[Accountsden]

Hey guys!

That is Death knight..

[Cureless_Poison]

I typically like any bad-ass manly characters.

[iamafish]

total and utter pompous asshole with daddy issues, what's not to like?



great anti-hero



who said he had to be the hero? "a man chooses, a slave obeys"

[Darkobra]

There's a character the OP can get behind. Or a man of that stature can get behind him.

[Slack Mesa]

Those are all good characters, and imma let you finish, but Weighted Companion Cube is the best video game protagonist.

[Vanguard]

Ah, April Ryan, still one of my favorites even after all this time

FF8 was one of the first games I played and it's one of my faves.

[Vanguard]

In that case I'm going to give you a bit of advice: don't watch The Spoony Experiment. Ever.

Meanwhile, in a vain attempt to give this post some sustenance, here are the runners-up to Ms. Ryan for my favorite characters.



A man of few words who needs no introduction.



The real Shepard is a woman, goddammit. I don't care what anyone else says.



So bad-ass that you don't even need to understand what he's saying. Or what she's saying. Whatever.



This guy makes insanity look good.

And for the record, you all should be damn proud of me for not listing any of the customizable characters in games that I've made into myself. It takes a lot of effort to keep my rampant narcissism in check.

Get the fuck out.

[Lavos]

Fuck you matt FF8 was the greatest FF there was. The gunblade is revolutionary to this very fucking day. Open your eyes.

[James]

I agree with Lavos, all hail Lavos!

[SilPho]

Nostalgic favourite: Tex Murphy.

Recent favourites: GLADoS & Yuna (not in X-2)

[Danzama]

Matt you are outnumbered 3:1.

You are wrong.

[MotorWaffle]

Bill from Left 4 Dead


Brad Wong from Dead or Alive


Dr. Faust from Guilty Gear

[Drinnik]

I'm on my phone, so no pictures until I get home, but mine are Tifa Lockheart, Lara Croft, Guybrush Threepwood and Luigi.

[Trymantha]

Matt you are outnumbered 3:1.

You are wrong.

im sorry but im on the side of Matt and I would like more of an answer than "one of my favs"

[Danzama]

He's the first character i can remember that game was, and still is, an awesome experience. I feel the character was deep and compelling and he looks kick ass.

what points in the game made you find him deep and compelling(im not trying to start a flame war just curious)

[iamafish]

did you also find is 'cinematic' to go with 'compelling'?

[Danzama]

I'm not going into this. Just saying he is awesome in my opinion, leaving it at that. also i got pis (love the pac man one)

[Jillers]

Guybrush Threepwood.

And I'm also on Matt's side. I've dealt with enough whiny broody teenagers (and WAS one to boot) to know that they're not compelling characters.

Meh, you're free to like whatever character you like, but there are some things that just do not compute for other people.

[GreigKM]

Hey Matt, I still like the Gunblade!

Also, FF8 really wasn't that bad, especially not when compared to the other horrific Final Fantasy games from recent times.

[SilPho]

At least FFX was good.
