Why do people want to play as villains in video games? Is it edgy kids that find this appealing?

Do you mean GTA style antiheroes, or straight-up cartoon villains like your pic, or...?

Krypto isn't a villain, he goes around killing cops.

You soun like a lost parent stranded in some rockband concert

>"OMG what are these kids doing?!"

Just gtfo my board faggot.

Yeah, killing cops and military, the people who keep us safe and defend our freedom of speech shouldnt be "fun".

fuck off

imagine being this much of a bootlicker

>the people who keep us safe
mmm no

It's a subversion to typical escapism. Sometimes fucking shit up as the "bad guy" can be a fun stress reliever in contrast to being the generic hero who saves the world for the bajillionth time.

It's a game. Do you get mad at children on the playground for playing Cops and Robbers?

>games shouldn't be political, says Yea Forums
>any game that includes gameplay elements I don't like is political, also says Yea Forums
Great, so now I can't play GTA because some douchenozzle on Yea Forums thinks pressing a button and watching a 3-Dimensional representation of a person fall down is... actually, I have no idea what you think it is. All I know is that you're a giant fucking faggot. You've gotten your replies. You're still fucking stupid. Get the fuck out.

Villains always try their best and never back down even when outnumbered.

Eartlings are real villains. Around Terrans never relax.

Eat a dick, the small town cops, military, and men in black were corrupt as fuck in the first one. Trt playing it before you shit out your mouth. Besides there is a study that as major games like GTA or anti-hero games such as this come out, crime goes down. I'm sure some autist on here has it.

How goes the boot polishing with your tounge btw? Did it get you a commendation or good goi certificate you had to print yourself?

>Why do people find different perspectives appealing?
>Why would anyone have fun playing with cliche alien stuff?
>Why would anyone want to re-enact the major plotpoints of cheesy 1950's B-Movies?
Because it's fun.

Jaws has always been one of my favorite games. One of those games that didn't need to be made, but damn if I wasn't happy it was.
>Sequel never ever
There's that one game that's being made that's pretty similar, but it'll never have the John Williams soundtrack. Here's hoping that it's good at least.

Any villain, I'm not being specific.

This man is most based.

Fun to experience a different perspective. You usually play as a hero in most games, it's interesting to experience the other side sometimes.

>my girlfriend's husband
I don't get it. Help a brainlet out here please.

The army dude is a cuck apparently.

I don't want to play as a villain most of the time, moreso I don't want to have to be the savior of an already dying or threatened populace. I want there to be something nice and destroy it.

I get the feeling you were that kid in elementary school who would bitch to the teacher because he overheard some kids talking about South Park.

8/10
A lot of people will fall for it.

Placing bets. Do you think they'll censor the rape scenes?

So does THQ own Pandemic titles now or what? DAH was Pandemic I think.

Could we get a remastered Mercenaries?

The Girl he’s seeing is married to an army man which may or may not be the driver of that vehicle

It's just fun to do bad things.

>cops
>military
>the people who keep us safe

lmao no. They don't keep us safe at all.

What rape scenes? I haven’t played it for years but I don’t remember a rape scene at all.

but can you appreciate the cow?

I think he's referring to the "probing" scenes. Nevermind that there's a weapon for on demand anal rape

Greys are the master race. Feeding on human brains is morally no worse than eating meat. If you disagree you are a retard.

Yes and they were thinking about doing so.

>Were
You mean they stopped?

This may be the most naive post of all time

Ah. I was about to say I remember a scene where they abduct a woman and she seems to climax for some reason or other but I forgot about the anal probe. More of a zap-o-matic man.

>we keep you safe, user
>just pay taxes
>you dont want to pay? well thats not possible.

I wish I could attain (you)s like you, amazing play.

you never play as the villain
it all depends of the perspective of the protagonist
so if you play as krypto and people are shooting at you, then people are the villains
simple as that

*If you disagree you're a stupid earth monkey
Fixed that for you, fellow totally normal human.

It's fun to do things you typically wouldn't do or aren't allowed to do in an environment that isn't hurting any real people.

based lad making eurotard lefties seethe

The humans are the villains, you'd know that if you weren't such a fucking zoomer

>all these replies
Well played

Is this actually a good game? For years and years I thought it's some B-class shovelware game because of the dumb name and boxart. Then I started seeing people saying it's a good game but I though it was just ironic shitposting or some meme that I had missed. Then I saw more people saying that it's good and started wondering that these guys might be serious. Is it worth a try?

From my point of view humans are evil

Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced

i dunno, i remember playing it a bit at a friends and it was fine, not spectacular. i mean its got that ps2 era jankiness and empty feeling world but the mechanics are probably quite cool

as a federal employee i must contain my laughter.

I like playing as the villain because red and black are my favorite colors.

It's different. Doesn't take a genius to understand that mixing up incredibly familiar formulas is a breath of fresh air for a lot of people.

Reddit got the memo of a 9 year old joke and one of them started making bumper sticker thingys.

>Crypto isn't a villain, he goes around killing cops.
and defenseless civilians and the conversation he was having with pox about that theme park in the beginning of path of the furon implies they are willing to harvest the brains of children.

Its a good game and the second one is even better. Don't know about the third. That said its pretty damn old and janky for todays standards, so unless you can stomic ps2 games just wait for the remake which if it is a true DaH remake done right will probably be worth it.

This
>be boot
>used to practice killing eachother and not getting killed by eachother like once every 3 months for a week straight.

And it was kinda fun if not tiring.
