And Leon may or may not have boosted to boot. I'd pick Vault Boy over Kratos easily. Then again, I have that Sackboy > Kratos A upset. --- Not Wylvane |

Vault
Boy isn't a joke character; he's an icon for a series. My whole point
to getting him in was I felt he was the best proxy for Fallout 3 in a
character battle since the game isn't very strong with characters. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

L-Block
> WCC > Mudkip > Vault Boy. I think L-Block might be an
underdog pick to win, and WCC would breach 45%. I think Mudkip does
have some actual strength to him as well. I predict Missingno could be stronger than L-Block, but I'll wait until it faces Crono first before deciding where to put it. For all we know, it could bomb. I think it'll do pretty much the same on Crono as VB is doing on Leon right now, and that alone should probably be enough to put it over L-Block. --- Not Wylvane |

I think the point Leon's making is that all Western characters are joke characters. --- Not Wylvane |

Percentage losses are slowing down at least. Leon should start rising once we get out of the first hour. This is still pretty crap. --- :> |

From: LeonhartFour | #435 He's not there to be funny. He's there to be a staple of the franchise, with all your skills, items, etc held by him in the menu screen, since you are using the Pip Boy, which is made by Vault Tec, and he's the Vault Tec company mascot. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

From: LeonhartFour | Posted: 2/7/2010 12:28:41 AM | #435 In-game, Vault Boy kind of has a real role: he's the poster boy of Vault-Tec, the evil corp that built everything, and he's everywhere: the perks which you take show cartoony versions of the effects with him doing stuff, the bobbleheads that make you better at everything are built after him, etc. Basically, he has a lot of presence and embodies Fallout's spirit, compared to, say, Sandal. He might be a joke character, but he'd be a "serious" one with actual strength, like L or WCC. --- Placeholder anti-capslock sig. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/6/2010 9:32:06 PM | message detail |
From: Not_Wylvane | #443 Basically. No wait. Seriously, he's just a cartoon dude who gives a thumbs up with a cheesy smile, isn't he?

I
kind of question Missingno. The thing is a lot of people don't know
what a Missingno is, while everyone recognizes L-Block. It's
performance in the vote-in was very impressive, but still, he only got
15%, and it was a 12-way poll. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |
vcharon | Posted 2/6/2010 9:33:11 PM | message detail |
I
love the argument of if something has strength it suddenly isn't a
"joke character" anymore. Joke character is anything that's not
actually a character. --- :> |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/6/2010 9:33:31 PM | message detail |
I'm
honestly not trying to disparage Vault Boy at all. I've never played
Fallout before, and I didn't realize people took Vault Boy seriously. I
just kind of assumed he was a joke character because of his design and
the fact that he's just an icon. *shrugs* Learn somethin' new every day. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
