    Amicia is the definition of a child thrust into adult responsibilities far too soon, and witnessing her journey to protect Hugo throughoutA Plague Tale: Innocence and Requiem can be painful to bear. Yet, feeling pain for the fate and role of a character shows how well they pull that off. Amicia's role as Hugo's protector is elevated in this year's ...

    Glenn is a character defined by his mistakes, and all too often, his mistakes inChained Echoes are disastrous for everyone around him. Instead of throwing in the towel though, he is hellbent on righting his wrongs. The game isn't afraid to let him fail, time and again, but he dusts himself off, gets back up, and tries again. He's not a simple self-...

    The narrative ofElden Ring is one that can be difficult to parse together, especially given the game's "show; don't tell" approach, but that allows players to invent their own interpretations in a way. This is done by how players meet and understand the various characters of Elden Ring, and Ranni is no exception. In fact, she may be the definition ...

    While someone could throw a dart in God of War Ragnarok and find an interesting character, the fact remains that it is Atreus' story, and he leads it well. Grown, mostly, now from the annoying kid fans meet in God of War, Atreus sets out on a journey of self-discovery, one that so happens to coalesce with stopping Ragnarok. His heart is always in t...

Coming hot off the Greek games,God of War (2018) showed that a more mature and wise Kratos had a place in the upper echelons of gaming. God of War Ragnarok takes all of that and puts it to the test, with Kratos dominating every scene he's in. ...

    Sometimes the best characters aren't those who lead a game, but those who support the player through the good and bad. Brother Piero is that character in Pentiment. His eternal support for protagonist Andreas Maler, the wisdom of his years, and his understanding of the changing world around him mean that every time he speaks, players just want to l...

    The either male or female protagonist of Sifu may not have a name, nor do they speak much, but the journey they take players on is an emotional and somewhat spiritual one. Players will learn of their close relationship with Yang, seek to take vengeance on him, and learn throughout it all about the concept of Wude. Player choices, actions, and maste...

    Characters don't have to be human to elicit an emotional response from players, and from the moment the main cat of Stray falls into the city below, players are invested. They are able to live out their cat-like dreams by knocking over NPCs, knocking stuff off of shelves, and meowing whenever they sit fit, for whatever reason that suits them. The s...

    Caught in a cycle, the Dragon Lord at first appears to be Tiny Tina's most evil creation, one that has grown legs and challenged her role as Bunker Master time and again. His quest to conquer the Wonderlands is thwarted, constantly, by Queen Bull Stallion and her heroes, but learning of his motivations, his background, and more show how this partic...

    As one of Xenoblade Chronicle 3's playable characters, Noah's personality, self-exploration, and understanding of war make for a compelling story. His interpretation of a war he is compelled to take part in, as well as his feelings regarding the opposing Agnians, show how complicated such situations are. His ability to stand by his ideals, keep a k...

    • The Quarry. Supermassive’s spiritual follow-up to Until Dawn is another triumph for horror gaming. Paying homage to the summer camp horror movies of the ‘80s, The Quarry features a group of camp counselors who decide to have one last hurrah before packing it in for the summer—only there’s a curse over the lands and a werewolf prowls the night.
