In quest/rpg sorts of games, what kind of girl main party characters do you like best? Cute ones, Disney Princess ones, sexy ones...?

I like women if they kick ass. Nei from Phantasy Star II, Tifa from FF7, Alena from DW4. Especially Alena. She does wonders with earrings!

In RPGs they ALL do!  In their own ways of course.

Also like King from Art of Fighting. Her in that tux... yum

Are you sure that's a "her"?   Now these are what I call chicks in a tux...I can't believe there have actually been proms that wouldn't let tux girls in   Honestly I think chicks in a men's suit/tux look HOT!!  I mean, Robin especially looks adorable in a tux

I have been playing through Nier Automata.  Got the different endings and the DLC outfits.  Now I am considering one last playthrough as an overpowered android.

With that said 2B and A2 are both up there.

It's all about the whips.

Sofia (Battle Arena Toushinden)

Quistis Trepe (Final Fantasy VIII)

Lorelai (Suikoden 3)

 

Whip (King of Fighters series)

Oh yes, the "hot teacher" character   I bet nobody disrupts the class or misbehaves with her wielding that whip!!

So I'm now working on Tales of Symphonia (PS3; cuz you know, the trophies) and Colette (she is so kawaii, isn't she?) has one of my quirks...we both say we're sorry too much!   And then when she's called out on it, she says she's sorry for saying sorry too much!

King was a twist. Short hair, the fighting style, wearing a suit. Even the name. In story you hit her so hard her shirt comes undone, showing her bra.

The non-turn based women are the best.

It doesn't count if they're not on your main team/party.

Speaking of which I did get to the part in Symphonia where Boobs, eh I mean Sheena joins your team...I still like the original Floyd/Colette/Genis/Raine team best though.  Raine sure does like slapping her little bro Genis a lot though!!

Umm, NOT cute...NOT kawaii...

Kawaii (Japanese: かわいい or 可愛い, IPA: [kawaiꜜi]; 'lovely', 'loveable', 'cute', or 'adorable')^[1] is the culture of cuteness in Japan.^[2][3][4] It can refer to items, humans and non-humans that are charming, vulnerable, shy and childlike.^[2

 

 

[Tanooki | 4,932]

That's normal for Japan, more socially open about stuff the west could find creepy or strange.  Yet vulnerable and childlike don't have to be a pairing for kawaii.  That dictionary probably should have closed that with shy OR (not AND) as primarily it's really just used for cute more than the rest.

I need a shower after reading this thread.

Yes, Reed's post reads it can not it must.  And it's just kinda rewarding and fascinating seeing these kinds of JRPG characters think nothing of kicking ass and taking names!

Eh personally I don't care.  Attractive vs meh or worse is nice I guess, but it really comes down to the abilities and personality it brings to the table to make them a benefit to the game and not a lame prop.

All the more reason for my ground rule for they have to be in the main party/team...guest characters or NPCs don't count. More often than not the cute chick is a major if not THE major star of the show, eh I mean game.

Yeah I know, all for the horny teens... as if enough boys didn't lose it over Titfa Lockhart when FF7 came out.

I think all the neck beards were hot for Yuffie.

I thought that was Lara Croft with her pointed tits that did that at the time?  Though I personally do dig Tifa's knee length hair I like in that game Areith best   And as I do with JRPGs that let me do so, I traditionally name the first female character (Tifa) after my wife Denise and the second female character (Areith) after our dearly departed kitty Tweetie.  Though that means it makes a particular scene/part of that game especially sad
