You've knocked through two people who are in your last five. Attrition is your ally. White. Flower.

alright, its Rosa isn't it, man I can't believe I missed that. Flower, of course.

Edit: if its not rosa, then it has to be edge.

Edit Again: Reading the riddle again, especially the last few lines, rosa is the white mage so therefore she can heal, so I'm confirming with Rosa

You are correct sir. Could also be that I was pretty elliptical. Clues as poetry may be a little much. Still, I'll probably write haikus or a sonnet or some other such doggerel if I win again.

Mine is going to be nowhere near as tough, but here we go:

Its a pretty tough life, when I'm considered the comic relief of a game. I really thought I would be a little more respected. My party members think I'm strange despite I fight strongly for the freedom of my country. I'm a ninja I should be respected. I think the fact I pick up obscure objects and use them as a weapon doesn't win me much respect with my party members.

Its probably a little easy, so Who am I?

Rodney Dangerfield?

Reminds me a bit of Frank from Shadow Hearts 3, but I don't remember him fighting for the freedom of his country.

Your right RR, it is Frank from Shadow Hearts: From The New World. He loves America, he was even willing to hide in an American flag. It says under his character profile he fights to preserve America's Freedom.

Man, my life sucks. I've only got two friends. One is my robot who I can't even afford a battery for, and the other is my long-dead friend that just exists inside my PDA. The first time you meet me I'm getting curb-stomped by a bunch of thugs because I didn't pay up on my debts. Eventually I go on to find a couple of other friends to go adventuring around the universe with, even at one point finding an entire planet which wants to befriend me. Sadly, the RPG mechanics in my game almost appear as an afterthought, and I'd probably have been better off just having been an adventure game.

Hints!

My development was delayed even longer than Daikatana! Sadly, talk of me won't always make someone want to reinstall my game.

My game is also known for having witty dialogue and text that's worth reading (ie not a JRPG).

could it be Sylvester Bucelli from Anachronox?

Yep, it's Detective Sly Boots.

this won't be too difficult I guess.

I often perform kamen rider poses and have a strict sense of justice, since the start I forced my underclassmen to join my quest for justice, some of my special attacks involve drills.

I'm pretty sure you're talking about Flay from Mana Khemia. His hero of justice sidequests were fantastic.

I wonder if he noticed your response.

Yeah, i wanted to get in on this action too.

Eh, go ahead and take my turn. I'm fairly certain I was right, but I don't have a good hint in mind at the moment.

Well I'll try one.

I seem destined to be a slave. Hell, I have a princess and a supposed king of evil who currently share ownership over me. The king is admittedly not the brightest soul and sometimes asks me questions to which the correct answer seems to be completely random. At least my shadow isn't pink.

That almost sounds like Prinny.

Nope. Not Prinny. That was one of the characters I was considering though.

OMG. What's his name... Ari, the boy hero from Okage the SHADOW KING. Beaten that cute rpg not too long ago! HIS SISTER got that pink shadow lmao.

Alright, hmm... here we go... this one is an oldie. Not going for subtleties here.

Grandpa taught me a move to make me go very fast before I left for the kingdom. My father died for his kingdom leaving behind a legacy that is expected of me. On my very first job for the King, everyone fell asleep!

Meia>Yup, you got it.

And damnit, that sounds familiar but I'm not remembering! ARGH!

Hrm... 4 days and no show. I suppose E3 is distracting everyone right now. Which is fine. I'll just give another random hint.

You'd think I'm Adol the Red but I'm not. Although my game is similar in the gameplay to that series. In fact, my game is considered as a black sheep to its series.

Actually, that hint has made me more confused than ever. I figured it was one of the Dragon Quest games from the first clue, since I remembered a village entirely put to sleep and that spell that allowed instant teleportation between towns (moving very fast).

Black sheep? I simply must guess Suikoden IV for that.
Honestly though, I have no clue since I don't have enough oldies under my belt. Hope I don't kick myself for having actually played it but not long enough.

It has to be a black sheep because it's an action-RPG instead of a (likely) turn-based RPG, like the rest of the games in its series. Probably wasn't reviewed very well, either (lending to its... black sheepness).

It feels like it's on the tip of my tongue, but I'm at a loss. Only commenting to show what I've deduced from the hints.

You're right so far GB, but I also included Adol the Red hint for a very obvious characteristic.
