ITT: Name great characters stuck in bad vidya

DODGE this!

So many great characters completely wasted on a shitty MOBA IP because Riot's an incompetent company that can't do anything interesting or expansive outside of their stupid esports shit.

>implying every single LoL character is great
this is one hell of a wrong opinion. At least half the characters are just walking overused tropes or just plain bland (Ahri, Caitlyn, Darius and Garen being prime examples of both of these problems)

literally a nigga from harry potter

>he didn't read the Darius comic

He's more interesting now.
The rest are still pretty shitty though.
Either way I agree that pre-2013 champions were bland as fuck. But they started picking up in 2013.

When the fuck are they doing a Runeterra MMO, or something else set in the same universe as LoL? RPG, cartoon, whatever.

>from fgo
yikes!

I did not read it because it was a comic about fucking Darius. Is there anything to it other than "war war war muh bro draven war war"?

Speaking of FGO

Man, you could have picked far better examples than that. Shit like Nidalee and Zyra are far lamer.

How is anything you just said a criticism of the character though?

Looking back it's impressive that League even tried to have big cohesive lore all the way through the first 100 characters when they were coming out like every two weeks

The cuck writer hates him because the VA improv'd a lot of his lines and he became more popular than the cuck writer's other characters.

christ in a handbasket that is NOT how cunny or underwear works!!!

Almost every single thing from Evolve. I'm really sad that game killed itself with microtransactions out the ass and so little content on release.

remember when they released azir a solid 3 months before he could be played properly and oh also deleted half the lore -again-? or when varus was a cool character with real motivations and is now literally just a couple of fags?

He was so cool

literally ripping off of that character in bioshock

They trademarked an IP called Legends of Runeterra some several months ago, so we know they're working on something. But it probably won't be an MMO because it's too much of a financial risk and the genre's pretty much dead or established either way.

I love Kass!

How would this play? Something similar to hitman? Would you have to worry about alerting champions that operate in the area of your target while being constantly on the run from zed and his goons?

Probably something like a mix of Hitman and Dishonored.

Jhin is trash and I have never encountered anyone that likes Jhin that wasn't an idiot or a twat.

FGO has way cooler characters than Shuten-Douji.

Going fast and slapping people to death is the most fun thing to do in League. I actually prefer Warwick though, Shyvana is a runner up.

>don't know anything about his past other than the fact that he was a serial killer and his dad owned a dojo that went out of business
>don't know much about his motivations other than the fact that he's addicted to murder and thinks death is pretty
>all we know right now is that he's now a hitman for the Ionian council who's trying to mess with Zed and Shen on the side

That's it.
Sure Riot could expand on his psyche and all the mental issues he's probably got under that mask of his, or why or how he became as fucked up as he is, but they won't because their Chink overlords won't allow it. They were even forced to edit his original short story and remove some of his original VO lines because it was too disturbing. You can't tell a good crime detective/serial killer story if they can't even show what his murders look like, and knowing Rio'ts shit lore team, they're gonna botch him when the Zed comic gets released.

Amazing voice acting and fun as fuck to play though.

Leagues of Legends is a great PC game imo; easy to get in with a very high skill ceiling. Sure it's dated but I wouldnt call it a bad game. Character design for most characters is also really good.

This is the internet, uninformed opinions are the norm.

> what is comic series
The only champ that has a real comic series so far is Ashe, and it feels kinda rushed and half-assed so far. Lux and Zed are getting longer comic series though, so we'll see how that turns out.
> what is lore pages
Shit that most people don't bother to read because most people don't like reading.
> what is videos, cinematics
BS that barely delves into the lore and doesn't have any actual dialogue shared between the champions, it's just them versing each other and shit
>what is music
Gives you an idea of what the champ's personality is like but that's it.
>what is pages of story
Shit that most people don't bother with since the lore never really moves forward anyway or it just gets retconned 6 months later.

Riot made did something write by partnering with Marvel to make comics, but it still isn't enough. They need to make a new game already.

Broken as fuck piece of shit. Decent idea tho.

It's shit lad. Only worth because f2p, otherwise is at its core a dead game with identity issues.

Game where you play as giant monsters when?

90% of these are walking cliches, just like League's whole roster

Seething capitalist drone

The microtransactions were unobtrusive and purely cosmetic, it was public perception, largely fomented by people like you here on Yea Forums, that killed it on PC before it even had a chance to live. The real problem with the game is that its main multiplayer mode was designed, inadvertently, to fail. They were content with buffing hunters and nerfing monsters whenever possible because they viewed it as a net gain, player wise, as they only needed to retain one fifth the playerbase to play the monster but four fifths to play hunter. Turns out that planning to fail actually makes you fail.

Not an argument. They're pretty fun, good characters and not muh e-sport competitive aimed char, and more importantly; not retardedly broken and without minigames.

I liked playing as the hunters actually. I preferred it to playing the monster. It was quite thrilling playing as the English game hunter and holding a monster with his harpoon. You had to play him as always like opposite half your team, so you had to have really good boost management so you wouldn't get mollywopped by the monster once he realized you were a much more vulnerable target than the others.

At higher levels of play, especially with a premade, hunters were fun as fuck.

Basically this thread is saying League of Legends is amazing cause they know good character design.
Thanks guys, gonna buy more RP. :)

>Not an argument.
You're right, it was a (true) statement.

Wow you two must be illiterate
>Too bad her game was tainted by persona tier friendshit and over the top edgy bullshit.

It was the biggest disappointment of the series, at least persona doesn't pretend to not be about friendshit. This was a bullshit bait and switch where not following the devs favorite ending made you evil.

Nigga Vi is wack but your suggestions are too. Hell most older versions of characters are flat out worse than their updates outside of Fiora.

"Freedom" is "Kill anyone that gets in the way of your goal" because Dagda can revive everyone anyway.

Being stuck in a pretentious David Cage game is a horrible fate that Connor doesn't deserve.

You get your superpowers from making friends with every random asshole you meet. Even in 3.

Except the people who get left behind because shesha didn't kill them and your "friends" whose soul you permanently murder for no reason at all. Even asahis if you don't pick her.

Mate I didn't even write the first post. I just pointed out how people on this site cannot seem to read a full sentence. Sort of like you're doing seeming now ignoring that the quote has
>persona tier friendshit
as a statement.

SMT4A is either full on friendship dicksucking, or edgy "kill everyone boyo", and that's the fucking cherry on the shit writing and characters which is SMT4A.

Connor's arc was the only good thing from that game.
It had the best supporting cast too, Hank was a great side-character.

Cage will find a way to fuck him up in the DLC though.

>Shitting on Raiden

I just hope there will never be a DLC or sequel. As much as I'd love to see him and Hank again, I know Cage would ruin it. I doubt he even understands why Connor is the most liked character by far.

please fucking tell me nobody actually uses these terms in the community.

He is shit but he is nothing like the Joker. He does appeal to the same batch of retards though.

Star Wars has a habit of trashing its good villains for some reason. Grievous was really well done story-wise and was treated well in the first cartoon as well, and then he finally shows up in the movie only to get clowned by Samuel L. Jackson and later Obi Wan and dies like a bitch having accomplished nothing, he was made into a completely pointless character and honestly could have been left out of the films entirely.

That planet eater guy from Kotor 2 was pretty bad. He basically does nothing.

>hulk hands that should be too heavy for her to lift

Detroit's biggest misstep aside from the obvious that was everything about Kara's story (aside from casing a qt3.14) was not letting you go full "We're not just equal to the humans, we're BETTER and they should be exterminated" Sigma on Marcus' campaign. Instead it was just robot MLK or robot Malcom X.

Yeah, that also would've been a great opportunity to give Markus anything that would resemble a personality. He was so fucking bland.
Sadly they were so far up their ass with their ROBOTS GOOD, HUMANS BAD "message" and they were probably to scared to do that.
