SC:L Poll - Who is your favorite character from Wings of Liberty?

[Norfindel]

A lot of votes to Kerrigan. Strange. I would say that the character sucked balls in WoL, but that would certainly qualify as something more interesting than what she did

[gwoodkid]

Neither Nova nor Tosh was in there... Hmm... shouldn't we add them into the poll as well?
Anyways, I go for Zeratul, who is always my favorite...

Nova and Tosh were flat characters IMO.

I voted Jim because he really did drive the story this time around, rather than just being a witness. I think he was at his best interacting with characters in the story mode space. There's better dialog coming from there than in the cinematics IMO. The way Jim interacts with other characters allows you to learn more about them, which I think gives him that edge. You feel like some time has went by and he shares a history with his crew. Tychus would be my runner up.

Hidden Content:

but after he died I kinda stopped caring, kinda like the ending which seemed to brush over his death. That's the one thing I REALLY don't like about the ending, just how quickly and unemotionally he died

[infernal]

I think you guys need to go back and do every conversation with swann, he is pretty much the best.

id think id have to agree on swan the coolest chief engineer ever

Gabriel tosh is a close second

[GRUNT]

Tychus Findlay!

SPOILERS BELOW:

Hidden Content:

I was so sad that he died! Although he's quite a rough character, I thought his time with Jim would have turned him around. For a character as cool as him, they ought to at least have given him a hero's death - choosing to die by defying Mengsk, rather than dying as his pawn.

Although really, the best solution would to just have not killed him, and then bring him back in the expansions .

I wanna vote for Donny Vermillion.. :P

[rainynightz]

Since Nova wasn't on the list, I voted for Warfield, just because he said that his ship was taking "terrible terrible damage" XD

Also, Nova is NOT flat! She has a decent and not outrageous bust, as well as an entire novel written about her! (Go read Starcraft GHOST: Nova, everyone!) I was so happy when I got to her mission, I didn't hesitate to throw Tosh out the window =D

[Drake Clawfang]

Gabriel Tosh. Not only is he dark and badass, but underneath the cynical and cold assassin's exterior you get the sense deep down he really is loyal and fights for the good causes. He's just loose with his morals and ethics while doing it. Besides, his voice is easily the most seductive and sinister in the game, smooth and rich with a definite air of menace.

[pure.Wasted]

Since it's true that I liked the vast majority of WOL's cast to a degree that makes choosing any one character difficult, if not impossible, I will re-interpret the question ever so slightly:

Which character, of all those I liked very much, was taken advantage of to the fullest possible extent by the story? Whose story was told the most competently, with the fewest missteps?

The answer to that is unquestionably Matt Horner. For as much as I might have liked others, there is plenty of room in my mind for their story to have been told better, or their character explored more fully.

[Norfindel]

Also, Nova is NOT flat!

I agree. She has plenty of variation in her Z depth
