll be "TIME! TO! DIE!" ''twice'' every turn.
* SNES RPG 7th Saga gave you a choice of apprentices to team up. One of the more attractive options was [[MechanicalLifeforms ancient android LUX TIZER]] who had high defense, high attack, high magic ability and even decent speed. The major drawback? [[CriticalAnnoyance CLANKCLANKCLANKCLANKCLANKCLANK.]] He was the [[DumpStat only one]] to have (extremely loud) footsteps ([[HellIsThatNoise loud enough to drown out the music]]). Adding insult to injury? You also get the typing noise from the text box whenever [[NoIndoorVoice LUX IS TALKING]] (though to be fair, everyone gets that ''bonus'').

* "JAG KAN INTE ANVÄNDA DEN MAGIN JUST NU!" from the localized Swedish [=PS1=] version of ''VideoGame/{{Diablo}}''. It may possibly be spoken by Creator/BrianBlessed.
* The ''VideoGame/DiabloI'' multiplayer games the occasional sound spam made with the numeric pad. "Die!" "Time to die!" "Sorry." "Run!"

** The Nopon's "MEH MEH MEH!" VerbalTic can get grating by itself... and then there's Tora, who spouts it off ''constantly'' in battle. At least he has a few different ways he says it. But it can get ''extremely'' grating on [[HarderThanHard Bringer of Chaos]] difficulty where an AI-controlled Tora will [[ArtificialStupidity run around doing nothing]] instead of the combos you want him to do, all while screaming "Meh-meh!" in some way and leaving the {{Bonus Boss}}es a generous window to OneHitKO you.

** [[BonusBoss Margaret]] yells "No!" every time she's hit, which can be multiple times for a single attack. Compare the fourth game, in which she only says this upon being defeated.

** [[BonusBoss Panthera Cantus]] brings us "GRAHH! GRAHH! HYAAA! DON'T LET LIMITS SLOW YOU! GRAHH! GRAHH! [[HaveANiceDeath OPEN UP YOUR WORLD!]]"

** After a certain point in the same game, enemies will run away from you rather than attack you. Cool. They run away with an absolutely horrible screeching sound. Not cool. And if you're hunting a specific enemy (like the game's MetalSlimes) in an area where ''everything'' runs away from you, ''mute the goddamn TV''.

* ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'' has, fittingly enough, the monsters' [[MakeMeWannaShout roars]], which render you immobile for the duration of the roar. Some monsters, if the RNG is spiteful enough, will roar ''twice in a row.'' Tigrex's roar is notable in that it can ''damage'' you.

* Invoked when [[Music/TobyFox Radiation]] said he wanted to make a Game Over "embarrassing" by making the Game Over screen in ''VideoGame/TheHalloweenHack'' really annoying.

** Any time you use the Fixer, a [[HellIsThatNoise sound effect disturbingly similar to being hit by a large glob of poisonous slime]] will periodically play at TWICE THE VOLUME OF EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE GAME. "Oh shit, did I just get hit by a fucking Cazador or something- oh wait, never mind, that's just the game trying to punish me for [[HealThyself healing myself]].

** The Low Health noise [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap has been]] [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic remixed]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHItAqaW_EA for the fifth generation.]] Unfortunately, it became this trope again once your Pokémon's HP goes down low enough and the low health music interrupts the epic music played during more important battles in the game (such as against N, Ghetsis, Colress or any Plasma grunt (especially in Black and White 2).
*** Fortunately, it stops after a few notes in Gen VI and the battle music doesn't change.

*** In the ''Overlord'' DLC you are tasked with stopping a [[AIIsACrapshoot rogue VI-human hybrid]] from uploading itself onto the Extranet and causing a technological apocalypse. Sounds simple right? It is, but every once in a while you'll be walking down a corridor and [[JumpScare all of a sudden the VI will rather loudly announce itself]] with a horrific, distorted scream that can most generously be described as the scream from [[{{Creepypasta}} suicidemouse.avi]] run through a tripod from ''Film/WarOfTheWorlds''. ''Especially'' bad if you're using headphones and have the volume cranked up.

* ''VideoGame/RadiantHistoria'': When the game got a 3DS upgrade, part of that upgrade involved the addition of voice acting and mroe sound effects. The problem this also added in the sound effect of all the "Goblin" enemies in the game. Wheather catching their attention on the field or their attacks in battle, their cries are all this distorted, loudly pitched noise that sounds more like a corrupted sound file than anything naturally made.

* The English dub of ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'' features this with ThatOneBoss, Disciple [[spoiler:Lorithia]]. As if this boss isn't irritating enough to be That One Boss without it, to add insult to injury, she keeps repeating, over and over again…"You'll pay for your insolence! You'll pay for your insolence! You'll pay for your insolence!"

* ''VideoGame/PokemonBattleRevolution'''s announcer[[note]]Creator/KenGates from Anime/PokemonTheSeries reprising his role[[/note]] is hated by all and loved by none. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEr9GWMyIBs "Wow, giant Pokémon sure make this colosseum look tiny!"]] "'''''It's super effective!!'''''". "Taken out ''already''." Will he ever stop talking after every decision or attack?

* ''VideoGame/PokemonBattleRevolution'''s announcer is hated by all and loved by none.

Will he ever stop talking after every decision or attack?

* ''VideoGame/{{EarthBound}}'':

* If the PC won the race [[spoiler: instead of killing Claire's supposed murderer]] in ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'' everytime V enters the Afterlife bar, Claire as the bartender will practically scream at them that she won't sell them drinks and they can leave, even if the PC is there to see her boss. It can quickly get on your nerves especially because she'll yell at you when you're both entering and leaving the bar and there's no other entrances or exits to avoid her. It made this troper even more glad [[spoiler: he won the race just out of spite.]] It's a shame because it soured a likeable character through no fault of her own.

* ''VideoGame/GenshinImpact'': In very cold environments, a Sheer Cold gauge appears. When running out of time on the gauge, a beeping sound plays indicating that the player should find a heat source. The sound gets annoying fast.

* The English dub of ''VideoGame/{{Xenoblade}}'' features this with ThatOneBoss, Disciple [[spoiler:Lorithia]]. As if this boss isn't irritating enough to be That One Boss without it, to add insult to injury, she keeps repeating, over and over again…"You'll pay for your insolence! You'll pay for your insolence! You'll pay for your insolence!"

* Those three damned klaxons and the "Emergency" message in ''VideoGame/{{Miitopia}}''. One of your teammates is getting sick out of nowhere and you’ve no way of preventing it, ever.

** '''[[MemeticMutation DON'T FORGET ME! THINK YOU CAN TAKE ME!?]]'''[[note]] Recently been patched out to make it less annoying

** The Nopon's "MEH MEH MEH!" VerbalTic can get grating by itself... and then there's Tora, who spouts it off ''constantly'' in battle. At least he has a few different ways he says it.

--> '''[[spoiler: Yuuko]]''': I always hated the stupid way you talked. The fakeness of it? The attempts to sound younger? You were ugly and pathetic, in all honesty.

** The enemy krogan rasping '''"Watch out!"''' throughout the fight: irritating. ''Three'' enemy krogan rasping it through the whole fight: most annoying sound. Well, most annoying after female human/asari enemies constantly screaming "I WILL DESTROY YOU!" Which was promptly given to Jack in the sequel, where it's just as annoying.
** From the sequel, '''"One less to worry about!"''' Thank you, [[spoiler:Garrus]], [[SarcasmMode that was very helpful]].
** Asari Eclipse Vanguards spamming Warp. "WEAKENING THEIR INTEGRITY!" "DEPLOYING WARP FIELD!" "MIND OVER MATTER!"
** In the ''Overlord'' DLC you are tasked with stopping a [[AIIsACrapshoot rogue VI-human hybrid]] from uploading itself onto the Extranet and causing a technological apocalypse. Sounds simple right? It is, but every once in a while you'll be walking down a corridor and [[JumpScare all of a sudden the VI will rather loudly announce itself]] with a horrific, distorted scream that can most generously be described as the scream from [[{{Creepypasta}} suicidemouse.avi]] run through a tripod from ''Film/WarOfTheWorlds''. ''Especially'' bad if you're using headphones and have the volume cranked up.
** Also from the sequel, ''every single thing Harbinger says.'' "WE ARE YOUR GENETIC DESTINY THIS HURTS YOU IF I MUST TEAR YOU APART SHEPARD I WILL YOU WILL KNOW PAIN SHEPARD," e.t.c. and so forth. And if that wasn't bad enough, on higher difficulties he does it ''more.'' As in, every three seconds. It's nightmarish.
** It's egregiously nightmarish when you realize that it sounds like [[NightmareFetishist Pinhead]] from Hellraiser.
** The excuses your allies give you when they don't have time to talk. If you're the kind of player who wants to know all about your crew, expect to hear a lot of "Can it wait for a bit? I'm in the middle of some calibrations", "There's a lot to do, Shepard", and "We are forming a consensus", among others.
** Captain Ahern from the Pinnacle Station DLC likes to provide color commentary. Oh ''God''. "There's no award for ''most times shot!''" "Come on, Shepard, that medi-gel ain't free!" "''Ooh!'' They're gonna feel ''that'' one tomorrow!"

** When you pick up research/tech in ''VideoGame/MassEffect2'', Shepard will exclaim "This looks useful" or "I can use this!". It's usually not annoying, but when you get upgrades right after a climactic cutscene, it throws off the immersion ("Come on, Tali'Zorah vas Normandy, let's get back to the ship." "Yes... Captain." "WE CAN USE THIS!"). Also, for whatever reason, whenever [=FemShep=] says it, it's incredibly loud compared to all the other sound effects.
** When scanning star systems in ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'', you need to be careful not to attract any Reapers by using it too much, because they will attack the Normandy and '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZZvRHWLvjo#t=55s HHHOOOOOOOOOONNKK!!!!!!]]'''
** In the Peak 15 mission on Noveria, you have to get the main power back on and fix the tram lines. The resident VI will [[AnnoyingVideoGameHelper oh so helpfully]] remind you of this....over and over again until it's done. At roughly the same decibel level as a tornado siren. Gets infuriating after about the second repetition.
** The alarms on the Hammerhead in the Firewalker and Overlord {{DLC}}s in ''2''. Whenever the Hammerhead takes significant damage, it starts playing a fairly irritating alarm. Because the Hammerhead [[GlassCannon is armoured with old shoeboxes layered over bubble wrap]], you will hear it a lot, especially in the Geth-focused mission (which is thoughtfully ''not'' the one labelled "Geth Incursion") and the Overlord DLC.

** The Nopon's "MEH MEH MEH!" VerbalTic can get grating by itself... and then there's Tora, who spouts it off ''constantly'' in battle, in a variety of pitches. You'll get sick of it, fast.
