I can't really say I had a "favorite", there were many great characters out there, from Fei Wong Fong to Ark from Terranigma, but there was never a person that made me obsessed or love over.
I'd have to say Viktor from Suikoden II. He is very powerful, very useful, and has one of the most hilarious personalities ever.
I'm not sure. It would be one of these.
Sabin~FF6- Strong, his moves are easy to use and he is hilarious.
Lloyd~Tales of Symphonia- He is easy to use, quick attacks, decent running speed and also hilarious.
Bebedora~Arc: Twilight of the spirits- Her puppet threads weave a web of despair, and they are very helpful, plus she gets some very good spells.
Volk~Arc: Twilight of the spirits- He is strong, and his increase attack/defence spells help.
Vivi~FF9- He's a black mage, what else to say?
Um i think its obvious.
<-----
Probably because it was my first RPG and i think the first you play for some people makes the biggest impact. I just love cloud and he will always be my favorite.
Prince Laharl from Disgaea: Hour of Darkness. Looks cool, he's bada[b][/b]ss, he's evil, and he also reminds me a lot of myself when I was much younger. :P
'nuff said.
Probably Jon Irenicus From BG2. He had the perfect balance of eveil and insanity.
erm, all from the BG series
Minsc (and Boo) just because they're insane and great party members
Edwin- Ever wanted that evil spellcaster who hates incompetence?
Montaron- Perhaps one of the most evil NPC's to ever appear in an RPG (who's not related to the main character or is an evil version of someone else)
Joneleth Irenicus- See above
Xan- Hurrah for manic depressive elven mages!
Sarevok- Deathbringer Assault, 'nuff said
Felix from Golden Sun/The Lost Age. I could use all kinds of weapons, was very powerfull with psynergy, and was a real bad*ss.
Auron from FFX. He's just cool.
I can't pick just one, so I'll list mine and give my reasonings.
Kefka (Final Fantasy VI) - Probably my favorite video game villain of all time. Ingenious, evil, crazy mastermind.
Lloyd (Legend of Dragoon) - He was just absolutely amazing. From when you first fight him, to the end of the game - he always had interested me. And not to mention, he gained the powers of the Platinum Dragoon, and that, was plain awesome.
Albedo + chaos (Xenosaga Episode I) - Albedo's ability + chaos' mysteriousness, along with his looks, the voice (Reminded me of Dark Crystal), and his abilities as well.
Sephiroth because he was so powerful even though he is a push over at the end of 7
Sephiroth of course, and then sora next, and then after sora, i would pick lloyd from legend of the dragoon because he was just plain awesome.
seph from ff7 because hes got the villain thing going pretty well.
i have several:
kratos-tales of symphonia- he is kick ***, is 4000 years old but still youthful, wise, powerful, and a cool personality and cool looks
alex-golden sun- he is an always calm guy, he is the most powerful, is plotting against everyone(even his comrades) from the start, and he controls water my favorite element
riku-kingdom hearts- over all he is just a badass with a cool personality, cool looks, grey hair, and the most unique power of all: twilight
cid-all ff games- he is just really cool because he is always the airship owner and is hilarious*cough* cough* ff7 cough*
Mint from Tales of Phantasia - Quiet yet interesting personality, and the extremely well-written script made it more fun to find out more about her.
Crono from Chrono Trigger - The only really interesting silent protagonist I've seen.
I was going to mention someone else, but it seems to have slipped my mind.
Riku from Kingdom Hearts. Cause he has a cocky personality and he just plain kicks ***.
my list.
Pokemon
Mewtwo: ultimate Pokemon that can wipe out even the toughest pokemon around
Articuno: a very "Cool" pokemon that has lots of ice attacks.
FF7
Yuffie: fun character who can morph enemies into items with ease.
FF9
Elko: the fairy girl with lots of holy power.
(breath of fire 2)
Katt: an all attacker tiger lady.
Ryu: dragon summons rock.
FFT:
Ramza: a hero with a hard past.
Rafa: a strong magic user.
and that's it for me.
Link why? The legend of zelda was my first video game and i grew up with zelda games. other favorites cloud (FF7), sora(kingdom hearts) my sim, FF chronicles, and runescape character, and sephiroth(FF7) :sniper: *pikachu* :bangbang: :bowser: :devil: :flame:
Squall, from final fantasy VIII cuz he's just like me
Plus he has the kick-ass GunBlade.
For me, If GTA:San Andreas counts as an RPG, I would pick CJ. Later on in the game I really felt for him and the emotional stuff soar heights for a videogame. I dont know why but it was only for me. When Big Smoke and Ryder betrayed CJ I was pissed.. It was just a great game. I loved the storyline. And CJ is gangsta.
Squall is one of the lamest characters in the existence of RPGs.
Now, Jon Irenicus. THAT'S where it's at. Good job for putting him in your list, Fiindil.
Hard decision.
Final Fantasy II- Leonheart - This guy actually had everybody in Phin worried that he was dead. He had betrayed all his friends and is just plain badass. XD
Tales of Symphonia- Lloyd - This guy is just plain hilarious. Expecially with Presea around.
Golden Sun: Lost Age- Alex - He just impresses me alot. He can play both the goody and the bad guy and fit both parts like a glove. Either way, he plots with evil as an idol.
Golden Sun: Lost Age- Lunpa - Though a very minor character, he had alot of spunk and energy for the time and events going on at the time. It was hilarious.
Final Fantasy VIII- Irvine - Though the occassional wussy, he often pisses off Zell, and can drag everyone up for the time being.
Final Fantasy VIII- Seifer - He had the amazing ability to not only piss off Zell (which is funny inside of itself), but the rest of the world for namely, himself. He even enjoyed it in the process.
Let's see....
Tales of Symphonia: Kratos; Gotta love the warriors. Lloyd was too much of a pansy, and Genis was bleh.
Final Fantasy VII: RedXIII/Nanaki: One of the more intelligent characters, and kicked ass by clawing/biting enemies to death...
Xenosaga Epsiodes I & II: KOS-MOS; Her looks can kill you, literally. XD
BassGS from the Megaman Battle Network 3 game. (Where I got my name) and um...probably Yaradovich and Mario from Super Mario RPG.
Cyan Garamode - Final Fantasy III: Cyan is the defintion of noble. The protector of Doma watches his family die from poison which is in itself a tragedy, but then his killer rampage on Kefka's forces is a great scene. He is by far one of the more compelling characters in the game. Plus, Sword Tech fucking Rocks.
Shadow Hearts-yuri-he's just so badass
FFVII-squall-calm cool,and gets the girls
All time fave character would have to be... either Pahn or Granseal from Suikoden 1 or.... Leon From Tales Of Destiny.
Gyzor from one of my games on Rpg maker, i can make some pretty badass games on that
Tough decison, I think I like Zidane the most. Just because he got smarter and martured as the story went on.
vivi (vivi rules all)
sephoroth
quina
in that order
Lucas Blight- Suikoden II.
Can't beat pure untamed evil. Also, the *spoiler I guess* way he died almost made me feel sorry for his ***. The fact that it took three consecutive parties plus a 1-on-1 duel to take him down puts him in the bad*** (stupid censors -_-) catorgory.
[IMG]http://re2.mm-b1.yimg.com/image/683901838[/IMG] Geno, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars- Because he is quick, powerful, and can fire high energy lasers from his arm and can strike multiple foes. He's also a doll that's being controlled by a star spirit and there's just something cool about that...
[IMG]http://re2.mm-a1.yimg.com/image/31881190[/IMG] Isaac, Golden Sun- Able to control the power of the earth with his mind and weilds many powerful swords... not to mention he's my friend's favorite, too.
[IMG]http://re2.mm-c1.yimg.com/image/1322037125[/IMG] Felix, Golden Sun: The Lost Age- A friend yet rival to Isaac. I actually like him more because he kinda looks like me... kinda. I always argue with my friend that Felix is cooler than Isaac.
[IMG]http://re2.mm-a1.yimg.com/image/377944708[/IMG] Moogle, any nuber of Final Fantasy games, but especially Tactics Advance- Moogles are funny little guys that love to play pranks on others but can kick some major butt when the time comes. They got a nice role in FFTA and I love having an all moogle clan for unknown reasons.
(I only posted the pics because I've been having troulbe getting pics to stay recently...)
I really don't think we needed the pictures sir. There is, after all, a test board.
And I remember who I was thinking of now: Ark from Terranigma.
Fei Fong Wong. I don't really know why. I just love this guy. Everything about him makes me wish that I could be him. Maybe it's because Xenogears was my first RPG.
Agreed with Vampire Slayer here, Fei Fong Wong is awesome. But I do believe Id is just a smidgen more bad-***. And Emeralda is equal to Id in my point of view.
And someone I can't forget to mention, Crono from Chrono Trigger.
From Fable: The lost chapters, the guy u play as(you choose your own name) because if u do evil things, you turn evil, and same for good things, and people on the game treat you differently if u have horns growing out when u are evil of your head or a halo above your head for being good
Cloud - FFVII : Yes, I'm a ***-****ed fanboy.
Vivi - FFIX : He rocked so much world.
Jack - Radiata Stories : Biggest retard ever to rock ***.
Thrall - WC3/WoW : Just play the games to see why.
Tomi - NWN : The sarcastic little fool saved my life too many times.
Sheena Fujibayashi - Tales of Symphonia - She's just cool.
Paine - FF X-2 - SHE'S GOTH!
Cloud of FFVII. He arrives and kicks some utter *** for sephiroth killing his beloved. Utter kick asserey. Then sora, because he is just sora, nuff said.
Let's see here...
Kefka- Come on, how can you NOT like this guy? He would ****ing whup Sephiroth.
Fia- My favorite Riviera girl. <3
Zelos- I tend to like the characters that provide comedy. "We're goin' with my pimp plan!"
...Holy crap, I can't remember anyone else. :(
The best RPG characters ever are:
Frog~Chrono Trigger~Hes a friggin frog with a sword~
Magus~Chrono Trigger~The Ruler of Darkness, Love it~
Crono~Chrono Trigger~ Ultimate fighter, destroys all with lightning~
Robo~Chrono Trigger~Hes a ***-****ned robot~
Mario~Paper Mario~Defeated Bowser, AND the X-Nauts with style~
Link~Ocorina+Twilight Princess~Hes Link, Nuff said~
ya mines a tie between Sephiroth-FF7 and Vincent-FF7, and Frog-CronoTrigger.
If you call Castlevania: PoR an RPG, I'd put Brauner on my list. His boss fight is the best in the game, plus, I like his little bits of dialogue (This... is... art!). :)
Orlandu and Mewtwo, because I beleive they are the most powerful characters to step into gaming. Orlandu is so bad he does roughly 80% of all damage ur team deals out after he joins you and you could probably beat the original pokemon with Mewtwo alone.
The Dark Adonis/ Mid Boss from Disgaea Hour of Darkness
He is the coolest of all characters. He just doesn't know when to give up, and he is a demon with free access to Celestia.
Though widely criticized as the most femenine looking character in video game history, I'm going with Tidus from FFX. His backstory was very confusing, but he made you believe in his saga. You laughed when he laughed, you cried when he cried...../sigh. Great game. lol
I'm going to say Sora, not just because I'm a huge KH fan, but because he was my age, I could sort of relate to him. I liked his unique clothing, and his couragousness(sp) when everything had been taken away from him.
P.S: 666th post! =p
Moya lubimaya Rolevaya... Sorry.
My favorite RPG is Fallout2. Because it class. Great characters. The savage with the ground, the Old man with a rifle. And in general: a theme of nuclear war and an atmosphere of a full decadence. Abruptly.
favorite character Albel He is so full of hate you love him not to mention he has skills
I've got to go with Orlandu, He's so stupid powerful. Try and beat Tactics without him, the game is easily twice as hard, especially if your not swift with the job classes and how arrange your Ramza. The old Knight with 2-swords just doesn't cut it without the Thunder *** to save your skin.
I'm also a big fan of the Legendary Birds from the original Pokemon series. Having Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres could make anytime versatile, throw in Mewtwo and ur sittin pretty stout.
Both from Suikoden II:
Flik - because he's just so cool.
Luca Blight - the only RPG villain who doesn't need some sappy backstory for an excuse to be evil. HOO HOO HEE HEE PIGS
Nikolai from Luminous Arc. Hilarious personality, and tries to get it on with a seven year old. How can you not love?
With initials like VGC, how could there NOT be pedophiles all over the place?
I'm not the pedophile. Nikolai is.
It's tough to settle on one character. I love Ramza (FFT) a whole helluvalot, but that might be due to the fact that FFT is my favorite game ever.
FF7- cloud (of course) he was my first rpg character hero person XD. and his sword is just HUGE.
Disgaea 1-2 FLONNE! how can you not like flonne?
Moogles and Moombas- because they are silly little creatures.
and finally, i like emelius from Grandia 3, he was one of the coolest, clueless bad guys XD
It's all about Etna.
agreed. also etna was flatter therefore better.
But of course.
aww....no love for flonne?
Fuuuuuuck it's gonna be impossible for me to pick one. I'll have to think about it for a while.
oh, hai there david, i think we've met, does a red pom pom remind you of anything? (im still going with flonne)
[quote=cloud1570;895907]oh, hai there david, i think we've met, does a red pom pom remind you of anything? (im still going with flonne)
I thought that I recognized your avatar from FurAffinity Forums.
yay! it is you, have you decided yet? flonne or etna?
I don't know who either of those people are. I didn't read the thread before posting.
oh XD never mind then.
I've never really played the Disgaea games (though I'd love to eventually) but it's definitely ETNA ETNA ETNA for me. Kinda like how Sten asks if it's Nina or Katt in BoF2. KATT KATT KATT.
Speaking of Breath of Fire, Rei from BoF3 is easily one of my favorite RPG characters of all time.
[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/BreakmanDX/art-rei1.gif[/IMG]
I mean, he looks incredible, he's got this AWESOME 'big bro' personality that just somehow awesomely fits with the whole 'insane werebeast' thing from the second half so well because you couldn't possibly hate or be mad at him, and fantastic dialogue. Plus, he's good in battle and just looks so **** slick when he executes his basic attack it's almost criminal.
I also really, REALLY love Dekar from Lufia 2:
[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/BreakmanDX/dekar.gif[/IMG]
lol super high res pic. He looks awesome, has an amazing personality (big tough brainless knight guy but he's actually SO strong and determined that he's able to completely shatter puzzles and mindgames that'd usually subdue similar characters) and is just incredibly memorable, not to mention GREAT in battle despite not having a single spell; his physical stats are absolutely monstrous! A must-have for Ancient Cave mode!
