I just finished playing half-life 2 again, and I have to say: I love the silent protagonist.
It's a thing that doesn't always work (ie: for some reason it would be silly in something like Dead Rising or No More Heroes), but there are times where I really want to be immersed and pretend I'm the character.
Zelda games are one of those times. I usually even give Link my name (which I'm sure if blasphemy too).
I also wish Mario had never started talking. It just doesn't match up to how I imagined him talking. I always thought he had a Brooklyn accent. Oh SMB3 cartoon! How I miss your Milli Vanilli ways!
