    As the title briefly suggests, what are your favourite video gaming character designs overall, and why? Do you usually go for a complex design, a more simple design, or somewhere between the two, with a few quirks here and there? Feel free to share all thoughts!

    I have a few favourites! First of all, there's Yuri Lowell from Tales of Vesperia.

    Well, partly because I'm more of a fan of more simpler character designs, so, Yuri pretty much fits the bill on that! Specifically, I like the way on how they portrayed his character to be this sorta bad-ass persona with a heart of gold, and his out-fit sort of complements that, if that makes sense. Well, he mostly wears dark attire, as you can see, which yeah, it's not really all that complex to visualize, and.. I dunno, everything from him just seems to fit together quite nicely! Then again, the characters from Tales of Vesperia are all generally well designed & dressed too, like Rita Mordio, Flynn, Patty, Raven, etc.

    There's also Sylvia, Levin, and Fury from ファイアーエムブレム 聖戦の系譜 Fire Emblem Seisen no Keifu (Genealogy of the Holy War):

    Yeah from left to right - you have Sylvia the Dancer, Levin the Bard who is secretly a prince, and Fury who is a Pegasus Knight. Well other than the fact that they have green hair (ohoho, screw the rules, they have green hair!), their designs are pretty straight-forward and cool to look at! Sylvia's dancer outfit is pretty nice, and gods, Levin's scarf is really cool. Fury is also pretty simple, in terms of being a Pegasus Knight compared to certain Fire Emblem games, but her hair & armor is pretty gorgeous too.

    I've never played Final Fantasy, but I like Cloud and Tifa's designs.

    I've also never played Fire Emblem but I like Roy Pherae too. c:

    Ohhh good taste - I like Roy's design too; just didn't mention him cause then there would be too many to list. o:

    And yeah, Tifa looks pretty awesome, and Lightning rocks with her FF13 outfit, imo. :3

    I really like the design of Link from the Legend of Zelda. Both the child and adult Link version look quite simplistic; with more or less regular green clothing, and the weird hat thing (whatever that may be). It really works well for a character who starts off as a regular kid, but then quickly becomes stronger and more powerful.

    Apollo Justice from the Ace Attorney series looks pretty cool with his spiffy red suit. Also, most characters from Fire Emblem Awakening.

    Magus from Crono Trigger looks pretty badass, though I never used him much in my playthroughs of the game.

    Speaking of Link--I prefer the OoT Adult Link and the SS Link (so far)

    I really like Looker's design from Pokémon! It's simple - but stark. I also really love most of the designs from Rune Factory 4 and RF in general.

    Sometimes being simple with your design is what will make you really cool.
    Case and point: Vincent or Cloud from FFVII. Personally from that standpoint I'd go with the former, also going by backstory.

    I also love Knight Artorias from Dark Souls.
