Ertrick36 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I'd be a fool and a faker if I didn't list Oboro here. Anyway, as for the rest of them, these just come off the top of my head in no real order: Naked Snake/Big Boss (Metal Gear) The Boss (Metal Gear Solid 3) Revolver Ocelot (Metal Gear Solid) Psycho Mantis (Metal Gear Solid) Catria (Fire Emblem) Lucina (Fire Emblem) Hector (Heckin' Fire Emblem) Katarina (Fire Emblem) Oifaye ('Stache Emblem) Nino (Fire Emblem: Only Franchise That Doesn't Make All Their Kids Annoying Shits) Isara Gunther (Valkyria Chronicles) Literally all the Darcsens in Valkyria Chronicles 1 Brigitte "Rosie" Stark (Valkyria Chronicles) Largo Potter (Valkyria Chronicles) Cassandra (Soul Calibur) Seong Mi-Na (Soul Calibur) Arthur Morgan (Red Dead Redemption 2) John Demption Marston (Red Dead Redemption) Garus Vakarian (Mass Effect) Legion (Mass Effect) Tali (Mass Effect - won't say her full name because it changes, like, twice) Arcade israel Ganon (Fallout: New Vegas) Caesar (Fallout: New Vegas) Veronica Santangelo (Fallout: New Vegas) Craig Boone (Fallout: New Vegas) Chief Hanlon (Fallout: New Vegas) Ulysses (Fallout: New Vegas - All DLCs) Joshua Graham (Fallout: New Vegas) Let's just say there's too many characters I like from FO:NV, Metal Gear, and Fire Emblem for me to list them all. And I only limited this to games. If it extended to official TV shows, movies, and books, there'd be hundreds. And if it also included stuff from less "official" platforms such as YouTube let's plays, then only the sky would be the limit.

TheGoodHoms Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019  I decided I would only pick characters from games I have played and only one character per series. Rosalina(Mario)- A character in a Mario game with a fleshed out backstory is rare, but really satisfying.Midna(Legend of Zelda)- The most likable companion in the Zelda series, at least from what I've played.Eliwood(Fire Emblem)- I know this is an unpopular choice, but I like having classic paragon heroes.Hades(Kid Icarus)- Unceasingly entertaining villain I will reference for years to come.Reyn(Xenoblade)- My favorite video game character of all time. Endearingly goofy, but fiercely loyal to the people he cares about.Cammy(Street Fighter)- Great backstory, loved seeing her progression through the series, also fun to play.Cecil(Final Fantasy)- Biased for FF4, but Cecil's arc of redemption really makes me root for him.Julius Belmont(Castlevania)- Everyone's got a favorite Belmont, Julius is a straight up Badass.Specter Knight(Shovel Knight)- Specter of Torment does a really good job of getting you to sympathize with this tragic villain.Prince Vorkken(The Wonderful 101)- A gloriously hammy anti-hero and a great doppelganger boss fight.The Kid(Bastion)- Once you learn his backstory, The Kid becomes a lot more interesting than his silent protagonist status might lead you to believe.Sol Badguy(Guilty Gear)- My favorite character to play as in any fighting game, also any reference to my favorite band Queen is always a win.Jodariel(Pyre)- Jodariel is such a mom and I love her.Big Band(Skullgirls)- Such a creative character concept and I like jazz.Reinhardt(Overwatch)- I adore Darin De Paul and Reinhardt embodies true heroism in my eyes.

Fire Emblem Fan Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Crash Bandicoot is without a doubt my favorite video game character. After Crash, I love Bowser (Mario), Lyn (Fire Emblem), and classic/Reignited Spyro (Spyro the Dragon) a lot. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonFlames Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) Been a while, hasn't it? Here's my list of my personal favourite video game characters in no particular order. Christophorus (Nights of Azure / Nights of Azure 2) (I mean, just look at my pfp) Arnice (Nights of Azure / Nights of Azure 2) Malvasia (Nights of Azure 2) Ryuji Sakamoto (Persona 5) (though you could put every party member from that game in this spot, plus Hifumi) Sophie (Atelier Sophie) Chrom (Fire Emblem Awakening) Hilda (Stella Glow) Lucifer (Shin Megami Tensei IV) Anne (Bravely Second) Edea Lee (Bravely Default) Velvet Crowe (Tales of Berseria) Jade Curtiss (Tales of the Abyss) Gaius (Tales of Xillia / Tales of Xillia 2) Amaterasu (Okami) Mia (Fire Emblem Path of Radiance / Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn) Miror B (Pokémon Colosseum / Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness) Grovyle (Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky / Time / Darkness) Rinna (Shining Resonance: Refrain) Magilou (Tales of Berseria) Celica (Fire Emblem Echoes) Edited April 6, 2019 by DragonFlames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henrymidfields Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) There aren't many, as I tend to come and go, but: Nearly everyone in Persona 3/4 (and hopefully 5 too - I haven't played yet.) in general, but particularly: Yosuke starts out with some good mature moments when he's not thinking about girls at school, and that makes him more complex than the standard sidekick. (Though, perhaps because of this, his character development seems somewhat weaker than Junpei at times...) Chie's sense of justice was essentially me in elementary school looking after my down symdrome sister. Yukiko has some surprising moments in her character, and she also seem really fitting for my playthrough Yu's girlfriend. Kanji had some good moments showing how the strict gender norms/expectations in Japan is detrimental. Rise had some good commentary on the preception of celebrities in general, and the Japanese idol in particular. Minako, the only female protagonist, and unlike what tends to happen with some female main leads (I'm looking at you, Fire Emblem), she kicks ass just as much as the male protagonist. Atlus, we need more protags like her! Ryotaro Dojima is a well-done tragic figure, who struggled to relate to Nanako and come to terms with his wife's death, while emotionally running away into his job. Nanako Dojima is also another complex character I appreciate; her innocence and her maturity and how she tries to understand society and life. While everyone in the series feels like actual people (as opposed to the so-called trashy anime characters), this applies most with Ryotaro and Nanako. (Persona 4) Mitsuru and Akihiko: So hot, so badass, so intelligent, they are the paragon of all Gekkokan students. Junpei: While he didn't start out with the character complexity of Yosuke, this is offset with his top-notch character development with Chidori. Itsuki Aoi (TMS) - One thing that he did well unlike the majority of FE Lords - actually give the female characters time to shine, and not hogging the spotlight. Roy (FE Binding Blade) Lilina (FE Binding Blade) Caeda (more so on Tokyo Mirage Sessions) Yuna (Final Fantasy 10) Nate and Rosa (Pokemon Black 2) Zelda (Zelda, Twilight Princess) Ganon (Zelda, series-wide) Anju and Kafei (Zelda: Majora's Mask) Edited April 6, 2019 by henrymidfields Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanguard333 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Ah man; this is difficult. In no particular order: Heroes: Link (The Legend of Zelda) Ike (Fire Emblem) Lan Hikari & Megaman (Megaman Battle Network) Geo Stelar (Megaman Star Force) Rhys (Fire Emblem) Elincia (Fire Emblem) Claude Wallace (Valkyria Chronicles 4) Ogma (Fire Emblem) Captain Toad (Mario) Dunban (Xenoblade Chronicles) Villains: Ganondorf (The Legend of Zelda) Bowser Jr (Mario) Ashnard (Fire Emblem) Lehran (Fire Emblem) Metal Face (Xenoblade Chronicles) Egil (Xenoblade Chronicles) Supporting Characters: Zelda (The Legend of Zelda, but especially Spirit Tracks Zelda) Palutena (Kid Icarus) The King of Red Lions (The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker) Cynthia (Pokémon Diamond, Pearl and Platinum) Lillie (Pokémon Sun and Moon) And I'm certain there are a few more that I just can't remember off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
