Favorite of each VG trope

[𒈟Lavemu𒐫]

Video games have some tropes shared throughout pretty much every game, the tropes I can think of is Protagonist, Antagonist, and enemies!(though these tropes are often in movies and books as well) who are your favorite characters for these tropes, what makes them your favorite? here's mine!

Protagonist

Spoiler:

Pit just seems like a really good protagonist in my opinion, he has a ton of personality, looks really cool, all that I really want from a protagonist really.
Antagonist

Spoiler:

I always enjoy a good goofy villain and I think Wily has a good balance of goofiness and seriousness, not too serious but really goofy, love those kind of villains!

Enemy

Spoiler:

Kind of a tough one for me but I tend to like more mechanical enemies, bomb-omb, crazed sign, and mettaur get an honorable mention here. But i decided to go with the Tsunderplane here just because personality is a big factor for me and tsunderplane definetly had the most of the 4 i was debating. also I love goofy things and a literal tsundere airplane is just funny lol

Hmmm. To make things much less complicated, I'm going to avoid picking 'OC's or characters like Shepard in Mass Effect that have a lot of room for personal creativity on the part of the player with how those characters act. Instead, I'll only be picking from 'pre-set' characters like Mario, for example, that have a 'canon' personality and rarely, if ever, let the player take any liberties with how they're interprited. I'll also mention that these are less 'absolute favorites' and more 'really high on the list that I can't really pick 1 from' lol.

Protagonist:

Spoiler:

For protags, I've gotta note my boy Sly Cooper. An honorable thief who only steals from other thieves. He's funny, charismatic, and loves his friends. What more does a good protag need? :p

Antagonist:

Spoiler:

The antagonist for the game "Radiant Historia", though saying more here would spoil the thread maker, so I've put why in a separate spoiler.

Spoiler: DO NOT READ if you intend to play the game yourself. MASSIVE SPOILER.

Heiss the spymaster, user of the book that can change time, The Black Chronicle.
He acts as a mentor to the Protagonist, and knows his student's fate better than anyone. But what makes him so well done is that he isn't fully evil, he was just dealt a shit hand in life...

Enemy:

Spoiler:

This one is less of a specific enemy and more of a 'type' of enemy. That being the 'hero's reflection' or anything that makes the player fight against a mirror of either the protag themself, or the whole party depending on the game. It's always been a very cool concept to me, and it's fantastic when a game does it well.
