I'm torn between two.

Can this include organizations? Cause I like organizations rather than individual people.

Sure, which one are you thinking of?

Hyperion is a pretty awesome evil corporation. Everything you don't want to see in a powerful company.

If that's who I think it is then he was one of the best characters to have such a sad and shitty end.

In the past couple years no other villain has truly resounded with me so well.

Have you played The Last of Us at all? He's an Anti-Hero as a protagonist and a Villain as a character.

Verbatim · September 16, 2014, 02:33:17 AM

Uh. Heath Ledger's Joker.

I tend to prefer stories where morality isn't so black and white, though.

Never played it, but I watched a full LP of it, which is pretty much the same thing. I get that he's a jerk and initially disdainful towards Ellie, but he risks his life to save her at the end of the game, and legitimately cares enough to not let her die for science.

But in the process he dooms the old world that a "Hero" would work to protect/bring back to fruition. He is selfish and let's his own desires control his actions ultimately condemning a lot of lives.

Hence why he is a villain.

I guess so, but he doesn't have any downright malicious intentions. I'd categorize him as more of an anti-hero, or anti-villain at worst.

Villains are usually dictated by narrative perspective. I choose to look at universes from an objective view and in TLOU Joel really is the only one that stands out as a villain.

What Dustbin said.

Favourite 'Villain' = Ra's Al Ghul. He was actually a hero though, foiled by Patrick Bateman's latest psychotic episode ;_;

Good old Bejamin Linus. Manipulative, cruel, cunning, the man with a plan, and inherently always self centered and interested. Even when he walked along the lines of what you could call "good," he always strayed along the lines. And most of all, not afraid to get his hands dirty.

I like female villains. Especially when they're Helena Bonham Carter.
