Who is your Favorite Character in Gaming History so far?


DarknessKey92

Recommended Posts

I'm listing the game because I've noticed different director's of X or Y instalments take different characterisations to characters. Example Lara Croft in Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is far superior to the one in Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

 

Best written, directed and acted

Lara Croft - Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition

Vaas Montenegro - Far Cry 3

 

Honourable mentions:

Kratos - God of War (PS4)

Pamitha Theyne - Pyre

Aurora - Child of Light

 

Waifu/Crush

Ann Takamaki - Persona 5

Laura S. Arseid - Sen no Kiseki series

Musse Egret - Sen no Kiseki III

Rosar var Attre - The Witcher III: Wild Hunt

Jack-O Valentine - Guilty Gear Xrd -Revelator-

Emily - Stardew Valley

Isaac Clarke (Dead Space series)
Darth Vader
Yoda
Picard (Star Trek)
Astaroth (Soulcalibur series)
Zack (Dead or Alive series)

Norns! I bloody loved Norns. I had a really cute one with blonde hair called Chloe. But then she died and it was emotional. We are going back to the 90s gaming on my PC. 
 

Spyro, Sonic and Abe will always be close to my heart. And who can forget Ecco the really cute dolphin.

Geralt of Rivia (Witcher series) - His ruthlessness is thrilling.

 

Kratos (God of War) - You will hate beacuse of this, but in the future, he may be a better fatherly authority than many fathers in real life.

 

Trevor Philips (GTA V) - I'd like to see him and Vaas at dinner together :D


Carl Johnson (GTA San Andreas) - A coward who left his loved ones when they needed him the most, but when he returned he understood his mistake and did the darndest to fix everything.


Niko Bellic (GTA IV) - His eyes have seen too much shit and now he has to deal with a lie of an "American Dream".


Tifa Lockhart (Final Fantasy VII) - some text that objectifies women


Johny Gat (Saints Row) - If Johnny Bravo had Chad twin

.

Agent 47 (Hitman series) - My favorite bald man next to Billy Corgan, Joe Rogan and Johny Sins.


Arthur Morgan (Red Dead Redemption 2) - Although he's on this list, I wouldn't like to have anything to do with him, or have problems with him.

 

Spyro (Spyro series) - The very first character that I was able to control in my gamer's "career".

This is a tough question, because people could choose based off personality, or looks, or even game mechanics or abilities of the character.

 

I'm thinking like Kain or Dark Knight Cecil from FFIV, or Ramza from FF Tactics.  Yet I think I'm probably going to go with Ashley Riot over Sydney Losstarot from Vagrant Story.

 

I question myself in my choice thinking is it the game I loved more then the character or did I love the character equally.  I found the name weird as I relate Ashley to a girl name, yet it's a male character.  There is no actual voices in the game, so you are reading like comic clouds of text, yet from the opening sequence through the whole game Ashley had this swagger and kind of an understanding to his backstory that you could relate to.  He wasn't on some quest for vengeance like Kratos was, yet had similar issues with his families fate; instead he took the most dangerous missions he could.  The combat in the game some could say was slow, yet it was more strategic and made you think.  The storyline is one of the best ever in a video game, and some of Ashley's facial expressions were done so well so that you could feel what he was feeling at those times.  It was intense and incredible.

 

Vagrant Story one of the best games ever, no trophy support, yet highly recommended for a PS1 classic.
