Top 5 Villain Games
We are used to the fact that in computer games the main character is a kind person or a creature who does everything to save the world. There are a huge number of such projects. People don’t really like playing villains, but some games allow you to do so. In some projects, the hero is evil from the very beginning, in some games – depending on the choice of the players. Today we will consider such games.
Overlord Series
The first thing that comes to mind when it comes to villains is the Overlord series. Here you play from the very beginning as a real villain, for a lord. Here you have no choice between good and evil, but there is a choice between evil and the greatest evil – it’s up to you to decide.
You play as a dark lord who can conquer the minds of people. You collect an army of henchmen with different abilities. Some are ideal for fighting with weapons and are suitable for plundering cities and villages, the red ones can set fire to enemies and houses, the green ones are poisonous, and the blue ones possess the element of water and can swim.
You have a base that you are constantly improving, taking your slaves there. In addition, you can capture or destroy villages and cities. You can enslave, capture the minds of all the inhabitants of cities, and they will bring you gold, serve you. Or you can just order everyone to kill and burn everything. The choice is yours!
Destroy All Humans
Another cool game, this time the main character of this game, for which we have to play – a small alien. In fact, he looks cute and harmless, but he is not.
This alien has only one goal – to destroy everyone around. You have a huge arsenal of alien weapons for this. In addition, the alien has a number of its own unique abilities, as well as a vehicle – UFO, which is ideal for massive destruction.
A real petty villain!
Hatred
If all the other games above were more entertaining, in a beautiful design, then Hatred is something else. Here you have to play as a serial killer. This maniac has no goals, only one – to kill as many people as possible just like that, purely out of interest.
The game has a rather scary design style – everything is in black and white. The maniac simply takes his standard equipment and goes out into the street – to kill innocent people. You can break into their houses, use various weapons, fight the police. The main goal of the player is to survive as long as possible and kill as many as possible.
Postal Series
Many players over the age of 16 will remember the legendary Postal series (not to be confused with Valve’s Portal). In this game we play as the most strange character whose name is Dude. This is the most inadequate, insane person of all.
Even Dude’s most routine daily routines cost hundreds of innocent lives. He has the strangest arsenal: scissors, a muffler cat, and more, which is better not to write about. It is not difficult for him to just beat people up and leave them to die.
He cannot be called some kind of supervillain, but the fact that he is a deranged psycho who has no place among normal people should not be denied.
GTA 5
And here many will be surprised, because we all love Trevor, Michael and Franklin. However, from the very first minutes of the game, we learn that they are all just bandits, hooligans and murderers, and no matter how charismatic and funny they are, they are real villains.
The most harmless of them is Franklin, who is only trying to survive thanks to the work of a collector and a car thief. He even became his boss’s employee of the month. However, during the game’s storyline, he also becomes a robber and assassin. But these are only flowers compared to the rest.
Trevor is the most dangerous of them all. He’s a psychopath. Many people fell in love with this character, because he is very funny and charismatic, he does things that a normal person would never do. But all the same – he is ready to kill for the smallest errors, he is a serial killer and robber who killed hundreds of people.
And the ugliest of them all is Michael. He betrayed his friends, let him kill one of his friends during the robbery on purpose in order to fake his death, take the money and live peacefully with his family. This whole story begins because of Michael, and at the same time he is still, along with the fact that a traitor, still remains a murderer, robber, hijacker, and just a disgusting person.
