Torgal, Turgle, and the importance of cute, lovable characters in video games FINALFANTASYXVI Torgle StarWarsJediSurvivor opinion
What this has highlighted is the importance of cute-but-quirky supporting characters in games. While the nature of many video game narratives suits the ‘lone hero against the odds’ trope or the brooding loner type who just get things done, the importance of a solid support network is becoming increasingly prevalent in the modern gaming landscape. has taken this route.
It’s not always easy to create an effective supporting cast, and there are plenty of examples out there of ones we’d rather forget . But thankfully, more and more recent games are including faithful companions and lovable side characters. We’ve already mentioned Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, but we’d be remiss if we failed to mention buddy bot BD-1.
As much as it seems to be the case, it’s not always as simple as just making a side character and calling it a day. Yes, cuteness goes a long way, and an animal-like companion can be a shortcut, but we need to care about their fate. We need to have a reason to care about their well being, and how they can make the player’s experience better. It doesn’t always have to be that they provide a gameplay benefit.
One thing’s clear though – side characters are in vogue at the moment, whether they’re cute, a little derpy, lovable, or quirky, and developers will want to make sure they take a little extra time to make sure they get them right.
