[[folder:Video Games]]
* ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries'':
** [[spoiler:Jason Todd]] in ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamKnight''. Whereas his comic counterpart (at least pre-ComicBook/New52) was truly sadistic, reveling in the deaths he caused, and clearly cared very little for the rest of the batfamily, here he's a WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds who still loves Barbara and Alfred, and seems largely unconcerned with his violent actions. Also, where in the comics (again, pre-New 52 only) he only gets worse, adding cops and civilians to his list of targets, here he makes a full HeelFaceTurn.
** Tim Drake's Robin is a lot more similar to Dick Grayson in the series, as he is older, uses a lot of sarcasm and has a relationship with Oracle.
* ''VideoGame/BatmanTheTelltaleSeries'':
** Renee Montoya in the comics and ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' was a supporter of Batman. In the Telltale game, she's against the Batman and tries to arrest him, though she's sympathetic to him as Bruce Wayne.
** Vicki Vale in the comics and most media is a compassionate IntrepidReporter who loves Bruce Wayne and sometimes Batman. [[spoiler: In game however she despises Bruce for atrocities his father committed to her parents and Gotham in general which led to her being orphaned and abused and becoming a TragicVillain. Vicki still likes Batman, but she's stricken to learn he and Bruce Wayne are the same person and refuses to be consoled by Bruce's words of sympathy]].
** John Doe aka ComicBook/TheJoker is of course vastly different from his MonsterClown ChaoticEvil comic counterpart (though the player can cause his StartOfDarkness). The biggest difference between the comic version is that Telltale Joker isn't self-driven caring greatly for those he's close to and are nice to him whereas comic Joker only "cares" for his beloved nemesis Batman and everyone else are just pawns and playthings.
** ComicBook/HarleyQuinn is a different beast from her animated and comic versions. In the Telltale game she's a cruel [[ManipulativeBitch manipulative bitch]] while she's CuteAndPsycho in other media and tends to have a compassionate side, albeit still highly mentally unstable and too prone to violence. In Telltale game she also effectively leads the RoguesGallery while in most comics Harely is too immature for that kind of position.
* ''Videogame/{{BIONICLE}} Heroes'' took a comedic approach to its source material and redefined character personalities (as well as abilities) from scratch. Axonn, a devoted paragon of justice who repeatedly beat back the villainous Piraka [[AdaptationalVillainy became a thuggish bad guy]] in service of said group, the brilliant but impulsive Brutaka exchanged personalities with the slow dimwit Krekka, the likewise rather intelligent Thok similarly became a hapless goof (when Reidak already filled the role of "the dumb one" in canon), and the utterly no-nonsense, brooding Zaktan became a grinning, showoff LargeHam. Despite the game being completely detached from the main franchise and featuring canonically long-dead characters as enemies, it's still perplexing that the developers reinterpreted certain characters seemingly at random, instead of picking ones that would have fit the roles the developers had in mind.
* ''VideoGame/DeltaRune'', the second game by ''Creator/TobyFox'' has multiple characters returning from his first game, ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}''. However due to ''Deltarune'' being in a different timeline and setting than ''Undertale'', there are some differences in the characters. Perhaps the most glaring one is the meek shut-in in the northern part of town, who is all but said to be none other than ''[[LargeHam Mettaton]]''. Likewise, Alphys leaves an "anonymous" glowing review in the library of ''Mew Mew Kissy Cutie 2'', favorably comparing it to the original in every respect; in ''Undertale'', she savaged it as a terrible sequel. Undyne has no clue who Alphys, her eventual lover in ''Undertale'', is. Bratty and Catty, two best friends, are also now hateful next-door neighbors.
* ''VideoGame/DMCDevilMayCry'' infamously does this to several characters.
** Dante of course get this the most, in his [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry original depiction]] and in the games following the second Dante is a light-hearted, quip-happy ManChild. In the reboot "Donte" is far more moody and angsty and tends to cuss people with actual swear words instead of "[[SignatureLine Flock off, feather face]]". He's also inexplicably more successful with women being quite amorous while the irony with canon Dante was that he has lousy luck with ladies despite his good looks.
** Vergil's personality also differs from his canon portrayal where he is a NobleDemon who values honor, in the reboot Vergil is a BitchInSheepsClothing who wants to enslave humanity after Mundus gets defeated. Canon Vergil also believes GunsAreWorthless while in the reboot he happily uses a sniper rifle to abort Lilith's demon baby.
** Mundus the BigBad is also very different from his original depiction, where he was a AngelicAbomination and the EvilOverlord of the Underworld. In the reboot he's more like a Kingpin-figure in his normal form being a petty asshole demonic politician instead of a tyrannical god-like monster.
* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
** Kefka in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'' is hateful, cruel and sadistic in the [[{{Woolseyism}} English localisation]], when in the original Japanese he was a PsychopathicManchild with AmbiguousInnocence. Even Square regarded the English version as an improvement, and took elements of his English characterization back into Kefka's appearance in ''VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy''.
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'':
*** Cloud comes across as a darker and much more emotionally repressed character than in the original due to more low-intensity physical acting, a generally more serious tone, and the removal of a lot of the choices players could make about his behaviour. In the original, Cloud had the option to hit on the girls or respond with enthusiasm or honesty to his friends, but in ''Remake'', he always tries to push girls away and coldly rejects other people. The original presented Cloud's personality as very theatrical and overconfident, with [[GoingThroughTheMotions continuous hair-flipping and pose-striking]] while in Remake he is more based around the idea of constantly holding back his emotions, displaying extreme anxiety when forced to go outside of his emotional comfort zone. ''Remake'' also adds a subplot that the magical treatments that gave Cloud his strength has [[CastFromLifespan drastically shortened his lifespan]], which isn't indicated in the original and explains his stronger reticence to get involved with people. It's worth observing Cloud's character development in ''Remake'' still takes him up to the point he was at by the end of the Midgar section in the original, with him becoming much more expressive and earnest, [[BeneathTheMask dropping his mask in a vision of Aerith]] and [[GayBravado doing cocky poses while flirting with Rufus]]. Not to mention the dance sequence Cloud partakes in the Honey Bee Inn, which is right in line with the goofy situations Cloud got in the original game. By the time of ''Intergrade'' Cloud like he’s original incarnation is able to smile and be easygoing while traveling with his friends.
*** Barret in ''Remake'' comes off as consistently more well-balanced, socially responsible and smarter. In the original, Biggs, Wedge and most of the rest of the people of Sector 7 are terrified of him, with their awe of Cloud being linked in part to the fact that Cloud is able to stand up to him. Barret's also shown using much more physical violence, beating Biggs and intimidating other people by firing his weapon and bashing holes in walls, crates and, apparently, destroying Sector 7's communal TV by shooting it to pieces. The Remake Barret is AFatherToHisMen and popular in town for being a reliable local tough guy who helps out with various local causes, and while he still has a powerful temper he is detached enough to make wry fun of Cloud, and even consciously imitate him when need be. The original game had a couple of scenes that indicated Barret had a scholarly side to him, like his enthusiasm at going to Cosmo Canyon and making a reference to Buddhist literature which didn't translate, but in ''Remake'' he quotes Planetology texts and is [[BadassBookworm visibly overwhelmed with delight when seeing the Shinra library]].
*** Tifa in the original game (in stark contrast with her wardrobe) was pretty shy and hesitant to express her own feelings, ([[CannotSpitItOut particularly towards Cloud]]) and in general was empathetic and [[TeamMom motherly]]. It also helps that she keeps the knowledge about Zack hidden from Cloud throughout most of the game to save him the from mental anguish of TheReveal. In the ''Remake'' Tifa is much more outgoing as she actively helps people in the Section 7, is quite sultry and flirtatious when serving Cloud drinks (and doesn’t shy away from hugging or holding onto him) and is quite bold when comes to her ActionGirl skills claiming to Cloud, “You’ve seen how much ass I can kick”. Although ironically ''Remake'' Tifa does have more {{Angst}} than the original as she [[BrokenBird completely]] [[BreakTheCutie breaks down]] at destruction of Sector 7 unlike the original game where she remained strong and consoled Barret who was the distraught one.
*** Aerith in the original was a cross between a MysteriousWaif and ManicPixieDreamGirl who was so lighthearted and childish she’d sometimes unintentionally be oblivious to other people’s troubles as was the case with Barret in the Gold Saucer. In ''Remake'' Aerith is still full of confidence and cheer, but she more readily shows a more serious side to her personality, this is seen in moments like when she warns Cloud [[{{Foreshadowing}} not to fall in love with her]], her fierce protection of Marlene when captured by Shinra and a cold dislike and dismissal of Sephiroth in the FinalBattle.
---> '''Cloud''': He's tough.
---> '''Aerith''': So what? Screw him.
*** Sephiroth is mostly a NobleDemon and soft spoken BigBad in the original game who’s backstory involving JENOVA and Hojo makes him somewhat sympathetic even if he’s not above mentally tormenting Cloud in revenge after the latter throws him into the Mako reactor. In ''Remake'' Sephiroth is somehow even crueler and more psychotic, he actively relishes taunting Cloud about how he murdered his mother “the shiver of her flesh yielding to cold steel” and even gives Cloud visions of him killing Tifa and Barret just ForTheEvulz. On the other hand ''Remake'' Sephiroth does encourage Cloud [[WorthyOpponent to get stronger]] and even offers him the chance [[WeCanRuleTogether to join him]] in “saving” the planet.
*** Yuffie in ''Intergrade'' is very different from her original depiction due to BackportedDevelopment. In later titles like ''Anime/AdventChildren'' and ''VideoGame/DirgeOfCerberus'' Yuffie is brash and sassy but still very heroic and kind, in the original ''FFVII'', Yuffie was straight up rude and antagonistic, attempting to rob the party of their Materia and [[SoLongAndThanksForAllTheGear succeeds in doing so]] at one point forcing Cloud and co to chase back to her village of Wutai. Her FreudianExcuse is that she wants to restore her village to his former glory after it was wrecked by Shinra in the war, but even then Yuffie uses that sob story as a chance catch the party off-guard and trap them in a big cage. It’s not until the heroes save her from Don Corneo, that [[TookALevelInKindness she becomes nicer]]. ''Intergrade'' ignores all of Yuffie’s early characterisation and has be a good natured GenkiGirl who isn’t rude or insulting to anyone and her Materia stealing is for a heroic cause [[JustLikeRobinHood since she’s robbing Shinra]].
*** Heidegger is largely a comical and idiotic villain in the original ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'', with his main trait being his overwhelming temper and tendency to beat his own men. In ''Remake'', he becomes a calculating villain, defined by his dated, wartime mindset and associated bigotry, who still terrorises his men, but does so verbally rather than by launching on them to beat them.
*** The Turks, in the original, are portrayed as PunchclockVillain guys who are comical and therefore charming, but who do legitimately terrible things without guilt. In ''Remake'', they are shown experiencing intense guilt and conflict over their mission to drop the Plate on Sector 7, knowing they have to do it out of their work ethic, but unable to make themselves do something so awful. Cloud, despite having NoSocialSkills, is even able to pick up on Reno's reluctance and calls his bluff on it, and Reno still isn't able to bring himself to do it.
*** In the original, Reno was characterised as something of an incompetent blowhard, with three flunkies with him there to laugh at his jokes, hypocritically telling them not to step on the flowers after walking right through them himself, and then, thinking he's killed Aerith, remarking that [[IdiotBall she shouldn't have put up a fight]]. In ''Remake'', he still has a big ego that motivates him, but it's more about rescuing his wounded pride after getting destroyed by a PhonyVeteran than in abusing his power. When his men fire on Aerith in this version, he immediately reprimands them as his orders were to capture her alive.
*** The Shinra Manager in the original stuck up for himself against Barret, but clearly hated his job and life. He was mostly seen (justifiably) whining about the increasingly awful travel and accommodation situations he had to endure as part of his work or getting owned by higher ranking employees in a FunnyBackgroundEvent. In ''Remake'', he's a true believer and sticks up for himself against Barret by unironically spouting corporate motivational catchphrases; he's also shown with a family he loves and works to look after.
* In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGaiden'', hero protagonist Alm was depicted as an AllLovingHero that was merely fighting the kingdom of Rigel because he saw them as invaders to his home. When Alm appears in DLC for ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'', this was turned upside-down by turning him into an almost exaggerated form of a BloodKnight. Come ''Shadows of Valentia'', the remake of ''Gaiden'', he was mostly turned back to his original interpretation of being calmer and less violent, though given some sterner moments in some instances, like blaming Clive for the events at the South Fortress before he learned the full story behind it.
* In ''VideoGame/TheGreatGianaSisters'', Giana is a cheeky teenager. In the ''VideoGame/GianaSistersDS'' reboot, she is a cute cheerful child.
* ''VideoGame/KirbysAvalanche'' for the SNES was ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyo'' with a ''{{Franchise/Kirby}}'' [[DolledUpInstallment coat of paint on it]]. Thus, it was handled by different people than the regular ''Kirby'' games, and since ''Kirby'' games have little dialogue and plot as it is, they had to make up a lot. As a result, Kirby (whose personality has since been tweaked to being little more than a toddler) is making dramatic anime-style speeches to his opponents or being a snarky little JerkAss with a big grin on his face; at one point he stomps on Whispy's root after being told not to do so, saying he's in the mood for apple pie.
* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfSpyro'': As a DarkerAndEdgier reboot of the ''VideoGame/SpyroTheDragon'' games, the trilogy ended up completely overhauling each of the three returning characters' personalities:
** Spyro himself goes from a [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold cocky and arrogant, but still heroic]] MascotWithAttitude to a much more mature, serious, near-{{Paragon}} level hero. In addition, classic Spyro was [[CelibateHero uninterested in romance]] (though the ''VideoGame/SpyroReignitedTrilogy'' gave him subtle feelings for Elora), while ''LOS'' Spyro hooks up with a female dragon called Cynder by [[LastMinuteHookUp the end of the trilogy]].
** Sparx remains Spyro's best friend, but he looks much more humanoid and goes from a capable ally who had his own levels in ''VideoGame/SpyroYearOfTheDragon'' [[AdaptationalWimp to a pure]] PluckyComicRelief. In addition, Sparx [[TheUnintelligible spoke entirely in buzzing]] in the classic series, but the ''LOS'' series made him SuddenlySpeaking for the entire trilogy.
** Hunter functioned as a PluckyComicRelief in the classic series (albeit one who gradually TookALevelInBadass), but the ''LOS'' series makes him a {{stoic}} AdaptationalBadass who saves Spyro and Cynder a few times throughout the third game.
* In ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' series, the Zora are traditionally depicted as regal FishMen, while the Gerudo are DesertBandits ([[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask and in one case]], pirates), respectively. ''VideoGame/CadenceOfHyrule'', a {{Rogue like}} SpinOff installment, abandons this in favor of making them a group of laid-back {{Surfer Dude}}s and a DesertPunk community of inquisitive scavenger-scientists, respectively.
* A common trait to the ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' series, as the different circumstances means that characters would develop differently than they did in their own shows. The ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ Z]]'' series is famous for helping [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEEDDestiny Shinn Asuka]] change from a rash, angry youth into a mature, young soldier. Other changes include [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Haman Khan]] being noticeably kinder than her show counterpart, as at several points she expresses genuine concern for [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamUnicorn Marida and Mineva's]] well-being. [[spoiler:Though in the case of Mineva, ''Unicorn'' retroactively shows us that Haman had at least one PetTheDog moment with Mineva in ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamZZ ZZ]]'', likely due to Char calling her out in ''Zeta'' for her treatment of the girl. The ''SRW'' games just make the change in perspective apparent from the beginning.]]
** A more famous example that occurs in several ''SRW'' timelines is [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Shinji Ikari]]: Given the friendship, support, and respect he never attained in his home series, he goes from lonely and introverted to stable, cheerful, and open.
** In ''Anime/NadiaTheSecretOfBlueWater'', [[spoiler:Gargoyle never knew that he was never from Atlantis but just a regular human being. In ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsX'', he does manage to figure out before he disintegrates and warns Nemo about the Keepers of Order.]]
* While it's hard to get a grasp on personalities in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'', some characters are still presented differently than they are in their home-series:
** Mario is presented as a far more serious individual than he is in ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros''. He is a PerpetualFrowner and lacks his usual joviality.
** Luigi goes from being a heroic CowardlyLion in his home series to an apathetic ButtMonkey who is [[TheEeyore constantly sad]] and has a depressed-sounding voice. Even when later games try to make him seem more energetic as in his canonical depiction, he maintains the depressed tone in his voice.
** In ''VideoGame/FZero'', Captain Falcon is rather stoic. In ''Smash'', he is a HotBlooded LargeHam.
** Princess Peach is presented in a mildly HotterAndSexier manner. Her chest is bigger and personality-wise she is more flirty and mischievous, in sharp contrast to her normal PurityPersonified characterization. She also has some DitzyGenius elements.
** While mostly true to his depiction in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'', Link's HairFlip taunt in ''Melee'' is unusual for him.
** Roy is, judging by his {{Kiai}} screams, much more HotBlooded than he is in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBindingBlade''. In his case, it's {{justified|trope}} due to that his game was still in development when he debuted in ''[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosMelee Melee]]'', meaning his canon personality wasn't set in stone yet.
** A LostInTranslation example: in the [[AmericanKirbyIsHardcore English translation]], some of Lucina's victory quotes (specifically "This is the Hero-King?" and "And they call you the Radiant Hero?", when she wins against [[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Marth]] and [[VideoGame/FireEmblemRadiantDawn Ike]] respectively) are delivered in a far more condescending way than she would ever act in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'', much less towards ''legendary heroes'', or how the same lines are delivered in the Japanese version, which convey deep respect.
** Mega Man is presented as generally more robotic and stoic than he is in ''VideoGame/MegaManClassic''. This extends to his design being less human-looking.
* ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil2Remake'' does this to several members of the cast making them more [[AdaptationExpansion realized and realistic characters]] instead of stoic 90s action heroes.
** Claire is a bit different from her 1998 counterpart. She's still looking for brother Chris and still cares about Sherry and Leon but this version of Claire [[SirSwearsAlot swears like a sailor]], gets aggressive and angry when upset (as seen with Annette), has flirtatious and awkward rapport with Leon and shows more enthusiasm about taking on giant eyeball monsters and Umbrella. She also comes close to tears after Elliot is ripped apart in front of her and apologies to his corpse for being unable to save him. Given Claire is only 19, this can be chalked up to AgeAppropriateAngst.
** Leon is also somewhat different from the original game, like Claire he tends [[PrecisionFStrike F-Bomb when troubled]] and he's more stoic than his naive 1998 version. The biggest change however is that Leon is far less gullible in the remake as seen when Ada uses her [[TheVamp feminine wiles to manipulate him]], in the original he's duped completely but in the remake Leon turns against Ada immediately when he learns from Annette that she's not a FBI agent and is notably quite pissed off. Remake Leon is also not above a few quips and even gives a BringIt to Mr X in the FinalBattle.
** Robert Kendo was kinda sleazy (he hits on Claire) and a pretty unsympathetic loser in the original who gets devoured by zombies. In the remake Kendo is much more tragic as his daughter has been infected and he's utterly distraught his life has been ruined. It's even implied he takes his own life as well as [[MercyKill mercy killing]] his daughter.
** Annette Birkin isn't a one-note MadScientist who's insanely loyal to husband's genius, she's horrified over what's happened to the city and is actually trying to destroy remaining T-Virus samples herself, which brings her into conflict with Ada who wants to steal them. Annette also cares greatly for her daughter Sherry in this version and claims her life is not Claire's concern and while she does write Sherry off as dead at one point she still saves her from infection at the end and apologizes for being a terrible mother, in the original Annette [[ParentalNeglect neglects Sherry]] throughout.
* ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil3Remake'':
** Jill gets the most of this, even compared the aforementioned protagonists Leon and Claire. In the original Jill was cool and confident throughout the game displaying little angst beyond a hatred of Umbrella and a little sadness that the people of Raccoon City who didn’t have the strength to stop them. In the remake Jill is [[AdaptationalAngstUpgrade quite moody, swears at Carlos and has severe PTSD]] due to the Spencer Mansion incident and has nightmares about zombifying.
** Carlos was a CasanovaWannabe in the original and is bit of sucker later in the game after his machismo dries up. He’s also dismissive about the morality of working for Umbrella telling Jill "[[JustFollowingOrders He’s just a mercenary]]". In the remake Carlos is incredibly professional and while he’s not above flirting with Jill he’s still quite respectful and admiring of her. His attitude towards Umbrella is different when he learns Jill was completely right about them and is ashamed of himself and the fact Jill trusted him regardless.
** Brad is a textbook DirtyCoward in the original game and shows no real concern for fellow S.T.A.R.S member Jill and only cares about his own skin when the zombies horde shows up. This makes his death at the spiked tentacle of Nemesis more karmic. In the remake Brad has a much braver personality, not only does he warn Jill about Nemesis’s attack but he also holds a door closed against the horde giving Jill a chance to escape and [[HeroicSacrifice gets himself turned]] in the process.
** Nikolai was a stoic villain in the original, he’s pretty polite to Jill and even when showing his true colours is still fairly AffablyEvil since he has nothing against Jill personally. In the remake Nikolai is a repulsive SmugSnake who delights in multiple KickTheDog moments with Jill including locking a traincart so she can’t escape Nemesis, stomping her fingers when she’s dangling from a platform and destroying the cure to the T-Virus right in front of her.
** Tyrell from what little characterisation he gets in his one scene in the original is a paranoid grunt who threatens to kill Carlos in the hospital. In the remake he’s more likeable being BashBrothers with Carlos and shows compassionate and selfless traits when he aids Jill in the finale [[spoiler: before Nemesis kills him]].
* The ''VideoGame/Shrek2'' game heavily modified Literature/LittleRedRidingHood's personality from how she was portrayed in [[WesternAnimation/Shrek2 the movie]] to justify making her a playable character. In the movie, she had little character beyond being afraid of ogres and otherwise appeared to be a normal little girl. In the game, she (now renamed Lil' Red) was reinvented as a spunky, sarcastic, tomboyish softball pitcher who isn't afraid to sass villains and is good friends with Shrek, Fiona and Donkey.
* When he created ''ComicBook/SpiderMan2099'', Creator/PeterDavid decided to make Miguel O'Hara a ContrastingSequelMainCharacter, keeping quiet and being serious when as Spider-Man. ''VideoGame/SpiderManShatteredDimensions'' presents its version of Miguel in a manner similar to most Peter Parker, quipping and making jokes in costume.
* The comic of ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' generally tones down the characters' personalities (though the Soldier gets {{Flanderized}}) - Heavy and Spy go from a boisterous BloodKnight and a smarmy JerkAss (respectively) to being almost 100% serious, for example. [[http://www.teamfortress.com/catchup/ The Catch-Up Comic]] attributes these differences to the game being a ''documentary'' portraying the events of the comics.
* In ''VideoGame/YuGiOhForbiddenMemories'', due to the game being released before Battle City came out, Ishizu/Isis and Priest Seto are majorly different than their manga and anime counterparts.

* ''Kirby's Avalanche'' for the SNES was ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyo'' with a ''{{Franchise/Kirby}}'' [[DolledUpInstallment coat of paint on it]].

** Renee Montoya in the comics and ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' was a supporter of Batman. In the Telltale game, she's against the Batman and tries to arrest him, though she's sympathetic to him as Bruce Wayne.
** Vicki Vale in the comics and most media is a compassionate IntrepidReporter who loves Bruce Wayne and sometimes Batman. [[spoiler: In game however she despises Bruce for atrocities his father committed to her parents and Gotham in general which led to her being orphaned and abused and becoming a TragicVillain.

** John Doe aka ComicBook/TheJoker is of course vastly different from his MonsterClown ChaoticEvil comic counterpart (though the player can cause his StartOfDarkness). The biggest difference between the comic version is that Telltale Joker isn't self-driven caring greatly for those he's close to and are nice to him whereas comic Joker only "cares" for his beloved nemesis Batman and everyone else are just pawns and playthings.
** ComicBook/HarleyQuinn is a different beast from her animated and comic versions. In the Telltale game she's a cruel [[ManipulativeBitch manipulative bitch]] while she's CuteAndPsycho in other media and tends to have a compassionate side, albeit still highly mentally unstable and too prone to violence. In Telltale game she also effectively leads the RoguesGallery while in most comics Harely is too immature for that kind of position.

In the remake Carlos is incredibly professional and while he’s not above flirting with Jill he’s still quite respectful and admiring of her. His attitude towards Umbrella is different when he learns Jill was completely right about them and is ashamed of himself and the fact Jill trusted him regardless.

* ''VideoGame/DeltaRune'', the second game by ''Creator/TobyFox'' has multiple characters returning from his first game, ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}''. However due to ''Deltarune'' being in a different timeline and setting than ''Undertale'', there are some differences in the characters. Perhaps the most glaring one is the meek shut-in in the northern part of town, who is all but said to be none other than ''[[LargeHam Mettaton]]''. Likewise, Alphys leaves an "anonymous" glowing review in the library of ''Mew Mew Kissy Cutie 2'', favorably comparing it to the original in every respect; in ''Undertale'', she savaged it as a terrible sequel. Undyne has no clue who Alphys, her eventual lover in ''Undertale'', is. Bratty and Catty, two best friends, are also now hateful next-door neighbors.
* ''Videogame/{{BIONICLE}} Heroes'' took a comedic approach to its source material and redefined character personalities (as well as abilities) from scratch. Axonn, a devoted paragon of justice who repeatedly beat back the villainous Piraka [[AdaptationalVillainy became a thuggish bad guy]] in service of said group, the brilliant but impulsive Brutaka exchanged personalities with the slow dimwit Krekka, the likewise rather intelligent Thok similarly became a hapless goof (when Reidak already filled the role of "the dumb one" in canon), and the utterly no-nonsense, brooding Zaktan became a grinning, showoff LargeHam. Despite the game being completely detached from the main franchise and featuring canonically long-dead characters as enemies, it's still perplexing that the developers reinterpreted certain characters seemingly at random, instead of picking ones that would have fit the roles the developers had in mind.
* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfSpyro'': As a DarkerAndEdgier reboot of the ''VideoGame/SpyroTheDragon'' games, the trilogy ended up completely overhauling each of the three returning characters' personalities:
** Spyro himself goes from a [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold cocky and arrogant, but still heroic]] MascotWithAttitude to a much more mature, serious, near-{{Paragon}} level hero. In addition, classic Spyro was [[CelibateHero uninterested in romance]] (though the ''VideoGame/SpyroReignitedTrilogy'' gave him subtle feelings for Elora), while ''LOS'' Spyro hooks up with a female dragon called Cynder by [[LastMinuteHookUp the end of the trilogy]].
** Sparx remains Spyro's best friend, but he looks much more humanoid and goes from a capable ally who had his own levels in ''VideoGame/SpyroYearOfTheDragon'' [[AdaptationalWimp to a pure]] PluckyComicRelief. In addition, Sparx [[TheUnintelligible spoke entirely in buzzing]] in the classic series, but the ''LOS'' series made him SuddenlySpeaking for the entire trilogy.
** Hunter functioned as a PluckyComicRelief in the classic series (albeit one who gradually TookALevelInBadass), but the ''LOS'' series makes him a {{stoic}} AdaptationalBadass who saves Spyro and Cynder a few times throughout the third game.
* In ''VideoGame/TheGreatGianaSisters'', Giana is a cheeky teenager. In the ''VideoGame/GianaSistersDS'' reboot, she is a cute cheerful child.
* The ''VideoGame/Shrek2'' game heavily modified Literature/LittleRedRidingHood's personality from how she was portrayed in [[WesternAnimation/Shrek2 the movie]] to justify making her a playable character. In the movie, she had little character beyond being afraid of ogres and otherwise appeared to be a normal little girl. In the game, she (now renamed Lil' Red) was reinvented as a spunky, sarcastic, tomboyish softball pitcher who isn't afraid to sass villains and is good friends with Shrek, Fiona and Donkey.

* ''ComicBook/JemAndTheHolograms'':

*** Cloud comes across as a darker and much more emotionally repressed character than in the original due to more low-intensity physical acting, a generally more serious tone, and the removal of a lot of the choices players could make about his behaviour. In the original, Cloud had the option to hit on the girls or respond with enthusiasm or honesty to his friends, but in ''Remake'', he always tries to push girls away and coldly rejects other people. The original presented Cloud's personality as very theatrical and overconfident, with [[GoingThroughTheMotions continuous hair-flipping and pose-striking]] while in Remake he is more based around the idea of constantly holding back his emotions, displaying extreme anxiety when forced to go outside of his emotional comfort zone. ''Remake'' also adds a subplot that the magical treatments that gave Cloud his strength has [[CastFromLifespan drastically shortened his lifespan]], which isn't indicated in the original and explains his stronger reticence to get involved with people. It's worth observing Cloud's character development in ''Remake'' still takes him up to the point he was at by the end of the Midgar section in the original, with him becoming much more expressive and earnest, [[BeneathTheMask dropping his mask in a vision of Aerith]] and [[GayBravado doing cocky poses while flirting with Rufus]]. Not to mention the dance sequence Cloud partakes in the Honey Bee Inn, which is right in line with the goofy situations Cloud got in the original game.

*** Tifa in the original game (in stark contrast with her wardrobe) was pretty shy about expressing her own feelings, (particularly towards Cloud) and in general was empathetic and [[TeamMom motherly]]. It also helps that she keeps the knowledge about Zack hidden from Cloud throughout most of the game to save him the from mental anguish of TheReveal. In the ''Remake'' Tifa is much more outgoing as she actively helps people in the Section 7, is quite sultry and flirtatious when serving Cloud drinks (and doesn’t shy away from hugging or holding onto him) and is quite bold when comes to her ActionGirl skills claiming to Cloud, “You’ve seen how much ass I can kick”. Although ironically ''Remake'' Tifa does have more {{Angst}} than the original as she [[BrokenBird completely]] [[BreakTheCutie breaks down]] at destruction of Sector 7 unlike the original game where she remained strong and consoled Barret who was the distraught one.

** In the cartoon Rio is very overprotective of Jerrica, gets jealou easily, and is in a TwoPersonLoveTriangle with Jem/Jerrica. In the comics he's taken a serious chill pill, doesn't even like Jem at first, and is only romantically interested in Jerrica.

** Sor, religious leader and off-screen antagonist, is now given screentime equal to Aton. He seems to encourage archeology and preparations for the coming Darkness, but he is still obsessed with his cult, and ritualistically blinds his followers by having hawks eat their eyes.

** Vergil's personalty also differs from his canon portrayal where he is a NobleDemon who values honor, in the reboot Vergil is a BitchInSheepsClothing who wants to enslave humanity after Mundus gets defeated. Canon Vergil also believes GunsAreWorthless while in the reboot he happily uses a sniper rifle to abort Lilith's demon baby.

*** Barret in ''Remake'' comes off as consistently more well-balanced, socially responsible and smarter. In the original, Biggs, Wedge and most of the rest of the people of Sector 7 are terrified of him, with their awe of Cloud being linked in part to the fact that Cloud is able to stand up to him. Barret's also shown using much more physical violence, beating Biggs and intimidating other people by firing his weapon and bashing holes in walls, crates and, apparently, destroying Sector 7's communal TV by shooting it to pieces. The Remake Barret is AFatherToHisMen and popular in town for being a reliable local toughguy who helps out with various local causes, and while he still has a powerful temper he is detached enough to make wry fun of Cloud, and even consciously imitate him when need be. The original game had a couple of scenes that indicated Barret had a scholarly side to him, like his enthusiasm at going to Cosmo Canyon and making a reference to Buddhist literature which didn't translate, but in ''Remake'' he quotes Planetology texts and is [[BadassBookworm visibly overwhelmed with delight when seeing the Shinra library]].

** A LostInTranslation example: in the [[AmericanKirbyIsHardcore English translation]], some of Lucina's victory quotes (specifically "This is the Hero-King?" and "And this is the Radiant Hero?", when she wins against [[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Marth]] and [[VideoGame/FireEmblemRadiantDawn Ike]] respectively) are delivered in a far more condescending way than she would ever act in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'', much less towards ''legendary heroes'', or how the same lines are delivered in the Japanese version, which convey deep respect.

* ''Fanfic/TheBrokenHouse'': In [[WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse the show]], Mrs. Johnson is relatively chill. ''This'' Mrs. Johnson yells in all-caps at the top of a hat and views any sort of disagreeing with her as "arguing".
[[/folder]]

* As a DarkerAndEdgier reboot of the ''VideoGame/SpyroTheDragon'' series, ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfSpyro'' ended up completely overhauling each of the three returning characters' personalities:

** Annette Birkin isn't a one-note MadScientist who's insanely loyal to husband's genius, she's horrified over what's happened to the city and is actually trying to destroy remaining T-Virus samples herself, which brings her into conflict with Ada who wants to steal them. Annette also cares greatly for her daughter Sherry in this version and claims her life is not Claire's concern and while she does write Sherry off as dead at one point she still saves her from infection at the end and apologizes for being a terrible mother, in the original Anette [[ParentalNeglect neglects Sherry]] throughout.

** Jill gets the most of this, even compared the aforementioned protagonists Leon and Claire. In the original Jill was cool and confident throughout the game displaying little angst beyond a hatred of Umbrella and a little sadness that the people of Raccoon City didn’t have the strength to stop them. In the remake Jill is quite moody, swears at Carlos and has severe PTSD due to the Spencer Mansion incident and has nightmares about zombifying.

*** Jean in the 616 universe is a compassionate person but also [[BewareTheNiceOnes someone who will protect her loved ones fiercely]] as Sabretooth discovered the hard way. Ultimate Jean is a {{Tomboy}} who is very quick to abuse her powers and too eager dish out DisproportionateRetribution such as swapping Wolverine's mind with poor Spider-Man simply because former hit on her too many times. Not to mention she admonishes Spidey for picturing her naked [[ThoughtAversionFailure even when she's the one who put the thought in his head in the first place]]. 616 Jean never reads people’s minds without permission.

** The Phantom (named Erik in the book) is the most blatant, in the novel he’s a TragicMonster with the empathise on the “monster” part and his behaviour makes him out to be a PsychoticManchild even regarding his obsession with Christine. In the musical The Phantom is ridiculously sensual and is far less malicious than his book counterpart whom was willingly to blow up half of Paris if Christine refuses his ScarpiaUltimatum. The musical version limits himself to just strange Christine’s LoveInterest Raoul instead. Webber even makes The Phantom the hero in the [[Theatre/LoveNeverDies sequel]] which ironically was treated with CanonDiscontinuity by even diehard fans of the musical.
** Christine is a textbook case of TheIngenue in the musical and her passive StockholmSyndrome concerning her abduction at The Phantom’s hands is exaggerated to the point where she hardly resists to his machinations and emotional manipulation. This is in contrast to the book where Christine is a PluckyGirl who’s described as “strong” in the text and whom does her best to not only escape from The Phantom but protect Raoul from him as well. Her relationship with The Phantom is also more consensual in musical with Christine being captivated by his music. In the book she trusts him at first when he thinks he’s the Angel of Music sent by her dead father but is completely horrified at learning the truth and while Christine does pity him she still tries to kill herself when faced the prospect of marrying him.
** Raoul in the book is quite a complicated character. He struggles in the first half of the book to be a polite gentleman when Christine repeatedly keeps him at arms distance and refuses to tell him anything about her mysterious tutor or rekindle their [[ChildHoodFriendRomance childhood romance]]. This results in Raoul following Christine around, jump to jealous conclusions and generally be whiny and possessive brat about her. He only simmers down when Christine tells him everything. The musical version? He’s a NiceGuy who cares about Christine... [[FlatCharacter that’s it]].

** Leon is also somewhat different from the original game, like Claire he tends [[PrecisionFStrike F-Bomb when troubled]] and he's more stoic than his naive 1998 version. The biggest change however is that Leon is far less gullible in the remake as seen when Ada uses her [[TheVamp feminine wiles to manipulate him]], in the original he's duped completely but in the remake Leon turns against Ada immediately when he learns from Annette that she's not a FBI agent and is notably quite pissed off. Remake Leon is not above a few quips and even gives a BringIt to Mr X in the FinalBattle.

** Annette Birkin isn't a one-note MadScientist whose insanely loyal to husband's genius, she's horrified over what's happened to the city and is actually trying to destroy remaining T-Virus samples herself, which brings her into conflict with Ada who wants to steal them. Annette also cares greatly for her daughter Sherry in this version and claims her life is not Claire's concern and while she write Sherry off as dead at one point she still saves her from infection at the end and apologizes for being a terrible mother, in the original Anette [[ParentalNeglect neglects Sherry]] throughout.

In the remake Jill is quite moody, swears at Carlos and has severe PTSD due to the Spencer Mansion incident and has nightmares about zombifying.

* In ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' series, the Zora are traditionally depicted as regal FishMen, while the Gerudo are DesertBandits ([[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask and in one case]], pirates), respectively. ''VideoGame/CadenceOfHyrule'', a {{Rougelike}} SpinOff installment, abandons this in favor of making them a group of laid-back {{Surfer Dude}}s and a DesertPunk community of inquisitive scavenger-scientists, respectively.

** Claire is a bit different from her 1998 counterpart. She's still looking for brother Chris and still cares about Sherry and Leon but this version of Claire [[SirSwearsAlot swears like a sailor]], gets aggressive and angry when upset (as seen with Annette), has flirtatious and awkward rapport with Leon and shows more enthusiasm about taking on giant eyeball monsters and Umbrella. She also comes close to tears after after Elliot is ripped apart in front of her and apologies to his corpse for being unable to save him. Given Claire is only 19, this can be chalked up to AgeAppropriateAngst.

** Nikolai was a stoic villain in the original, he’s pretty polite to Jill and even when showing his true colours is still fairly AffablyEvil since he has nothing against Jill personally. In the remake Nikolai is a repulsive SmugSnake who delights in multiple KickTheDog moments with Jill including locking a traincart so she can’t escape Nemesis, stomping her fingers when she’s dangling from a platform and destroying the cure to T-Virus right in front of her.

*** Emma Frost in the Ultimate Universe is a pacifist whose willingly to teach human students, in the 616 universe Emma is often a WellIntentionedExtremist whose got many Anti-Human sentiments.

* In ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' series, the Zora are traditionally depicted as regal FishMen, while the Gerudo are DesertBandits ([[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask and in one case]], pirates), respectively.

** Claire Redfield is a bit different from her 1998 counterpart. She's still looking for brother Chris and still cares about Sherry and Leon but this version of Claire [[SirSwearsAlot swears like a sailor]], gets aggressive and angry when upset (as seen with Annette), has flirtatious and awkward rapport with Leon and is more enthusiastic about taking down Umbrella.
