7 Silent Protagonists That Prove Words Are Overrated

[@_FVLL_]

My favorite silent protagonist is the Doom guy. He needs no words. He's just gonna blast and punch his way thru and you know he's pissed off. He doesn't need to make a sound to prove it.

[@bartholomew8449]

That's right and I am shocked he's not on this list

[@dram77_19]

I'm surprised Doom wasn't on this list

[@TinKnight]

Eh...all of the games and characters in this list have speech (or written speech), and the protagonists interact & communicate without speaking. Doomguy just ran around and blew everything up with no real personality to speak of (he was designed to represent the player, not be his own character). As John Romero said "There was never a name for the DOOM marine because it's supposed to be YOU."

[@dram77_19]

TinKnight very true and that is why Doom guy is one of my favorite characters in a game because it feels a bit more immersing without the dialogue

[@kooperbrandle3653]

ur exactly right

[@SirThomas_II]

Claude GTA 3. dude is so silent he appeared in GTA San Andreas and still don't say anything

[@keithelliott2377]

i think he's actually mute. or at least, that's their excuse.

[@Dominus62680]

Thomas Graham YES! GTA 3!!!!

[@tarekomari6746]

We wouldn't even know his name if it wasn't for GTA San Andreas

[@vladoidavid6270]

Hes mute because he was shoot by carmelita

[@richardthompson790]

He didn't talk in San Andreas, and that game occurred 9 years before part 3

[@persomiissleepy]

Lettme just say this nearly every single protagonist in the Shin Megami Tensei franchise. Because who needs 100% dialog when you can awkwardly stare back at your companions as they explain stuff and awnser back when the plot requires it.

[@Yorkshiriann]

... ... ... .. .....

[@Yorkshiriann]

.... ... ..... .... .....

[@keithelliott2377]

i tend to sacrifice my companions to try and stop YHWH anyway. screw allies. i want demons, sure they're not loyal, but i say burn that guy to death, they do it.

[@DiegoEagler96]

Yu Narukami from Persona 4 is one of my favourite silent protagonists. He goes throughout the entire game not uttering a word and still manages to make the best friends in the world. Who said you need to work hard and actively try to make friends when you can speak volumes by saving the world with your actions.

[@LEGEND200100]

DiegoEagler96 he does talk he just doesn't talk in the game, he talk in the anime do that doesn't make him silent protagonist, he doesn't talk in the game, because the theme of JRPG'S game about protagonists doesn't talk in games, he's not the best there are a lot better then him

[@playmoshi124]

0:10 Rob, is that a Coca-Cola? YOU TRAITOR!

[@okay5573]

i'm mind blown

[@garrec3]

lol, those were my exactly my thoughts when I saw it.

[@milboxr9772]

Moshi Plays :O

[@JazOfAllTrades109]

The warden from Dragon Age: Origins

[@SuperArppis]

He's not silent. You choose his words. So he speaks, but you just don't hear it.

[@gibsondanny]

@@SuperArppis not just that, but the warden does speak, during combat. or when unlocking chests or whatever. You even choose a voice during the character creation.

[@trustypatches669]

Add BB in MGSV! Even quiet talks more than him xD

[@trustypatches669]

+Cloud Strife Smh :-/ I said Big Boss not quiet :-/

[@iWillWakeYouUp]

+Cloud Strife Ahahaaaa I get it. Good one.

[@nikodemvankenobi]

+Alireza M I would rather call him... Well... Venom Snake, Not BB.

[@MissedAWide2]

+Nikson spoilers..... Jk. Or "that one Colombian medic"

[@ayoungzachmorris2763]

+Todd The Toddler Howard Either that or Snake would be dead

[@fredman2640]

I get all warm and fuzzy inside when i see Delsin Rodent.

[@erikwhittla7224]

My goodness, I somehow accidentally hit the mute button when the video started and watched the video for almost 2 minutes without sound, thinking it was part of the "silent protagonist" stick

[@HunterTracks]

Artem from Metro series. The one and only word he ever said throughout about 35 hours worth of wandering the remains of the Moscow is "F***".

[@SleepyKataphrakt]

excluding the Loading screen entries

[@HunterTracks]

Pippin Santiago Well, we don't even have anything to compare voices to tell that it's actually him. Besides, loading screens don't exist for the lore.

[@NowThatsPeng]

I'm pretty sure the voice in the loading screens says "I" many times. It's fairly obvious that it is Artyom talking in those.

[@HunterTracks]

NowThat'sPeng Those are the notes that he writes, yet the identity of the reader have never been revealed. That could be Artyom, his son, his friend... We have no way of knowing.

[@NowThatsPeng]

Unknown Error Well regardless, I'm fairly certain the identity of the reader has never been kept hidden or anything. It's generally accepted that it is in fact Artyom talking. Though that does beg the question; why did they hire a voice actor for Artyom but only have him narrate the loading screens? It would have been a bit less jarring to hear him actually talk to people throughout the games, and not just stand there in silence.

[@jeremydaugherty9602]

My favorite silent protags are actually each of the protags from the Dragon Quest games. I find the stories in the games very immersive, and somehow, you can always tell what your character is thinking even though he/she never says a word, either out loud or in text bubbles.

[@mecrive]

You didn't use Jak from the first Jak and Daxter!

[@joshuapaige5728]

I was expecting to see him on this list too

[@Abszilla51]

Me too, it's always funny when Jak is about to talk but always gets interupted.

[@mecrive]

yeah

[@jneumann341]

Probably because the second game he talks

[@Wolfsbane101]

+Manatee Indivijul Situation that didn't stop ryu from being on here since talks at the end of the game

[@WolfmanXD]

Chrono and Serge from Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross.

[@Not-an-Alien]

2 of the best games ever made.

[@daimingjun2147]

Duck duck buck

[@big_boss2976]

Chrono Trigger ftw

[@ianmccallum9818]

the badger conversation was really clever

[@TheShaspio]

Nice list dudes, i would have added Red from Transistor somewhere in there, does she count?

[@PlayStationAccess]

+TheShaspio You can make her sing, so I don't think she does! -Rob

[@auliaibrahim7135]

+PlayStation Access You forgot Pokemon Rob.

[@connorcorn7309]

damn that game was so overlooked... easily one of my 2014 favorites

[@Wintercat1]

+TheShaspio For that matter, wasn't The Kid from Bastion silent as well? Moreso, since Red could sing/hum.

[@Jay-fs2nw]

She can only hum in it, but she does finally get her voice back when she goes to the country

[@EvanFilarca]

If this wasn't PlayStation related, all of the Pokémon protagonists would be on here. LOL

[@AlmightyPolarBear]

I think they would be summed up into one on a list. XD

[@milesprower3854]

Link

[@finnmurphy7118]

Why the lol?

[@ellsyboby]

Best badger moment ever. Actually started to find him endearing

[@patrickmarsh2538]

How about 7 video game viruses that would be really bad in reality?

[@amaos3995]

2/7 weren't even silent. Why not someone like Gordon Freeman?

[@thepuffinman1055]

Not PlayStation

[@Sholgan935]

how about a video about 7 gaming characters we tought were bad but turned out to be suprisingly good?

[@daynejosephh]

What about Jak from The Precurser Legacy??

[@j25-games96]

thats what im thinking

[@ericherzberg570]

He doesn't count, he DID talk in Jak 2, so... yeah, disqualified.

[@j25-games96]

Eric Herzberg k so did that one game in the video

[@m.muradbasic4186]

+Uzumaki Kazuma not quite, it is stated that Jak couldn't talk until Jak 2. You can even see that when Jak is traveling with his younger himself, his kid version didn't say ANYTHING. So he also said nothing in Jak and Dexter TPL. Theory goes that the whole darl Eko gave him the ability to talk.

[@KajillionX]

+Uzumaki Kazuma How if there were characters in the video who were SHOWN SPEAKING?

[@AndromedaKai]

Why no Freeman( he's so silent he is made fun of by other characters!

[@cpt.shmitt7387]

Ayla Cheshir Technically he isn't a protagonist since he caused most of the problems in the first place.

[@AndromedaKai]

***** lol true on the surface, but if it wasn't for Gordon, somebody else would have done the experiment. Plus he saved the Earth from Zen.

[@damianworek4444]

Umm and who says that protaginists can't make problems? As far as I know protagonists don't have to be good, they may just as well be evil. Following your logic a huge number of MC's in the games aren't protagonists cos they fucked up one way or another.

[@cpt.shmitt7387]

Damian Worek Well, technically the definition of a protagonist is a main character in a story. They aren't necessarily good guys. Like Mel Gibson in Payback.

[@SUBSCRIBERSWITHOUTVIDEOS-vu4zs]

This is Playstation, not pc (half life is not for playstation)

[@Lord_Deimos]

Why pick Chell and not Gordon bloody Freeman?

[@Arek15Arek]

ikr

[@CosmicApe94]

[@58rocKsErt1]

+MGSHarley Half life is on PlayStation.

[@CosmicApe94]

[@DRFEAR-fm8gu]

Technically not true you could say they are silent protagonist because we don't hear them talk but they still talk you have dialogue options they mean silent protagonists that don't utter a word what so ever a grunt or a yell does not count because those aren't words

[@johnspartan15]

Omg lol I love the running joke through these of the mgs reference tally. I love these vidoes.

[@Make_Shift13]

Gordon Freeman? Cmon he's the first person people think of when they think silent protagonist

[@lewiscarrol6193]

[@SpeedDemon908]

[@bloopblop5710]

+Marko Stamenkovic Nolan North literally voices like 80 protagonists from different games

[@polarbearicequeen]

Your commentary on Portal and Portal 2 reminds me of an extremely intense and competitive round of the silent game I used to play as a kid when my mum wanted me to be quiet. She'd tell me whoever was quietest the longest in the car would get a piece of candy.

[@coolheymanpoop123456]

No Link? Okay. Anyone else?

[@Vgamer311]

I get that they only talk about games on PlayStation and that's fine, but how do you make a list about silent protagonists and not include the most famous silent protagonist of all time?

[@chimchim22]

I know right? How many games has he been in? Not a single word in any of them. Aside from the occasional yes or no that he doesn't even say.

[@Vgamer311]

+Klordz THERE'S NO SUCH THING!!

[@chimchim22]

+Klordz that which shall not be named.

[@Gregarian]

I was expecting link

[@InebriatedGalvatron]

No Gordon Freeman? I'm honestly surprised, isn't he essentially the go-to protagonist for silent protagonists?

[@gazebo3496]

Yeah I know the orange box is on PS3 so isn't half life a PlayStation game then

[@FistOfFiori]

+InebriatedGalvatron Him and Link!

[@clarkcollins1804]

Doesn't chrono talk at the trial?

[@Lelouchxzero1]

Klaw Schafer No he talks only once in a secret ending when the two females Characters start talking about all the Male NPC's Chrono said one line of dialog in whole game.

[@mattcat83]

The following quote is relevant here: "As players, we never see his words save for two lines in a hard to get ending. And since they go out of their way to make sure that we as players never see his dialog, it's not inaccurate to say that he doesn't talk." PeterSvensson from Gamefaqs.com comment thread.

[@Wandergirl108]

Ahh yes, Chell. I take after her, in pretty much every way except that I am a chatterbox. Maybe I should work on that. XD And my favorite silent video game protagonist is Jak from Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. Yes, I know he talks in later games, but I also hate the other games, for a multitude of reasons; it was best when he was a silent, shy, determined, and pure young man, who didn't need to speak because Daxter talked more than enough for two people. I mean, it's only because he was pumped full of dark eco and took on some major anger issues that he ever felt the need to start talking; surely, that's proof that being quiet is better, not just for the people around you, but also as an indicator of what kind of person you yourself are, isn't it?

tony cotterill this is a playstation thing im pretty sure, so they only use playstation games

[@theithemetheyes1404]

The whole PlayStation thing is nice but literally the only reason I'm not subscribed yet is because the fact that Pokemon and Zelda both have many brilliant examples in multiple videos that are really annoying to not include

[@odudi]

Some of the ones that come to mind is most of the protagonist in the dragon warrior/ dragon quest series. Adol Christion in a ton of the Y's series. You touched on 1 of the breath of fire series. In all the games the protagonist is quiet. Sometimes it's great to have a silent protagonist it kind of puts yourself in their shoes

Jak from jak and daxter the precursor legacy

+Pressthebigredbutton Damn you! I was just going to post that!

[@Camarillian]

Claude Speed? D:

[@patriziopucci9316]

Caim from Drakengard, in the game you really forget that he can't speak because you don't need to hear words to know what he's thinking, and his smile while he is slaughtering armies is wonderful

[@shadowpokemander2766]

dark souls 1,2 and 3 the player

[@mairaineplayzgames2205]

what about fable? the main protagonist doesnt utter a single word in that game

[@anime_stance]

Don't forget that this is PlayStation access. Fable is an Xbox exclusive.

[@mairaineplayzgames2205]

[@AugustBurnsRed181]

Where's dragon born or hero of kvatch?

[@nickhoude21]

they talk, it's just text based.

[@warrenbobbitt2126]

+nick houde so does corvo

[@nickhoude21]

Warren Bobbitt good point.

[@tichepotato7992]

The last dragonborn certainly isn't mute. Think about it. What is your most powerful weapon against the dragons you slay? (besides your daedric bow, op spells, daedric sword, etc) Your thuum. Your voice. The last dragonborn most definitely is not mute.

[@tichepotato7992]

Warren Bobbitt I wasn't talking about Corvo. As the video says, he's not mute, he just refuses to talk, due to the situation.

[@marcusreading3783]

Isaac, Felix and Matthew come to mind as awesome silent protagonists. And yes, I know they are from Nintendo.

[@fredrikhallerstrom7225]

silent protaganists are really stupid and i hate them. it just makes the character youre playing an empty shell that you control

[@TheReacTT]
