You love the main character, and love the game, WHO ARE THEY???

Gustave XIII - SaGa Frontier 2
He was a really memorable and powerful character. A strong, determined character who never let fate hold him back and persevered, and he inspired respect, maybe a little admiration. He had a motivation that was easy to identify with, being acknowledged by others, and growing considerable power that he acquired through his own merit, making him worthy of respect, and having enough style to make him stand out. He is truly one of the most inspiring video game characters i have ever seen.

Luca Blight - Suikoden 2
A little backstory on this awesome badass individual. Strong by nature, he trained and became an inhuman fighter, by far the strongest warrior in the world of Suikoden. He fought at the forefront of his army because no one was capable of killing him, and he enjoyed the slaughter, called his enemies 'pigs' before he killed them. His appearance in the field among the armies was enough to turn back the tide and make you retreat. He is also one of the toughest boss battles in video game history. He was betrayed by his closest advisor and his small squad was ambushed by the hero's army during a night raid. After archers pick off most of his troops, he sets off to fight three squads of 6 characters and fights evenly with them, none of the three successive squads were able to bring him down. After escaping through a forest and happening on a tree lit with fireflies, he was finally spotted by a group of archers, who sprayed him with arrows. After a volley of arrows, a fight against 6 people (with powerful spellcasters), another 6 characters, and finally your strongest 6 characters with your main characters, and another volley of arrows, he still wasn't dead- it took a final duel with the main character to FINALLY kill him. That alone makes him a memorable character and the best video game villain IMO yet.

PS. I wish Konami and Square made more Suikoden and SaGa games... =(
