iirc, Vaati's sole drive was abusing Ezlo's powers from that capffor his own means just because he wouldn't let him use it; cursing Ezlo in the process.
he's no Ganondorf on the evil scale, but still quite a shithead
>>323999139
Amada was right.
>>324000653
>formed team plasma
>not the villain
>>324000796
Amada wasn't right at all!
It's not like humanity is dying of some mysterious illness, he just wanted to turn everybody into robots just because
And while I think it's wrong to go around exterminating those half robot children, it was wrong to make them in the first place
>>324000824
Pretty sure Ghetsis formed Team Plasma and N was a figurehead leader.
>>323999967
The only main villain to do something wrong in MGS was Volgin.
SkullFace wanted to stop Zero from creating the Patriots A.I. and even Soft Hardman had a decent purpose with deterrence.

Nothing. He was right about everything he said.
Everyone was so happy in the genjutsu he did nothing wrong.
>>324000986
Coldman was going to shoot nukes though. I don't remember what was the first target, but the second was MB. All sorts of things would've gone bad if the first target was shot.

>>323999513

That's all he did
All the others were done by Govener dude, since he was freaking out about his power, and Adachi just told him he could save people by pushing them in.
>>324004887
Top Kekman wanted to to use the peace walker system to make everyone afraid to use nukes, since PW would then fire back immediately. His plan hinged on the US gov not firing their nukes in response to the fake nuke signals, hoping that they wouldn't have the guts to push the extinction button.

team magma wanted the opposite with increasing landmass so that huamnity could continue to flourish, it had nothign to do with drying up the sea, it was about rising the land aboe FROM the sea

>>324010487
X was already dead and Ciel was out of Passys.
But it's symbolic, X that fought for humans keeping the reploids down, becoming a mere seal in his service turned to scrap for the new age of the machine. Then Zero fucked it up and not allowing humanity to get annihilated.
>>323999908
This is a legitimate good pick for this topic.
He may have become a hero of sorts, but damn one had to remember that he killed billions of humans. You could blame it on religion, but it still happened.

Well no, he was just your rival. Hell, he had more moral justification than some other rivals, since he was simply trying to make friends and obviously didn't know how far off the rails Ghetsis was.
>>324011145
pretty good list desu senpai
>>324010475
To be fair half the characters in the game did want to just outright kill you with no remorse. Asgore, Mettaton, Muffet and Flowey especially. Toriel wouldn't have hesitated to burn you to a crisp. Undyne hunted you in Frisk mode and Chara was just defending himself there. If the game was only those bosses, Chara wouldn't even be evil. It would just be a standard RPG. The only boss who actually did nothing wrong was Papyrus.
>>324011357
That doesn't change the fact that Chara's intent was to kill everything that moved on the planet.
>>324011414
The same could be said of Captain Olimar though.
With more pillaging loot from everything he murders for profit and enslaving locals to murder for him.
Half the shit you kill in Pikmin wouldn't even pursue you more than 5 feet.
>>324011414
If you found out furries were real, wouldn't you?

>>324011632
No.
I'd just kill the furrys, then stop.
Chara wasn't going to stop there.
>>324011552
Olimar is a space fairing locust, but that has nothing to do with this.
>>324011552
He wasn't enslaving them, the Pikmin were retarded as fuck and needed someone to guide them. Meanwhile Olimar needed help with getting the ship repaired.
Olimar was able to go back and the Pikmin learned to work together.Don't know about the other games.
>>324010869
He did keep his part of the promise.
Not like in any moment he told Wander that he was a cool guy and not a ancient demon.

If I recall correctly, in 2, him, his brother and his boss are doing it for profit.

Breen's actions were necessary for the Combine to not wipe out humanity on first contact, but he needed to die to allow humanity to gain ground again. If Freeman hadn't started an uprising, the planet would have been a dystopian shithole for decades, maybe centuries, before the entirety of the populace was converted or dead.
They wouldn't keep us as slaves forever, we're not as useful as the striders or whatever they used for gunships. They'd have just stripmined the planet and left us dead.
Also he's a dumbass for not realising how powerful the gravity gun was during the last sequence.

>>324014302
just because he's a horned entity with a black aura around him doesn't mean he needs much more to be a good guy.
I'm sure reviving the girl was a lot of trouble considering he didn't even manage to kill 3 idiots at the state he was.
He's a good dindu, just wanted to help his people.

Remove Huey and the list will be good. And why is Caim even there? He's not a fucking villain. Sure, he loves to murder, but so it happened that he was murdering eldritch abominations not innocent people.

>>324010721
>fulfilled his promise
>is natural
>the reason he was sealed was solely because of how powerful he was

You also have to remember that the colosi were anything but natural. The Colosi are man-made and are now "beautiful and innocent creatures" that people who never play the game claim they are
>>324019047

He even warned Wander that what he wants to do will cost him his life.
Did nothing wrong.
>>324018356
>Peace after death
Someone didn't play Chapter 22
Hades did everything wrongThat's what is so great about himbut at least he didn't constantly lie to himself like Viridi
>>324019174
Another piece of dialogue people often seem to forget about is at the end when Dormin possesses Wander's body.
He says something like he's "borrowing" it, certainly something that implies he was going to give it back.
He wasn't making a break for it in Wander's body, he was doing the best he could to fight off the humans who he knew were going to re-seal him and likely kill Wander and Mono if he didn't stop them.
>>324019697
Yes, he said "borrowed" in the cutscene. I'm surprised that after all these years someone actually finally noticed that Dormin wasn't necessary the evil. The people that showed up looked like ignorant fanatics to me instead, seeing how they callously executed Wander even though he showed no inclination to fight them.
>>323998715
>That entire castle segment
Jesus, it felt like something out of the Manga. N's basically Yellow when you get down to brass tacks.
>>324000998
The dude didn't do a single thing that you could consider non-villainous. And I'm not even talking about murdering the king.
>>324020272
Dormin is most definitely evil. I don't care how honorable he is, but you simply don't get sealed away in sixteen pieces in an uninhabited land if you didn't do something pretty terrible to earn it.
He was just a broken man.
>>324020493
Like transgress against an established religious dogma.
>>324020493
If the biblical references are to be believed, then his only crime was defying god.
>>324020272
Dormin is a being with power over death, he was likely sealed simply because the humans believed him unholy or his powers challenged their own religious creed.
While he looks the part of a death god and his essence has a negative affect on Wander's health (turning black, as he did), that's hardly Dormin's fault and there's nothing in the game to suggest he's malicious- he seems quite reasonable if not kind to Wander, depending on how you interpret certain things.
I regard people who come out of SotC thinking Dormin was an evil entity who tried to trick Wander (of whom I've met more than one) as simply having not been paying attention.
>>324017396
I never played the game, but I saw he reside into the tree is because the Owl was giving a home for its children then Ori ended up killing him and the children. Basically all this time it was defending itself in a sense.

That was the goal.
>>324011357
>Toriel wouldn't have hesitated to burn you to a crisp.

>>324020723
He might not have tricked Wander, but that doesn't make him any less evil. That just makes him openly evil.
Him telling Wander that continuing down this path means that he will be corrupted and die does not excuse the fact that he corrupts and possesses Wander in the end.
The Devil is the Devil, even if he introduces himself to you as such.
>>324021126
It was a fair trade, a life for a life, stop being such a little bitch.
>>324021126
Except that he didn't corrupt and kill him, the humans at the shrine did. Death is the nature of his power. It's like complaining that you have burned your hand because you stuck it in the fire. Wander was willing to jump into the fire for the sake of that girl and so he got burned. Doesn't make Dormin The Devil.
>>324021220
And I'm saying that a non-evil entity wouldn't have agreed to Wander's plan to throw his life away like that.
Dormin saw a chance to break free and took it. He kept his promise to resurrect Mono, but it was of little joy to Wander, who was already dead by that time.
Dormin's reasons to help were completely selfish.
>>324004650
This. Best Real Hero of /v/.
>>324020730
Basically it went like thisowl had babies. Ori's tree dad was so concerned with finding Ori that he put on that huge light show that was actually super dangerous to living beings (hence Ori's adopted mom hurrying him inside when it started). The Lightshow killed all the baby owls that had hatched. To protect her last baby, mama owl killed all the tree things because for all she knew the had just murdered her babies for fun.
>>324020575
He wasn't even the villain of the story. Just because you fight him doesn't mean he's the villain. The villains of the story are Chara and Flowey, they are the main antagonists.
>>324021608
And it's suspect if it even was Dormin that caused Mono's revival, or the energies from the well that sucked the Dormin corrupted Wander in.
>>324004078
>Proudmoore

>>324021608
>completely selfish
>guy breaks through forbidden territory with girl and starts annoying you to revive her
>you even tell him that he won't get to actually live with her if this works
>he still accepts it
>selfish
He was completely neutral, saying he's evil proves you to be a fool and nothing else.
>>324021126
He didn't intend to corrupt him, as >>324021384 says
And, as said in >>324019697, >>324020272, I think it was pretty apparent he was going to give Wander his body back and only possessed him because it offered the best chance of survival for not just himself, but Wander and Mono as well.
I believe that restoring Wander to life as a child was Dormin's final act for Wander: the best he could given Wander's corrupted body.
>>324022381
>Going along with the boy's plan kills him
>If you were moral, you would ignore his pleas
>Instead, help him kill himself because you want to use his body to break free
He's evil. Just accept it, anon.
>>323998715
Tell me, /v/, how good were Carmack's games once Romero left?
>>324022381
Exactly.
If Dormin just wanted to be revived and nothing else, what could he possibly have to gain by warning Wander this is probably a bad idea?
>>324022672
Are there any? I know Romero made Daikatana, and that sucked.
>>324022569
good thing neutral is a thing, and he did that pact just as much to kill Wander as to ressurect Mono, so it's 1 - 1.
Stop now, it's getting embarassing.
>>324022312
Good job destroying entire world by handing it on a silver platter to Horrors.
>>324022312
>siding with him dooms the entire world
>did nothing wrong
>>324011145
where the fuck is Adachi?
you can't make one of those lists without Adachi.
>>324022569
You're ignoring evidence.
Why did he say he was "borrowing" Wander's body?
Why did he revive Mono and possibly Agro and Wander as well?
Why did he warn Wander against what he was planning on doing?
If someone is informed of what fate awaits them and they still want to go through with it, it's not immoral if that also happens to benefit you.
>>324022798
And what astonishingly neutral act caused him to be split up into sixteen pieces and sealed away in an uninhabited land?
You can try to imply it was simple fanaticism, but judging by the priest's reaction to him being free, there's a very good chance that him getting out of the forbidden land would be a very bad thing indeed.
I would say Moon Presence and Orphan of Kos from Bloodborne both qualify. MP keeps Gherman prisoner but at the same time he's helping mankind with the Hunter's Dream, which seems to illustrate that he is generally sympathetic towards humans.
>>324022798
But he didn't want to kill Wander, he merely warned that his death was a pretty distinct probability.
Wander's body had to be used as a vessel to transport Dormin's essence back to the temple and that stuff ain't healthy.
And in the end, Wander didn't die. Possibly, depending on how you interpret it, because Dormin brought him back to life.
>>324022968
But going along with it knowing that you will kill the person (even if they claim to want it) does.
Also, there's zero evidence that it was Dormin who caused any of the revivals at the end. If anything, I would say that the well was responsible for it all.
>>324023040
There's no evidence to suggest that Dormin would have done evil deeds if he were freed.
The priest and his confederates were the violent, murderous ones.
It was apparent in the narrative they were religious zealots, it's not much of a leap to conclude their people likely sealed Dormin because they found his existent at odds with their religious beliefs.
He's like a pagan deity in the face of Christianity. Not evil, but an entity they found blasphemous.
>>324022793
>Daikatana
Yeah, it sucked and sucked hard.
Eidos succumbed to the dotcom craze and let him turn the office into a playground without putting any real measures on productivity or progress.
It didn't help that what Romero was trying to do at the time just wasn't there in terms of technology and AI.
>>324023040
You're working on assumptions now.
There's as much of a chance of Dormin being sealed for mere religious reason as much of him being actually a evil being that brings destruction.
With what we actually have to work on, he's neutral.
end.
Plague Knight did pretty much nothing wrong
>>324023428
None of the Knights were really evil , right? Tinker, Propellor and Mole all seem like pretty decent people, if a bit crazy.
>>324018721
Caim's evil in both games and all spin of material. He does kill innocent people, just as long as they're not his people. He's a cunt like that.
>>324023141
So facilitating someone's wish to die in order to save a loved one is evil?
And denying someone's overpowering desire to bring back a loved one when you have the power to grant it is correct?
Wander chose freely.
>>324023401
If it was for mere religious reasons, why would they go to such lengths with it? (SIXTEEN fucking pieces, all sealed into a guardian golem)
You don't do something that drastic just due to religious dogma, there had to be some risk that Dormin posed to the world around him, whether it was an intentional one or not.
>>324023141
No, he's neutral. Dormin didn't trick Wander and didn't force him to keep going. He was completely honest about the fact that shit could end badly. The fact that he gets freed as a bonus doesn't make him evil
>>324023040
You can try to imply it was simple fanaticism, but judging by the priest's reaction to him being free, there's a very good chance that him getting out of the forbidden land would be a very bad thing indeed.
Well Dormin was probably gonna go wreck the shit of the guy who imprisoned him

Stop. No one is fucking innocent in Drakengard, except for the fucking farmers and peasants and the worst Caim did to those was kick an elf in frustration.
You would have done the same.
>>324023710
>You don't do something that drastic just due to religious dogma
Can you even read what you're saying? People today, in this reality kill themselves and murder others by the hundreds if not thousands for religious reasons. It's not a far stretch to assume that binding someone by using magic macguffins could be done because of religious fundamentalism. That and the whole "girl with a cursed fate, let's leave her to die in the infertile lands because that's what we should do". If that doesn't raise any red flags about how correct and peaceful the religion of Wander's people is, I don't know what will.
>>324023718
He didn't trick Wander, but he also didn't refuse to help him on the grounds that it would kill him.
He practically agreed to assist with Wander's suicide, and the reason he agreed to do that is because it would allow him a chance to free himself. We don't know if he actually even kept his end of the bargain as there is no way to demonstrate what ended up resurrecting Mono.
>>324007958
Aqua Team Hunger Force
>>324023892
The sealing itself is not the thing that's hard to believe to be fanaticism, but the degree of it and the measures taken are far too heavyhanded for there to be no reason for it other than religious zeal.
>>324023860
>plan to merge with an insanely powerful AI
I did exactly the same
>>324023710
He was sealed in SIXTEEN fucking pieces for GAMEPLAY purposes.
If he was sealed in less it would be a pretty shitty game.
And you don't even know how hard it was to split him in 16 pieces, so there's no way to know if it was a major thing or not.
As I said, this is just "maybe they had a good reason and he's actually evil", from what we've seen him in the game, he's neutral.
There's no reason to believe otherwise, right now we're just arguing fan work that could just as much be that he was sealed for being a good guy as a he was sealed for being a evil guy.
Satan is just doing his thing bringing about the apocalypse in a timely manner. Then some asshole shows up and murders everything in sight.
Some quirks about the game:
-This game had bullet time before Max Payne made it famous
-If you click and hold in the game menu, it will reveal the signatures of one of the developers (this was before anybody realized how bad of an idea this was)

His last cutscene was my favorite in the entire game.
>>324023932
>he's evil because he assisted Wander's "suicide" and he only wanted to be free!
He agreed to it because he couldn't really do much else.
What would he do? "I'm not going to help you no matter what because I might get freed and that would be bad?"
God fucking damnit.
If you were in his situation and this guy came asking to ressurect someone and the only way you could do it was if you were unsealed, and the only way you can be liberated is if you take over his body, he agrees with that idea anyway, because he's willing to do anything for her, you would be evil for going through with that?
What kind of fucked up moral compass is that?

I'm saying that if he really wasn't evil or at the very least morally ambiguous, then killing someone for his freedom, even if it was an unintended side effect, would not sit well with him.
>>324023807
It's not his fault some people can't take a joke.
Plus he was completely justified.
>>324022432
>grasping at straws
>>324024953
And you're failing to understand that it was a request.
He didn't kill anyone for his freedom, it wasn't the objective of their pact.
It was the only way to bring Mono back to life, and anyone could see that Wander was willing to go through anything for her.
It wasn't a "I'm going to kill you".
He never tried to trick Wander in any way or form, he was completely honest about it.
Do you know why sealed ancient evil and demons never keep their part of the promise and are always lying when unsealed in histories and such?
Because they're evil.
>>324025406
How do you know Dormin kept his promise? There's no indication of what caused Mono to live again.
>>324022968
Your logic fucking sucks. Apply that to anything else its still a bad act
>>324025501
This bullshit again?
You know Wander did go directly to him for a reason right?
So it's obvious that Dormin did have ressurecting powers.
Now even through there's enough proof that Dormin was the one responsible for doing it, We will keep trying to pin it on a well for no good reason just to say he's evil.
If Dormin was just trying to get himself free, he could certainly have tried to sweet talk Wander about actually losing his body, but he never did.
And once again, everything points toward Dormin being neutral.
>>324023085
Moon presence is the only "evil" great one as its causing harm to the other great ones by endlessly sending hunters to try and slain them.
>>324025406
Again, it being a request does not absolve the party that agrees to honor that request.
If someone asks you to help to kill themselves and you agree instead of trying to talk them to back out of it, that's morally dubious.
And no, "You know this will kill you, right?" does not count as a try to talk someone down.
>>324011145
Get illias and Chara out of there.
>>324011145
Do people actually defend the guy from deadly premonition?
>>324025948
That doesn't make the one who agrees to carry out that request evil. It is being done for the greater good - in this case resurrection of the girl. You said it yourself. It's morally dubious aka morally gray area. And don't you think trying to talk someone down who stole a sacred relic and came into cursed lands and will be punished with death for his transgressions, if he is caught, a silly idea?
>>324025808
>For no good reason
>Well purified Wander of Dormin's influence, and regressed him back to a baby, indicating it can turn back time for individuals in its presence
>>324025948
You keep spewing that as if Dormin just killed Wander for no good reason as if he was asked to murder him and he did, but it wasn't that.
He did that for a reason, it was the only way to SAVE someone. someone dear to Wander.
You better not go on about Dormin not actually ressurecting mono again.
>>324026180
Wander went through the well, Mono didn't.
>>324026180
>The more colossi Wander killed, the closer Mono came to returning back to life
>It wasn't Dormin's doing!
>>324023085
None of the great ones can be applied normal morals. That being said MP is the only great one we know of who is hostile to other great ones which makes it the most evil I'd say given the great ones are supposed to somewhat care for humans. Everything else horrible that happens is humans fault for messing with things they can't understand and killing beautiful mother kos.
Also poor gherman just wants someone to save him.
The whole point of SotC is that Wander is a lovestruck retard that cannot let go of Mono and makes a pact with a dubious deity in an attempt to rescue her, losing everything in the process.
The scene at the very end where you can keep holding on but can not actually get to Mono delivers this point home. You can keep holding on as long as you want to, but eventually you have to let go, just as Wander has to let go of Mono.
With that in mind, it doesn't make sense for Dormin to be anything but evil, because then Wander's pact with him isn't as meaningful in context of the themes in the game.
>>324026930
That's your interpretation, stated as fact.
>>324026930
If the point to get across was that Dormin is just a stuck up asshole, they wouldn't shown Mono actually getting up.
nor the heart warming scene with Mono and the baby.
>>324027235
The point the game tries to relay is that love makes us do retarded things, such as make a pact with an ancient evil, even if we know that it's an incredibly bad idea, and that in the end, it's best to come to terms with loss and let go.
That's why Dormin being a neutral being that is simply helping Wander just because does not work, because that wouldn't highlight the desperation of Wander as well as him being evil.
>>324026930
>losing everything
>Mono actually got ressurected as he wanted
>Aggro is still alive
Not only it's your interpretation, but it's objectively wrong.
This guy
>>324027763
He doesn't even get to see that happen, though. For all intents and purposes, as far as Wander is concerned, he lost everything and gained nothing.
>>324027652
You're amazing.
That was the point of the game for you? really?
Actually getting your love back to life, just as you wished for while losing your body as you know it would happen is a "retarded things, and a incredible bad idea"?
>>324027989
What are you even trying to say? That it was completely rational for Wander to want to die/lose his body for a mere chance that Mono might live again, even though he could not share in that joy?
All of it was grief-fueled desperation, an insane bid for something that is out of mortal hands.
>>324028501
>Out of mortal hands
>Clear evidence of magic existing
>He could hear Mono stir the closer he came to killing all of the colossi and calling his name
Keep digging that hole. Maybe you should take your own advice and let go, because you've lost this argument.
>>324028624
>The power of an evil god
>Mortal hands
>>324028501
Considering the things he did for Mono, he was almost certainly going to die anyway and he managed to save her as he wanted.
This is as good as SotC could have ended.
If in YOUR OPINION, that was stupid and retarded, because he didn't get to live with her (that is wrong as well because baby Wander from well), that still doesn't mean anything about Dormin being evil.
>>324028765
>he's shadowy and his domain is death
>that must mean he's evil
>>323998715
>>324029118
hey i know that guy
didn't he do a mctwist over a helicopter?
fucking badass
>>324028857
Yes, that is as good as the game could have ended because the point was that Wander couldn't let go and continue on with his life after Mono died. Then at the end he finally realizes that he can't keep clinging to Mono and, both figuratively and literally, lets go.
The fact that his endeavors actually paid off (which is a pretty generous way of putting it) is irrelevant to the message of the story, which is that love drives us to do crazy things because we do not want to accept loss. Even though Mono and Wander both lived on, they cannot return to what they had before.
>>324023807
Was he involved in the prank to his sisters or was he unaware?
>>324029169
Elaborate. I think I remember this character but I don't recall what she did.
>>324029898
They never wanted to return to what it was before.
Wander knew it would never go back to what it was before, he just wanted to save the love of his life, and he did.
You're taking that message of the story out of your ass and it doesn't even make sense, considering he actually did get to live with her once again, which is more than he ever asked for.
>>324030381
So you're saying that without thinking how she would feel about it, Wander wanted to resurrect Mono at the price of his own life, possibly condemning her into a life of misery without him?
>>324030158
She tried to purge the world of androids so that she could resurrect humanity
>>324022875
>tazes the cutest girl in the world
Literally everything wrong.
>>324030731
Yes, Wander did.
And not only he went through with that, but he also got to live together with her as a baby.
If the idea of this game was to give the player a message that making a pact with a deity that will get you killed was just plain wrong and stupid, Mono wouldn't have lived, Aggro would have died, and Wander wouldn't have turned back into a baby.
Good thing it didn't, because now that would be stupid.
And good thing there's no ressurecting deity parts scattered through a forbidden land in form of giant colossus so people don't try to ressurect their lovers in exchange of their own in real life.
Also, did I say this was a game? so it doesn't necessarily have a "message" in it.
>>324030882
Sounds like a dick move.
>>324031301
If you're a dirty carbon sympathizer maybe
>>324031264
And you don't think that was selfish and a sign of lack of good judgment on Wander's part? Like, you know, the actions of a desperate man ready to do anything to hold on to what he has lost, in hopes of getting it back.
The fact that it worked doesn't mean that it wasn't foolish and pretty much gambling.
>>324032016
It was a reckless decision? obviously it was, if there wasn't any danger with it, then it would have 0 impact, it wouldn't be a compelling story at all.
It's the only reason we're even having this argument.
As I said before, If YOU thought it was a bad call on Wander's part, and that you wouldn't do it, good for you, you're rational.
To think this all started with Dormin's morality in question.
>>324032443
Then why do you disagree on the message of the story if you agree that Wander's actions were reckless?
>>324011145
Illias is an abomination so, by default, a villain that should be purged. Her very existence is "doing wrong".
