Well-written female characters in video-games

I don't want to be that person but it's bad form to just say "females", we generally use it as "female characters" or "female protagonists"
I'd say Ashe from Final Fantasy XII personally. Love her character. She is flawed, condescending, but that makes her arc better. She has her own personality and her own ambition and she really commands the story on her own terms instead of being seen through the lens of someone else.

Can we not use the word "females" to refer to women, please?
Beyond that, I like Elena Fisher from Uncharted a lot. She starts off as typical "supporting female lead" in UC1 but she grows a LOT over the course of the series.
Sadie Adler is also really great.

Yeeeeah, I was gonna say. This shit never hits my ear right.
Yup, Estelle Bright is incredibly well written. Probably my favorite video game character ever.
Y'all, please don't just drop names. Specially with pedestrian ass names like Elena. At least specify where they're from lol
Anyway, may be a controversial choice but I found Edelgard from Fire Emblem Three Houses to be fascinating.
I love Estelle so much

Hoping a mod could change the thread title.
Playing Xenoblade 2 right now and i like Mòrag. Very stately and she is pretty good at being a balance point between diplomacy and being a good person.

I think this is a sort of answer to the attractive male thread.

This, TLJ is a really well written game overall. I like Zoe Castillo in Dreamfall as well. They're written as actual human beings. Which, unfortunately, is not that common for video game characters.
Lots of good characters in Andromeda. I ended up really liking that short haired lady that you reported to when completing a planet. She was a butt but she valued the work. Also the Kogran lady in the main ship.
You should with these folks vying each other constantly for points
The semantics of "female" are a very common point in discussions of women, especially as of late. It's an expected 101.

Wow OP this thread title is really offensive. Can a mod change it? There is no hyphen in "video games"!!
I think in this context it makes sense you can have female gendered characters i.e. robots ect that aren't actual women but are still female in representation. I get where your coming from but in this context I think it makes sense. Not all female characters are also women.
Then write the thread title as "Well-written female characters". That's the issue. "Females" is a really weird phrase.
Valkyrie Profile's ladies (plural)
This gif sold me on the entire game. Is it available on current consoles?
Calling people "females" or "males" irks me off, not just me right? Feels a little dehumanizing.
Best way to play with typical controls is on the PSP ..... yeah, I know.
It's also available on mobile devices as well.
Worth it, it's a fantastic game with some incredible combat and dungeoning. But if you DO play, use a guide for how to get the best ending because its requirements are obtuse as hell.
I look forward to your posts in the attractive males in video-games thread.
