The characters can be considered as the soul, the key to the success of any game. No matter how good the game mechanics are, if you fail to build the character, the plot as well as many other elements of the games will also be severely affected. Sometimes, besides the main characters, some new “supporting roles” become the key to the success of many games. But at the same time, there are also many extremely potential cases, but lack of acting land because of the lack of interest from the developer.
Melina in Elden Ring
Melina is the first character that gamers will meet in Elden Ring. Acting as a guide, she always accompanies gamers in every journey ahead. However, the role of Melina is too unremarkable and extremely lacks interaction with the player.
This may be due in part to the overwhelming amount of content in the Elden Ring. Melina interacts almost exclusively with the player for events in Mountaintops of the Giants. Outside of this area, she was almost completely silent. Even gamers can go through dozens of hours without interacting with Melina.
Jesse in The Last of Us Part 2
In addition to the story of the journey of Joel and Ellie, the supporting characters in The Last of Us series are also highly appreciated, including Jesse – one of the names that received a lot of support from the fans. top gamers.
Built in a kind and friendly way in an extremely dark world, Jesse easily won the hearts of players. Playing the role of both Ellie’s friend and Dina’s ex – Ellie’s best friend, Jesse plays a pretty important role in leading the story. Only, he was later murdered at the hands of Abby – Ellie’s sworn enemy.
Lunafreya Nox Fleuret in Final Fantasy 15
Obviously, the extremely elaborate and meticulous cast of characters has made the success of Final Fantasy 15 up to the present time. Characters like Noctis, Prompto, Gladio, and Ignis all have a significant fan base. Even ancillary names like Ardyn or Leonis are perfectly constructed. Except for one person. That’s Lunafreya Nox Fleuret.
Worth mentioning is that Lunafreya has a lot of potential for development. However, she hardly even has a story of her own, despite playing Noctis’s fiancĂ©e and his key ally later. Lunafreya only appeared in a few short scenes mid-game, before being cut by the developer with a rather confusing death scene.
