StaceyPowers Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Are there any video game characters which are role models to you? I’ve been clinging to TLOU lately while going through some difficult things IRL. Joel is an easier character for me to relate to, but Ellie’s balance of optimism with a clear and realistic world view really inspires me, and I want to be more like her. My other video game role models are Leliana from Dragon Age, for the way she learned over the course of Origins to be her full self, and Booker DeWitt from Bioshock Infinite, for overcoming some really serious inner demons. Who are your video game character role models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Jason from Blaster Master. Also Kratos in GoW. The only difference is that Kratos was a real man, whereas Jason is just a fictional video game character. But the thing they both have in common is that they show no fear and charge in destroying everything in their path. Jason instinctively knew how to use SOPHIA 3 and went straight in, and we all know how Kratos handled himself and everything that was an obstacle.

To the best of my knowledge Kratos wasn't a real man, or even a part of ancient Greek mythology for that matter. Executor Akamia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Kratos or Cratos is the divine personification of strength in Greek mythology. He is the son of Pallas and Styx; he and his siblings Nike ("Victory"), Bia ("Force"), and Zelus ("Zeal") are all essentially personifications. Kratos is first mentioned alongside his siblings in Hesiod's Theogony. Crazycrab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I am kind of fan of the war and death in the darksiders. I am also finding strong in the dante and nero. So it seems like more I play such action games things feel great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
