Every good game needs good characters. A great plot, great
gameplay, doesn’t mean anything if your protagonist is an annoying jerk, your
villain is shoddily put-together, or you’re playing a FPS. (No offense, HALO
fans) If the characters in the game aren’t relatable or likable, then the
player won’t want to play the game, since the essence of the game is following
these characters around and how they drive the plot forward. So while I’m
preparing for finals this year, I thought I would introduce you to my favorite
videogame character: Ratchet, from the Ratchet & Clank game series.
