Heroic Mime	comment	All too often in video games, it seems like designers feel that the best way to get players to relate to the main character is to have said character have absolutely no dialogue at all. Even though you can't say a word, it seems like every NPC around you instantly understands what you need like you're Lassie or something. Heroic Mime is a video game-specific variant of The Voiceless or The Speechless. In many RPGs, the main hero doesn't seem to talk (Visible Silence might be used). The official explanation for this is that the main character is the player, and dialogue would either interfere with the player's train of thought or knock them out of the viewpoint of that character (compare the Featureless Protagonist). An aversion of this would be to allow the player to actually talk to the characters through a microphone or the AI be able to comprehend any text entered, but this is beyond current technology, except in online games where you're talking to other players instead of AIs â€” or through the limited means of a Dialogue Tree. Some characters might be like this when under the player's control, but perfectly normal and talking characters as Non Player Characters, or even just when they aren't the leader of the group. And some characters do talk when the player chooses how to answer a question. Nevertheless, this often results in the fandom discussing whether or not a character is mute. Most of the time when somebody makes a Novelization or a Webcomic of the Game, odds are that it'll have the character speak in Visible Silence and be treated as The Silent Bob. This trope can get very frustrating when the character has, for example, undergone a Forced or Emergency Transformation, and has allies who weren't there to see it. It's also hard to grow too fond of a Heroic Mime since they don't show thoughts or feelings that can't be expressed with grunts, sighs, and body language. This is one thing when they're fighting all alone, without so much as an Exposition Fairy or a Voice with an Internet Connection to listen to, but when there are other characters around it's a different story. Even The Stoic says something. One common variation of this is to suggest that the main character actually does speak, we just can't hear them or see their text boxes. However, the other characters in the game can, and we can sometimes infer what was said from their reactions. It helps that such characters, when presented dialogue choices, the choices are full, comprehensible dialogue lines instead of simply "Yes" or "No" answers. Another common variation used to compromise between immersion and characterization is to allow the player character to speak, but only during non-interactive cutscenes. Another variation of this trope can be when this get Hand-Waved and Justified if the player character turns out to be actually mute. As in, they canonically have a condition or disability that makes them incapable of speech. That way, thereâ€™s an actual, logical in-universe reason for why they never talk, because they were never able to speak to begin with. And if the writers want to give the protagonist some characterization, it can be via sign language (with subtitles), thought bubbles, Talking with Signs, specific Body Language cues, and so on. How well you take this trope can often depend on how you approach video games in general. If you like to imagine you "are" the character, as the developers seem to expect, it could arguably increase immersion. On the other hand, many players prefer to imagine themselves in a role similar to that of a movie director; controlling the action without being a part of it. To them, having a Heroic Mime is like being saddled with a boring, wooden actor in the lead role. In more plot-heavy games, they will often be paired with an Exposition Fairy who does the talking for them. Is not the opposite of Monster Clown or Enemy Mime. This trope occasionally crops up in other media, but it may be more difficult to pull off unless done comedically. They may or may not be an Audience Surrogate. See Silent Antagonist, for when the villain is like this. Being a Heroic Mime does not necessarily preclude Voice Grunting or Speaking Simlish. This trope is often used in conjunction with an Unbroken First-Person Perspective.

Heroic Mime / int_169f043b	comment	The original commanders in StarCraft are all silent and nameless (only referred to by their title: Magistrate/Commander, Cerebrate and Executor), and hence don't really have much say in their comrades' actions. The Protoss Executor was retconned to be Artanis while the Terran and Zerg commanders appear to have been removed from continuity entirely, replaced by Raynor and Kerrigan acting independently. For clarification. Both the Zerg Commanders were Cerebrates, the one in the main game was killed by Zeratul, the one during Brood War would have been likely killed off by Kerrigan after the events of the Brood War. The Terran Commander of the main game was the Magistrate of Mar Sara, in a novel s/he was stated to have left Raynor's Raiders after escaping from Mengsk. The Terran Commander in Brood War was a UED Captain who either died to Kerrigan's Swarm or managed to be one of the few survivors. The Protoss Commander of Brood War has yet to be elaborated upon (as Artanis only returned to an executor position during the last mission of the game), though there's a theory in the fandom that it could have been Selendis (who is introduced in StarCraft II as Artanis's protege).

Heroic Mime / int_2192aeb3	comment	The Fire Emblem games have done this on three occasions: The Tactician in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade is a straight example of The Silent Bob (but is more of a NPC Mime than a Heroic Mime, since he's not directly playable and Eliwood, Hector and Lyn all have more story presence than him). The original Japanese release of Fire Emblem: Awakening plays this strangely; when creating your customizable Avatar, AKA Robin, you're given several voice options, one of which is 'silent', which causes them to become a Heroic Mime. This didn't make it into the localization, and is actually non-canon (as Robin is shown speaking in Fire Emblem Heroes and other games, e.g. Super Smash Bros.). The protagonist of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Byleth, is a Heroic Mime, as they're never voiced during cutscenes. They do have dialogue options, they have voiced lines during battle, and a few times their inner monologue is shown but not voiced. When you combine all that with what other characters say about the protagonist during the storyline, it's clear that they do have a canon personality. They're a seemingly emotionless character who cares about others more than they let on. Like Robin, Byleth speaks in Heroes and Smash.

Heroic Mime / int_223c2a48	comment	The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Link remains silent despite the game introducing full voice acting for certain characters. This time, his silence is justified: the burden of being The Chosen One and all the high expectations for him to succeed has led him to put on a stoic front and hide his emotions; Mipha, who knew him as a child, comments that "he hardly speaks anymore". His general silence is noted in Zelda's and Mipha's diaries, and Teba also brings up what he interprets as Link's nervous silence before the battle against Vah Medoh. However, the dialogue options do make a comeback from Skyward Sword, and it seems that, no matter how heavy his burden is, Link will take advantage of snarking his way through everything. Sometimes Link can get forced choices with only one dialogue option to choose from, making the trope downplayed.

If Adrian were ever to return to series (please?) it's most probable he would finally be able to speak as well. Blue Shift goes out of its way to make it clear that Barney is in fact speaking, but that we simply can't hear him. The Half-Life: Opposing Force tutorial does the same with Adrian: "What is your name, soldier?!... SOUND OFF LIKE YOU GOT A PURPOSE!... Corporal Shephard, eh?" Unique from the others, not only we never hear Adrian speaking but we don't even see his face, as he's wearing a gas mask during all of his screentime and no concept art exists either, except this pre-release image◊.

Heroic Mime / int_28b53408	comment	In First Encounter Assault Recon, the Point Man is both unnamed and never speaks, despite having a radio. The other FEAR operatives respond to this by talking about you in the 3rd person while you are listening in and in the loading screens. In the sequel F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, main character Michael Becket also never speaks. If he could speak and report his findings to his squad, quite a few of their problems would have probably been avoided. In the DLC F.E.A.R. 2: Reborn, the main character Replica Foxtrot 813 can be heard responding to other Replicas during the first third of the DLC. However, after his first encounter with Fettel, where he desperately calls for backup while fighting off hallucinations (which turns out to have been him going crazy and slaughtering the rest of his squad), he stops talking. Foxtrot 813 speaks in a normal (although slightly deeper) Replica voice, but his last spoken words are in a voice which strongly resembles Paxton Fettel's. Pointman still doesn't speak in F.E.A.R. 3, he seems to communicate solely with glaring and nondescript facial expressions. Nobody even notices that half the time those expressions are directed at Fettel's ghost, who none of the other NPCs in cutscenes can even see. Becket, however, returns from the second game, and he does get to speak this time. Paxton Fettel is an aversion, even when you get to control him in F.E.A.R. 3.

While he never has non-player-chosen dialogue in cutscenes, he's actually quite talkative, and in fact this is a major gameplay aspect for recruiting demons. While out in the field, with few people to talk to, all his lines occur in Demon Negotiation unless he's receiving instructions from other Strike Team members in the area; during plot scenes, he will restrict himself to choosing from several alignment-defining options, but is otherwise The Stoic as far as the crew is concerned. He has no voiced lines during dialogue sections and cutsecnes however, but in Redux has all of his lines in combat voiced where he is very talkative, yelling multiple orders and attacks to his demons as is instructed of military officers to do so. He does far more than just Calling Your Attacks.

Heroic Mime / int_2e97466d	comment	Adol from the Ys RPG series always has his dialogue summed up in the third person; for example, "Adol explains what he saw at the shrine". He also speaks once in Ys II: Ancient Ys Vanished â€“ The Final Chapter: "Wait! I Was Once a Man, Dalles turned me into a monster." Ys III: Wanderers From Ys gives Adol many lines of his own in the original version. The new age remake Ys: The Oath in Felghana changed that to bring it more in line with the rest of the series. In the PC Engine CD version, where most characters are voiced, he only speaks in text. He has one speaking line in Ys SEVEN, when he's switched in as the active character he will say "All right!" This game even gives you an option to turn even that off, so he's completely silent, adhering to tradition. Itâ€™s downplayed in Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana. During gameplay, Adol does have some voiced lines, but during cutscenes, what little dialog he has is almost always either shown in third person narration, or dialog options. There are two occasions where he does speak normally, once when he gives a speech to the party right before a boss battle, then again at a climactic moment near the end, though you still get to choose his dialog. The game has sections of you temporarily controlling Dana, who averts this trope. Even the Ys anime has Adol silent and a third-person narration explain what he says. Yunica Tovah and Hugo and Toal Fact from Ys Origin avert this trope. In Ys IX: Monstrum Nox both Adol and the second Adol in the prison are silent, Voice Grunting aside. However, when they meet, the fake one speaks, while the real one doesn't. The fake one then gets absorbed, and then Adol proceeds to remain silent for the rest of the game. Averted completely by Atra Nox Philius, Adol's godlike evil clone.

Heroic Mime / int_2f203125	comment	Both the main Shin Megami Tensei series and its various sub-series (Digital Devil Saga, Persona, etc.) use this. Persona 2 has a variation of the trope. The main characters of Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment (Tatsuya and Maya, respectively) are party members in the other's game. Each one is mute in the game where he/she is the protagonist, while being able to talk in the other game. Anyone who played both versions can confirm the strangeness of hearing a previously mute character talk, which is quite interesting. This is stranger with Maya, who in Innocent Sin is established as being chatty and scatterbrained, but doesn't utter a peep in Eternal Punishment (other than the occasional player-selected responses). At least Tatsuya always maintains his calm, cold personality, even when he starts talking. The protagonist of Persona 3 is a borderline example who seems to be The Quiet One in-universe more than a straight-up Heroic Mime, rather befitting his Emo Teen design. He'll call out the names of Personas and has a few lines when using items in battle, and the player must make him respond to other people's dialogue, but he never speaks more than one sentence at a time and his dialogue options are usually laconic and blunt. Around SEES, he's generally rather quiet, sticking to one-on-one conversations with the rest of the cast; he can be seen engaging in small talk every now and then, but his actual dialogue is never heard. The alternate female protagonist's dialogue prompts paint her as significantly less quiet and more cheery, but her conversations with characters aside from player-chosen prompts are similarly glossed over. The use of battle tactics would suggest that the protagonists are commanding the rest of the party in real time, but the player never hears them. Meanwhile, Aigis in The Answer averts this completely and talks freely with visible text boxes, making her the first Megami Tensei protagonist to talk like this. The protagonist of Persona 4 similarly only has voice acted lines in battle when summoning his Persona, though some personality can also be gleaned from the dialogue options; he's a bit less curt in his dialogue options than the P3 hero, and the option of telling people to 'calm down' comes up repeatedly, almost to the point of it being a bit of a running joke. In a number of group situations and meetups, the protagonist is seen talking among the group quite casually and easily, although, again, this dialogue is simply glossed over. While spoken dialogue is almost non-existent, in-universe he's reasonably chatty. Downplayed even more with the protagonist of Persona 5, who has a tiny amount of voice-acted dialogue in major story cutscenes and interjects some brief lines when navigating menus, in battles, and exploring the world. The game's narration, while written with very little personality, is also presented in first person as his thoughts, rather than previous games that used second person (though narration is used far less often than Persona 3 and 4, with Morgana usually pointing things out instead). However, he still never voices his Dialogue Tree lines, never speaks with full text boxes like other characters, and has the fewest spoken lines of any named character in the game, despite being the one the audience spends 95% of the story with. In spite of that, he does have a clear personality: he's surprisingly Hot-Blooded, has some shades of being a Blood Knight, and even is a bit hammy. It's implied the reason he's rather quiet is from feigning meekness after the Miscarriage of Justice that got him landed in probation, in an attempt to keep his head down and avoid more trouble. Interestingly, he has far more frequent dialogue options in the new Confidant scenes added in Persona 5 Royal compared to the vanilla game. So far, he's the only protagonist that's remained silent in spinoff games; even in P5's anime adaptation, he's rather quiet. Adaptations and spinoffs tend to zigzag this. The P4 protagonist speaks freely and rather frequently in the anime, manga, and spinoff games, while the P3 and 5 heroes tend to be more quiet. In Persona Q, the protagonist that is not chosen as the player character speaks freely, while the player-controlled one remains silent. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the P5 hero is, ironically, one of the talkiest members of the cast (though the nature of the game restricts most of his dialogue to general Trash Talk). In Q2, the female protagonist of 3 is presented as very chatty. Serph, the main character of Digital Devil Saga, does not make so much as a noise in the first game. He gets a sort of confused grunt near the beginning of the second, which may not be enough to prepare the player for the flashback sequence in which he is downright chatty. The talkative Serph in the flashback is not actually the player character, but the man (now dead) your Heroic Mime was based on. Your Serph is always silent. And it is actually a plot point, hammering the point the two are nothing alike. That said, Serph does have a few text options that are more than Yes or No. One of them even prompts hilarity from Heat. Subverted however, as Serph is just a silent Decoy Protagonist. He falls in the EGG and dies, then Gale and Sera take the spotlight and they talk with visible text boxes even as protagonists. And before the final dungeon, Serph fuses with Sera to become Seraph, who is a fully voiced character. Unlike many Megaten protagonists, however, Serph completely averts this trope in the novel adaptation Quantum Devil Saga: Avatar Tuner, where he has full dialogues and even his thoughts shown to the reader from the start. Most lines spoken by Gale in the game are spoken by Serph in the book, as the author Yu Godai herself said Gale was created just to speak the dialogue that was meant for Serph, and didn't want to include him in the book as Serph is not silent there. Unlike most protagonists from Persona adaptations, Serph is not Demoted to Extra, and not even The Quiet One in the book: Heat has less overall lines than him. This has the side effect of turning Gale into The Artifact in the novels, only there because he existed in the game as shown by the fact that Gale's real self does not even exist at all in the book continuity. The Protagonist of Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey downplays this trope. While he never has non-player-chosen dialogue in cutscenes, he's actually quite talkative, and in fact this is a major gameplay aspect for recruiting demons. While out in the field, with few people to talk to, all his lines occur in Demon Negotiation unless he's receiving instructions from other Strike Team members in the area; during plot scenes, he will restrict himself to choosing from several alignment-defining options, but is otherwise The Stoic as far as the crew is concerned. He has no voiced lines during dialogue sections and cutsecnes however, but in Redux has all of his lines in combat voiced where he is very talkative, yelling multiple orders and attacks to his demons as is instructed of military officers to do so. He does far more than just Calling Your Attacks. Flynn's voice lines from Shin Megami Tensei IV are limited to just saying Burroughs when he opens the menu and very rare bits of combat based dialogue. He does however have several bits of dialogue the player can choose that are important in driving the story. He is fully voiced in the sequel Apocalypse while Nanashi takes over as the heroic mime. Shin Megami Tensei V continues with this trope with the Nahobino, with Aogami serving as a Voice for the Voiceless and sometimes talking through his body. The Demi-Fiend is still this trope when you ifght him as a boss. The Protagonist of Devil Survivor is this as well; however, he has many dialogue options, some that can even influence events that take place. His default characterization seems to be stoicism, however, although with a hidden Deadpan Snarker tendency and a degree of Medium Awareness as he gives an Aside Glance to the player whenever they choose certain dialogue options. The Protagonist of Devil Survivor 2 is this as well, but his dialogue options are often expressive. He's more silent in the anime adaptation, where he's named Hibiki Kuze, than he is in the game! In the Raidou Kuzunoha games, Raidou only grunts when in battle. During conversations, his dialog tends to go like this: Raidou is Suddenly Voiced talks when met as a superboss in the secret dungeon of Soul Hackers. The actual protagonist of Soul Hackers doesn't speak however audibly, and is limited to choosing dialogue as is standard. Raidou is also Suddenly Voiced in the HD Remaster of Nocturne, but still lets Gotou do all the talking for him as opposed to Soul Hackers where he's chatty to that game's protagonists. His voiced lines come into play when he's summoning various demons, and in one cutscene, he's audibly chanting before being stopped by Gotou. For whatever reason however, he still Gotou do all the talking to the Demi-Fiend. Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE averts it with Itsuki Aoi, who speaks and has a fixed name despite mostly being a Supporting Protagonist. It's probably the consequence of the game being a crossover with Fire Emblem, which usually averts this trope. Soul Hackers 2 also averts this trope with Ringo, who is as chatty as other party members.

He does, however, take notes on his mission objectives in the main menu. According to the dev team, the debate between this approach and having Isaac speak continued right up to the game's launch. The only time he speaks proper is when he yells a distorted "Come on!" at the end when the door to the shuttle's bridge is locked. According to the aforementioned notes, Isaac has the expected reaction when trapped on a space station that's crawling with mutated undead. He's scared out of his mind. Isaac drops this in all subsequent games in the franchise, the dev team having apparently decided that the Heroic Mime trope wasn't working out very well.

She finally snaps in one of the three endings; after objecting enough to characters trying to force her to choose between two options, she finally yells "STOOOOOOOOOOOOP!" and goes off on a massive tirade about everyone telling her what to do, refuses both options, and tells everyone to shut up and leave her alone — including the game's narrator.

Heroic Mime / int_3b7abee2	comment	Gordon Freeman from the Half-Life series is one of the most famous. Being a Valve game, there is heavy Lampshade Hanging, with characters remarking that Gordon is a man of few words or offering to do the talking for him. He apparently also makes off-camera expressions that the Non Player Characters will react to (for example, viewing some of the objects in Black Mesa East will prompt different lines from Eli). He does, however, express concern over getting shot, burned, hitting the ground after a long fall and drowning with moans, grunts and other noises that living creatures use to make others know that they are, as a matter of fact, in pain. Barney is an example that speaks when the player isn't controlling them, as he doesn't say anything in Half-Life: Blue Shift yet is quite vocal in Half-Life 2 and Episode One. If Adrian were ever to return to series (please?) it's most probable he would finally be able to speak as well. Blue Shift goes out of its way to make it clear that Barney is in fact speaking, but that we simply can't hear him. The Half-Life: Opposing Force tutorial does the same with Adrian: "What is your name, soldier?!... SOUND OFF LIKE YOU GOT A PURPOSE!... Corporal Shephard, eh?" Unique from the others, not only we never hear Adrian speaking but we don't even see his face, as he's wearing a gas mask during all of his screentime and no concept art exists either, except this pre-release image◊. Oddly, we do get to hear the voices of Gina and Colette in Half-Life: Decay, though that might be because there are two of them. Finally averted in Half-Life: Alyx, where Alyx remains as talkative in gameplay as she was as an NPC in Half-Life 2, though the ending switches back to Gordon's perspective immediately after Episode Two, and he's still totally silent.

Heroic Mime / int_49a88442	comment	Final Fantasy XIV has the Warrior of Light talk a few times, but you never get to hear what they're saying. The only vocals you'll get is Voice Grunting â€” emotive cries paired with emotes (like laughing or cheering), shouts of effort in battle, and a dying gasp when knocked out. The game is also fairly self-aware of this and has a fair share of lampshades, both for comedy and for narrative. In one instance, Thancred is quite exasperated at how unemotive the Warrior of Light is in A Realm Reborn. However, the Heavensward storyline has the player character showing more emotion and having more dialogue choices that reflect their own character development, making them a mutable protagonist that's more than just a simple projection of the player. Played with to great effect throughout the Dark Knight job quests in Heavensward. The level 50 quest blows it open by revealing that your "job tutor" thus far has actually been a manifestation of your inner anger and frustrations, with the final battle of the quest having them transform from "Fray's faceless suit of armour" into a mirror image of yourself in the Dark Knight's Lv 60 gear. When the manifestation talks in this form, its nameplate uses your name to show that, in a way, it is you speaking. Of course, your actual character still doesn't talk, but there are strong implications (and the post-Shadowbringers quest confirms) that, from the perspective of the other NPCs you've interacted with thus far, you said everything that "Fray" said. Then lampshaded all to hell and back when Lord Hien struggles to find something to say to his victorious subjects, and the player can say "If you won't say anything, I will." The boss of the base game of Shadowbringers toys with this. The Warrior of Light says, out loud: "This world is not yours to end... This is our future. Our story." However, they say that with the voice of Ardbert, the Warrior's reflection from the First, regardless of the player's race or gender. It's unclear if it's Ardbert saying this through the Warrior or if the Warrior is also talking, but it's the only thing they say that has a voiced line. A quest in Endwalker plays with this. Zenos pulls a Grand Theft Me on the Warrior of Light, stealing their body and teleporting to Camp Broken Glass so that Zenos can kill the Scions of the Seventh Dawn. Despite this, Zenos never talks while in the Warrior's body. Even when giving a Hannibal Lecture to the Warrior, which switches between Zenos and the Warrior in the camera's view, Zenos only talks when he looks like himself.

Heroic Mime / int_4be1bdd0	comment	In the GBA Golden Sun games, Isaac and Felix are Heroic Mimes when you play as them, but have a number of speaking roles when you're playing the other. Both have speaking roles in the ending, where you're not playing as either, Felix also says "why" once when you are in control of him in one particular scene (which might have been a translation goof since he originally just said "?"). One scene in The Lost Age has Jenna and Sheba demanding Piers to tell them his age and they tease him over it when he refuses. Piers begs Felix to stop the girls from teasing him but Felix says nothing, causing Piers to think Felix is in on the girls' shenanigans. Isaac's first speaking appearance in The Lost Age shattered quite a lot of notions fans had about him from the first game — up until that point he'd been presumed to be a total Nice Guy from his actions, so it was a little startling for him to start snapping at people. Subverted: in The Lost Age's ending scene, Felix is Suddenly Speaking and has 2-3 lines. In Golden Sun: Dark Dawn, Matthew is as silent as his father and uncle, with lots of Lampshade Hanging. Also like his uncle, the American version makes one noticable exception late in the game. Though we're not told exactly what he said. Additionally, the game has a unique take on Dialogue Trees where instead of picking a response the player chooses what emotion they want Matthew to express.

You travel through the desert, release cloth creatures, avoid getting caught by the war machines, and never give up on your goal without a single word coming out of you. The game's most innovative feature is its form of multiplayer. At any level except for the beginning, there are high chances you'll meet a companion in the game online, regardless of his/her appearance or gender. Unlike most other multiplayer games, you can't see the other player's names, so the only way to communicate is singing a note — there is no text or voice chat in the game, so you must rely entirely on your in-game abilities to work with your partner. He/she may help you over the course of the game if the player wants to.

In this case, the life of pirate/Assassin Edward Kenway. Unlike the games before this one, the protagonist is a First-Person Ghost who exhibits this trope, and most of the game's focus is centered on the memories being explored (in this case, pirate-turned-Assassin Edward Kenway). Assassin's Creed Rogue repeats the setup (albeit with a different Abstergo employee), while Unity and Syndicate have no modern-day protagonist (arguably, you - the real-world player - are the modern-day protagonist); Origins averts it by introducing a full, vocal character as the modern-day protagonist in the form of Layla Hassan, who continues to serve the role in Odyssey and Valhalla.

Sociopathic Hero Gig usually speaks for the both of them, often to the great disadvantage of the player and usually followed by some rather sharp, pointed and violent disadvantages to any offended parties resulting from Gig's verbal lambastings. The protagonist does, however, have a fairly clearly defined personality; it's just that his/her lines have no voiceovers, probably due to the fact that he/she can be either male or female, which would effectively double the amount of dialogue to be voiced. Revya makes a cameo in Disgaea 3, however, in which her lines are nothing but Visible Silence. This drives Mao utterly nuts to the point of fighting her for it. Almaz comments that Revya's role as Silent Protagonist on her original game is most likely the reason why she can't speak. Mao then thinks why a game company would do that.

Heroic Mime / int_507dfb6a	comment	In EarthBound (1994), whoever is the current party leader (which varies between chapters) won't utter a peep, but will promptly start speaking once the leader role changes. However, NPC's do imply your character saying things, such as a Cultist saying to Ness "What? You're saying I can only stand in one spot? That's not true, see?" Also done in Mother 3 where the character the player controls never talks, but will once the player is controlling someone else. The one exception to this rule is Salsa, who never talks regardless. He's a monkey, sure, but your human main characters seem to have no trouble understanding any other animal. (Boney, Lucas's dog, is a playable character who actually gets a surprising amount of "dialogue", translated for the player's benefit.) In one scene, which takes place at the start of Duster's chapter, is a repeat of a scene from Flint's chapter, with Flint actually saying something this time around, to symbolize the role of player character moving to Duster, who doesn't speak for the rest of his chapter. Lucas, as the main character, actually does have a single line of dialogue during the time you play as him; however, it's easy to miss as he's repeating a line an NPC said. Most players won't check the name of the person saying it and dismiss it as Welcome to Corneria.

Heroic Mime / int_59151283	comment	Even the iconic, richly-characterized Solid Snake of Metal Gear fame used to be one of these, back in the original game. While not entirely mute, he spoke a single line, which served more as proof the computer was responding, whenever he attempted to contact an ally via his radio communicator - "This is Solid Snake. Your reply, please...". Oddly, even this little line is so at odds with his later characterization (he was retooled from a refined, cynical Bond-type into a bitter, highly-intelligent Warrior Poet, although easily for the better) it's difficult to imagine him saying it, even knowing what his voice sounds like. Downplayed with Big Boss/"Venom" Snake from Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain-while he has plenty of lines in the intel tapes, he only speaks a handful of times during the actual campaign.

His normal line is "...." If he sees something curious he goes "...?" Something startling? "...!" A giant peach emerges from the sand wielding a knife? "..?!" Of course, he has answer choices with plenty of "dialogue," but it is unknown if these are merely his thoughts, or if he is communicating them some other way, like writing it down.

Heroic Mime / int_59215319	comment	Persona 2 has a variation of the trope. The main characters of Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment (Tatsuya and Maya, respectively) are party members in the other's game. Each one is mute in the game where he/she is the protagonist, while being able to talk in the other game. Anyone who played both versions can confirm the strangeness of hearing a previously mute character talk, which is quite interesting. This is stranger with Maya, who in Innocent Sin is established as being chatty and scatterbrained, but doesn't utter a peep in Eternal Punishment (other than the occasional player-selected responses). At least Tatsuya always maintains his calm, cold personality, even when he starts talking.

Heroic Mime / int_5921531a	comment	The protagonist of Persona 3 is a borderline example who seems to be The Quiet One in-universe more than a straight-up Heroic Mime, rather befitting his Emo Teen design. He'll call out the names of Personas and has a few lines when using items in battle, and the player must make him respond to other people's dialogue, but he never speaks more than one sentence at a time and his dialogue options are usually laconic and blunt. Around SEES, he's generally rather quiet, sticking to one-on-one conversations with the rest of the cast; he can be seen engaging in small talk every now and then, but his actual dialogue is never heard. The alternate female protagonist's dialogue prompts paint her as significantly less quiet and more cheery, but her conversations with characters aside from player-chosen prompts are similarly glossed over. The use of battle tactics would suggest that the protagonists are commanding the rest of the party in real time, but the player never hears them. Meanwhile, Aigis in The Answer averts this completely and talks freely with visible text boxes, making her the first Megami Tensei protagonist to talk like this.

In a number of group situations and meetups, the protagonist is seen talking among the group quite casually and easily, although, again, this dialogue is simply glossed over. While spoken dialogue is almost non-existent, in-universe he's reasonably chatty.

Heroic Mime / int_5921531c	comment	Downplayed even more with the protagonist of Persona 5, who has a tiny amount of voice-acted dialogue in major story cutscenes and interjects some brief lines when navigating menus, in battles, and exploring the world. The game's narration, while written with very little personality, is also presented in first person as his thoughts, rather than previous games that used second person (though narration is used far less often than Persona 3 and 4, with Morgana usually pointing things out instead). However, he still never voices his Dialogue Tree lines, never speaks with full text boxes like other characters, and has the fewest spoken lines of any named character in the game, despite being the one the audience spends 95% of the story with. In spite of that, he does have a clear personality: he's surprisingly Hot-Blooded, has some shades of being a Blood Knight, and even is a bit hammy. It's implied the reason he's rather quiet is from feigning meekness after the Miscarriage of Justice that got him landed in probation, in an attempt to keep his head down and avoid more trouble. Interestingly, he has far more frequent dialogue options in the new Confidant scenes added in Persona 5 Royal compared to the vanilla game. So far, he's the only protagonist that's remained silent in spinoff games; even in P5's anime adaptation, he's rather quiet.

Like Ludger he/she may do some calling of attacks in battle and their Mystic Artes. The Descender also has various dialogue choices to choose during story dialogue and skits. Ludger, the protagonist of Tales of Xillia 2 is completely silent, save for some grunts, yells, and the usual calling of attacks in battle (though even in that case, he only ever says the attack's name, leaving out the usual Badass Creed from his solo Mystic Artes, and letting his partner say it for the dual Mystic Artes). The only actual lines you can hear from him are for the dialogue choices you pick in skits and cutscenes, and they aren't actually voiced until you enable the option in a New Game Plus. On the few instances where Ludger runs into an Alternate Self, however, they do talk. No other mothership title uses this trope. The Savior Allen from Tales of Link doesn't speak until Chapter 5.

Both are unable to respond verbally, although when you get a choice, you can respond physically (such as, at the end of the tutorial level, choosing either to go back up to redo the course or heading over to the monitors with everyone else to end the level). There's also a pair of flashback missions where you play as then-Lieutenant Price, and he doesn't speak while you have control of him despite talking as an NPC. The only character who talks under the player's control is the thermal-imaging TV operator of the AC-130 from the mission "Death from Above". This gets even weirder in multiplayer, as other players on your team will shout out useful information such as "grenade", "changing mag", or "planting claymore" when they're performing these acts - but when YOU do them, you don't hear yourself say it, but your teammates are able to hear you say it. This can end up getting you killed, as the other team can also hear your chatter, which can give away your position.

He also says, "Well, there is one thing..." when asked by the King of Winlan what he wants as a reward for saving the King and Nina. Breath of Fire II has Ryu speak in a flashback where you control his mother. Ryu actually does talk in IV's ending, when he reunites with Fou-Lu and becomes a full dragon. He's also quite verbose, with a sprite that actually shows him talking...but not actually letting you see what he says. Other characters react as if he just explained something quite complicated, and you get the impression of what he said, but really, Capcom? Averted in the manga adaptation even before the fusion.

Besides Alex Mason (who is a returning player character from the previous game) his son, David "Section" Mason is (until the introduction of Nick Reyes in Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare) the highest-ranked Player Character in the series at Lieutenant Commander and more than backs it up both in and out of the field. There's also Frank Woods, who was mainly an NPC until the final 80's level of BOII. Even the nameless Strike Force soldiers that you control are still fairly talkative.

Heroic Mime / int_72350373	comment	It's taken to the point of absurdity in Shining Force III, which rotates the viewpoint through three main characters. Each one has scenes where he's implied to be saying something, but all that displays is "...", and the other characters get Repeating So the Audience Can Hear lines to show the player what the main just said. And then there are the scenes where two main characters talk to each other - despite the fact that there's a script for both characters, and everyone in the scene reacts as if both of them are talking, the main character's dialogue just displays ellipses, meaning you have to play through the same scene twice just to hear what everyone in the game can understand fine both times.

Heroic Mime / int_74a4c713	comment	The protagonist of Kingdom Hearts χ downplays this. Since the player decides their name, appearance, and which Union they belong to, the game refers to this character with second-person narration quite often. It's shown that the protagonist is speaking, given that other characters frequently repeat what the protagonist apparently said. However, the game rarely shows what the protagonist is actually saying. The few times the protagonist is shown speaking include when they introduce themselves to Ephemer ("I'm [name] of [Union]"), a short "Let's go" when pursuing Dark Chirithy, and a "No More Holding Back" Speech to their Foreteller when they're tricked into believing that Ephemer has been killed. Lampshaded by Ephemer when talking to Ava:

Heroic Mime / int_74f7210c	comment	The Legend of Zelda: Link never says anything, apart from the player's Yes/No choices, but other characters sometimes react as if he does. In Twilight Princess, for instance, he tells Mayor Bo about the problem with the Gorons and what Renado had said just by nodding. This implies that his dialogue is possibly meant to be imagined by the player, which makes sense seeing how his muteness was intended to allow players to project their personalities onto him. In later games, he often has an Exposition Fairy that speaks in his stead during cutscenes, asking questions and so on. Zelda II: The Adventure of Link has three occasions where Link is shown speaking. Link specifically says "I found a mirror under the table," in the town of Saria, "Looks like I can get in the fireplace," when entering a chimney, and "Kasuto. Strange... It is deserted," when reading the signpost at Old Kasuto. And given the way a scene at the fountain in Nabooru is worded, Link is either talking to himself, the fountain is actually talking to Link, or Link is talking to the player: "Want to get some water?" The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening lampshades his silence ("Aren't you going to say anything?") but actually seems to have a fairly talkative Link, as indicated through Repeating So the Audience Can Hear. In one key instance, Link even appears to be Suddenly Speaking; when he reads the relief that reveals the true nature of Koholint Island, his response is "...What? Illusion?" The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages: Link botches a joke, although we never actually see the joke he apparently told. This became amusing when Link appeared in Soulcalibur II. Ivy can taunt him with "You're all talk!" ...when he hasn't even said a word. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: Generally, the game's Link seems to be the most "talkative" one, even disregarding his "Come on!" vocalizations, since much of the game's dialogue, as well as that of direct sequel Phantom Hourglass, works by characters asking questions and the player picking an answer for Link from two choices. The choices are never just "Yes" or "No", but tell rather a lot about Link's true feelings regarding the topic. More than often, both answers would even actually mean pretty much the same, giving Link some actual dialogue, in theory. In fact, there's one point in Phantom Hourglass where you blow into the mic so that Link can shout through a brick wall to check if anyone is on the other side; it shows a dialogue balloon along the lines of "HEY! ANYONE OVER THERE?", so yeah, Toon Link can talk. He's just usually quiet. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: There are a few cutscenes that show Link and another character chatting, but none of the words are texted or vocalized. However, Link's lips are shown moving during conversations and other characters respond as if he's speaking, including one who comments that his voice carries well. It's also lampshaded near the end when Midna notes Link's silence at the restoration of her true form by saying "What? Say something! Am I so beautiful you've no words left?" The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword: Link can be seen "speaking" (with mouth movements) during some cutscenes, but the game displays no text to show exactly what he is saying. Presumably, the developers intended that the player would understand the gist of what he was saying since you would have already seen what he was talking about. Miyamoto and Aonuma have actually stated that the reason the game didn't have voice acting was that they thought having voiced characters would clash with having a Heroic Mime. Occasionally, like in Wind Waker, the player is also given dialogue options other than "Yes" and "No," and the character you're talking to will react accordingly. For example, the very first time Link encounters Groose during the events of the game, the dialogue options are "Give him back!", "Bring it on", and "Nice hair." Hyrule Warriors features Link once again silent, although he's insinuated to be actually quite talkative if he wasn't so introverted. He instead converses to the rest of the cast through a proxy fairy named ... Proxi, who telepathically understands all of Link's thoughts and feelings. While Proxi also speaks for Young Link, Toon Link has his sister Aryll do his talking. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Link remains silent despite the game introducing full voice acting for certain characters. This time, his silence is justified: the burden of being The Chosen One and all the high expectations for him to succeed has led him to put on a stoic front and hide his emotions; Mipha, who knew him as a child, comments that "he hardly speaks anymore". His general silence is noted in Zelda's and Mipha's diaries, and Teba also brings up what he interprets as Link's nervous silence before the battle against Vah Medoh. However, the dialogue options do make a comeback from Skyward Sword, and it seems that, no matter how heavy his burden is, Link will take advantage of snarking his way through everything. Sometimes Link can get forced choices with only one dialogue option to choose from, making the trope downplayed. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity has two heroic mimes instead of one: not only does Link never speak, but neither does the diminutive guardian (unless its R2-speak counts). To this day, the only Link in a game that had his talking restriction lifted was the one from the CD-i games. And once he started, he did not stop. Note that this only applies to playable Links; he tends to talk more when you're not playing as him, as in the case of his Lorulean counterpart Ravio and the Hero's Shade, who is the deceased version of the Hero of Time from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. Gramps, the Streetpass NPC and Secret Boss in A Link Between Worlds, is also subtly implied to be the Link from A Link to the Past. The majority of the manga adaptations, including the official manga written by Akira Himekawa, Avert this and give Link a personality somewhat consistent with his in-game portrayal. The few exceptions instead portray him as something of a Mascot with Attitude, similar to his depiction in the cartoon.

Noble Six in Halo: Reach is same as the Master Chief, silent during missions but using brief sentences in cutscenes. Six also lets out a dejected "Awww" if tagged with a Plasma Grenade. The Rookie from Halo 3: ODST, to the point where he doesn't even have a credited voice actor. This is lampshaded by Dutch when he hands you the silenced SMG: This is justified for most of the game, as he's on his own and has no one to talk to. However, it does feel odd when the Rookie finally finds Dare, but just gives a little nod in response to her questions about the situation. Nonetheless, she seems satisfied with that. He does talk a little in the Halo: Evolutions short story Dirt and the novella Halo: New Blood, though. He's also shown trying to get Dare and Buck's attention in one cutscene, possibly about to speak, but too nervous to interject to their argument. Averted with the other squad members (Buck, Dutch, Mickey, and Romeo), who all talk during their missions. Fireteam Crimson from Halo 4's Spartan Ops campaign. They never speak, and get no characterization, except for being highly efficient at their job. Indeed, given that they are the players' multiplayer avatars manifest into a canonical setting, the variation of possible Fireteams Crimson is too heavy to be able to give them a set character of any sort.

Since a railcar is about to crush him at the time, it is, of course, a Precision F-Strike. The only other time you hear him is when the game's starting gun (appropriately called a Bastard) jams or misfires due to overheating, which is when you'll hear him quietly mutter - "Shit." His silence is lampshaded by other characters, especially Khan. Note that the game is adapted from a book series. The first book has Artyom not silent, while in the second, he never appears (though another, completely different Artyom appears and has full dialogue). In the third book (Metro 2035), the original Artyom returns... and he's now silent like in the games.

You get one sentence in the cutscenes at the end of each gang storyline, and it's startlingly satisfying whenever he opens his mouth (including interrupting a Motive Rant - which includes a threat on his life — to ask if the ranter can speed things up so he can go get something to eat). Turns out he was just being a good henchman, and got very tired of being walked all over because of his good henchmanness — in the second, third, and fourth games, s/he's much more vocal, as befitting being the new leader of the Saints. For the first mission of the fourth game, the Boss canâ€™t speak because of a broken microphone. S/He is speaking and responding to the others, but their radios canâ€™t hear him/her.

In the second game, your version of Agent 5 (now known as Gage Blackwood) never says anything, but you have several interactions with Gage's future self who talks quite a bit. In the third game, Gage talks in live-action cutscenes and, apparently, talks to other people through the Chameleon time-suit's voice modulator that adjusts his voice to match a projected image. Then again, we don't get to hear that voice. The third game is the first to allow interaction with characters from the past thanks to the Chameleon's suit holo-projection technology. Attempts to interact with characters in the second game in the old-fashioned bulky time-suit result in a Nonstandard Game Over (French knights will kill you, while pre-Columbian Mayans will worship you as a god).

Heroic Mime / int_8601c91f	comment	Doom (2016) plays with this in a rather amusing way. Doomguy is completely silent, but his utter contempt for anything to do with hell or the UAC are made glaringly obvious by his actions; the beginning even has him throwing away a terminal when the person speaking through it tries to give him exposition. You get the sense that Doomguy doesn't speak simply because he feels it's a waste of time when dealing with demons or idiots. In his guest appearance in Quake Champions, his lack of talking is even treated as a second passive ability — since he doesn't say anything, he doesn't give away his position to the other fighters by announcing his presence. The sequel Doom Eternal reveals he can talk, but he only does in flashbacks.

Heroic Mime / int_86814e56	comment	Gogo in Final Fantasy VI is a literal heroic mime, who talks to you a couple times. He (or she) can imitate anything the other characters can do right after it is done. Also, in the prologue of FF6, the protagonist is called ????????? and doesn't speak because she's manipulated by Kefka through a device called a Slave Crown, making the player think she would be a heroic mime. Subverted in both cases: Gogo is one of the least important party members in the game (alongside Umaro and Mog), and the player can decide not to have him in the party at all, while Terra, despite being the closest the game has to a protagonist, is only silent in the prologue. Once her Slave Crown is removed, after the prologue chapter, her name is revealed and she becomes a fully speaking character.

In a strange inversion, however, while being the main character in the special episode Comrades (which is multiplayer-based), the Glaive is by far the latest and least plot-relevant party member to join the actual main character Noctis Lucis Caelum in the main game, being only available in a part of Chapter 14. The Glaive even stops appearing in cutscenes in the final dungeon. He/she doesn't even take part in the final boss fight against Ardyn Izunia, who is dueled by Noctis alone, and the ending revolves around Noctis, Ignis, Gladiolus and Prompto rather than him/her. Noctis himself has dialogue options, but he's an aversion.

Heroic Mime / int_8c87469c	comment	The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword: Link can be seen "speaking" (with mouth movements) during some cutscenes, but the game displays no text to show exactly what he is saying. Presumably, the developers intended that the player would understand the gist of what he was saying since you would have already seen what he was talking about. Miyamoto and Aonuma have actually stated that the reason the game didn't have voice acting was that they thought having voiced characters would clash with having a Heroic Mime. Occasionally, like in Wind Waker, the player is also given dialogue options other than "Yes" and "No," and the character you're talking to will react accordingly. For example, the very first time Link encounters Groose during the events of the game, the dialogue options are "Give him back!", "Bring it on", and "Nice hair."

They, however, are just a Supporting Protagonist, as the story's actual main character is Elma.

The only exception is Chapter 4, where Maya and Meena, the two main characters for the chapter, speak freely between themselves. The DS port also had the "party talk" option that greatly expanded the main cast, but this was cut from the English release to keep the localization budget low.

Heroic Mime / int_9f89a5f0	comment	The player character Trainers in the PokÃ©mon series don't talk a lot, although there's a short and very confusing conversation with a mimic in PokÃ©mon Red and Blue in which the player character does say a couple of lines, asking the mimic girl if she likes imitating people. It's also lampshaded in Gold and Silver, which ends with fighting Red, the protagonist of the last game, who only speaks in ellipses. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, the mimic girl returns, "imitates" the main character saying that s/he will help her find her doll, and then adds that she knows that's not what you said, but wants you to help all the same. Was also lampshaded in Ruby and Sapphire when a character asks where the player came from, but the only options are "Yes" or "No", leading to some awkward responses. Also in Red and Blue: If you talk to one of the chefs on S.S. Anne, he'll ask you what you want to eat, and when you don't respond he'll announce that you are "the strong silent type". The player characters do speak occasionally, as gathered from NPC's responses. Based on the Repeating So the Audience Can Hear nature of the responses, though, the PCs are The Unintelligible when they speak at all. Lampshaded again in HeartGold and SoulSilver - you can talk to your PokÃ©mon and one of the responses is "[PokÃ©mon name] seems nervous. Want to say something?" If you say "Yes" it responds, "Whoa! Your PokÃ©mon seemed surprised!" In Black and White, there are two instances of what might be Hilda/Hilbert speaking aloud to themselves, in which they express curiosity as to the source of the sounds coming from the top of Dragonspiral Tower. The messages are expressed in an unusually personal-sounding tone, and appear in unique text boxes at the top of the screen rather than the bottom. Their true nature, though, is ambiguous, as no other characters are around to "hear" them. Also, while you are silent, there's a lot more implied talking than in other games. In Black 2 and White 2, the player character still keeps their traditional silence throughout the main course of the game. As an actor at PokÃ©star Studios however, the character is able to recite full lines of dialogue during the movie. In PokÃ©mon Colosseum, this is usually the case. Wes doesn't speak, except during PokÃ©mon Battles when the player uses the Call command, a game mechanic unique for this game, most often used to make a Shadow PokÃ©mon snap out of the rage it tends to fly into due to the dark corruption that Shadow PokÃ©mon are cursed with. When this happens, Wes simply shouts its name. The protagonist in PokÃ©mon X and Y is the most vocal yet. You still have no real pre-created dialogue but several times throughout the game you're given options with dialogue. It also plays with the usual nondescript Yes/No options when the non-selected player character asks you a question. Lampshaded again in Sun and Moon when the protagonist encounters Final Bosses and Vitriolic Best Buds, Red and Blue. Any question posed towards Red is answered with "..." and eventually results in the much more chatty and outgoing Blue saying "As silent as ever, eh?" It's also revealed to be a character trait since Blue's the only in-game person who can understand him, and barring exceptions like PokÃ©mon Origins, the franchise has acknowledged that Red's Heroic Mime trait to be his actual personality rather than a gameplay mechanic. Red is similarly quiet in PokÃ©mon Masters, while all other trainers you meet, including other past protagonists like Rosa from Black 2/White 2, are fully voiced. Even his female counterpart Leaf is fully voiced and distinct from him, reinforcing that being silent is Red's actual character. On one occasion, another character complains about Red's refusal to talk during a trainer battle, resulting in a rare instance of actual dialogue from Red... in which he says his PokÃ©mon can already understand him perfectly, so talking is completely pointless. Red's silence is so distinct to him that Bulbapedia, which keeps a script of everything that any major character has said, filled his Quotes page with ellipses, as seen here. The Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games are generally aversions; although your characters don't speak (except for the endings, which are usually Tear Jerkers), they are rather talkative in their heads. In PokÃ©mon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, the protagonist has rare dialogue but asks questions at various points). Pikachu in Pokepark Wii remains completely mute throughout the game despite it averting PokÃ©mon Speak similar to Mystery Dungeon. This becomes more apparent in PokÃ©Park 2, where the Unova starters, the other three playable protagonists, do have dialogue. Your Hero/Heroine in PokÃ©mon Conquest is a little more on the talkative side during gameplay, but all of his/her lines are rather generic. During the storyline, they play this trope straight.

Heroic Mime / int_9fa025d	comment	Also done in Mother 3 where the character the player controls never talks, but will once the player is controlling someone else. The one exception to this rule is Salsa, who never talks regardless. He's a monkey, sure, but your human main characters seem to have no trouble understanding any other animal. (Boney, Lucas's dog, is a playable character who actually gets a surprising amount of "dialogue", translated for the player's benefit.) In one scene, which takes place at the start of Duster's chapter, is a repeat of a scene from Flint's chapter, with Flint actually saying something this time around, to symbolize the role of player character moving to Duster, who doesn't speak for the rest of his chapter. Lucas, as the main character, actually does have a single line of dialogue during the time you play as him; however, it's easy to miss as he's repeating a line an NPC said. Most players won't check the name of the person saying it and dismiss it as Welcome to Corneria.

The choices are never just "Yes" or "No", but tell rather a lot about Link's true feelings regarding the topic. More than often, both answers would even actually mean pretty much the same, giving Link some actual dialogue, in theory. In fact, there's one point in Phantom Hourglass where you blow into the mic so that Link can shout through a brick wall to check if anyone is on the other side; it shows a dialogue balloon along the lines of "HEY! ANYONE OVER THERE?", so yeah, Toon Link can talk. He's just usually quiet.

The P4 protagonist speaks freely and rather frequently in the anime, manga, and spinoff games, while the P3 and 5 heroes tend to be more quiet. In Persona Q, the protagonist that is not chosen as the player character speaks freely, while the player-controlled one remains silent. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the P5 hero is, ironically, one of the talkiest members of the cast (though the nature of the game restricts most of his dialogue to general Trash Talk).

His dialogue choices do suggest that he's talkative enough, with answers that form full sentences instead of simple "Yes" or "No". When the he switches bodies with the false antagonist Lynx, Lynx begins talking through Serge, with Serge's mugshot accompanying. A few party members will point out that Serge had, up to that point, never said a word, but still remain entirely fooled. Of course, Serge never says a word as Lynx. The only times Serge is seen even possibly talking are threefold: twice, it fades to black as he supposedly is explaining something, and once just before he passes out, though all that's displayed in Serge's text box is a question mark.

There is a single line he says during the fishing mission in the jungle, saying "I'm almost there" when he nears the end of it. He becomes a lot more talkative starting from the second, after a long and traumatic stint as a live experiment.

Heroic Mime / int_a81325d3	comment	Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy: For the most part, your entire party has no lines, and given that they are clearly not meant to be characters in their own right, you won't really notice or care. However, reading the description for the Rat's Tail yields a pretty funny conversation between them, where they almost consider throwing it away. "No!! Don't do that!!" Gogo in Final Fantasy VI is a literal heroic mime, who talks to you a couple times. He (or she) can imitate anything the other characters can do right after it is done. Also, in the prologue of FF6, the protagonist is called ????????? and doesn't speak because she's manipulated by Kefka through a device called a Slave Crown, making the player think she would be a heroic mime. Subverted in both cases: Gogo is one of the least important party members in the game (alongside Umaro and Mog), and the player can decide not to have him in the party at all, while Terra, despite being the closest the game has to a protagonist, is only silent in the prologue. Once her Slave Crown is removed, after the prologue chapter, her name is revealed and she becomes a fully speaking character. With the obvious exception of the MMO games, however, the series has averted this trope. Even Firion from 2 and Luneth/the Onion Knights from 3 were speaking characters from their first appearance.

The adults still treat him like he can, but won't speak, however. At some point he does need to pray to Jesus Christ, but even if his lips move, not a sound comes out.

Heroic Mime / int_bbcd4e9b	comment	Serph, the main character of Digital Devil Saga, does not make so much as a noise in the first game. He gets a sort of confused grunt near the beginning of the second, which may not be enough to prepare the player for the flashback sequence in which he is downright chatty. The talkative Serph in the flashback is not actually the player character, but the man (now dead) your Heroic Mime was based on. Your Serph is always silent. And it is actually a plot point, hammering the point the two are nothing alike. That said, Serph does have a few text options that are more than Yes or No. One of them even prompts hilarity from Heat. Subverted however, as Serph is just a silent Decoy Protagonist. He falls in the EGG and dies, then Gale and Sera take the spotlight and they talk with visible text boxes even as protagonists. And before the final dungeon, Serph fuses with Sera to become Seraph, who is a fully voiced character. Unlike many Megaten protagonists, however, Serph completely averts this trope in the novel adaptation Quantum Devil Saga: Avatar Tuner, where he has full dialogues and even his thoughts shown to the reader from the start. Most lines spoken by Gale in the game are spoken by Serph in the book, as the author Yu Godai herself said Gale was created just to speak the dialogue that was meant for Serph, and didn't want to include him in the book as Serph is not silent there. Unlike most protagonists from Persona adaptations, Serph is not Demoted to Extra, and not even The Quiet One in the book: Heat has less overall lines than him. This has the side effect of turning Gale into The Artifact in the novels, only there because he existed in the game as shown by the fact that Gale's real self does not even exist at all in the book continuity.

He manages to carry on numerous conversations without us directly hearing what he says. Instead, the game uses the rather clunky solution of having a narrative box pop up in place of Mike's dialog, explaining what Mike is saying ("You tell her that you are looking for your uncle.") The character will then react in normal dialog, often repeating what was just explained. ("Oh! So you're looking for your uncle!") One wonders why the game didn't just give us Mike's dialog if it was going to explain it all anyway, but then again it is a Nintendo title, and they've not huge fans of chatty protagonists. In any case, Mike begins talking in Startropics 2, directly to the player.

Heroic Mime / int_c1baeb4f	comment	Unlike many Megaten protagonists, however, Serph completely averts this trope in the novel adaptation Quantum Devil Saga: Avatar Tuner, where he has full dialogues and even his thoughts shown to the reader from the start. Most lines spoken by Gale in the game are spoken by Serph in the book, as the author Yu Godai herself said Gale was created just to speak the dialogue that was meant for Serph, and didn't want to include him in the book as Serph is not silent there. Unlike most protagonists from Persona adaptations, Serph is not Demoted to Extra, and not even The Quiet One in the book: Heat has less overall lines than him. This has the side effect of turning Gale into The Artifact in the novels, only there because he existed in the game as shown by the fact that Gale's real self does not even exist at all in the book continuity.

Heroic Mime / int_c4a1d59e	comment	Extremely common in Call of Duty. The first Call of Duty lampshades this when the British player character and Captain Price infiltrate the Tirpitz; Price, while discussing the plan to sabotage the ship, asks that "unless your German's improved, let me handle the talking". Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare has two player-controlled characters, USMC Sergeant Paul Jackson and SAS Sergeant "Soap" MacTavish. Both are unable to respond verbally, although when you get a choice, you can respond physically (such as, at the end of the tutorial level, choosing either to go back up to redo the course or heading over to the monitors with everyone else to end the level). There's also a pair of flashback missions where you play as then-Lieutenant Price, and he doesn't speak while you have control of him despite talking as an NPC. The only character who talks under the player's control is the thermal-imaging TV operator of the AC-130 from the mission "Death from Above". This gets even weirder in multiplayer, as other players on your team will shout out useful information such as "grenade", "changing mag", or "planting claymore" when they're performing these acts - but when YOU do them, you don't hear yourself say it, but your teammates are able to hear you say it. This can end up getting you killed, as the other team can also hear your chatter, which can give away your position. Lampshaded at least twice in Call of Duty: World at War. The first line you hear in the American campaign is one of Miller's Japanese captors taunting him by asking, "you think because you say nothing, you're strong?" Later, while crawling through a burnt-out building in Berlin during Dimitri's campaign, a bunch of soldiers start complaining about the smoke, at which point Sgt. Reznov tells them to shut up, mentions how he and Dimitri "crawled through smoke and rubble in Stalingrad", then asks them "do you hear him complaining?" Soap becomes an NPC character in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and, as such, is Suddenly Voiced. However, similar to Price in the previous game, when he eventually becomes playable near the end of the game, he goes back to being silent, aside from the intro cutscenes. Other player characters Roach and Ramirez are completely silent. Allen however talks during the briefing cutscenes for "Cliffhanger" and "No Russian", and has a single line in the mission "No Russian" as well. Call of Duty: Black Ops has every protagonist speak during gameplay, allowing them to actually communicate what they see and do to the rest of their group. It also had Dimitri Petrenko return as an NPC with both his face shown and his voice revealed, as well as a semblance of a personality, in the flashback mission "Project Nova." Several missions in Modern Warfare 3 have you playing as a character named Yuri. While the player controls Yuri, he is a Heroic Mime, but in cutscenes and one mid-mission flashback, he talks. However, in the last mission of the game, you switch to Captain Price. You then play alongside Yuri, who is now just a talkative on-mission as Price is. Even more interesting is that, when you're playing as Price, you can clearly hear Price speaking to Yuri. Frost and Harkov are both silent. The thermal-imaging TV operator of the AC-130 however, still talks. Call of Duty: Black Ops II also averts this entirely. Besides Alex Mason (who is a returning player character from the previous game) his son, David "Section" Mason is (until the introduction of Nick Reyes in Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare) the highest-ranked Player Character in the series at Lieutenant Commander and more than backs it up both in and out of the field. There's also Frank Woods, who was mainly an NPC until the final 80's level of BOII. Even the nameless Strike Force soldiers that you control are still fairly talkative. Call of Duty: Ghosts plays this painfully straight. Primary Player Character Logan Walker remains dead-silent throughout the entire game. The missions where you switch to another character are no different — even Elias Walker, who is otherwise very talkative, is completely silent during the flashback mission where you play as him. Unlike in the original Modern Warfare, this trope is completely averted in the rebooted series, where all of playable characters are quite talkative even when you're playing as them.

Heroic Mime / int_c7539344	comment	The game Singularity has an interesting example: the main character is mute for the majority of the game, with one major exception: near the beginning of the game, you are saving an unconscious man in a burning building when you hear an NPC yell out, specifically imploring you not to save the man. Then the NPC gets killed by falling rubble. You later find out that this was yourself, from the future, having gone back in time to try and prevent the mess you're about to create. And to prevent the player from figuring this out early, both that character and your NPC partner Devlin are voiced by Nolan North, meaning that when the player hears the shout, he'll likely think it's Devlin shouting.

Heroic Mime / int_cf5c0f55	comment	The main heroes in the Suikoden series tend to be mute. Kinda weird given they command large armies in their games. It's clear that they actually do talk because whenever your character is given a decision to make (even answering a simple yes-or-no question), you're given specific dialogue options what the hero will say in response. Sometimes you're even given only one dialogue "option" to choose. Though even after voice acting was implemented in the series, you won't hear them speak the lines you pick. Since outside of these situations they pretty much have other characters speak in their place, apparently the heroes of the "main" games are each The Quiet One. Except for Suikoden III, which has three main heroes, all of whom have plenty to say in-game. In the adaptations, most Suikoden main characters are still silent, but Tir McDohl in the Suikoden 1 manga isn't. The Prince in Suikoden V has a lot of personality for a Heroic Mime, though. Like the other characters, he has a very detailed character model, so while he never says a word, his body language and facial expressions speak volumes. The player character in Suikoden Tierkreis talks A LOT, and has a very hyper, gung-ho, Hot-Blooded and almost-keetish personality. "We won't know until we try!!" Kyril also talks. In Kyril's game, if certain conditions are fulfilled, Suikoden IV's protagonist Lazlo appears, and suddenly talks. Tir McDohl (the hero from Suikoden) also talks in Suikoden II.

Heroic Mime / int_d1ad2f1d	comment	While Doki Doki Literature Club! starts out as an ordinary Romance Game where the Player Character speaks as you'd expect him to, this, like many other tropes, comes into play in a complicated and spoilery way after the Genre Shift in the middle. Firstly, the Player Character becomes more and more mute during the second act. He stops reacting to the insanity going on around him, and eventually just stops speaking and having internal monologue at all. Secondly, a character with Medium Awareness starts interacting with the player instead, except that the interaction is rather one-sided and the player can't really say anything, although there are a few times they click to select an option that doesn't make any difference. Of course, when you start thinking about the player as separate from the Player Character, it highlights the player was like a Heroic Mime all along — they could make choices for their character, but he was the one who chose what to say.

A rare justified example: all the Brush Gods that appear to talk in animal form are in fact communicating through telepathy, and Ammy's own dialogue is never shown because it cannot be heard from the outside. Often, and amusingly, Issun will interpret Ammy's intentions even when she shows no outward indication of a response, particularly when accepting a quest when she is usually just panting and looking around nonchalantly. Though this is because Amaterasu is talking telepathically to Issun, and the player, being an "outsider" cannot read her mind.

Heroic Mime / int_d59e2ca4	comment	Quake: The Ranger in Quake is pretty much a straight 3D conversion of the classic Doomguy - he has a nickname given to him after the game came out, he has a set appearance, but that's it. He never says anything beyond grunts from jumping, getting hit or dying. Quake II looks to avert this in the opening cinematic, where the player character speaks quite clearly and often during his descent onto Stroggos. He also has an actual name, rather than just a nickname, as turning around at the start of gameplay shows the name "Bitterman" emblazoned on his drop pod. However, after losing contact with HQ during the opening, he never says a word in actual gameplay. He doesn't even really get a physical appearance like the Ranger until his guest appearance in Quake III: Arena. In Quake IV, outside of a single cutscene before he's taken by the Strogg, the protagonist, Matthew Kane, never speaks, not even when reacting to other characters. It's possible afterwards that he may not even be able to talk normally, though it doesn't explain why he talked so little before that even as people talked to or about him every time you find them, and even asked him questions. Probably the only sign of any personality, at all, in the game happened in the cutscene where he saw a new kind of enemy, the female cyborg zombie and the first on-screen female in the game — she didn't do anything at first, so he got closer, then lowered his weapon and reached for her face with his free hand. That's it. That's all. Generic Space Marine Stoicism all the way.

Heroic Mime / int_dbce0953	comment	Pikmin went back and forth with this. In the first game, Captain Olimar provides exposition and comments on the Pikmin and their properties. In Pikmin 2, this role was taken over by the Hocotate Ship's AI, leaving Olimar (and his new sidekick Louie) silent. Rescuing Louie at the end of the game, though, lets the player read Louie's logs on every creature in the game (and how to properly cook and eat them.) By Pikmin 3, he's back to speaking again, and the new player characters speak as well. In Pikmin 4, your main character has no dialogue (outside some player-chosen lines), but Olimar speaks even in the side mode where you play as him, reliving his first crash landing in this game.

Heroic Mime / int_dc25de3f	comment	Chell from Portal, another Valve game. Mind you, she doesn't have anyone to talk to but a mad AI trying to kill her and a cube. It's lampshaded by GLaDOS, naturally. Chell's lack of response to her monologues leads her to say "Are you even listening to me?" The game's co-writer Erik Wolpaw suggested she's just in a sulk: Portal 2 parodies it in an early scene where Wheatley asks Chell to speak, and a prompt appears telling you to press the button that you usually use to jump, to speak to him. Obviously, once you press the button, Chell just jumps instead. This is Played for Laughs starting when Wheatley suggests that Chell has suffered brain damage from her long sleep, and then continues to hint at it throughout the rest of the game. After completing a small puzzle: "It just goes to show, that people with brain damage are the real heroes." Also, both he and GLaDOS say that she's a mute. At one point, GLaDOS calls Chell a "dangerous, mute lunatic" to her face. At another point, early in the game, GLaDOS delivers a thinly disguised insult, and then a few minutes later decides to spell it out for her, because "You didn't react, so I was afraid it sailed right over your head". A cut scene has GLaDOS stop the elevator halfway down and ask Chell if there's anything she feels like apologising for. The player (presumably) can't respond. GLaDOS gives up after a few tries and say she'll "ask again in a few decades." Lab Rat, a comic tying together Portal and Portal 2, goes slightly out of its way to preserve this: the page of her personnel file where she's asked a question reports "Subject refused to answer." Only in the first game, although this example might be a developer oversight, if Chell is ever hit by physics objects, she'll utter a grunting sound, which is a few recycled soundbites from female Non-Player Characters from Half-Life 2. At one point during the development of Portal 2 (when the developers were still working out how they were going to end the game), the game ended with Chell resolving the stalemate during the final battle, not by pressing the stalemate button, but by overriding the stalemate with a verbal affirmation from Chell. The idea was great on paper: the only time Chell has ever spoken! But the ending greatly confused playtesters, because it subverted their expectations of the controls (pressing jump instead actually had Chell say "Yes", instead of jumping like in the apple scene above) and it introduced a voice they had never heard before and had no idea it was Chell's. That, combined with the final effect being extremely underwhelming, caused the developers to scrap the idea entirely.

They do have dialogue options, they have voiced lines during battle, and a few times their inner monologue is shown but not voiced. When you combine all that with what other characters say about the protagonist during the storyline, it's clear that they do have a canon personality. They're a seemingly emotionless character who cares about others more than they let on. Like Robin, Byleth speaks in Heroes and Smash.

Heroic Mime / int_e22c949c	comment	Dragon Quest: The heroes of every game, aside from the Dragon Quest Heroes games, are heroic mimes, which is quite ironic since they often get to become kings and rule fairly large countries in Dragon Quest, Dragon Quest II, Dragon Quest III, Dragon Quest V and Dragon Quest VI (the "State of the Kingdom" speeches must be quite short) and also often become role models for characters who happen to speak A LOT. Dragon Quest III: Played straight in the original Famicon version, averted in the English Nintendo Entertainment System, where Erdrick yells for a kidnapped couple to run away from Robbin' 'Ood. Also, your party members, although there's one clear aversion: after returning from Gaia's Navel, the party member in the second position will have a comment/question about your experience, dependent on their class/gender. If you sent a party member to the dungeon and put the Hero in the second position, he/she will have Visible Silence instead. The main character of Dragon Quest VIII is not only a mute, he falls in love with a princess who spends most of the game whinnying due to being turned into a horse. Though, you do see him chatter with other characters during cutscenes. He actually pantomimes a lot, making one think he is actually mute rather than just a silent hero. Which is sort of odd, because there is a (voiceless) scream ability in combat. In Dragon Quest IV, each chapter has a different main character - the main character for that chapter doesn't speak, but if you meet main characters from other chapters (e.g. Torneko can meet Ragnar in the Endor casino) then they talk like normal. The only exception is Chapter 4, where Maya and Meena, the two main characters for the chapter, speak freely between themselves. The DS port also had the "party talk" option that greatly expanded the main cast, but this was cut from the English release to keep the localization budget low. The game even lampshades this when the hero is asked by a master merchant what the secret to success is. Played with somewhat in the ending of Dragon Quest Swords. After the heroic mime defeats the villain the City of Avalonia is in celebration. Anlace and Fleurette encourage the hero to say something inspirational to the assembled masses. The hero's father Claymore then puts in his own opinion, "Take no notice of them, lad. Now's not the time for words." The Hero's real world counterpart in Dragon Quest VI is able to speak normally when you meet him. Interestly, in Dragon Quest V there's a point where due to Time Travel, you meet your older self as a child, and your younger self as an adult. In both cases, the "other" you speaks freely. In Dragon Quest XI the main character never speaks and there's even an option to turn off his Voice Grunting — though not much is made about it during the game. It is lampshaded however in the short character bios that appear in the loading screens. Cole, a young boy who idolizes the main character, is said to have attempted the "strong and silent type" act. Similar to Dragon Quest V, you also meet the hero's younger self thanks to time travel, and he talks to you and his father in the brief moment you see him.

Heroic Mime / int_e3679ecc	comment	Most of the main characters of the Shining Series are heroic mimes. It's taken to the point of absurdity in Shining Force III, which rotates the viewpoint through three main characters. Each one has scenes where he's implied to be saying something, but all that displays is "...", and the other characters get Repeating So the Audience Can Hear lines to show the player what the main just said. And then there are the scenes where two main characters talk to each other - despite the fact that there's a script for both characters, and everyone in the scene reacts as if both of them are talking, the main character's dialogue just displays ellipses, meaning you have to play through the same scene twice just to hear what everyone in the game can understand fine both times. Max actually does speak in Shining Force'' (at least, in the GBA Remake)? He only becomes mute because of plot circumstances. Bowie, the Hero in Shining Force 2, is not entirely mute, either. His lines are few and far between (sometimes hours of gameplay apart) and mostly gratuitous, though. The playable character Arthur from Shining the Holy Ark is for the most part completely silent. The player does get the choice of some Yes/No answers but regardless of what answer you give the same thing will happen, just with a slightly different conversation. Shining Wisdom has yet another mute hero, Mars. What's particularly annoying is the princess is turned into a swan and replaced by a fake and the fake pretends you recused her. You can't say anything so the fake steals a special object that almost certainly dooms the kingdom. Shining Tears features a rare aversion with Xion. Yuma Ilvern from Shining Resonance is a rare aversion.

Heroic Mime / int_e5d5d23c	comment	Doom: DoomÂ³. This is sometimes awkward when the NPCs are talking to the marine in ways that invite a response. It's especially noticeable in the final cutscene, where a group of marines ask the protagonist if he's okay, and he just stares at them, looking dazed. On top of that, in neither Doom 3 nor its expansion Resurrection of Evil was the character given a name, as they're both referred to as simply "Marine", which gets used practically as their names. The original two Doom games, of course, featured no interaction with anybody at all outside of one mid-level intermission in Doom II, so this trope doesn't even get a chance to apply. Conversely, the Doom Comic-Book Adaptation made him very talkative... and this version of him is quite the loony. Doom (2016) plays with this in a rather amusing way. Doomguy is completely silent, but his utter contempt for anything to do with hell or the UAC are made glaringly obvious by his actions; the beginning even has him throwing away a terminal when the person speaking through it tries to give him exposition. You get the sense that Doomguy doesn't speak simply because he feels it's a waste of time when dealing with demons or idiots. In his guest appearance in Quake Champions, his lack of talking is even treated as a second passive ability — since he doesn't say anything, he doesn't give away his position to the other fighters by announcing his presence. The sequel Doom Eternal reveals he can talk, but he only does in flashbacks. The Brutal Doom mod and especially its offshoot Project Brutality throw Doomguy's "man of few words" shtick out the window in favor of portraying him as he is in the comic, in all his energetic, bombastic, sadistic glory.

He also has an actual name, rather than just a nickname, as turning around at the start of gameplay shows the name "Bitterman" emblazoned on his drop pod. However, after losing contact with HQ during the opening, he never says a word in actual gameplay.

It's possible afterwards that he may not even be able to talk normally, though it doesn't explain why he talked so little before that even as people talked to or about him every time you find them, and even asked him questions. Probably the only sign of any personality, at all, in the game happened in the cutscene where he saw a new kind of enemy, the female cyborg zombie and the first on-screen female in the game — she didn't do anything at first, so he got closer, then lowered his weapon and reached for her face with his free hand. That's it. That's all. Generic Space Marine Stoicism all the way.

Both the Zerg Commanders were Cerebrates, the one in the main game was killed by Zeratul, the one during Brood War would have been likely killed off by Kerrigan after the events of the Brood War. The Terran Commander of the main game was the Magistrate of Mar Sara, in a novel s/he was stated to have left Raynor's Raiders after escaping from Mengsk. The Terran Commander in Brood War was a UED Captain who either died to Kerrigan's Swarm or managed to be one of the few survivors. The Protoss Commander of Brood War has yet to be elaborated upon (as Artanis only returned to an executor position during the last mission of the game), though there's a theory in the fandom that it could have been Selendis (who is introduced in StarCraft II as Artanis's protege).

Her Mission Control hard-codes several basic words into the avatar, and Lea makes good use of them during her journey. However, she still can't communicate properly on more complex themes, which often becomes a problem.

Heroic Mime / int_f91f25d8	comment	Both of the Gungrave games give protagonist Beyond the Grave no lines whatsoever — he doesn't even let out so much as a grunt when taking damage. Most of the time the only sounds you ever hear from him are either gunfire from his twin pistols or the strange squeaky noise of his coffin weapon when he moves. He's fully capable of speaking, he just chooses not to, making gestures (such as raising a finger or nodding his head) that only his ward Mika seems to understand. The only time he ever speaks comes at the end of Overdose, in which he says exactly one line — to Mika, the one person who has no need for him to speak.Interestingly, this trait was (mostly) carried over in the anime series - Grave and by association, Brandon Heat rarely speaks, but he does get at least a little use out of his vocal cords, in the very few lines he gets. This was also carried over into his appearance in the Massive Multiplayer Crossover strategy-RPG Chaos Wars; he has no lines of dialog beyond "......", and is the only character with no vocals when acting in combat. It is specifically commented on and lampshaded by other characters at several points. Much Hilarity Ensues when the protagonist Hyouma (who is not this trope) tries to get a meaningful response (whether it be asking Grave why he doesn't eat to flat out asking him if he's mute or not) out of Grave, only to be shot down by Grave giving Hyouma his "negative" expression and an ellipsis. It's not that Grave is ignoring Hyouma, Grave is just being himself, and Mika usually has to explain to Hyouma why Grave acts the way he does.

Heroic Mime / int_f97683ef	comment	The main character of Hollow Knight doesn't speak throughout the game. This is highly relevant to the plot: like all the vessels, they can't speak. This gives away their true nature to several characters who are in the know, though the player doesn't discover their true nature until quite late in the game.

Heroic Mime / int_fbfe40c2	comment	A Tale of Two Rulers gives a Fridge Horror explanation for Link's muteness: when his memories of his past incarnations awaken, the experience is so traumatizing that the current incarnation never speaks again. This has horrifying implications for the current incarnation, the rather cheerful and chatty Rinku, Zelda's daughter.

Heroic Mime / int_fe24dd6f	comment	Speaking of WWII FPSes, this also applies to the Medal of Honor games. In fact, the series' first PS2/Xbox/GC installment, Frontline, sort of pokes fun at this: During the mission Nijmegen Bridge, a fellow soldier asks you to disarm some charges placed along the bridge, and quips "Good. I'll take your silence for a 'yes'." Joseph Griffin in Rising Sun gets a physical appearance, yet he's still a heroic mime in the cutscenes.

Heroic Mime / int_fe85bfc8	comment	In the Super Smash Bros. series, some characters can speak full sentences, while others simply blurt words, are restricted to grunting and growling, or make absolutely no sound at all. Taken to a ridiculous extreme in Brawl's Subspace Emissary, where nearly everyone is a Heroic Mime plotwise. Even the villains. Even the characters who do speak in their own games. At times it seems like the characters are communicating telepathically. You had to read the official website just to find out what was going on. The only exceptions are Snake (who gets one line - "Kept you waiting, huh?") and a few instances of Calling Your Attacks. In the interest of fairness, the reason for the necessity of All There in the Manual is due to two scenes that were removed from the final version. Most of the plot and character interactions can be inferred from their actions... just not the most important ones.

Heroic Mime / int_fe92b338	comment	Ludger, the protagonist of Tales of Xillia 2 is completely silent, save for some grunts, yells, and the usual calling of attacks in battle (though even in that case, he only ever says the attack's name, leaving out the usual Badass Creed from his solo Mystic Artes, and letting his partner say it for the dual Mystic Artes). The only actual lines you can hear from him are for the dialogue choices you pick in skits and cutscenes, and they aren't actually voiced until you enable the option in a New Game Plus. On the few instances where Ludger runs into an Alternate Self, however, they do talk. No other mothership title uses this trope.
