Are these the most universally loved vidya characters ever?

Where's Crash? Chads love Crash.

Poor man's Sonic

>>only zelda with any fucking personality

there are people who hate Sonic because of his attitude and fanbase... can't make this shit up if I tried

>brings up something not even on the list

are you blind?

Replace Sephiroth with Kirby, Pikachu, or Donkey Kong and you're probably right

>autismos on Yea Forums represent the general public

Do people really like sephiroth as a character or do japs just like his character archetype? He's a fairly run of the mill villain, all things considered.

Everyone loves Sephiroth, he was voted a top 10 video game character every year from 2002-2011, and was added into the internet gaming HOF

But why? Final Fantasy 7 is in my top 3 favorite games of all time, and I don't find anything super special about him. All the one winged angel crap really annoys me, actually.

sure they do

every edgelord can relate to him

Fuck you, I like Sephiroth

>immediately loses her personality when she becomes zelda

He's the Broly of video games (and that's a good thing)

What you like != the most universally loved

>I paid no attention whatsoever to anything that was going on

But nobody actually hates Sephiroth, they just complain about his popularity

>no Kirby
>no tails
>no cute goat friend
>no saber
>no zero two
>no k k Slider
Ewww

Stop using jew nose Zelda. LTTP is the most iconic one now.

I hate Kirby

I hate sephieroth. He's a broody bitch all through ff7 and he's pure cringe in every game after ff7, fuck sephiroth; fall into another mako stream.

t. Cloud
Get back in your wheelchair

When people say characters, what do they mean? half of these have no personality whatsoever, so what's the appeal? the design? the quality of their game? that doesn't really talk about the quality of the character itself does it?

I would play as wheelchair cloud if the game would let me.

>defend in the very fight fight
>sephiroth dies to a normal counterattack

Nothing personnel

>Sephiroth and Snake over Pikachu and Pac-Man
Is this a joke?

>Nintendo characters most people don't give a fuck

Tone down the Nintendo Bonus pal, Mario is the only one there people really cares about.

Where's Pikachu? Lara Croft? Sub-Zero / Scorpion? Ryu / Ken / Chunners?

>Literally all Japanese games
really roast the almon-oh forget it

I'm actually kinda mad, why can't the West make genuinely iconic vidya characters? It's not like the west incapable of making well loved and iconic characters in other mediums (Batman, James Bond, Spongebob, Snoopy ect)

What are we doing wrong? Why are the most recognizable and "iconic" western made character from the past decade either the Rabbids or Indie shit?
Why?

And before anyone says anything. Go ahead and try to name some iconic western characters that were made within the past 10 years and have stayed relevant

>sub zero/scorpion

Those characters are only icons of how shitty western fighting games are. All the ninjas were pallette swaps of each other for like 4 whole games.

>made in last ten years
>iconic
>newest character on the op image is probably cloud/sephiroth, who started more than 20 years ago

you forgot the pokechu

I'm making a point here user. Even if you extended the time table, the most truly "iconic" character that is still just as relevant today I can think of is Master Chief and maaaaaybe Kratos

Lol mario's dabbing

Where's pikachu and white guy holding gun?

fuck kirby faggot

>says all this shit while forgetting ST Zelda and WW Zelda exist
Good to know you're not even familiar with the other games in the series.

Doom Guy
Lara Croft
Dovahkin (wow that game is old)

Relevance is because the characters in the op keep getting games. Maybe the west doesn't do that so much because of legal bullshit and just getting tired of characters. The characters I listed have been under the control of the same company for long enough to have survived to be relevant.

If we’re going with “loved” over “recognizable” then Snake still deserves to be there. I understand that the former is more vague than the latter though.

No. The most loved vidya characters are probably:
Pikachu
Kirby
The Judge

mate, you know that the first time you actually meet sephiroth(excluding the cloud flashbacks) is on disc 3 right?

I'd say it's because of his boss fight
