Keichi from Sharin no Kuni:

1. Father murdered by a totalitarian regime.
2. Underwent brutal training and persoanlity adjustments as a young child.
3. Sent into combat as a child solider programmed to kill with a knife.
4. Got addicted to opium in the war.
5. Went through many bizarre psychological tests including self-humiliation.

All for the sake of producing an outstanding human being with the power of life and death over criminals in a dystopian social system. Filled with self-loathing and deep mental scars that will never go away, he's different from others like him only in that he's managed to hold on to his humanity no matter what they did to him.

Maybe I should've explained myself a bit better. I liked the naive Shiro in Fate, but it was awesome to see his more fucked up mindset in UBW and HF

>> No.2380055

In Fate, I thought that Shirou was an incredibly stupid idiot and hated him immensely. I almost dropped the game because of that. But I had been told that the other paths are better, and I decided to endure.

And halfway through UBW I kinda noticed that I don't hate him anymore, and he had grown on me. And I thought it was nice to see a character so mindfucked as him being able to function almost normally.

Why does everyone single out Type-Moon for complaints like this? Oh wait, that's because those are the only games people have actually played.

Seriously, play a game like Do You Like Horny Bunnies?, you play as a trap (not deliberately, its just you are so godammed feminine everyone thinks you are a girl at first.). Play Wanko to Kurasou, where you play a soulless, emotionless husk of a man that is completely indifferent to everything, including sex. Or how about Brass Restoration, where you, upon finding your arm severed, consider that you are a giant robot and fired a Rocket Punch.

The same goes for the "LOL Nasu so awkward" sex scenes in Type-Moon Games, trust me, you can't complain until you have played a game like Bible Black or Discipline. Seriously, There's much worse than "lol mollusks" out there.

Obsessed with his dead waifu, makes a doll that looks like her, becomes a complete shut-in for a year, sacrifices souls of his friends, fucks the doll. Yep, probably.

Do I really have to do H-scenes to raise her mental? I felt really proud when she finally managed to say his name in one go, but, call me weird, I don't really like the idea of fucking a barely animate doll who has the mind of a small child.

I guess I'm really the only one that liked the sex-scenes in Type-Moon games.
First-time sex should be awkward, so I'd prefer an 'awkward-written' scene

If you think about it, all protagonist's has to have flaws before they're interesting, which means pretty much all VN's have protagonist's that are fucked in one way or another. Even Wanko's protagonist is a freak.
