".........." -Your Favorite Silent Protagonist?

[dream's-epilogue]

You know the deal; heroes who, for whatever reason, never speak, yet somehow manage to be totally awesome.

Crono and Serge, of Chrono Trigger and Cross respectively, are both my favorites. They're both well developed as characters, and they never even speak, or at least you never hear them.

And, newly, Gordon Freeman of Half-Life fame.
-He kills things with a crowbar. He's that hard.
-He kills aliens. Lots of aliens.
-He has awesome facial hair.
-He's a mute science geek wearing a power suit.
-He's crawled through complex industrial machinery, escaped a trash compactor, traveled across an alien world, shattered TWO alien assaults on Earth (the Gene Worm and the Combine), and he's been erased from and returned to existence twice. And he's also apparently acquainted with Jesus's business-suit wearing brother (AKA the G-Man).

Proving conclusively that nerds are awesome.

What about you? Any mute heroes (or villians, for that matter) that you like?

1. Samus from the Metroid Series. Hot chick in a suit which shoots out laser beams? Nice!
2. Soap from COD4. didnt hear him speak at all but i still think he owns and hope he is in modern warfare 2!

 

[Empty Pot]

Link in the Legend of Zelda series.
Samus in Metroid.
Mario in the Mario series. I don't count the "mama mia!"s.

 

[Musashi ✖]

Amy Sorel in Soul Calibur III. All she says is "Amy" xD
And of Course, Link in the legend of Zelda Series. u.u

 

[Banjora Marxvile]

I wonder if Darth Nihilius counts... Sorry, that is villain, but he is my favourite silent villain (except the occasional Sith Speak, that is just mumbling)

Anyway... Silent hero... I'd say Link from Legend of Zelda.

 

[Pave Low]

Link from the Legend of Zelda

 

[Stellar]

Quote from Cavestory. Fitting name. xD

 

[Sakurah]

Souji from Persona 4.

Souji - Persona 4
Minato - Persona 3
Crono - Chrono Trigger
Gold - Pokemon
Red - Pokemon xP

Some others =P

 

[Corvus of the Black Night]

Felix from Golden Sun: The Lost Age. Personally one of the few characters that should be silent, not because he says stupid things, but because it actually suits his personality.

 

[Rokusasu]

Souji Seta/ Minato Arisato from Persona 4 and 3 respectively; they're both super-pimps. XD

 

[Lady Berlitz]

Link from The Legend of Zelda series, Mario from the Super Mario series (sort of), Koji Minamoto from the Digimon series (Digimon Frontier), Marcus Fenix from Gears of War (meh), and I guess there are a few others that I can't think of right now. :D

 

[Graceful]

Cloud - Final Fantasy VII
Yuna - Final Fantasy X
Terra - Final Fantasy VI

 

[Wulf]

Cloud - Final Fantasy VII
Yuna - Final Fantasy X
Terra - Final Fantasy VI

...What?

Anyhow, I agree with OP, Freeman was awesome.

 

[xxChazxx]

Gold from Pokemon.

Link from Legend of Zelda

Megaman from MegaMan 1-9

Mario from Super Mario Bros.

Paddle from PONG

Gordon Freeman from HL

 

[dream's-epilogue]

Cloud - Final Fantasy VII
Yuna - Final Fantasy X
Terra - Final Fantasy VI

Um...Cloud and Yuna both speak, so I don't think they can really count.

Terra FTW.

 

[JoltIce]

Link (Zelda is awesome!)
Mario (Kinda and it's awesome too!)
Red
Oh and Samus, yeah her.

 

[thedestinedblade]

Ryu - Breath of Fire II and III
Naoki - Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
Ninten - Mother
Riou - Suikoden II

Those are probably my favorite ones. Of course, you could add Serge to list as well.

 

[Klippy]

Can't go with anyone BUT Gordon Freeman. XD One of my favorite protagonists period. :3

 

[Amaruuk]

Gotta go with Link. I don't play too many games outside of Zelda (unless you count Pokemon and Mario), to be honest, but Link is just the bomb. Period.
