ITT: post the most arguably iconic character of a video game franchise. Not the one you like the most, the one you KNOW is easily the most recognisable character of ALL the games. The one you can post and people will go "yeah, i recognise (x)"
I'll start, "SMT Persona"
Gavin Ortiz
Final Fantasy
Kayden Miller
Master Chef
Jayden Martinez
Revolver Ocelot
Lincoln Gray
What is this heresy?
Jayden Gomez
Test
Joseph Collins
...
David Williams
this one may be a bit tough... the series is pretty obscure.
Julian Flores
By far.
Camden Anderson
You know it to be true. I bet even if you ask people who havn't played Persona 4 who Chie is, they would say "i have seen her posted around"
Ian Young
no way fag.
Andrew Bailey
The most recognizable soulsborne character
Daniel Morales
If we're talking human characters, this is it for SMT. I'll only hear arguments for Demifiend, nobody else. If it's demons then it's for both SMT and Persona. Oh also Chie isn't really any more iconic than any of the other Persona 4 girls, Aigis is a lot more popular and well know. Back when I was relatively new to games I bought Persona Q because it had "the sexy robot girl I'd seen around the internet for years".
Jack Ortiz
chie is definitely more iconic than Aigis since P4 is also way more popular
Bentley Sanchez
Yeah, before getting into Persona I knew the P4 main girls and protagonist and maybe Aigis
Grayson Ortiz
Aigis is much more recognizable, all the P4 girls are equally popular with a relatively niche group but fucking everybody's at least seen Aigis. >t. formerly not part of that niche group and had never seen chie before but knew exactly who aigis was even when the only games i played were pokemon
William Gonzalez
Not even the most recognizable character in her own game.
You realize that before Pepe and Wojak took off, before ">tfw no gf" was a thing, there was bitches and whores posting, and Adachi was the posterboy. Not to mention all the ADACHI IS THE KILLER spoilerposting. I didn't get into Persona until around 2012, but I've known who Adachi is pretty much since the game was released.
Ian Harris
Took 8 fucking posts for someone to post this. I'm disappointed.
Jackson Jackson
It's something to do with Chie's colour pallete i think. I had seen her posted for years before playing Persona 4, and when i recognised her on the PS2 box in a second hand store she was the exact reason i picked it up to satisfy my curisoity.
Liam Perry
...
Matthew Miller
That's certainly iconic
Samuel Ramirez
Don't forget that persona waifufags used to be banned on sight because that shit was cringe compared to Adachiposting. Not sure why that stopped either.
Robert Harris
>tfw PQ is unironically my favorite Persona game and I know we will never get another one Why must everyone else have such shit tastes?
Nathan Lee
I got into the series because of interest who the hell is he. Chie is just another characther in sea of waifus.
Chase Robinson
just because he's the most popular on Sup Forums it doesn't make him the most iconic
Daniel King
Holy shit really? What would be the reason? Avatar-fagging?
Tyler Evans
PQ is better than both of the games it's a crossover of because unlike them it focuses on gameplay instead of being a social sim with randomy generated dungeons. Hopefully we get a P5 PQ someday.
Jackson Williams
Waifu faggotry aside, I think this would be the most iconic Persona character.
Jordan Myers
This. Just look at the tags on places like danbooru. Overwhelmingly Chie country.
Alexander Thomas
I'd love to get some kind of new PQ, or even an SMTQ. The gameplay was just so good aside from the instant death spells being way too strong. At least we will be getting EO5 later this year.
Xavier Ross
Too bad EOV is dub only. Playing games with voices off really takes the fun out of it but I can't suffer through another Atlus dub.
Joseph Harris
...
Evan Ward
Lightning is more popular though
Gavin Cook
...
Hunter Mitchell
OP here, damn it feels good to be a gangsta.
Xavier Martinez
Why is some ugly face plastered on what's supposed to be Chie's body?
James Miller
Its a shame because the Japanese audio is very good as well, I played it for a little bit, but my Japanese is pretty weak and if I'm going to get it in a few months I might as well just wait for the English release. Who knows though, maybe someone will undub it?
Kayden Lopez
...
Caleb Rogers
Really? Don't recall Lightning making it into a nintendo partygame with no realtion as a company to one of PSX's most iconic video games ever.
Juan Smith
I actually don't really know. This is just a shot in the dark.
Elijah Ortiz
literally who
Blake Reed
Better user?
Cooper Bell
much
Gavin Kelly
...
Samuel Powell
If there's one of these for Danganronpa it's him, right?
The only other contender is obviously Junko.
Leo Brooks
Taking the easy answer here
Evan Carter
Goddamit thread of all threads/
Nicholas Reed
Seriously?
Brandon Campbell
Ask any normie and they'll recognise Final Fantasy as the game with Cloud in, in same way they only know Zelda as OoT. FF7 had a fucking robot chicken sketch for max normie referencing. Don't be so dense.
Elijah Gray
Wouldn't that be the bear that's on the cover for these games?
Chase Morris
...
Luis Brooks
chrono trigger
Brayden Williams
PQ is quite literally just a shitty EO
Carson Carter
Still better than normal Persona.
Matthew Rodriguez
Not really
Tyler Peterson
Too bad PQ made all the characters caricatures of themselves to such a stupidly high level
Matthew Scott
Yes really.
Chase Ward
I'd lean towards CJ or Trevor/Michael/Franklin for GTA, since San Andreas and V sold a ludicrous amount in their respective gens, and by proxy are going to be the most recognizable among the most amount of people
Julian James
Toobie
Thomas Collins
EO doesn't even compare to Persona
David Cox
The only bad ones were Chie and Yukiko. Seriously, what the fuck did they do to Yukiko? She's a normal girl in 4 but a fucking psycho in Q.
Kayden Allen
Emil is more iconic anyone who says 2B is a waifushitter
Joshua Morgan
Persona 3 and 4 have fucking terrible, mindless, bottom of the gutter gameplay, so no, they aren't better than EO.
Julian Lopez
exit my presence
Isaiah Taylor
>All Yu, Makoto, Kanji, Ken, and Naoto say hi.
So what? I'd take another PQ over another mainline Persona game anyways.
>Yukiko >Psycho She was just teasing Chie and found the evil spirit club not that scary.
Christian Nguyen
Both are iconic user,no need to get mad
Jose Lee
>fucking terrible mindless bottom of the gutter gameplay Why are you describing EO? Seriously everything about EO gameplay is trash, I don't know how anyone likes it
Jordan Gonzalez
Dude mindless brainless garbage perfectly describes EO, it's a time filler
Sebastian Sullivan
Yes Monokuma is the most iconic by far. Also fuck hope.
Carson Anderson
...
Connor Martin
This
Liam Gonzalez
That's not even fair user, none of the other characters in the series could ever stand a chance
Dylan Jenkins
emil/taro beats her by a country mile
Kayden Taylor
...
Sebastian Butler
>Telecaster wtf is this bullshit
Mason Cooper
Wrong
Liam King
THE MEMES JACK Either that or armpits girl
Jace Davis
although I suppose AC isn't that popular
Ryan Torres
I've never played the game and I know him.
Blake Lopez
Try again
Kevin Thomas
That's not Tifa, she's fucking everywhere. Or Aeris because of meme value. Possibly, seeing everyone I know who doesn't play FF knows he's that guy from final fantasy. Nah.
Colton Turner
...
Camden Cooper
not even in his own game. Roman gets FAR more recognition thanks to memes.
Blake Martin
I think she is bigger than Ilias. Not by much, but I mean, does Ilias have a song?
Nicholas Cook
Take a guess
Liam Foster
You've got to be kidding. There are people who claim to be Souls fans who don't even know who Maiden in Black is, while there are tons of people who have never touched a Souls game who know about Solaire.
Julian Morgan
Waifufags don't think properly.
Wyatt Anderson
This, i don't give a fuck about ukemi-simulator #3245 but even i know who this sun faggot is
Tyler Johnson
Wait the sun dude is from Dark Souls? Don't know who the bitch the other guy posted is, but holy shit I can't believe I didn't know what this guy was from.
Owen Morales
...
Jace Stewart
Memes really help the popularity of a character. Most of the characters here have at least one.
Adachi is a meme himself what with the throwing women into TVs and all around attitude.
Persona 5 itself launched a shit ton of them.
Revolver Ocelot with his name being plastered all over and the "You're pretty good" guntwirling bullshit.
Literally in several games outside his series d
Praise the sun and jolly cooperation was really eaten up by the public
Roman "Lets go bowling" Belic
Cloud was in smash, and smashfags inflate the popularity of any character that touches it
Flandre's theme song was a massive meme that was remixed to hell and back
Touch fluffy tail
Was all due to porn
Landon Peterson
>Cloud was not famous before the unrealted party game smash made him famous
Holy shit kid
Jaxson Cook
Not him but I had literally never heard of him before he was announced for Smash.
Colton Johnson
I'm saying it threw him waaay over all the other characters. Smashfags are now exposed to him even if they never played FF, and there are a lot of smashfags.
Lucas Davis
If you played this game, this is the character that you would probably talk about the most.
Cameron Watson
...
Ethan Kelly
>and i present the "anti-normie"! This freak ladies and gentlemen doesn't even aknowldge video games exist! One of a kind!
Noah Harris
>Not even shown in the Warriors spin-off game previews (lol
Daniel Clark
King of Fighters/ Fatal Fury
Wyatt Martin
user, I know this is bait.
I just need to congratulate you for making me so angry regardless.
