Post your favorite Vidya character designs
97 is nice too.
I'm a sucker for clone characters.

Metal is by-and-large the most interesting character design in the series. I love the giant turbine torso.
This guy. Too bad it'll never see the light of day

All of theclassicSonic characters have amazing designs imo. Though SA1 Sonic is still my favorite.

>couldn't keep the capes for BBS
>didn't add them into 2.5HD
KH3 pls.
Outta the way, you peasants: pimp Garland coming through.
-it's a shame there's no clear version yet-
FFIV bias is heavy for me, the designs still are badass to this day. I should replay the CC sometime.
>>342924728
I prefer his original design.
I've always loved Toriyama's art and I don't get why people shit on it.
>>342928362
>Goku
>Vidya character
almost had me fooled
Classic Uka Uka is an amazing design, and I'm only posting the modern version because fuck you that's why
Loved this guy, both his regular form to his Resident Evil knockoff to his final form which SEGA tried to ape until colors.
Helps that he's based on best Godzilla monster
.hack//IMOQ has god tier character designs.
>>342928736
kek, never gets old
>>342928362
what the fuck why goten has red hair
>>342924728
>>342925056
What happened to the guy who did these designs? Did he disappear or succumbed to anime style
FF used to look amazing
>>342927705
Probably the most original MC ever created. Everybody wants to play a good looking guy/hot girl.
>>342928362
Yeah, they're great. Especially CT and DQ 3-6.
>>342928958
The absolute best.
>>342929303
Nomura took over starting with FF7, Amano only does the logo designs now.
>>342928362
Could it be because of sameface or something? Personally, I think Toriyama is absolutely god-tier (or used to be) and I'm very picky.
>>342929303
Yoshitaka Amano, SE are dumb fucks and let him go
>>342928762
>Resident Evil knockoff
huh, now that you mention it...The Chaos emerald should've been on his chest for maximum lawsuit effect
>>342928362
It was cool the first few times it was used but goddamn did it get old fast. I can't wait for ol' Tori to die so he can take the style with him.
Shame this design doesn't have a game to go along with it.
>>342929417
>Could it be because of sameface or something?
But that includes over 90% of gook artists, why single Toriyama out?
I know most people hate it but I love Bowser's in game model in Mario 64. Looks so damn charming.
>>342928958
That's around the same level of cringe as any of Nomura's shit.
>>342929408
Looks like a bog-standard fantasy game that relies way too much on sex appeal.
>>342929709
Love that giant head of his. Makes throwing him around all the more hilarious.
>>342927373
Me too.
>>342929865
Papa nier, best papa.
I always enjoyed the designs in this game.
>>342929494
why does his balding hairline tron bonne ingame when it looks rad in promotional art
>>342930106
What about oni-chan nier?
>>342930185
>>342928762
You're the first person I've ever seen who thinks Biolante is the best Godzilla rival.
Why do people dislike that movie? It's literally a perfect Godzilla movie.
>>342929865
Really hoping he at least has a similar personality to Cloud Then in the remake.
That said I doubt it.
Still hype about xv though. Really like seeing traditional summons again. Ramuh was always one of my favorites, design wise.
>>342929865
>Hear about how Cloud is such an emo drag all these years
>Finally play FF7 expecting a protagonist with Ow the Edge times infinity
>Cloud turns out to be a hilarious smartass with alot of heart that only acts emo when he gets mindfucked
>"Well that's not really fair. Why do people call him emo so much?"
>Watch/Play the spinoffs
>"oh....."
It's a shame what happened to Cloud's character after FF7
>>342930409
Advent Children Cloud is dying of space cancer. It makes sense he'd be mopey.
>>342928362
>>342929408
>tfw liked Mimiru better
>>342924728
she's so fuckin cool
Yeah; at least, appearancewise, they finally fixed him in the new Dissidia.
I swear, i shed a tear when i saw him finally smiling after all these years.
>>342930402
Well if the Brotherhood anime is anything to go by he's going to be more similar to Squall.
>>342930409
>Hear of Leon Kennedy in RE4
>"Crawl in your skin my man"
>Finally play RE4 expecting a protagonist with Ow the Edge times infinity
>Leon turns out to be a smarmy wisecracker with alot of heart that only acts dumb tbqh
>"Well that's not really fair. Why do people call him emo so much?"
>his hair
>"huh....."
though I never played the sequels, maybe he becomes True Emotional
Eggman AKA Dr. Robotnik from the Sonic series has one of my favorite designs
>>342924728
>>342930409
nothing happened to cloud's character after ff7 as years-later japshit not involving original staff is not canon.
>>342930748
Damn you are delusional
>>342930748
>not involving original staff
Oh anon, you're just so...
>>342930726
Are his balls part of his stomach?
>>342930690
Assuming it's gonna be like Brotherhood. It's certainly possible, even likely, but I really hope not.
This design is perfect. Prove me wrong.
>>342930645
>Ruby Heart will never be in another videogame for the rest of time
>>342927537
That portrait change when hebecomes Draculais fucking awesome
>>342931182

It's only second best to Ken
she's just perfect
>>342932129
>Hey guys do you know what would help us in the coming war?
>What
>If our ship's incredibly advanced ai disconnected from the ship, found a gun and did the exact same job literally anyone with an ounce of military training can do
>>342932706
It giving Joker a lapdance would improve his moral
>>342924728
>>342932706
yeah I never played past the first game but why wasn't she just some advanced robot for Shephard to field test and not the ships AI
so weird that the ship would be given a character like that
>>342931820
JESUS CHRIST-
Pepperouchau, also one of my favorite character names
hey, I just randomly realized that the dog song from undertale is stolen from the first stage music in this game.

woopsie
Love the artwork from Lufia 2. It became far too anime with the remake. Also the remake itself was shit.
>>342933657
>It became far too anime with the remake
they culturally don't know how to do anything else anymore, it fucking sucks.
>>342933451
No, it sounds sort of similar, but it isn't the same.
I'm a sucker for Kunihiko Tanaka's character designs, shame they didn't really translate well in game though
>>342932408
Fine tasteHrist is better
>>342929435
Amano never worked at Square to begin with. He also didn't design the characters in FF1-6. The only thing he did was promotional artwork of the characters where he just drew them disregarding their actual in game designs that were already done by other artists and he drew them how he interpreted them. The only thing he designed that showed up in the games were his monster designs for FF1-4. Nomura did monster designs 5-8.
Kazuko Shibuya and Koichi Ishii did the actual in game character designs for FF1-5, Nomura did some in 5 like Gilgamesh and Exdeath, Nomura and Shibuya did the in game character designs for 6, then Nomura did 7, 8, 10, Hume, Elvaan and some antagonists in 11, main cast of 13, Type-0 and 15 while Ferrari did sub characters in Type-0 and 15.
>>342930690
By the game he's basically a mix of zack, bartz and Balthier. He's arrogant always charging head first into danger regardless of his actual strength, he's always making smart ass remarks and gets shit thrown at him, and he enjoys the thrill of adventure in the outer world after having lived a closed off sheltered life in the city.
>>342924728
Easily my favourite mech design of all time.
