7 Heroes Who Lived Long Enough to Become the Villain

  • They say you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain. The second option is popular with game protagonists, judging by how we're always battling our former heroes in subsequent games we played as in previous games. Enjoy these ultimate betrayals and subscribe for a video like this every Thursday, why not?
    Take Dead Rising 2 follow-up Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, for instance, which reworks Dead Rising 2 with Frank West of Dead Rising 1 fame as the hero instead of motocross champ Chuck Greene.
    Dead Rising 2: Off the Record envisages how Chuck would deal with the Dead Rising 2 game over you got if you failed to get Katey her anti-zombifyng meds in time. Spoiler alert: the answer is “not well”.
    Chuck is now a wild-eyed maniac in desperate need of both a haircut and to stop carrying around a creepy doll version of his dead daughter, and not in that order.
    Naturally, you end up having to battle fallen protagonist Chuck - no small ask, since he’s equipped with his trademark slicycle, a motocross bike with twin chainsaws protruding from the handlebars that's much less fun when you're not the one in the driving seat.

      @marhawkman303 5 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      And there is NO redemption arc. The hero/es in D2 figure out pretty early on that the only way to do anything even remotely like saving him is to force Diablo out by hacking his body to pieces. So you LITERALLY walk into the most heavily defended citadel in HELL, annihilate an ARMY of Diablo's followers, then beat Diablo to death. "yay my soul is free now!" or something like that, yeah, have a nice afterlife, because that's all you get.

      Summoner is a PITA. mainly because you have to fight him on narrow walkways and he uses AoE magic. He's not the main boss, in act 2, but he's the second hardest.

      The town that you spent the whole of the first Diablo game defending from the forces of evil turns out to be the 3rd or 4th area you reach in Diablo II, except now it's full of the undead you you have to kill several of the named former townspeople who are now zombies. Good thing you spent all that time in the first game defending them!
      Not to mention that in Diablo 3, Diablo turns out to be possessing the daughter of that same character, and the person you have been escorting for the first 3/4 of the game!
      The Diablo series is mostly about screwing over the previous player character each subsequant game!

      Machine > Marauder > Vendetta > post-update Ringwraith > Terror > Mystic*
      *the Mystic Dagger is God tier OP, and should be equipped most if not all the time.
      Machine is a bit tricky to use, what with the constant secondary and tertiary explosions knocking Talion off the Captain he's about to do a Ground Finisher/Fury on, but once you get the hang of it and level all but the Dagger (whose function is kinda useless and completely inferior to the aforementioned Mystic), it is the Destroyer Of Worlds.
      Marauder is extremely fun to play, as most Berserker-type things are. It requires the automatically-grab-loot skill to fully experience and empower, but once you get it and start racking up kills, there are few things capable of stopping or even slowing you. Once, I killed an Online Vendetta target with it using just 2 hits and an Execution. On a target that was "Immune To Execution." Let that sink in for a bit.
      Vendetta is a really good set to use when you don't have any other Legendaries yet, or haven't been able to level them. Even though levelling Vendetta can be a bit glitchy at times.
      Before the update, the Ringwraith set was kinda fun to use, albeit with a useless Armor effect of increasing defense against Undead. After the update that gave us new armor and cloaks, it really became a viable and useful option.
      Terror.....well, I don't use Terror much, but it's kinda fun.
      Mystic? Pfffff. All you need from here is the Dagger, mate. Grab that and just move on.
      Also, an amendment to what CapColdblood said:
      Always kill Legendary Orcs, unless you've already got the weapon they drop. In which case, you Recruit them. And probably promote them to Bodyguard, Warchief, or even Overlord.

      wozzen I agree that Alex, to begin with, was an asshole before getting infected but when the virus took his identity, he was slowly learning to be a hero (saving his sister, saving a couple of agents who were actually trying to help the military kill him in the comics, and fighting Elizabeth and the supreme hunter's efforts to spread the virus).
      In the comics, he struck out on his own for a while to see what it was like to be human but people kept on screwing him over until he just flat out decided that humanity should be wiped out and that a new species should be the dominant one instead.

      ....When did I say anything to the contrary? Mercer was never a hero, he only tanked the nuke for two reasons. One he knew from the supreme hunter he would survive. Words from the supreme hunter's mouth "After I consume you even the nuke won't be able to stop me" So mercer never really had to fear for his life from the nuke. Second Dana was in the city it wasn't about the civilians.
      Final note his melancholy is far more focused on his realization he was never human, that he was the Blacklight virus. He never felt bad for the hundreds to thousands he killed. It was definitely out of character for him to become a megalomaniac villain but only because it is far more likely he'd just lose interest in humanity after its constant disappointment.

      No one said Adewale or Achilles were evil - objectively, they AREN'T. They're making a pretty horrible decision despite the earthquakes, which from Shay's point of view, makes them antagonists. That was the whole point of the game - to turn everything you know previously on its head and make you see things from the Templar point of view. That's why enemies stalk you/try to air assassinate you ffs. You know how it feels to be a Templar. Does that mean I think you should sympathize with the Templars? No. But for that game, Adewale IS an antagonist.
