I
might even play DQV if it has a big amazon price drop again. The
P3&4 silent protagonist trio are my favorite silent protagonist, but
then again there aren't a whole lot I really care about anyways. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
PSI_NESS posted... Are you going to rally for face mcshooty and Jack too? Nah, I'm not really that big of a Borderlands fan. Don't get me wrong, I like the games, but it's more that Tina was one of my favorite characters from 2012. And I wanted to look smart in the bracket/guru for taking her. |
The best silent protagonists are P3 MC and Amaterasu imo. Disclaimer I have not played any of the Dragon Quest games though. --- This is my signature. |
I wish we could rerun this match with Tanner as the #3 just to see how much of this is anti-votes. I bet Tanner could pull 17% here. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
vcharon posted... Yeah I'm not sure I get it... a character from a pretty old and niche game shouldn't be able to put up this performance. I'm still expecting this to die off, but maybe not. Hero just isn't a character from an old and niche game. He's a symbol of times of glory past. He's a tribute to the solemn hero, a testament of what we could be at our best. He reminds us of what we would be like if we similarly donned a white robe and a blue headscarf and ventured out in the world to fight evil, armed with nothing but a blade carved entirely from wood. He is proof of the human spirit, the innate good in all of us. He is....the hero in all of us. --- Drop it to the floor... |
What about Crono? --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
I
don't know about that... you could say you could "tell" he was from
Chrono Trigger or Dragonball too and it would be hard to question it if
you hadn't known his game. --- Still smilin' :> |
Yeah
like, I hope this raises awareness for DQV and its Hero. Like,
sincerely an amazing character from an even more amazing game from a
story telling perspective. One of the great tragedies of the 90s is Enix
didn't bring this game over. It belongs with CT and FF6 as big headline
SNES RPGs. --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. |
So about the previous match Tina was 3rd at Freeze right?And she even went 1st?That can't happen in any other match I believe. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
I don't dislike Crono, but I'm not a big fan of him either. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
Oh I forgot to mention vote totals. I don't even think vote totals have broken 30,000 votes. --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
His game isn't that old considering the DS release Which is a great purchase by the way --- http://img.imgcake.com/KommunistKoala/koalajpgehsa.jpg http://img.imgcake.com/KKpngat.png |

One of the great tragedies of the 90s is Enix didn't bring this game over. It belongs with CT and FF6 as big headline SNES RPGs. Absolutely. They chose 7th Saga to bring over instead (idiots). I would go as far to argue that DQ peaked with 5, and it's been kind of downhill since. |
Wait, what, Tiny Tina was in 1st at one point in the match? Did Tharja comeback in the last hours? --- "This is a fantasy based on reality." DChemist |
The Real Truth posted... Oh I forgot to mention vote totals. I don't even think vote totals have broken 30,000 votes. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5147 --- The Great GameFAQs Character Battle IX contest - 4/5 points NP: Aerith Gainsborough > Rinoa Heartilly > Hero |
man I'm doing terribly on expert mode I think I would have gotten the first three matches right but I didn't predict any of them and then I finally decided Rinoa > Hero was sure enough and now... Well, we'll see I guess --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
scaryice posted... Rallied so hard last night for Tina, but it just fell short. #2 post on r/borderlands, #7 post on r/borderlands2. Got a link posted here too: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Tiny-Tina/461805067171803. At the end I was trying to go into a couple Twitch streams and talk about it, but I don't think that helped. Oh well. I'm a FE fan and voted Tharja last night, but this type of rallying is cool. Going to bat for your favorite character and gathering support for them is a great part of the contest. Shame your rally fell just short. Also, I was really worried about my Shepard/Aeris pick until right now. At this point, I think it will be very close. And even if Hero does give up 2nd place to Riona, this is the most unexpected/impressive performance of the contest so far, narrowly edging Tiny Tina's night surge. Tiny Tina was supposed to get last, some gave her credit and even picked her. Hero was given almost no chance at second despite Final Fantasy LFF. Today is a good day for Sir Chris! --- SC2K13 Bracket: -0 Next upset: Jak > Draven/Chie Expert Challenge: -0 RIP Tingle Oracle: Team Frog and Magus |

I
can agree with that, but it is more like a rocky downhill movement (VI
was great, VII was great but took some acquired taste, VIII was watered
down but still very fun, IX was fun but...!) --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. |
ffmasterjose posted... The Real Truth posted...Oh I forgot to mention vote totals. I don't even think vote totals have broken 30,000 votes. So just barely over 30,000 votes. My point still stands. --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
From: Safer_777 | Posted: 7/11/2013 12:34:16 PM | #059 So about the previous match Tina was 3rd at Freeze right?And she even went 1st?That can't happen in any other match I believe. there's plenty of matches that could happen in still. like, say, the very next match! --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
Yeah too bad you missed it.I was here when Tharja was winning by about 300 votes and I saw all the match.It was nice. Anyway for this match the lowest seed get's first.First match that this happens. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
So, 65% on Olimar is more impressive than 65% on Hero, right? |
Assuming
the relative percentage stays the same it is pretty strange Aerith is
getting less % than Shepard when she should be double SFFing here --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
vcharon posted... Yeah I'm not sure I get it... a character from a pretty old and niche game shouldn't be able to put up this performance. I'm still expecting this to die off, but maybe not. Hero is obviously a proxy for every Hero from every DQ game, just like everyone considers all the Links as the same character. --- It's like paying for bubble wrap. -transience on Final Fantasy: All the Bravest |
Aerith shares no fanbase with the Hero. --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. |
redrocket posted... vcharon posted...Yeah I'm not sure I get it... a character from a pretty old and niche game shouldn't be able to put up this performance. I'm still expecting this to die off, but maybe not. You have literally never played DQV or just missed the point <_<. --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. |
The Real Truth posted... Oh I forgot to mention vote totals. I don't even think vote totals have broken 30,000 votes. Yoshi's match also broke 30000 votes for a night match. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Rinoa no..... my beautiful angel~ --- You think this is over because I am dead. It's not over. The games have just begun. |
I think you overestimate the general public Chris. Granted, this is gamefaqs, but I'm pretty sure lots of people still don't know the difference between Big Boss and Solid Snake. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |

Going to bat for your favorite character and gathering support for them is a great part of the contest. Shame your rally fell just short. Well, it was either that or get a reasonable amount of sleep. Actually, I wanted to rally more for Solaire, but that was always a lost cause. |
Next match I'm going all in on Draven > Jak > Chie. It's +6 or -6 for me. --- "This is a fantasy based on reality." DChemist |
pjbasis posted... I think you overestimate the general public Chris. I was afraid Hero wouldn't get 10% The public has earned my adoration today. --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. |
Didn't account for FFVII leeching votes from other titles being enough for Dragon Quest. I expected the latter series to be uber-fodder but that's obviously untrue now. --- Wii Fit Trainer MASTER RACE |
MAN am I glad I adjusted based on the 2 vs 1 theory. Blue pretty much has to be the favorite over the Fox guys now, right? --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page, Rest in peace Kazbar :( |
With
niche JRPG characters looking pretty decent and gamefaqs not caring
about LoL at all (based on previous polls) Chie might actually come out
looking pretty decent. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
Yeah she might win by more than she was originally thought to --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
UltimaterializerX posted... MAN am I glad I adjusted based on the 2 vs 1 theory. Yo. |
Achromatic posted... redrocket posted...vcharon posted...Yeah I'm not sure I get it... a character from a pretty old and niche game shouldn't be able to put up this performance. I'm still expecting this to die off, but maybe not. I have played DQ V. I am saying this is going to be the perception of casual DQ fans who haven't played V. Also DQ VI is a pretty noticeable downgrade from V, for the record! --- It's like paying for bubble wrap. -transience on Final Fantasy: All the Bravest |
Achromatic posted...
Then accept that people are probably voting Hero because of many different Dragon Quests! --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
GameFAQs might not care about LoL but rallies will be made. --- "This is a fantasy based on reality." DChemist |
Who is going to rally for Jak? LOL --- "This is a fantasy based on reality." DChemist |
Dilated Chemist posted... Who is going to rally for Jak? LOL Doesn't need one. PS All Stars boost. |
Yeah
I would have taken Hero to get about 15% on Aerith alone, which is the
reason why my Expert challenge isn't getting any points again at this
rate. --- This is my signature. |
redrocket posted... Achromatic posted...redrocket posted...vcharon posted...Yeah I'm not sure I get it... a character from a pretty old and niche game shouldn't be able to put up this performance. I'm still expecting this to die off, but maybe not. Well yeah obviously VI is a downgrade but it can be a downgrade and still be great. Not every game is the second best game of all time after all. --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. |
Yeah no I doubt people are looking at Hero and saying "Oh yeah DQV Hero woo!" Sure some might say that, but there are plenty, if not the majority of his votes, saying "Oh yeah Dragon Quest woo!" --- http://img.imgcake.com/KommunistKoala/koalajpgehsa.jpg http://img.imgcake.com/KKpngat.png |
I think well over half of the LoL fanbase actually dislikes Draven. Don't see rallying for him going too well honestly! --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
LoL is the #3 game on the site. I think it's more of a question of whether LoL fans care enough about Draven to put him over. --- Harmony is peace. Peace is unity. Unity is harmony. I tell this to the King Nook. He ask me to leave. |
To be fair I don't give a single **** why people vote the way they do <_< --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. |
It's looking like characters need 15,000 votes to win their match. 15,000 votes is not that much if you think about it. What dedicated fanbase can get that amount of votes? --- "This is a fantasy based on reality." DChemist |
