I don't think I have ever been emotionally invested in character in a video game

It depends how you look at the game. If you look at it as just a game and a series of challenges linked by a story you probably wouldn't feel invested.

If you looked at it as a story you play through and take part in, you'd maybe feel more invested in a character.

You also need good writing and good performances by the voice actors for emotional investment to even be a possability.
