Character »
A protagonist who lacks some or all of the qualities traditionally seen as heroic.
Bookworms are the characters who always have their face buried between the pages of a book. It doesn't matter if it's a mystic spellbook or just a tattered paperback, they'd rather read about an epic adventure than have one.
This concept is for games in which at least one of the main characters is male.
Sequels that have the player controlling a different character than the preceding game(s).
Any character you can control in a game is a Player Character (PC), as opposed to a non-player character (NPC), which is a character that can only be controlled by the game.
Puzzles may need to be solved before the player can progress to the next section of the game. Often it may not be clear to players exactly what the puzzle is, or whether the an in-game items needs to be attained before it is even possible to solve it.
A character that appears in many games, often unrelated. For an example, Cid from the Final Fantasy series.
Many games feature a story which involves saving the world and its inhabitants, often single handedly.
The concept of a character leaping forwards or backwards in time.
