What's your favorite character, any game?

Dig a lot of characters over the years. Think I'd have to go with Heather Mason, Silent Hill 3. Chick sees the most horrific ish going on around her, and is like, 'whatev'-------->smashes horrible ish in the face with a steel pipe. Or shoots it. Plus, she's got this whole gloomy humor about her, which is nice. Makes me feel fuzzy inside.

What about you guys?

I would say scorpion. Nobody has had more of an influence on me. (In the world of video games).

Luigi, from the Super Mario series. I've been thinking about getting a Luigi tattoo. I don't know whether I want Luigi's and Mario's faces or something that has Luigi jumping on a Goomba or Koopa. Right now I don't know. It's going to take some time to think & pray about it. An honourable mention goes to Brucie from Grand Theft Auto 4. He was hilarious.

Arthur from RDR2 or the rebooted Kratos (the gow2018 kratos, not the pussified Kratos from Ragnarok).

Medic from battlefield

Barney from Half Life

1. Solid Snake (greatest video game character ever)
2. Arthur Morgan (most well written character ever)
3. Kratos (best character development of any character ever)
4. Dante
5. Joel Miller (main character of the consensus greatest game of all time)
6. Seymour (FFX)
7. Captain Price
8. Ocelot
9. Leon Kennedy
10. Master Chief

Honourable mentions: Geralt, Doom Guy, Chris Redfield, Vergil, Father Comstock, Andrew Ryan,

Link, none sexy like Link.

Yeah I've always had a soft spot for Luigi too. And of course Mario.

GLaDOS from Portal has always been a favourite too.

Just a few

@last_lap: lol! If there’s a winner in this thread it’s you. Cool cars!

Incredibly pathetic cars, honestly.

Kratos

Sephiroth

Dante and Vergil

So many.. Solid Snake, Bayonetta, Cloud Strife, Link.. can go on and on.

So many to choose from. Could go with any one of these:

- Link

- Mario

- Crono from Chrono Trigger

- Solid Snake

- Leon Kennedy

- Bayonetta

- Ryu Hyabusa from Ninja Gaiden

- Simon Belmont from Castlevania

- Cloud from Final Fantasy VII

Lol, you guys are supposed to pick your favorite....not your favorites. Your #1.

Mario

Maybe Kazuma Kiryu because he's always entertaining, but Eileen the Crow is an interesting character and cool AF

@AcidTango: Mario, I never get tired of him. His new iterations and new powerups are cool, as well.

@girlusocrazy: Eileen is one of the coolest characters ever. Agreed.

John Marston from Red Dead Redemption. He was doing good for the feds. The way he was backstabbed at the end made me shed a little tear.

Mine would be Ratchet from the first 3 games on PS2, hilarious sense of humour, and a loyal friend to Clank.

Sonic

sam fisher, specifically chaos theory sam.

and (sorry nod) guybrush threepwood from the early monkey island games

@Macutchi: I like Sam Fisher as well. At least until Ubisoft had him dramatically playing a piano in their character assassination trailer where he goes from low-key subtle dude to angry revenge 24 man with shitty running sections.

Kinda forgot they were remaking Splinter Cell. Be absolutely amazed if they don't **** it up.

@uninspiredcup: same. and let's not mention him in blacklist. i'd say there's roughly a 1 in 20 chance they won't fck the remake. insert dumb and dumber so youre telling me there's a chance gif

The L shape from Tetris

Good one. Really dig the T shape, myself.

• DoomGuy
• Agent 47
• Max Payne
• Sam fisher (original 3)
• Solid Snake
• JC Denton
• Aurther Morgan
• Tommy Angelo (original one. not remake shitty one)

while early Splinter cell games were better but character of Solid snake is much better than Sam fisher.

Snake is deep written character with excellent backstory and also protagonist of game that have one of the best story in gaming. MGS1.

When I discovered his British clone brother was in the bad cowboy mans hand I cried.

The one and only:

Hmmmm...

Favorite playable character:

• female Commander Shepard of ME
• Gordon Freeman of HL
• JC Denton of Deus Ex
• Garrett from Thief
• Sam Fisher from Splinter Cell

Favorite assistant character (i.e. a co-pilot, a second playable character, etc):

• Alyx Vance
• The brother from A Plague Tale

Favorite non-sentient character:

• Mothership from Homeworld. I mean you basically play the game as her.

Favorite RPG party member:

• Karlach of BG3. God she is so cool and pretty and strong. I love my female weightlifters and she is one (or would be)!

Favorite character that tells the story, narrative, etc. but isn't really part of the actual game once you get playing:

• Alexstrasza from WoW
• The Reaper (the main one) from ME 1, 2

This is art of storytelling.

Kojima back then was genious.

now he lost his shelf for former self. a man who lost his mind. claiming to make movie/game hybrid now.

Either SHODAN or Kane. SHODAN breaks something of a mould for evil AI villains. Evil AIs tend to be cold and analytical, and their villainy often comes from the logical conclusions of their calculations taken to extreme. SHODAN is anything but that; she's emotional, egotistical, ambitious and flawed, yet still conveys all of that character through a distinctly mechanical way befitting an AI.

And Kane just oozes charisma. He's the face of the C&C series for a reason.

So I see someone saying the same opinion I have about Kratos in Ragnarok. He has been turned into a Disney/Marvel character 🤦

As a sheep, you should never agree with a cow.

Kiryu from Yakuza. The guy has it all. His personality from the latest game was EPIC (The Man who Erased his Name)

@hardwenzen:

maaaaaaaa

moooooooo

Yeah pretty close to each other..

Joel Miller

Tommy from tlou2 was also great

Samus will always be my fav character.

@outworld222: Most people will think I'm trolling, but I actually mean it. Cars are characters in a game, and racing games are my Jam, and I'm Aussie,so it had to be Holdens.

It used to be Balthier of FFXII and I rocked his pic for the longest time on GS on my old account. Recently Cid of FFXVI taking the crown. Such a great character. Shout out to FeMC of Persona 3 Portable, Regina of Dino Crisis and Nathan Drake of Uncharted too!

😂

@sakaixx: Ha, almost forgot about Regina. Good one.

Probably Link. Link and I have been on a ton of adventures together. He gave me one of my most memorable experiences growing up just exploring the world of the original Zelda and trying to find all the secrets.

Even when the adventures were not up to the levels the series can achieve, the games always bring me joy. I enjoy seeing the different iterations of the character and the different worlds they can devise for me to explore for weeks upon weeks.

Just my opinion.
