This definitely feels more like top 20 “most iconic” than 20 “best,” which isn’t necessarily a bad thing… there are just a lot of video game villains that are a lot better written and more interesting but not as well known outside of gaming.

Ironic is another way of saying “best”. They won’t be considered ironic if their concepts weren’t great and better than others. You can lose people by being too “well-written” if your concept isn’t simple to understand to begin with.

Yeah I agree. Michael Bell from RDR2 was a heck of a bad guy, but he's been in one game...opposed to Bowser or Ganon. I do agree with Vaas being one of the best and iconic regardless of the fact he was only in about a half a game though!

My honorable mention: Joker (Batman Arkham series) He is such a memorable villain for all Batman Arkham fans, as he is menacingly evil and always creates new plans to torment both Gotham and the Dark Knight. Ghetis (Pokémon Black and White series) He is probably my favorite Pokémon villain as he always puts a great threat to the player and the Unova region. I was surprised to see how dark Ghetis' storyline was, specifically when he revealed the truth about N. Definitely an impressive villain for a Pokémon game.

I would put Micah Bell on here. The things he does are incredibly fucked up but he knows exactly what he is doing and is a complete psychopath and enjoys. Also, the way that he manipulates and gaslights Dutch into not trusting Arthur anymore and into taking on riskier jobs is ultimately what led to the downfall of the game. He used Dutch as his puppet to emotionally manipulate and I though that was really fucked up and interesting. A great villain that has no redeeming qualities but is really fascinating and well developed nonetheless. Oh and yes of course his racism and the creepy way in which he treats women are yet another layer that show just how much of a monster Micah truly is.

I do not care what people said but Nintendo needs to consider the Age of Calamity timeline canon. We have seen how time can be split into two through The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Sot it's very oblivious that time travel has become a part of the Legend of Zelda lore/mythology. Depending on which time frame the player chooses, it would be fun to explore infinite possibilities like see the Champions of Hyrule are alive in the AoC timeline. I can hope we get a side quest in BOTW2 where we fight fight alongside with the current Champions (Riju, Teba, Sidon and Yunobo) to protect their respective villages / domains from monsters and share their memories from events of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.

The final encounter with ganondorf made it all worth it. Same with Twilight princess. AoC was not what nintendo promised. They said they would show what happened before the events of Botw yet it was the exact opposite. It was way too upbeat for something that was meant to be very dark

Leo Kasper from Manhunt 2 is pretty vile. An utterly ruthless former government assassin who's psyche was implanted into a mild mannered scientist as part of a convoluted plan to create the perfect untraceable assassin. Unfortunately Leo proved uncontrollable and seeks to become a prolific serial killer after performing his personality takeover. A true maniac who also feigns friendship all while planning to unleash chaos.

My favourite villain out of everyone in this video has gotta be Albert Wesker. The guy’s a literal badass and the only badass who looks good in sunglasses and an overcoat. His speed, strength, intelligence and vibe around him makes him feel like a great, superior villain who I feel like is too strong for his own universe, which is why he was killed by Chris Redfield’s plot armor. 😂

One of my honorable mentions for a great video game villian has to be junko enoshima from the danganronpa games Major spoilers for danganronpa She's very intelligent and had the insanity to betray and kill her sister for the sake of her despair and she managed to get a whole class to follow her orders and managed to get a kid to make her monokumas and along with her sister trapped the cast of the first game for her killing game and had a lot of tatics for all of the murders in the first game to occur and her personalities she created from bordem provide a lot of entertainment in the game and I thank Amanda Celine Miller and Erin Fitzgerald for voicing her

Honorable mention: Masayoshi Shido from Persona 5. He pulled the strings from behind the scenes since the beginning and had a penultimate boss fight that lasted at least a half an hour. Sure, he is only in one game but the impact he had on the overall story line was far-reaching and the hype his introduction and other events that happened brought on really sold it for me.

Sephiroth is the greatest villian of all time, with some of the best lore, best backstory, best drip, best theme music, best villany, best insanity...he checks every box for a really good villian. And we get to see the journey, not just have it told to us, we get to see his arc. He's a personal villan, not just a villan. I both love, and am immensely terrified of Sephiroth. Anyone who can manipulate an alien's mind from across a planet, create illusions in people's minds, use telekenesis, hurl planets, destroy solar systems and reality itself...yeah he's gonna be hard to beat
