Hardest life out of all the DQ Heroes.

What is Hollow Knight?

What's the fucking point then?

Because it's A RUSE

You can betray your bud and become living gods capable of LITERALLY FUCKING the Princes, but they have something else.

Experience.

>chosen one is the dumbest and weakest character to make dumb kids feel like they can be important too

Skyrim is the worst offender of this trope I have ever seen in my life

fuck off. I miss in oblivion where, I mean the emperor dreamed of you but otherwise you were a no one amd had to build your way up. Skyrims story is everyone jacking you off and handing you their organizations.

>your father is the chosen one

Kinda started with Shivering Isles what with becoming Sheogorath.

good narrative
bad game

Swear to god, this has to be the movies's fault, because it's retarded.

Please tell me this is an actual game

love games like this, every little accomplishment really feels earned. anyone else?

Maybe because literally everyone in the book thinks Harry is the only one who can defeat Voldemort and his arch-rival even though there are a bunch of more skilled wizards that could do a better job.
And the propechy wasn't worthless, it's just that it isn't about Harry being the only one strong enough to beat Voldemort, it's about him being the last Horrcrux that must be destroyed. That's why he has the "power" to defeat him and why the prophecy says one must die at the other one's hand.

Every SMT ever.

Good enuff for me

THOTS

Eh if the chosen one actually dies, wouldn't that mean he wasn't actually the chosen one? just saiyan

Shujinko from Mortal Kombat Deception. Also Link from Wind Waker.

i was thinking shadow of war but frodo does eventually come

And real life.

Oh. Thanks anyway user.

Just came up with that post because I thought it was a neat idea. It's up to you now to make the game.

Sucker!

Don't have the talent nor the force of will.

But you're the Chosen One

or maybe he's only thought to be and we have to wait for the chosen one. What if I'M the chosen one... or you?

this user
Asked first, so he is actually the chosen one :^)

>you're the chosen one
>some kid is the chosen one
>rando priestess is a chosen one
>mid-demon is a chosen one
>final boss is more chosen than all of you
>you don't know you're the wrong kind of chosen one until the end

Brutal legend?

>Everyone has to Freaky Friday around to get into the right Chosen One positions

I kinda think being the chosen one, but not in your current dimension could be fun and end in a bitter sweet ending since nobody would know you saved da world, since it would be in another dimension and they have to take you back so everybody still doesn't give a single fuck about you.

>shadow of war
fuck that

>you're the chosen one
>to DESTROY the world

Name 5 games that do this

>the Chosen One is coddled and pampered by all the believers of the prophecy since birth
>grows up to become a spoiled brat who is powerless when shit hits the fan
>you have to train him to become strong and responsible enough to fit and fulfill the role

1: I
2: Pulled
3: It
4: Out
5: Ofmyass

>you are said to be the chosen one
>You are not the chosen one
>in reality your bumbling comic relief bro-companion is the real chosen one

off

Name.of.the.game.

Last kingdom?

Poor Guts

Not that user, but Soul Nomad's Demon Path is the exact definition of this.

I know everybody will hate me but undertale

Dark Messiah

Wish I knew myself, user. This is just something I thought would be a pretty neat story.

That wasn't like Skyrim's stuff. Oblivion still let you become the guildmaster of everything, champion of the empire, champion of the arena, and Sheogorath. However, none of those give any indicator that you will be "chosen" for it or anything. The player just happens to be the guy in the right place at the right time, combined with completing all the normal grunt work everyone else in the guilds have to do. Even becoming a daedra, you really have to work your way up the court ranks to be in the right position when Sheogorath chooses a successor. When you first meet him, he treats you like just another scrub.

Well you can imagien that you are doing it in monster rancher. Kinda.
Gotta train your monster to beat the tournaments, so yeah.

...

You can't literally destroy the world in FFTA, or can you? am I missing something

>You are the chosen one

Thorgal never got respite.

stop

DragonFable.

So "real life"?

I like the whole chosen undead thing. If you're undead, you're a chosen one. Most undead won't make it but throw enough of them into doing a task one undead is bound to eventually succeed

>You're a super special person that gets reborn every time you die
>Try to use your powers to make an ideal world
>Every time you try, a team of warriors rises up to defeat you
>After countless tries you use your meta knowledge to manipulate every possible variable until there is no way you can lose
>You accidentally end up creating a new chosen one to beat you because the universe has already decided that you must lose

>the villain is the chosen one seduced by evil

you guys need to stop describing my life
