Favorite Video Game Characters

Hello @Sajjux, thank you for asking me. My favorite characters are the following:

1) Riku from the Kingdom Hearts series: At the beginning of the series, Riku is the anti-hero of the story and rival to the main character of the series – Sora. However, after being nearly taken over by the main antagonist of the first game, he realizes the error of his ways and changes from an anti-hero that worked for the villains to a hero that uses the darkness to fight for the light.

2) Arthur Morgan from Red Dead Redemption 2: It is my favorite video game of all-time. Arthur’s story is a heartbreaking tale of family, survival, and vengeance. The van der Linde gang’s story is an action thriller tragedy that results in each character’s fall from grace as the story progresses. As for Arthur, he is the glue that tries to keep everyone in his gang together but it comes at a price for him. Nevertheless, he helps not only his gang but NPCs who need a helping hand through side missions. Not only that, but he changes from the right-hand man of Dutch van der Linde to an individual hero that saves members of his gang based upon his own ideals. I recommend RDR2 highly because of the main character of Arthur and his story.

3) Itachi Uchiha from Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm series: A villain of the series that turned out to be a spy and hero of the Hidden Leaf Village. Based upon the anime and manga of Naruto and Naruto Shippuden, Itachi is a flawed character that carries the burdens of the ninja world on his shoulders in order to protect his brother, Sasuke. However, his brother hates him for killing their clan known as the Uchiha clan. With that being said, if Itachi did not kill his family clan then a war with his village and his family would produce a coup d’etat and possibly a world world with the other nations. So, he is also considered one of my favorite characters.

I may have more favorite characters in the future, but you get the idea from these three characters what I look for within a particular character to become a favorite. I hope this answers your question and I see you in another discussion in the near future.

Hello @Kenny_Cartman, thank you for your reply. I appreciate your selection of favorite characters and your images of each character. As I said with Hazu, I cannot give an opinion on Legion because I have not played Mass Effect. Nevertheless, I have played Final Fantasy X and Sir Auron was an amazing character with an amazing character arc. I appreciate his role as a mentor to Tidus and Yuna. I have heard of Lara Coft but never played a Tomb Raider game.
