Favorite Video Game Villain!

[Zerobanshee]

Easily, my favorite boss is split inbetween two games.

Baal, from Diablo II. The satisfaction of choosing a Necromancer, one of the most regarded "difficult" classes to be, and defeating Baal was worth every minute.

Ultimacia from FFVIII. The random party setup choosing three of my best characters made it even more satisfying when I made it through all four of her forms, and finally defeated her. The ending video made it all worthwhile.

Dear God do I love villains! I have a bunch that I like as well, but I'm going to just name the ones off the top of my head.

(Coming as a shock to probably no one) I am a huge Sephiroth Fan. I love his story, I love his devil-may-care attitude, and I love his character design. I happen to enjoy how he manipulates Cloud in the events of FF VII, (and before you go and say NUH-UH!!! THAT WAS JENOVA!!! I happen to think that Sephiroth is indeed the one controlling Jenova and Jenova is Sephiroth's "puppet".) and gets him to pretty much second guess his existence. That's pretty evil to me.

I am also a big Kuja fan. Like everyone else has said, it's his eloquence and "airs" that make him so delightful as a villain. I like how poetic he is, and I like how vicious he can be.

Heh... Yami from Okami. This is one of my favorite villains because it is so unexpected! Well, at least his weak spot was... Here's an artist's rendition of basically what his weakness was:

SEE HOW DELIGHTFULLY EVIL IT IS????

Yami has like, five other forms, and those forms are basically big machine type things that surround this weak spot of his, and you have to use pretty much every technique in your arsenal to take him out.

I also really liked Orochi. He is also in the game Okami. Basically, he is an eight-headed dragon, and the way you have to defeat him is to get him drunk and then use your celestial paintbrush techniques to take him out.

There's a whole story in-game about why Orochi is so evil, but I really don't want to get too detailed, because I know I'll just keep on and on and on about it, but here's a run-down:

SPOILER!!:

Basically the tiny village of Kamiki has to sacrifice one of thier female residents to Orochi every year or else some pretty horrible stuff will go down. He picks his victim by shooting a white-plumed arrow and whichever maiden's house his hit by the arrow, they are the chosen sacrifice. These people live in constant fear of him, and do as he commands. I wish all villains had that kind of control over people.

I guess I really like the villains in Okami because the battles with them are so freaking awesome.

I like Bowser as well. Yeah, so he's sort of been played down as a more water-down version of a villain, but when I was first starting out playing video games, Bowser was the first villain I had to face. His clown helicopter thing in Super Mario World is awesome.

Well, that's it for me (I think...). If I think of any more, I'll put them in, but right now my brain is not functioning.
