*muses* ^^ someone once told me that if it can be drawn here, then it actually exists - somewhere else; so is it the artist's genius that creates such characters, or is it like the film - Cool World, where the characters exist with or without the artist's vision? whether one admires or finds them to be cool, is there that much of a difference? |

While some people might try to be deep, a character is simply a work of art that is fictional. The characters indeed have a personality and in what defines a personality, it can be seen as being "alive" in its own unique way, but regardless, it is still the fiction that spawns from the mind of an individual(s) which created the character. Without that creativity and talent, nothing can ever come to exist. Indeed, for my sense of definitions, I find the word useages to convey different meanings. "Cool" is an incredibly vauge word, with multiple useages and because of that, it constitutes its self in many positive senses. To me, admiring something means that you have a great deal of respect for something. Indeed, one can have a great deal of respect for something because of a characters design or for whatever other reasons. I can partake in the beauty and brilliance of a characters design, but the admiration or respect that I have is for the talent and creativity that it took to create a character. Without that talent and creativity, there never would be characters of any sort to begin with. My respect or admiration goes to the creator, but but my eye for esthetics and design goes to the character. That's just my two cents of course. But, just to point out some characters, it would be Parappa the Rappa and Thomas from Suikoden 3. |

Locke and Celes, from Final Fantasy VI, they have both gone through so much. Locke, a failure to save a loved one, causes him to strive to do all he can for those who can do not. Celes, a manufactured product of an evil empire whos purpose was to serve, yet she cast asided those "chains" to fight for her heart and to fight for a world torn a part.
Link, I'm with Dorian on this one, WindWaker may be a good game, but it threw out all that was the N64 Zeldas, instead of improving on them. I must be one of the few who prordered WindWaker so I could get the Ocarina of Time disk. Still I view The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past as the best Zelda game in the series. |
