Well, you posted my first pick so here's my second.
Not a complex character by any means, just a completely irredeemable asshole you love to hate.

9S was only an antagonist for around 10% of the game, though. He technically counts, but doesn't really fit the spirit of things.

Wheately was pretty good too.

I always feel like there's two types of xenofags:
1. Old guard fat bearded onionsboy fucks who've played every old game and have been screaming to the skies "Soulless" now that its gotten attention
2. skinny dudes who've only played the blade games because they saw Shulk in smash. Whether or not they liked it was irrelevant.

absolutely retarded motivation

>antagonist
>only does bad shit after getting infected

This applies to most fandoms, so I don't see what you're getting at

Xenogears is söy repellent, mate.

The way his development and motivations parallel that of Pyra and Mythra was what made ultimately him great to me.
Plenty of people got into Blade games because of the Project Rainfall stuff.

As far as XC1 antagonists go
>Egil > Metal Face > Dickson > Zanza
Even though Dickson's motives were quite truthfully retarded, and he wasn't fleshed out properly at all.

Metal Face's motivations are stupid on purpose, because he's meant to be a pathetic, petty coward of a man who lucked in to an opportunity to get back at someone he envied. He's meant to come across as a fool.
Dickson, on the other hand, is someone who's supposed to be fairly intelligent and savvy. So the entirety of his motivation ending up being that he...likes to fight is fairly lame.

Carried the entire game
If only we could side with him

Hey I was basically in the middle of typing this, good job. The "Why? Because it's your home." line in response to why he attacked Colony 9 (and seemed to enjoy killing Fiora specifically) really got me.

Dickson also just wanted to live through Zanza's extinction events and the only way to do that was to be his little helper.

The soundtrack? Nia? The link to XC1? Lora?

He's one of the only villains I've seen understand that a guy who talks about how terrible the world and humanity only works when he hates himself as well

Some fags still hate Nia, as disgusting as that is

Metal Face gets points for being entertaining and hateable.
Egil and Zanza are written to be sympathetic right after you beat them and I find that kind of pussyfooting to be cowardly

Yeah, he’s fucking fantastic in nearly every regard
He’s also got one of the best Nomura designs and one of the best models based on a Nomura design

Hojo

I'm so happy XB2 fixed Zanza

Morag was vastly superior.

My headcanon is Morag is bonded to Wulfric, Sever, and Brighid.

Find a flaw.

Malos wasn't really great, wasn't even the bad guy. He was just an extension of Amalthus.

Morag has the best design in the party but that doesn’t make a good character. She is fucking hot though. Also, you forgot Aegaeon lmao

Xeno series died when Takahashi sold out to Nintendo. Now all further xenoblade games will have a ingame gacha mechanic to progress in the game.
Nintendo might even add more dlc transactions like they did for XB2 so you can farm blades.

>Casually kills the god
Pretty fucking based.

And yet, the Xeno series has never been more alive than it is now.

Please don’t respond to obvious bait unless you want this thread to turn into hollow bickering.

>you forgot Aegaeon lmao
No I didn't. I didn't give a flying fuck about Aegaeon, the katana was boring as hell for me. Meanwhile Morag with spear is the most fun thing in the game. And she's a fine character, I enjoyed her far more than Nia and not only because of her appearance.

I need Morag + Zeke adventures, that'd be fun.

She gets less development or fleshed out characterisation than any party member

What is this ranking based on?

Enjoy having gacha in all your xeno games nigger. I hope you choke on it when you have to open hundreds to cores to get blades in XB3.
It was the dumbest thing to add to a game thatis a SINGLE PLAYER jrpg.
But I know your kind, you eat the shit that they design for you without raising a fuss, always content on your wasting time on a shit game.

Character + design
If we were to include development I'd probably have to shift Rex over Beefdaddy and maybe Morag.

Development can only move Rex down though

Kay, you have fun coping.

Him and most of the MGRR cast are god tier, way better than Skull Face.

Your the one coping and defending gacha in a single player game nigger. Irony at its finest, keep taking the gacha dick.

i came to see this and was not disappointed.

This little tantrum of yours only works if the gacha is monetized, so what are you even crying about?

lordy lordy kill yourself you cuck. You are just spouting horse shit because you are butt blasted over a game. Get over yourself. Plus the core system is actually quite ingenous frankly. Guarantees you get a different team composition every time you play the game forcing you to admit, make new strategies, and maximize the combat till you get all the blades.

Only issue is grinding kos-mos plus the last one or two other blades. Which is fixable by buffing drop values/making rares guaranteed after...idk 20-30 cores.

Unless you are a time traveler with proof xbc3 has gacha, stfhu twat.

ok malos aint good, but fuck no zanza was not better, zanza like actually detracted from the game due to his inactivity and lack of any interesting motivation, at least malos had a douchebag personality and a decent relationship with jin.

because part of this board's demographic is the people that watched toonami as a kid and believe they're an authority on all things anime. XBC2 is inspired by a bunch of anime they will never watch and is unapologetic about it, which scares and confuses these people.

>meme spouting tyrant

>Was this shit was written by a 15 year old or something?
The writer had the mentality of a 15 year old. It's the main reason why I am avoiding BL3

Ok, point one out then. If there are several, then it shouldn't be hard.

He waited and gave everyone a chance and literally all of humanity had fucked up and died by the point he put his plan into action. There was nothing wrong about trying to get something for himself at that point. In fact in terms of results his actions prolonged humanity's survival by three hundred years. By any metric, he did nothing wrong.

Nia's welsh and Malos are the only reasons I play the english version. Don't care how bad the rest s. Can't stand not having them

Still fucking mad almost 20 years later.

Compare any scene side by side and tell me the voice actors are as talented. The English voices sound bored or uninspired in most of the dialogue. Definitely not the worst I've heard, but half the time I can't convince myself I'm not just listening to someone read out a script with little to no emotion. Also doesn't help that they just used the English script as the "subtitles" for the Japanese voices.
