FunTranscript
00:00 Welcome to Mojo Plays and today we're looking over the video game characters that made us
00:09 fall head over heels for them every step of the way.
00:16 Before we begin, we publish new content all week long, so be sure to subscribe and ring
00:21 the bell to get notified about our latest videos.
00:25 Zid, Potionomics.
00:34 Life as a potion shop owner can be tricky and taxing, but one of the major upsides is
00:38 that it lets you encounter all manner of eager adventurers looking to make you their paramour.
00:44 Such is the case with Zid, the most rock and roll bard you're likely to meet.
00:51 She's chill, down to earth and fighting to give her songs more meaning to inspire those
00:56 around her.
00:57 Serving as her muse not only lets her reach new heights as a musician, but it won't be
01:01 long before you're making sweet music of your own.
01:08 Judy Cyberpunk 2077
01:16 Night City has no shortage of romance options, if you're looking to indulge in some carnal
01:20 chrome action, but for our eddies, there's only one that truly captured our hearts.
01:26 And no, it's not Keanu.
01:35 Judy is as sweet as she is spicy, having no choice but to carve a living for herself in
01:39 the city's underbelly.
01:40 Her subplot is some of Cyberpunk's best, in terms of writing and characterisation.
01:45 Unwilling to let the world steal her soul, yet always ready to fight in the face of injustice,
01:50 she had us smitten from the first Braindance.
02:02 Yennefer The Witcher 3 - Wild Hunt
02:05 We're taking a side here, and as much as we enjoy Triss, Yennefer is just way too captivating.
02:16 Not too hard given her proficiency as a sorceress.
02:19 As elegant as she is dangerous, Yenne is Geralt's long lost love, and while their fates were
02:23 bound by the wish of a djinn, it's all too clear to see that their relationship is the
02:28 real magic.
02:29 Whether it be battling the wild hunt, navigating political gauntlets, or bumping hips atop
02:35 the stuff unicorn, Yenne is enchanting in every sense of the word.
02:47 Megara - Hades While many will swear by best boy Thanatos
03:00 until the day they actually die, there's no escaping from the sensual lethality of
03:05 this fury.
03:06 Whether she's testing Zagreus' skill as a boss battle, or slowly thawing her ice
03:10 queen facade with every ambrosia offered, Meg is magnetic.
03:20 The connection she shares with Zag is genuinely sweet at times, though rest assured when she
03:25 wants to turn up the heat, you won't be able to resist.
03:29 Whether it be from her voice, or her whip.
03:31 Aphrodite who?
03:37 Makoto - Persona 5 Joker may attract the ladies easier than he
03:50 does actual personas, but among the roster of confidants willing to give their heart
03:54 to the phantom thief, there's only one queen.
04:01 Not only is Makoto a beast on the battlefield, but outside of their metaverse exploits, she's
04:06 also a great companion to be around.
04:08 Her desire to prove herself, the baggage she carries, her slow willingness to let another
04:12 help carry the weight, there's so much to love about her.
04:16 Plus she rides a motorcycle made of metaphysical nuclear energy.
04:19 Instant wife material.
04:31 Edelgard - Fire Emblem Three Houses
04:43 Tragic heroine, unrepentant villain, or something between the two, Edelgard wears many faces
04:48 throughout all three routes of Fire Emblem's most celebrated entry.
04:52 For those that followed the path of the Black Eagle, they weren't only greeted with a stalwart
04:56 companion who would do whatever it took to overcome the corruption of both the church
05:01 and those working in the shadows, but also a whirlwind romance that would endure time
05:05 jumps, war zones and everything else thrown at them.
05:09 Justified in her actions or not, Edelgard was someone we'd happily burn the old world
05:13 down for.
05:23 Garrus - Mass Effect Series
05:35 The Man, The Myth, The Calibrator
05:38 To say Garrus might just be the most desirable man in the known universe would be an understatement.
05:43 Starting off as an officer infuriated by his inability to do more, he would soon go on
05:48 to become one of Shepard's most loyal crewmates, one that could potentially become something
05:52 far more over the course of the trilogy.
05:55 From his sniper skills, to his dance moves, to his iconic voice, to his reach and flexibility,
06:00 Garrus is the Turian bad boy that caused many a femship to fall in love hard and fast.
06:13 Camilla - Divinity, Dragon Commander
06:23 If there's one thing that Larian Studios excels in, it's crafting engaging romantic
06:28 arcs for their characters.
06:29 As the bastard son of an assassinated emperor, it falls to the titch of a commander to satisfy
06:34 the political and economical needs of the civilised races, which also happens to involve
06:39 getting married to a princess.
06:41 Among the possible contenders for the crown, we happen to find Camilla the most compelling.
06:46 Yes, the lizard is best girl, not only because we get to see her prickly attitude believably
06:53 shift over various interactions, but also her profession as a judge added some much
06:58 needed weight and consequence to the whole affair.
07:00 Lore, Order, Romance and Dragons - who would have guessed they went so well together?
07:11 The Iron Bull - Dragon Age Inquisition
07:13 He's a qunari who likes the simple things in life - fighting dragons, drinking with
07:29 his chargers and breaking beds with a certain inquisitor.
07:33 And yet for all that, Bull is so much more than just a walking tank who happens to enjoy
07:37 playing the dominant in the bedroom.
07:39 Between his confliction over following the way of the qun, the hilarious banter, as well
07:43 as deciding to fully give himself to his precious cadan, he proved himself a fascinating character,
07:49 capable of breaking the conventions that had defined him for so long.
07:52 No wonder so many wanted to ride the Bull.
08:00 Karlak - Baldur's Gate 3
08:08 Larian Strikes Again - and this time they gave us one of the greatest characters in
08:12 modern gaming in the process.
08:14 Despite being betrayed, sold to a demon overlord, having her heart replaced with an infernal
08:19 engine that essentially turns her into a time bomb, as well as getting a mind flayer tadpole
08:24 in her head, Karlak remains the most charming and optimistic tiefling barbarian you are
08:28 ever likely to meet.
08:30 She's sweet, she's endlessly compassionate, and yes, will incinerate anyone who threatens
08:37 those she loves.
08:38 No other romance will have you quite literally willing to leap into hell quite like Karlak.
08:46 Which video game character are you engaged to?
