Villainous Alts - Ganondorf - 10-08-2013
Just a list of ideas I might do, if I do pick up an alt.
Parasite
Dr Doom
Magneto
Lex Luthor
T-1000
I already play the best videogame villain... but I'm looking for something a bit more antagonistic and overt. Ganondorf is a long scheme kinda villain. If I pick up an alt, I'll need the get shit done now and worry about the consequences later villain.

*Tosses in vote for Magneto.*

Magneto is legit.
Re: Villainous Alts - Nightwing - 10-08-2013
Taking what you said into consideration, Parasite or T-1000 might just be the better choices. Dr Doom and Lex Luthor are too calculated. They both create intricate plans and anticipate multiple scenarios.
Magneto is kind of limited, always trying to promote the status of homo superior but then again, it would be interesting to see how he'd respond to a change like this. Given there aren't other mutants really, besides maybe Deadpool.

I thought about that, but those seem a lot more like NPC type villains to me. Dumbledore and Professor Xavier being NPCs but Voldemort and Magneto being PCs wouldn't compute with me.
Re: Villainous Alts - Proto Man - 10-09-2013
Dr. Doom was pretty high on my list when I was going to be a villain with my alt.
Re: Villainous Alts - Ganondorf - 10-09-2013
Forgot about this one: Handsome Jack.

If I were to go with a villain alt it would probably be Jon Irenicus.
Re: Villainous Alts - Magus - 10-09-2013
He wanted a 'be evil straight away' villain. Irenicus was... ah... motivated, but he's the calculating type, for sure.
Re: Villainous Alts - Ganondorf - 10-09-2013
Any villain I pick is, of course, gonna need to be obviously evil, but I do prefer villains with plans. It's hard to roleplay a villain with no motivation other than being a dick for the long run. I just want someone who doesn't bother to hide the fact that he's evil, which everyone I've listed thus far doesn't.

*Pulls out slip of paper she voted on crosses out Magneto and writes Handsome Jack*
Re: Villainous Alts - Ganondorf - 10-09-2013
No need for voting anymore. It's gonna be Jack. He's just too epic a villain not to play.
Re: Villainous Alts - MDGEIST - 10-09-2013
One day maybe I'll bring in the greatest character in anime history as a potential villain:
MAD BULL 34.
Youtube that shit, he'll change your worldview entirely.

The hell they don't! Luthor is totally convinced he's the good guy, same with Magneto. :/
Re: Villainous Alts - Ganondorf - 10-09-2013
Oh, I agree. Handsome Jack also thinks that he's the good guy. It's not about how the villain views himself. It's how the world views him that I'm looking for. Right now, and possibly forever, the Omniverse is probably gonna view Ganondorf as neutral at best. Sure, we all know he's a bad guy, but he's never gonna make it super obvious, unless something happens where he's unable to hide his true nature any longer. At which point, you'll all see a brand new side of this character.
I do appreciate villains that view themselves as heroes though. Ganondorf is kind of like that now. Oh, he knows he's a bad guy, but he feels that the ends justify the means. Order. Security. Prosperity. Safety. These are all things he's striving for. And if he has to take away every last freedom of his subjects to give them these things, he will.

Another "cool" option would be to play as Simon. Aka: the Ice King.
