Great antagonists

"Socialism" is a left ideology

However, "Nationalism" is right-wing

The consensus is the Nazis were right-wing because le evil wacism, fascism, and the fact they all despised the Soviets and Communism

No, it isn't. It isn't either wing.

YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY…

...

nigger, that's a universal thing, natsoc =/= fascism, and everyone hated the communists/marxists because they were retarded.

anyway lets not shit up the thread with politics

WHAT'S THAT, ANTLER??

ALL TOASTERS TOAST TOAST

Any games where it turns out the protagonist(you) turns out to be the villain? And no, I don't mean he starts out as one or something.

I know there's a good amount, but the only two I can think of are Braid and Star Wars KOTOR.

I can't think of anyone more evil.

I think people underestimate just how fucking sly Wily was. But then, I don't think most people who played the games are even aware that he achieved lichdom, let alone how he managed it.

He should've had more skittles

Hell, even in just the classic series before he became functionally immortal the dude was always prepared. He had backup plans for his backup backup plans, and then when those failed he was persistent enough to to just try again using someone else as a front this time. Not to mention the sheer over-the-topness with his skull shaped castles, UFO's, holograms and decoys. I mean you're talking about the dude who tried to convince his nemesis that he was a space alien with nothing but a hologram projector and a dark room.

Explain.

Cool but how is he a lich?

You only first see him right before you fight him as a boss, and he gets usurped as the main villain almost immediately afterward.

reploid phylactery?

Pixy did nothing wrong

The error he made was a scientific one, since the mutants he made were sterile.

Agreed. Haltmann was probably the weakest of all the Kirby foes. Suzy is present vastly more.

Queen Sectonia, on the other hand, was pretty fantastic and she never got usurped, just going to more and more insane lengths to beat Kirby.

Makes her death all the more sad when she used to just be a friend of Taranza, but that fucking mirror brainwashed her

Every time he dies he just transfers his consciousness into a new robot body. It's not exactly lichdom, but it's the sci-fi equivalent

I feel the urge to reply to you with pic related.

OH I LOVE YOU SHADOW LORD, COME OVER AND GIVE WIESS A BIG SLOPPY KISS SHADOW LORD.

The fact that he's more than an one dimensional evil force and actually a person makes him the best Kirby antagonist.

It's much worse than that. It's a two-part system. His consciousness exists within a highly infectious computer virus which prioritizes infecting robots, and by this point in the story, there are several billion robots which are advanced enough to be considered free-willed, let alone those that aren't. He also invented a robot which, through the use of this virus, is capable of energy/matter/data conversion, meaning that the real world can be rewritten at a whim based on data. Furthermore, wherever this robot/virus travels, it somehow permanently modifies space itself to enable that part of space to be rewritten. After which, the virus can travel freely within it, not needing the wireless communications of a host robot.

By default, the virus causes robots to either go mad or incite revolution spontaneously, but if Wily chooses, he can manifest within one, or potentially create himself an entirely new body via reality rewriting. He's eventually successful in covering the entire planet with this virus via colony-drop. As long as any of the virus exists, which at that point is borderline written into reality itself, he will continue to survive.

Forgot to mention that said virus-using robot also produces the virus within itself, making it a sentient, walking, fighting phylactery. He's also the single strongest robot to exist for the next 200 years or so, meaning that nobody's stopping it anytime soon.
