The villian's...

What do you think about the villians in the Final Fantasy games? Do you sometimes wonder why they ended up the way they are or why they are so hungry for such power? Please talk about villians from all Final Fantasy-related games only.

 

A friend and I listed all the psychological issues with the main villains. But I don't remember them all.

Exdeath - Nihilistic
Kefka - Insane
Sephiroth - Mother issues
Ultimecia - Egomaniac
Kuja - Megalomaniac (I think that is something. Don't remember)
Jecht - Abusive father

 

The villians in XII were not really evil,more extremists really.Vayne had good intentions,just Id rather have freedoms and be alive rather then die in a war,probably one that doesnt even involve my country/city-state/whatever.

Jecht was certainly not a villian.He didnt have too much of a choice,being that they didnt have a super cool airship with an awesome gun that noone knew what it would do except maybe help.Plus they didnt know if something could stop SIn.It had already been shown that the Hymn could cal Sin down,which probably ment it gave Jecht some control over its actions.

Spehy has mommy issues for sure.

 

Also, Sephiroth doesn't have mother issues, he has a God Complex.

 

It is both. Along with a Messiah Complex as well.

 

"Mother issues" implies problems with his mother. He does not have those, he uses his "Mother" Jenova as the fuel for his God Complex. The mother thing is actually not very prevalent, since Jenova's conciousness no longer exists, being overwhelmed and destroyed by Sephiroth. If anything, he has replaced his "mother" as the new god.

 

Sorceress Adel is attractive. She's a sexy man. There should be more of a background of how she even attained her powers in the first place. I would go out with a sexy man like her.

 

I guess because to little kids, it looks like she will eat them. XD Oh wow. To me, she is as powerful as she can get and she's very intelligent. I wonder what would happen if her conscious overcomes Ultimecia's powers...

 

I found this distracting as well. Why is it that Adel and Edea look like that, while Ultimecia has wings on her head? I mean, what's the point in that anyway? Does she need to fly using her head? I doubt it. She can probably warp to wherever she wants.

Adel is a disturbing sorceress though, rather than being beautiful like Edea. Truthfully, a muscular woman is no bad thing, but when you add the pale skin, the long nails, the "veins" I believe they are, it just becomes grotesque.

Edea however is how I would invision a sorceress to appear. She has the long black dress. The long nails and fingers. And the pale skin was perfect. Oh my those eyes...absolute perfection. Shes' just one badass B.

 

??? Ultimecia don't have wings on her head. She have wings on her back. Also, the reason as to why Adel looks like that is mostly because of the corruption of the sorceress powers and that she have no knight to protect her or to control her. Edea is an exception because she did not choose to turn evil but Ultimecia's power overcame her conscious. Plus, Edea has been a sorceress for the longest and never turned evil. Look at that final time compression sorceress that looks very ugly. Actually, cross her out. The Sorceress powers are immortal so even if the woman is on the verge of death, it seems that it will not perish until that person will give it up to another person. Why the woman can't jsut give it up to a man, I do not know. Ultimecia could've changed her fate if she gave it to Squall.

 

-____- I dislike him more in Dissidia. I don't like the actor for him. Just feels so bleh. in FFIX, I like him better because he's more evil.

 

Kuja was alright.Made a good villian,he really did good on destroying a lot.Black mage slaves,killed a main characters mother,actually fought the party and won (story wise).Of course,in Dissidia they basically condensed their personalities and character growth into each stroy that takes about one hour to beat,so...your miliege may vary.

 

Looks can decieve you. XD Look at Kefka. He looks like a clown. "HEY! I'M GOING TO WHOOP HIM EASILY!!" But before you know it, a cutscene pops up where he destroys you.

 

I guess it's because that Kuja acts more feminine and that he acts like more of a rival against Zidane.

 

Its also the popularity.Seph is only regarded as he is because so many people like VII alot.Same with Kefka for VI.Not as many people like IX to that much worship level as those two games,and thus they are considered as great villians while other ones are cast aside.You dont hear as much about even CHAOS as you do those two.

Not sure if Dissidia changed that at all,but I doubt it.
