What game has the most likeable characters?

I think The Wind Waker by far. I was actually interested in what was going to happen to them, and I wanted to learn more about them. I liked pretty much every character in the game...even the Rito postman was likeable! Link was awesome, and so were all of the main characters. The side characters were good too! I really liked that in TWW, that I honestly liked all of the characters pretty much.

TP would be second, if not merely because of Midna, possibly the best non Ganondorf/Zelda/Link character in the series. But there are other good characters too.

What do you think?

I think that WW NPCs were good, and it was nice they had their own stories. A good example is the poor father and the rich father, as well as their daughters who get kidnapped. However, I voted MM because not only of the likable playable characters, all the forms of link, but also because of the NPC interaction of the game. How every single one of them had some sort of schedule for the three days. Some were a bit more complex (Anju and her family) then others I admit, but still. The original characters in that game were awesome as well. Kafei, the deku king and princess, tingle, ect. They made it even better.

Easily TP, although MM does make a good stab at it. The reason TP takes the cake is because it's characters were all involved in the main plot, where as MM's characters were just sidequests. Granted, giving those characters interesting stories is a great step forward, but you could really connect with Ilia and Link's love, the admiration Collin has for Link, as well as the heroic group of people that met at Telma's (why do you fail me now memory).

MM. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't understand how deep it goes.

Majora's Mask, obviously. Characters actually act like real people. Their schedules don't revolve around praising Link (like every character in Twilight Princess), they actually have their own stories-- mostly interesting, too.

In second, I'd have to say it's a tie between Link's Awakening and The Wind Waker. I guess if I had to choose, I'd go with LA's characters because they are all so corky. Koholint really felt like a whacky world because even the monsters and bosses were given silly dialouge. But Wind Waker's characters were great too.

At the moment, it's a tie between OOT, TWW, and TP for me. I pretty much liked all of the characters and what happened to them.

Majora's Mask. Every character had their own story and their own life. The characters were interesting, and easy to get attached to. They were people living everyday lives around the town, who needed help, and who made you really want to help them.

MM. Hands down. Whoever says TP is better, play MM. TP's characters felt uninspired, stereotipical, and VERY anoying. MM's characters, as said before, do NOT revolve around link(OMG!!!ONOZE!!!), making it feel MUCH more realistic. And there were few stereotipical characters.

Distant second would be Link's Awakening. The characters themselves are not very memoriable, but their dialouge is.

I have to say MM's. I kept laughing at the guy looking at his workmate building that big tower thing. And the way the guard moves when youre a kid, trying to keep you away from the outside of Clock Town. Good times...

I would say Wind Waker and Twilight Princess.
To tell the truth, i always develop a sort of bond with zelda characters.
