Crazy villains who are still loved by fans

first. Superman (Injustice: Gods Among Us)

The fan base of the most popular superhero in the DC universe is already overwhelming in the world, so it’s not surprising that he is at the top of this list. Of course, in Injustice: Gods Among Us, Superman acts as the main villain, but the reason for him to be like that is worth the player’s sympathy.
​

Injustice: Gods Among Us begins with Lois Lane pregnant with the child of the Man of Steel, but is brutally killed by Joker. In his grief, Superman realizes that only harsh punishment is the way to end crime forever. Since then, he broke his own “don’t kill” precept and used super strength to destroy the villains. Adhering to the old rules that contradict this decision of Superman, Batman and his former comrades stood up against him.​

2. Lich King (World of Warcraft/Warcraft 3)

World of Warcraft is still one of the most played MMORPG titles in the world. Therefore, the number of gamers known Arthas Menethil – The Lich King is enormous. And, among them, the number of people who sympathize with Arthas is certainly more than those who hate him.​

Arthas was once a brave prince willing to sacrifice himself to serve the interests of the kingdom as well as the people. Not only strong and solid, he is also a person who can withstand pressure and can make wise decisions in difficult moments. At the last minute, despite being brainwashed by Frostmourne and becoming the next Lich King, Arthas still played an important role in maintaining order in the world while limiting the spread of Scourge. Arthas’ life has committed many crimes, but for most gamers, the Lich King is still more pitiful than to blame.​

3. Sephiroth (Final Fantasy VII)

There is one thing in common between Sephiroth, Superman and Arthas, that all 3 were once beloved heroes before turning evil. Once revered as the strongest warrior in the world, Sephiroth himself is open-minded, sociable, and respectful of others. However, once again, events occurred, causing Sephiroth to become cold, ruthless, and believe that he was the savior of the planet with the responsibility to destroy humanity.​

​

Sephiroth is loved by gamers because of his impressive appearance and cool demeanor. His white hair and long-bladed katana became an infallible mark of his identity. The scene where Sephiroth kills Aeris, one of the two most popular female characters in the game, has become a once-in-a-lifetime episode that few people play through. FF7 can be forgotten

4. Joker (Batman Arkham series)

​

Not as handsome as Sephiroth, not as powerful as Superman, and without a pitiful past like Arthas, Joker is loved for a very puzzling reason: he’s crazy. That’s right, because he’s crazy and crazy in a “cool” way, Joker is always present in every ranking villain. Of course, the coolest Joker is still the Joker on the big screen with the genius acting of Heath Ledger.​

5. GLaDOS (Portal 1&2)

An artificial intelligence with terrifying intelligence and a deep hatred for humanity is a type of villain that has appeared in many movies and video games, but none of them are enough… as cute as GLaDOS to get so much love from players.​

​

Yes, GLaDOS is an AI, but it’s an AI with an outstanding sense of humor, sarcastic jokes that drive gamers crazy, and a voiceover that couldn’t be more “sexy”. Not only that, GLaDOS even has its own song called “Still Alive”, which will be sung at the end of the game when the main character seems to have defeated “it”. The love of gamers makes GLaDOS constantly appear in other games of Valvewhich is typically Dota 2.​
