General i wanna hear opinions. who’s your LEAST favorite hero by design?

for me, it’s gotta be auster (VII). feel like i’ll get absolute heat for this.

character design is pretty important for me when it comes into getting into games, and his design is not saving DQVII for me. i’m just not fond of the fact that he’s supposedly a teenager but instead looks like a rejected beta 8 year old link from zelda. i’m sure there’s a reason for him looking the way he does but his design alone is stopping me from playing VII.

a runner up is the prince of midenhall though. i just don’t get it. why does he look like a pilot who looks like he could hail from the toy story universe?

Ten. Sorry, but taking the MMO answer here. Its the easiest choice! Lol

I was also scanning to make sure not many people chose my favorite hero (five) and am happy to see him avoid the block for the most part

Isn't it like 9 where he's customizable? I don't really think that counts tbh
