    Sora is one of my favourite characters. It's really impressive how well he can fit into the Disney worlds. His friendships are beautiful and it plays into the gameplay and story perfectly. His friends are quite literally his power. One and a half pints might be my favourite JRPG party

    4. *Velvet Crowe* (Tales of Berseria)
    3. *Kalas* (Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean)

    @MotherKojiro Год назад +2

    Zidane is such an interesting character; aside from everything you mentioned here, I love that scene right around beginning of the third disc. You know the one: he's an upbeat goofball all the time, but now he's really hurting because he's trying to be taken seriously, and he knows that's going to be almost impossible because of who he is and how others see him; so rarely do goofball characters address that other side.
    For me, the obvious choice is Asellus from SaGa Frontier, whose scenario I am coincidentally playing right now. She gets thrown into some ridiculous circumstances, but the gist of it is that she's torn between two worlds, and has absolutely no place in either one. She spends her time trying to fit into her new life or go back to her old one, but once she figures out that she doesn't belong anywhere, she says screw it and carves out her own little slice of the cosmos. Terra from Final Fantasy 6 and Nina from Breath of Fire 2 resonate strongly with me for similar reasons, so runner-up would probably go to Cecil Harvey. He's also been put through a lot, and has a lot of weight on his own conscience, but instead of moping and whining about it, he puts his feeling aside because there's a job to be done; there's plenty of time to reflect once the world is safe again.

  • @sokumotanaka9271
    @sokumotanaka9271 Год назад +1

    Yeah I guess it depends on the silent Protag, I think Dragon Age Origins and Persona 3 do it well where you still have the character be silent
    but their canon choices still serve ti help the other characters in the cast grow while still showing that even if only alittle this character has emotions
    that sine through quietly.

    I am pleasantly surprised by your picks. Especially the number one and two slot. You get so used to the same final Fantasy style picks on these lists you took me by surprise. Great stuff and couldn't agree with you more with Shulk, Ryudo though, I think he is very different by the end of the game. At the start he's all like, "I know you already hate me so I hate you first." by the end of the game he is spouting about righteousness and stopping evil. I missed his attitude but Grandia 2 is one of the very best RPG's that no one ever talks about. Pelvic Gaming you did good on this one.

    The character arc, the side characters, the story, the music, the writing for the 1000 years of dreams by Kiyoshi Shigematso.
    The games characters and writing legit brought me to tears.

The story didn't just happen to him. Also his expressions helped. That Link actually had emotions. Also he's the only hero who is not predestined and not a reincarnation of the sprit of courage. Just a regular kid who became a hero on his own merit.

    I once played all the (then available) Final Fantasies back to back in numerical order. I'd completely missed the PS1 era so they were all brand new to me, and I cannot tell you how much of a breath of fresh air Zidane was as a protagonist after 7 and 8. I appreciate Cloud and Squall's journeys don't get me wrong, but it felt so nice to have a main character that didn't have an initial level of sourpuss to get over. While he had his own journey and foibles, his role of supporting the other characters on their own path of self-discovery is fun and gratifying. Zidane's a big reason why 9 remains my favorite FF from that era of the franchise.

He played some of it on my PSX(acronym at the time, before the actual Japanese-only PS2 console existed) with like a 10" tv.

    Sora is what I like to call an Effortlessly Well-Written Character. In my opinion, character writing and dynamics are some of what Kingdom Hearts does best, taking simple characters and giving them a lot of depth, and Sora is no exception that, but at the same time, with a character who's so naturally likeable like Sora, it almost doesn't matter how well written they are, and I think no moment better exemplifies this than the ending of Dream Drop Distance. Without going into spoilers, I think, in universe, it's so stupid and unfair that Sora doesn't get the same reward as Riku, but the way he reacts makes me not care about it anymore. It's representation of his character and somehow takes that should be frustrating and makes extremely wholesome.
    Craziest part is he's not even my favourite character (Ventus Sweep/Xion Sweep).

    The entire point of a role playing game is to play a role, which means the player making the decisions for that role. The JRPG protagonists who make all the choices in the player's stead are fundamentally antithetical to role playing games, but then again JRPGs have very little to do with role playing anyway. They're more visual novels with stats and battles attached.
    At least the silent protagonists attempt including the player, though poorly.

    I only got halfway through Xenoblade because I thought the characters were really underwhelming, Shulk in particular. I don't understand the appeal of a character who's just defined by being "the good guy". Doing the right thing isn't a personality trait and sadly I really don't know what else there is to him. No real quirks or flawscome to mind. He really does nothing for me.

      Have you ever had to stand up to a friend? Like *really* check them. It's easy to stand up against an enemy, but a friend???
      I think you're downplaying "doing the right thing".
      But also kindness is a personality trait. He may not be outwardly goofy or gimmicky. Underwhelming perhaps compared to those around him, ya know fair enough but I think when shit really hits the fan he's a great protagonist by virtue of his actions. Edit: idk how far you got but Shulk had every reason to say fuck the truth these bitches should die but he didn’t. And he crossed swords with his homie because of it.

      @@PelvicGaming I haven't gotten to that cutscene where he faces Dunban but seeing it here comforted me in having quit the game because it doesn't reframe my impression of Shulk at all. Water is wet, the sky is blue, the hero is kind and will stand up for what's right. It seems to be a virtue all the other character on the list share or come to share. It's 'a bit like having white bread in a list of beast meals, yaknow ?
      I'm not saying you shouldn't like him, I wanted to like him too. But I just don't.

      Fair enough you didn't vibe with him. I'm not here to change minds. I think being kind and doing the right thing is part the course for most protags true, but how they go about it, the build up, the believable conviction, is what makes them shine.
      I cant downplay Shulk's character.
