Who was the better protag?

Who was the better protag?

Neither.

uh is this a joke
lightning obviously

FFXV is better to judge the main 4 as a group than single them out even though one is a muh prince.

Noctisa hands down ass up. Lightning was boring as fuck.

my dick in your mouth

Lightning, easily.

In the end I think they both suffer from being less interesting than the people around them and neither of them I ended up giving a shit about.

all ff protags are boring or bad, why does lightning get so much shit

Noctis was much more likeable and relatable.

Lightningfags are the worst waifufags too. They'll probably shit up this thread soon.

>why does lightning get so much shit
>ugly
>flat
>female protag so auto shit

xv actually had likable characters but if we're just judging the two, lightning is better

Because despite her game being extremely unpopular and her character also being disliked at first Square deemed it necessary to force her down everyone's throats and make her the poster child of the franchise when she represents one of its worst games. They even made her a literal God at one point.

Noct had a proper character arc

Lightning was the better fashion model of that's what you're asking.

Hard choice. List legendary FF mc was Tidus though

Ramza was the only good one

Noctis because I hate female protagonists

Both of them are the same character archetype

noctis because he has actual emotions, flaws, and character development.

the characters in ffxv are literally the only good thing about the game

Noctis is the only correct answer.

Noctis

Not even close

Noctis because he actually grows as a person unlike Lightning who has literally zero personality throughout THREE FUCKING GAMES.

Can you get more Mary Sue than lightning?

>literally a goddess

Lightning

Literally anything is better than Lightning

Noctis

>noctis grow
>my father died
>baww for 5 minutes
>proceed as usual
>luna dis DEAD
>2 cutscene later
>proceed as usual
>I am actually an enemy supersoldier clone
>whatever
>proceed as usual
>time skip
>proceed as usual

nether both are shit.

Lightning, no contest

Clearly Noctis.

Both absolute shit tier.

>not choosing the waifu
jesus fucking christ user are you gay? Lightning is literally 10/10 waifu material, 11/10 with her sister.

>waifu material
>skinny fuccboi body
>dull personality
>literal sue

The only thing she has going for her is her face. Pretty much garbage tier in every other category. Serah on the other hand, is a different story.

A tsundere is never a good protagonist.

her face is perfection. I literally could not give a shit about her ingame body and character. All that matters is the face and clothes for the doujins and skyrim sex mods.

pfffffft

Is she the protagonist? I thought self proclaimed made scientist was.

Mad not made, sorry.

>female protag
automatically trashed

its easy to understand why noctis does what he does. lightning on the other hand what a shitshow.

He's the main character the player see the story through

noctis

This. /thread

I play as the gender I am IRL, which is the way God intended it.

If you play as a girl in games while being a guy irl you are a gigantic faggot and I would like to personally come to your house with a 12 inch knife and slowly cut off your dick and slice you the vagina you wanted before carelessly cutting you in half, still alive, bring you to the meat factory I work at, and toss your screaming upper torso into the active meat grinder and watch you become mince meat, then i'll make a good burger out of it and sell it to your family and watch them eat it

It's not worth it. Play as your gender in games.

anyone>lightning.

Noctis is the single best protagonist in the history of FF.

Also one of the best Jesus figures in video games in general.

user I think you're just a bit more fucked in the head then some sissy faggot who wants to be a girl

I understand his frustration though, I feel the exact same way

I get this is just baiting for replies, but kind of silly to use "god intended it this way" and then say how you want to kill people, don't you think?

Thou shalt not kill is literally the word of god.

Apart from that, okay copypasta, it's not long enough though.

>calling Beyond Good and Evil trash

So you would even avoid playing say Bayonetta because the protag you control is a girl?
You two are massive faggots.

...

Fuck you commie, my god love guns

Pretty much anything is better than Lightning.

Lightning had 3 games to develop as a character so the answer is obvious.

However, they're both really bad compared to original FF protags like Cloud or Squall.

Lightning, for obvious reasons.

>Squall
wtf

>So you would even avoid playing say Bayonetta because the protag you control is a girl?

Yes, DMC is the superior series with male protags

Tbh this, nobody is as cool as dante

How could you say that for sure if you avoided playing bayonetta

Noctis is the better MC, in fact he's a MC for FF that i've actually cared about for a long time.

Toriyama needs to be banned from making videogames.

I have to ask. Do you also refuse to play females in fighting games, MOBAs, Overwatch, and other character-select competitive games?

Of fucking course, it's especially revulsing in multiplayer games, fag

Lightning had no personality traits other than "frigid cunt."

Noctis. He is boring but nowhere near as annoying as Lightning.

Now I get it. You self-insert in games, and think everyone else does the same thing, don't you? It all makes sense why you are so mentally damaged.
You have a problem - go seek help.

Lightning. She was kinda nice in a single game out of five (LR), I've encountered her.

>Beyond Good and Evil
wow, okay?! I don't want to play some 2017 social commentary game about women in journalism. it's overdone, just leave shit out. thank you.

>2017
what

Yep
Self insert?
No I play as who I want to be, I don't want to be a woman.

That's basicaly what it means

Lightning has a personality unlike Noctis.

No self insert means putting yourself in the game like a fucking autist.

The Fabula Nova Crystalis bullshit has stolen about 10 years from one of the most beloved franchise in video games.

Can we get over this disaster and move on to FF16 please? The one with the chick that was running away from something IIRC. Or will we have to wait a decade for this too?
