Ultimecia. Sephy a close second.
Ultimecia. Sephy a close second.
Str8 Pimpin'
I'm going to be all predictable and fan boyish and say Sephiroth. Plus he rocks out to sweet tunes.
Kefka is probably the only villain in FF to ever achieve their goals (he became a god) and the party couldn't stop him. (Though they did defeat him in the end from destroying the world.) Quite possibly the #1 villain of FF.
If Kefka isn't the best then it's most likely Kuja. Kuja had also accomplished his goal of killing Garland and achieving Trance. He had many qualities like Kefka that make him a great villain as well.
I expected Sephy to have a lot of popularity. He is a great villain, but the fact that he looks cool and totally beats Kefka the clown and Kuja the cross-dresser by looks is probably what many people like him for, not his villainy.
But I seriously never thought Ultimecia would actually do this well. After all, you never even got to see her directly until the end of the game.
Honestly, me and Boco both think Ultimecia just plain sucks in almost every way. :rolleyes2
But hey, that's just us.
First, the most successful villain in FF is not Kefka, is Delita.
Second, you "see" Ultimecia some times before the end. In the first half of the game, every time that you see Edea, you are in truth, seeing Ultimecia. In the 3rd disc you can see her, when Squall's mind go back in time(she even look at him and said "You don't belong to this time. Get out!"). And she is very manipulative too.
Kefka, hands down. He actually succeeds at his goal of blighting the face of the planet and becoming a god. None of the other villains come even close. Plus, he doubles as comic relief. What's not to love?
That said, insert the obligatory disclaimer that I haven't played FFI-III, FFT, FFVIII, or FFXII.
I'd also consider the primary antagonists of FFVII to be Jenova and Hojo, not Sephiroth. Yes, I know what the Ultimania guide says, but honestly, smurf all this moneygrubbing sequel crap Square is releasing these days![]()
Let me rephrase that then. Kekfa is probably the most accomplished MAIN villain. Delita isn\\\'t even up there in the poll though and isn\\\'t a main FF villain. I actually don\'t know who Delita is, and I\\\'m guessing he/she is from FFIII, FFXI, or FFXII, since I have not completed those games yet. And I never said Ultimecia wasn\\t good in any way. She did have the power of time compression and the ability to possess sorceresses.
I go with Kuja.
Too bad, I wanted to vote Kefka purely for his evil laugh, but I haven't got the hang of the game's story.
Delita is a character from Final Fantasy Tactics. I have not completed the game, but I would exactly label Delita as a villian.
(SPOILER)From what I have read about his character and the story of Final Fantasy Tactics, Delita only used people as a means to an end for peace. Didn't he think that the only way it would all end is if he became king?
yeah, the fact that Delita was listed as a villain is a pretty big spoiler, really, but from what I understand, the mods here don't give a smurf![]()
"Spoilers" for games that have been out for three years or longer are fair game.
And yeah, Delita isn't exactly a villain anyway.
despite the fact that some people might not have had access to a game console for longer than three years. *cough*
also, lol at the fact that somebody editedinto my previous post, and in fact to all of my posts in this threadPeace
The Man
It was close, but Kuja won out over Kefka.
They are both far superior to Sephiroth in the Following Catagories
1) Motives
A) Sephiroth: He was manipulated by Jenova any way, but for you people who believe he wasn't lets just pretend that it was all him anyway. He wanted to use the planet as a form of space travel to devour other world for no reason other than he was an ass.
B) Kefka: Quite possibley the most evil and insane person ever in a video game. He is a man who one day snapped due to the empires Magiteck experiments. He worked his way up the empire to obtain the powers of teh Magic Gods themselves so that he could inevetably end existance, which with the rational of his highly untable mind determined was pointless, and to end the suffering was a noble aspiration he wished ot achieve, or something to that effect.
C) Kuja: He seeked to no longre be Garlands lap dog. He wanted to prove himself greater than his the one sent down instead of him. Seekign to become stronger than Garland, he manipulated the entirety of the planet, gaining the power of the eidions, all the while discovering something even Greater, Trance. With this power he eradicated his creator and his world. In the end he even tries to destroy everything when faced with his own mortality.
2) PErsonality
a) Sephiroth: He has no personality. He doesn't manipulate, he doesn't do anything behind the scenes, and he likes making cloud feel sad, basicly he's a school bully he gets his kicks picking on people. This leads me to believe one thing, people who like sephiroth probably got off whenever the school bully gave them a wedgie.
b) Kefka: Crazy to the bone. He has an ego inflated like no other, and expects all of his unruly demands to be met. Quite twisted and coniving as well.
c) Kuja: Twisted, Egotistical, Caniving. He is probably the most intelegent of all the FF Villians, as no one has ever worked behind the seens as well as him. He had manipulated an entire planet for christ sakes. Also, the thing I like is the very human trait they gave him, the fear of death mixed with extreme power.
3) Style
A)Sephiroth: I can't say anything bad as he does look cool with his hair and sword, but nothing unique or Original.
B) Kefka: This is the only person who could pull off a Crazy Clown look and still be the MAin Villian. And no one will ever pull it off quite so well.
C) He does not look Gay or like a Girl. Very Feminine yes, but by not a girl. His outfit rocks, or at least what little of one he has. Also his Trance form is by far superior to Sephiroth. He truly looks like a villian.
