Videogame Character Part II
Posted by rorschachz on March 19, 2008
The character Koala chose seems to be pretty good. The guy has it all. BUT….The only problem is that Koala created him. Therefore, it’s easy to like the guy that you created. Kinda like cheating in a way J. Plus none of the readers can identify with this character as they are not familiar with him.
So I’m going to add my take on this age old question of “which character I would like to be”. First off, I had to think of the main criteria of the guy. Here’s a few of them:
- Badass
- Fighting ability
- Chicks
- Appearance
- The game has to be good
Cloud from FFVII was one of the first that came to mind. But he can be a little effeminate and too much of a pretty boy sometimes. Link is boring and looks like a pansy. The elf wears green tights?!?! I eliminated Master Chief and anyone else who uses guns cause I don’t like guns. Ultimately, I went with the lead character from one of my favorite games, Star Wars KOTOR…….Darth Revan
Badass? He’s the most powerful Jedi/Sith . Fighting Ability? He uses lightsabers and Force Powers! Chicks? He’s got a hot Jedi girl named Bastila. Appearance? Check the picture below. And finally, Star Wars KOTOR is a great game.
Now technically, he’s an evil character in the beginning, and then you play through it, choosing whether or not he becomes good in the end (Note: I made him evil). But either way, it doesn’t really matter. Darth Revan is the baddest man in videogames.
