Sephiroth - Final Fantasy VII
Andrew Ryan - Bioshock
Avery Johnson - Halo 2
Commander Shepard - Mass Effect
Darth Sion - Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II

There were some characters in some of these (like the Big Daddies from Bioshock) that I didn't really feel "contributed" to the actual story in their own rite (I won't spoil anything for those who haven't played it - but none of the Big Daddies actually had a personality. They had one goal, to protect the Little Sisters, and beyond that nothing mattered). Others I liked more than some characters on the list (like Cortana from the Halo series) but I felt like I should pick five different series. These are all in order from greatest to last, and frankly, anyone who doesn't have Sephiroth on their list never played anything from the FF series.

Darth Sion is the only known Force user to keep himself together via the Force. Google a picture of him; see all those cracks? Notice the grey skin? He's fought and "died" hundreds of times, but his sheer hatred and use of the Force keeps him together; he's in constant, agonizing pain. *SPOILERS* Ultimately, the Exile had to kill him by convincing him that he had to let go of himself and let himself die.*END SPOILERS*

I'll admit I have no Biblical basis for that choice. But he is, with the possible exception of Galba, the best character in my best deck.

In real life, he was far from my favorite. Slaughtering, selling to slavery... not my favorite. But at least he did more than Claudia. :p

I've played F3. I think I'm good on the violence.

I've had several people tell me to buy F3, but I never got around to it. I don't see how a FPS RPG would be as good as people make it out to be. If I'm playing a FPS, it's for the multiplayer, not some storyline they made to try to give it some sort of replay value if it has no multiplayer. Buuuuuuut, F3 may be different, who knows.  :P

Oh and...

@Janissary, yes, his character is pretty flat. But that is the type of character that I like. Someone who never falters. Also, I mainly like the graphics and action in video games, and in my opinion, he was BY FAR the coolest character in fire emblem, in terms of look, armor, and how he attacks. His critical with Armads = epic pwn. Although the wivern knights were pretty awesome... still don't get why they got rid of them. :dunno:

A better question wold be why they introduced them. They got dumped because they were created for the 8th game, Stones. Before that, htey were never a part of Fire Emblem.

Yeah... they were awesome units though. They're pierce is epic. Although if you pierced with a long range weapon, and then attacked again, your game glitched. :P

I've never used any in link arena. While completing the game, I found the knights to be better because of their speed, which was nice against most units, especially the dragon corpses. I'm not sure how either would match up in the link arena. I typically found better units who could support other better guys.  :)

For example, in the other fire emblem:
Hector
Lyn
Rath
Oswin
Matthew

Pretty much all of them can support each other. I can also sub matthew with guy, but I typically prefered Matthew.  ;D

Umm, dude, Falcoknight have more speed. Just saying. Wyvern Lords, I believe, had the same speed.

I'm rusty though, I don't play that game alot.
Title: Re: Your Top 5 Characters in any game?
Post by: lightningninja on July 05, 2009, 12:50:18 AM
Yeah, I was looking through my old games and was like, why not play throught his one again?

Falknonknights have 1 more speed, however knights they have at least (depending on which class your wivern knight came from) 25 attack and at least 22 defense, almost 50% more than falkonknights.

Lords have at least 2 less speed (and their natural tendencies don't make them even reach their full potential). yay for secret shops!

I just found the combination of the balance of the stats and the pierce ability, as well as who they supported to make a bigger impact on the battlefield. I'll go try leveling up some wyvern lords though.  ;)
