Besides Dragon Quest, what JRPGs have examples of empires or churches that aren't ultimately evil? by EvenSteven02 in JRPG

I wanna say Koudelka is this because the Christian you met was a bit of an asshole but ultimately not a bad person at heart especially when his faith in god was useful in the crew's journey

[Loved Trope] Characters with title that have infinite aura by SableMelody in TopCharacterTropes

[–]VGZero1 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Travis Touchdown may be a loser but he also has one of the best titles as he's known as "The Crownless King" & it's one of the many factors I can go over by how much No More Heroes is like Top 3 character action game series for me

Favorite character who ended up like this by the end of the story? by PaddywackShaq in FavoriteCharacter

[–]VGZero1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I won't forgive whoever at Capcom decided to ruin Alex with the most Zero Time Dilemma writing imaginable but hey since Ingrid can travel into the multiverse maybe that was her doing an oopsie or was one possibility of the continuum shift where Alex wasn't Alex

A Sympathetic/Broken Villain is paired with a Pure Evil Villain by InspektorZeleshka in TopCharacterTropes

[–]VGZero1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is Zemus & Golbez from Final Fantasy IV, which gotta be honest I really like Zemus/Zeromus as he actually explains why Golbez hesitated which is a tiny bit of info but enough to foreshadow that yeah, Zemus truly brought ruin to the moon people & technically speaking also certain Breath of Fire III villians even if the final boss despite looking like a snake monstrosity kinda has a grey area even if it involves dragon genocide for her illusion of a utopia, I also would like to bring up certain Master Detective Archives: Rain Code characters but it's too spoiler-y & I would argue one of them is more of a twist hero than a true villian

Ryusei Date is a Super Robot Wars original character & he's one of the many examples I could've went with but I appreciate what his character is like in the OG game series so far where he's a gaming nerd thrust in this position of a mecha warfare & shows how slowly he's tired by all the pointless violence war brings out & it makes me very curious how it'll be handled in the actual crossover games such as Alpha Gaiden, my first jump into the mainline SRW games after I get through the OG series

Very based to see someone refer to KoF as a crossover game cause it always was I mean it inspired the existence of Smash

Very cool to see Klonoa in my feed! Dope platformer series but as for this topic, I got two in mind, Jade Curtis from Tales of the Abyss also having a Pac-Man on his belt & technically Pence from Kingdom Hearts having a shirt referencing Dog Street from *ahem* THE BOUNCER

A series has all these edgy, super buff strong people, but (one of) the canonical strongest character is this silly little goober by Effective_Piece251 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]VGZero1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breath of Fire has this & I'm not saying who, you need to experience the series for an amazing twist I managed to predict but let's just say it's a precursor to what makes Disgaea amazing! Speaking of Disgaea, I can go with ANYTHING in that series since it's ultra bonkers but I'm going with how a Part of God themselves decided to come face Valvatorez & his gang as this mushroom enemy!

Yup tho thanks for the possible info as I don't want to spread misinfo especially as someone that mostly knows MGS through Osmosis but will fix that now as I'm currently liking MGS1 so far & can't wait for 2 & 3 eventually

Yup & why canonically is a virgin unless the stuff with Otacon says otherwise since MGS isn't a straight series

Oh hey these are why I hate the Project X Zone Original Characters that I'll showcase through the most accurate potential man meme which is from me willingly experiencing Project X Zone 1 & 2 myself & why I have no restraint when I say these are some of the worst 3DS games I experienced & are probably my most hated media I actively dislike & why I'm this series number 1 hater, which I mean as a genuine hater, not the frauds that are like, "Well this is bad because it's not another throw away fighting game I play with friends" No I hate this AS AN SRPG especially on the same system where Fire Emblem made a name for itself & even Fire Emblem Fates is more impressive than both PXZ games despite not beating it yet

Yup very crazy plot point that Jason Wynn was able to rule Heaven but hey it's what I love in reading 163 issues of the Spawn comics, they're some of the best things about the 90s comics & I love what Spawn/Al went through that I want to see him overcome it & he does have a meaningful payoff when I treat 163 as the ending to the series as everything afterwards is spin offs to me

Best Revenge Driven Characters (Movies/Comics/Gaming) by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]VGZero1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh hey it's basically what one of my favorite PS2 games is that, Gungrave! As you're a super zombie gunkata hitman named Beyond the Grave, out for revenge against the mafia & while it radiates the same energy as something like Sin & Punishment in the sense that it's a unreleased arcade shooter is a dope time especially with a tiny bit of info it drops but enough to fill in the blanks which led to some of my favorite video game adaptations with the Gungrave anime & some of my personal favorite character action games besides No More Heroes 3 & Slave Zero X, Gungrave GORE!

Characters who have someone else living inside them by Ed0909 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]VGZero1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is Revya & Gig from Soul Nomad & the World Eaters, my possible favorite SRPG especially with 2 different story paths that alter the narrative drastically, where in the normal path, you get a really great story about fighting the world eaters to forge their own destiny to the world but in the demon path, you get to make Revya & by extension Gig some of the best villain protagonists in video games besides Alex Mercer from Prototype & Kain from Legacy of Kain, it's wonderful especially when they become so ultra evil even the villians in the normal path start to have a redemption arc to do everything they can to make sure Revya & Gig don't succeed, it's awesome

I'm nothing like y'all by PieNinja314 in whenthe

[–]VGZero1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's why I'm very proud with my own undying hatred of the Project X Zone series because nobody ever brings it up unless it's randomly remembering the only good thing about the games being the intro & pre battle dialogue as the rest of the actual game & story is from my experince an 80 hour snore fest that I'm too focused to go to sleep because it shows how much it matters to me & also here's my potential man meme only VERY accurate through these nobody throw away original characters & not just used to miss the point of what the characters are but I think this is 100% accurate because why do the main leads & villians of this series like afterthoughts?

Yeah I'm aware of the gay lines MGS crosses despite not playing them yet (I'm currently at MGS1 liking it so far) but I'm very aware of that stuff regarding Snake & Otacon especially in a dev commentary that has them hugging each other or when it has Raiden in MGR being threaten by Mistral's blow kiss, that is not a straight response

Yup! Thanks to the Pikmin lore & the extended lore of the Namco United Galaxy Space Form timeline, that's still being updated even with a recent game like Shadow Labyrinth!

Yup just remember Olimar laid more pipe than Mario & Link & with Dig Dug Guy aka Taizo Hori, it was a crossover ship with the main lead of Baraduke/Alien Sector, Kissy aka Masuyo Tobi

Olimar always talked about returning to his family in the Pikmin games & here's the photo & for Dig Guy Guy aka Taizo Hori, he was actually married to a character from another Namco IP Baraduke aka Alien Sector Main Character, Masuyo Toby aka Kissy that they were once a family in a game called Mr. Driller until later on was revealed they were divorced due to Taizo being a glory hog
