Life Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 (edited) I wouldn't put Baelheit up there. There are better antagonists from the very same game, I'd say. Like who? Valara/Nasca/Heughes all deserve good beatings thanks to their stupid Machina Arma but once you destroy the MA, they're all weaklings. Wiseman is amazing but I consider him more of a God that needs a pummeling than an antagonist. Verus pisses me off a ton and doesn't deserve the spot (even though he calls Gena a whore). So who would you put up there as "your favourite antagonist" from BKO? Edited October 14, 2010 by Sue Sylvester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvercrow Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 (edited) I rather liked Wiseman but I can see how he's hard to count. I actually was thinking Shanath who you didn't mention, he's a real asshole for the whole game and killing him was immensely satisfying. Far moreso than the machina vanguard or Verus/Baelheit. I feel a villain has succeeded in their characterization when beating them makes you feel good.

Except that I felt bad for Shanath when I realized that Savyna was his kid. Like I'm the reason that she's so fucked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvercrow Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 I don't feel like that detracts from his status as a villain at all, really. If anything it made him a bit more interesting. He was definitely the best written villain in that game and was a less static character than most. ...plus Savyna was probably pretty fucked up before that. I mean she followed him around while he talked about assassinating people. That's pretty weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Laufeyson Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Oh snap! I forgot Krelian from Xenogears! This guy is weird. Hes a twisted son of a bitch too! <3 Krelian! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 You should play the second game. It's a lot better all-around, imo. The minute I find a physical copy, I'm buying it. I got damn lucky with the original, so here's hoping I can find this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Spoon Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Gravity is a wonderful antagonist. He appears in many game of varied genres, and I can't even begin to count the number of times that he has killed me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xiltas Crysten Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Sephiroth. He doesn't need an explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Alear Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Oh snap! I forgot Krelian from Xenogears! This guy is weird. Hes a twisted son of a bitch too! <3 Krelian! I like Grahf from Xenogears. He has awesome theme music, a really cool face and he's pretty interesting too. Meanwhile Kahr Ramsus is one of the weirdest mixes of cool and lame I've ever seen in a game villain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculuswhiz Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Grey Fox. The best cyborg ninja ever. Stealth camo, super speed, arm cannon, HF blade, super strength. Okay, maybe Big Boss. Just cuz it's Big Boss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Sephiroth. He doesn't need an explanation. Actually... he kinda does. Honestly, what is it that he wants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Spoon Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) Actually... he kinda does. Honestly, what is it that he wants? All that Sephiroth wants to know is whether or not you would like him to give you dis pear. Edited October 20, 2010 by General Spoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
