Post a game character that basically received immediate BACKLASH

Dante from DmC Devil May Cry.

Oh excuse me- "Donte".
Yeah, he has black hair and swears a lot. Your point?

The amount of hate he gets almost four years after the game's release is astonishing, really.

The "hardcore" Devil May Cry fans just l’amour to hate him.

Raiden from Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty

Ratchet got hit with this during the original Ratchet and Clank for being a huge jerk to Clank and not caring about the lives Lost due to the actions of Chairman Drek.
It's a good thing Insomniac Games caught onto this issue and rewritten his character and changed his voice starting with Going Commando and kept it that way for every game after that(this change applied to the 2016 re-imagining too).

Why the hate? She's cute lmao. Peeps needa chill.

James Heller from Prototype 2 got a lot of hate from Prototype fans for being 'no Alex Mercer' and practically a walking aggressive cheeseball with his lines :v
I think he's gr8 lmao.

The Catalyst from Mass Effect 3.

Not to mention poor little Popplio. :P
