What about the idea which at first looks pretty cool but end-up at worst not bringing anything to the game at worst being boring to play ?

Most dumb characters. Often I see them played they as intentionally disruptive, actively try to choose bad decisions, play stubborn and expect other players to force them into following any form of expected plot.

I've seen them played well, but when someone tells me they are playing a dumb character i usually find it more frustrating than fun and creative
