Video Game Draft 2011: Round 7 Voting

[Suwako Moriya]

Pick up to three out of the sixteen characters for this round. The three you choose will challenge the final boss. Or they might just site down and have tea. Wait, there's a difference?

[Suwako Moriya]

Played The Game
Yuna (Final Fantasy X-2)
Purim (Secret of Mana)
Beatrix (Final Fantasy IX)
Sir Arthur (Ghosts 'n' Goblins)
Torneko (Dragon Quest 4)
Farah Oersted (Tales of Eternia)
Aerith Gainsborough (Final Fantasy VII)
Collete Brunel (Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World)
Crono (Chrono Trigger)

Well, Yuna is more for X than X-2. Barely played X-2. Maybe one day, I'll try it again.


Familiar With Through Other Means
Totooria Helmold (Atelier Totori)


Do images and hype count? Hey, it's not my fault that NISA is taking their time.....


Votes
Farah Oersted (Tales of Eternia)
Collete Brunel (Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World)
Totooria Helmold (Atelier Totori)

Farah is awesome and perhaps one of my favorite girls in the Tales series ever! She's also the main one that I tend to control while playing the game.

Collete is "love" and the only one that might rival Presea when it comes to Symphonia characters. Oh, and her weapon is nice.

As for the third vote, I know my experience with her is limited, but screw that, I'm still voting for Totooria.

Let's face it the chances of me hating her are low anyway. Plus, the artwork of her makes it hard to resist voting for her. Also, given who I drafted, voting for her would feel right.

Votes
Totooria Helmold (Atelier Totori)
Collete Brunel (Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World)
Beatrix (Final Fantasy 9)


Collete is cute, hilarious, and awesome, and also my character, so that's vote #1. I'm making a rare exception for Totooria and voting for a character from a game I haven't actually played, because she's just adorable and I've fallen in love with her just from the trailers. Uhhhh, guess I'll go with Beatrix for my third vote for being a badass.

[Serial Experiments Nobue]

Let's see now... candidates for this round:

Yuna
Beatrix
Aegis
Aerith
Crono

A pretty simple round, actually. Aerith and Aegis are instavotes. Crono gets vote number three because Chrono Trigger.

There's some characters I'm still hoping to see show up in later rounds, because I really want to vote for them. That will only be possible if someone has drafted them.

[ilmaestro]

Good grief, so much harder than a round 7 should be. ;_;

Riesbyfe (my character, she would do so well in this draft under different circumstances imo)
Aegis
Jade

are my votes, but Totori, Erica, Yuna, Beatrix, Aerith and Collete were all in the running.

[Draneor]

Wow. Four characters who I could potentially vote for. But it was easy enough to decide to go with Totori, Purim, and Aerith. Totori, because she's just adorable, and Aerith because she was another first love.

I, uh, actually had to look up who Purim was since I always knew her by "girl." I guess they gave her a name in a later translation? Anyway, sorry Yuna. You lost to a formerly nameless character from a nostalgic SNES game.

I think it's the case of her having a default name originally in the Japanese version but not in the English version, though I'm not sure (never looked up on that).

[Jimmie M]

My votes for Round 7:

Jade (Beyond Good & Evil)
Yuna (Final Fantasy X-2)
Aerith Gainsborough (Final Fantasy VII)

[Classical]

Characters I'm familiar with:

Yuna (Technically I've only played X and not X-2, but I'm still counting her)
Beatrix
Aegis
Aerith Gainsborough
Collete Brunel (same as Yuna in that I've only played Symphonia 1)
Crono

Well, Crono gets my first vote not just because he's my draft character, but because he's Crono. He's not a man of many words, but I still like him a lot. Anyway, second vote goes to Aegis because she's love. The situation for the last vote is an interesting one. I've only played like two hours of Tales of Symphonia, but I *really* like Collete. She's just too cute and adorable, and from what little I've seen of her, I like her personality a lot. As for the other characters, I like Yuna, Beatrix, and Aerith, but not quite as much as to just pass over Collete and give any one of them a vote. My feelings tell me Collete, so the last vote goes to her.

I decided to go with Aegis, Jade, and Crono. All 3 were pretty much instavotes for me. Another pretty easy round for me, Aerith was a very close 4th, but I'm playing BG&E HD right now so I've got Jade on my mind.
