Guess the VG Character

Go To

This is a thread on guessing video game characters.

  • They can come from any video game.
  • If a media source is played in one round, it is allowed to be played in the next round.
The current descriptor must post a recap of the progress for every new page, and edit that post accordingly with the progress in the page.
  • A player may declare a stump after 24 hours has passed from the last question and its answer. If this happens, the current descriptor reveals their character and posts their image, and the next round goes to the stumped player.
  • If a question needs to be replaced because it has already been answered, please do not erase the question. Just add the new question below it. In fact, the act of completely erasing a question is frowned upon.
  • If you're adding a clue, please keep it related on video games, as detailed below.
  • Recaps must be posted on every page in a timely manner.
  • The info in those recaps must not be ignored. This rule and the one above it are added to prevent confusion.
  • If there is no new round within 48 hours, anyone except the previous host may start a new round.
  • What counts as playable characters?:

If there's any questions or further suggestions, let me know!

Greetings, friend. I'm Cave Johnson, CEO of Aperture Science - you might know us as a vital participant in the 1968 Senate Hearings on missing astronauts.

Round 355: Cave Johnson (Portal 2)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Portal_Cave_Johnson_2626.png

The founder and owner of Aperture Science, Mr. Johnson here has no business running a company- let alone one devoted to technology and research.

He prides himself on a very warped idea of what "science" even entails, with most of his company's "tests" being haphazard at best in regards to their human test subjects. His pride led to him exclusively hiring astronauts, veterans, and Olympian athletes as test subjects back in the 50's; this already cost the company a fortune, and their finances dwindled further fending off a federal investigation into those astronauts vanishing.

From that point on, Aperture spent the rest of its existence under Cave in the red, and he'd resort to kidnapping the homeless to find test subjects; in the 80's, they would permanently switch to just using the company's own employees instead.

The lesson here? If you're a tech company, make sure your company's CEO actually has a background in STEM. And human ethics.

~RWBYraikou888 is up next!
