On the topic of villains, who is everyone's favorite video game villain?


For me, it's definitely Handsome Jack from Borderlands 2. He's quite the compelling character, as he genuinely considers himself to be the hero of the story. Granted, he did start out with good intentions, but eventually went off the deep end. Plus he's hilarious.

Runners-up are Daud from Dishonored and Porky from Earthbound/Mother 3.
:ultkrool:obviously but you probably knew anyways.

My Aunt is in the hospital and she's not expected to live another 24 hours
Thank you all for the support btw :yoshi:
You know your girl Lady Haruka is praying for you and your aunt. Our God can work miracles. Let me tell you something: my step-grandmother turns 81 next month and she has gone through a lot of **** the past year: car wreck, fell in her own bathtub, even had her house broken into. But she has made it through and my step-family is glad about it.

Wait, you're Brazilian too? I guess that explains why you like Digimon so much then.

Kurapika from HunterXHunter

Speaking of which, how many of you guys know what Kurapika sounds like in Portuguese?

Sometimes I'll try to fit the specific emotional beat or theme I want even if it doesn't so I have to write everything around it and it's a mess.

Also, it's hard for me to decide on a setting or genre but the one thing that's consistent are the characters and their relationshios with one another which mught indicate what I value most of all.
Yes i am

Does anyone remember "This is Sparta!" becoming practically an internet sensation?
Memes did not exist at that time.

It looks like a Fairy Tail character. I promise I have never seen the series before.
Also I do not understand Portuguese, so I do not know. Pikachu?

:ultbowser: Between his portrayal in the Mario RPG games and the fact he was the first video game villain I ever saw, he's definitely number 1 for me.

I mostly play Nintendo games, so I don't have experience with too many non-Nintendo villains.

My sincere condolences to you and your family.

Kura sounds just like "Cura" which means "healing" or "heals" but the best part is that Pika is slang for the D-word

Sora got "leaked"? Neato. Kinda crazy to think we MIGHT get two Square characters in the Fighters Pass.

It seems like the leak is more of a Piggyback of the old one because it also has Joker, Erdrick, Steve, and Doom Slayer. It's always fun to have leaks that contradict each other. Keeps you on your toes.

'Nuff said

Ah, nah, Puyallup is South from my city and you gotta cut through Seattle.
Oh okay. I was close enough. That would've been a huge coincidence :yoshi:

I'm so sorry to hear that GEY, you have my condolences. Please stay strong.

On another topic, what's this about a Sora leak?

My personal idea for a villain was a manipulative, spiteful and sadistic pragmatist. He'll screw people over for funsies and revel in it but will never cut off ties to someone he feels is valuable and won't spoil the plan unless he's found a seemingly ironclad path to victory. His motivation? He's a demon. He's made to and wants to hurt people. The only difference is that he's ambitious and wants to be the best demon to have ever existed.

I do not care what anyone says, Robbie Rotten is a great villain and better than a handful of other villains.
He was entertaining, and the protagonists always bought up his disguises, and he often learned important lessons. Robbie Rotten actually has a lot of character too. If you all say I am joking, I am not joking.

Dang it, I hate getting spoiled.
Also Sora has to call the plumbers.

I dug up my old 360 to play some Minecraft.

The controller is unresponsive and it doesn't connect with my new TV correctly.

Feels bad man.

I really like Dr. Weil from the Megaman Zero series. He's only ever properly introduced in Mega Man Zero 3, but his actions have been directly related to the events of the entire series and even events from before the first game even begins. He tried to help humanity solve the problem of the Mavericks, but he used methods that were too extreme, which resulted in him being punished and isolated from the world due to how destructive he is. He then develops a hatred for every single being in the planet. The reploids for being the ones that started the problem, and humanity for punishing him for his methods. He's so smart that before the beginning of the first game he managed to manipulate every reploid and mechaniloid to work under him, killed about 3/4 of the planet's population, snatched Zero's original body (with all of the abilities he got in the entire X series) and made it his servant, got rid of X, and enslaved a being that generated infinite power. He even manages to manipulate Zero into helping him obtain what he wants a few times. Whenever he shows up in the games, you know that something bad is going to happen. His final battle at the end of the series is also awesome.

Favorite game villain?

GLaDOS and Bowser, they're both amazing. Bowser's my favorite Mario character overall, too. I'd join Bowser's army.

You can get Minecraft Java for twenty dollars. A steal, I would say.
Also if you want a more modified version, get Bedrock.

I am a Java user.

Criminy, I didn't even catch this one. Welp, hope you don't mind if others respond with multiples.


A given and predictable choice, I know, but still a relatable one. Bowser has tons of qualities that make him my favorite villain; he never gives up, is genuinely nice to his minions, is a great parent, has a creative design, and on his best days, is just an all-around cool dude to hang out with. I play him regularly in games he's playable in (my main in Super Mario Party, mind you), and love a large majority of his boss fights (note I said "most," not "all."


As a Shantae fan, Risky is tied with Shantae herself and Bolo as my favorite character from the games. Aside from being a bloody pirate (one souped up on dark magic, no less), she definitely has her moments of hilarity while still maintaining a threatening aura throughout the series, most prominent with her inventions (yes, the TinkerSlug had a misfortunate acronym, but it can still crush you like a bug). If Shantae gets in, I'd be all for Risky following along (read; Richter and Ken have given the go-ahead for more than one third-party fighter per franchise, echo status nonwithstanding).

Sora, eh? Better than only Erdrick I guess. This only gets worse for Geno though as the only way I could've seen him maybe getting in is if he was a Second Square rep and Sora's turning out to be the Second rep. R.I.P Geno he couldn't have been even the third Square rep which is funny considering some thought he could be the first or even second. Sora is definitely cool though so I got no problems with him.

I misread that as tropes you always use, I was going to say that the tropes I use are the exact opposite. But then I realized I didn't see that it said "tropes I avoid like the plague" LMAO

> "Sora got leaked guys"

Okay, so how come we haven't seen it in the past hour or so get trending, because wouldn't that be the case? Just a simple Instagram picture from an ex-supervisor for Smash got people talking in an instant, and I haven't seen any of this at all around various sites. I'll be on my "Critique That Leak" ****, but when we see some legit stuff come out, I'm calling some BS.

Not to mention, "two Square reps".

...what the **** did I just read.png
