Any other games where the main villain isn't the final boss?
Bloodborne. The church and it's various subsects were the main villains.
>>344579109Far Cry 2 and Far Cry 4
Dark Souls

Bloodborne had no villains. It's also had no heroes. Bloodborne is depressing.
>>344579836
Manus was technically the final boss.

Skies of Arcadia
Golden Sun
Sonic Adventure

The church were definitely the villains, it's just that they were pretty much all dead or transformed. They lead the expedition into the Fishing Hamlet. The school of Mensis fried everyone in Yahar'gul, summoned the one reborn and created the nightmare of Mensis. The Choir is responsible for the orphanage and presumably assassination Iosefka. Fuck the church.
Also I'd say Gherman was the closest thing to a hero.

What the fuck is wrong with Sully's face, anyway?

He's got roots coming out of his nostrils.

>main villain is a complete push over and joke of a boss fight
any games do this too?
FF4
>>344579109
Some Touhou games, TD and SA at the very least.

>Main villain gets stabbed in the back by his right hand
>In his final moments he helps you right before his soul gets eaten
Star Fox Adventures.
Final boss came out of nofuckingwhere
Super Paper Mario
>>344579109Lothric is the main villain
>>344580704
Closest? Gherman, Rom and the Moon Presence were totally the heroes.
FF7 with Hojo
>>344579109
Phantasy Star 2. Darkforce is the penultimate boss, though theEarth humansare the true villains.
bioshock, borderlands 2
>>344581358
Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2, and Bloodborne
Pretty much any JRPG that does the "bwa ha ha" you only met me once in some random place that has no bearing on the rest of the story but I am the until ultimate mastermind of everything!" switcheroo at the very end if the gane
>Create the perfect villain
>have him be fought midway through the game with no cutscene or dialouge
So can we just admit that the Souls has the worst writers?

Spotted someone who didn't learn to parry i guess

Shit I forgot about Rom, good call. I don't think any great ones can be judged on a scale of human morality, so MP is out for me, but it did presumably make immortality possible for hunters.
>>344583158
didn't you know? O&S are the main villains. They abuse every day Gwendolyn in his crypt, they pushed artorias into the abyss, they bullied Priscilla into the painting and took over anal londo to allow gay marriage so they could crown their faggot dream
>>344579109
>tfw Ludleth wasn't the ending baddie
I would've bet money that he was gonna pull a Gehrman and reveal the he was actually sitting on his legs the entire time and be this crazy fast cunt of a final boss

Sulyvahn can't really be the main "villain". The things he's doing have nothing to do with the protagonist's goal, which is to bring in the Lords of Cinder. He gets in your way at some point, so you kill him and proceed on. Stopping him wouldn't complete your quest, and it wouldn't save the world.

that isnt how you hold a spear

Dark Souls didn't really have any real villains. It's basically just a creation mythology. Maybe Gwyndolin or Seath though...?
>>344583987
He's more the villain in the greater context of the universe. He set everything in motion for the age of The Deep.
>>344580224
Wrong muchacho. You are the final boss
>>344583432
>implying Gywn was a villain
