I think some of his violence is narratively forgivable. He was defending himself in TF1 and fighting Megatron. In the TF2 forest fight he was outnumbered and the guy whose face he took off was twice his size, and the fallen was known for coming back so he had to be thorough by destroying the spark. By number three he was sick of Decepticons and it could be argued that he was executing Sentinel and Megatron for War Crimes. By number four he lost his friends to demented science experiments and was left with three toddlers and Hound. By number five he had been mind controlled and just woke up to *another* MacGuffin battle. He needs a damn nap.

[@OGrupxe]

It's not that he isn't wise, in my interpretation, he is just heavily traumatized with the war, and that just slowly converted him into a war machine that wants to make his enemies suffer the way his allies did when they died (Ironhide comes to mind) This can be seen when he swiftly lands a killing blow on Bonecrusher before he can agonize too much about the loss of his arm in the first movie, to outright beating Shockwave to death with his bare hands on the third.

I finally realize why I loved Optimus. None of that 'Spare thy enemy' nonsense. Your enemies can't hurt anyone if they're dead.

[@sneakygamer627]

And to think that everything he did was for human race makes me respect Optimus more then ever.

[@Milkra]

Megatron: Optimus I am tired of the fighting please let’s stop this Optimus: rip and tear, until it is done

[@YikesIsMe]

I always thought of the Bayverse Tranformers like biblical angels, they are thought of as these benevolent protectors who would never cause harm when in reality they're meant to be brutal warriors.

[@localdude2979]

Bay nailed it on Optimus being that modern badass who is tired of the cliche no murder allowed hero BS, to this day this is honestly my personal fave best Optimus PRIME.

[@akaimomiji7]

"GIVE ME YOUR FACE" is the scariest thing Prime ever said while tearing the Fallen apart

[@reedude4232]

everyone: "omg bayverse optimus is so murderous! even the decepticons are begging him!" also the decepticons: *trying to destroy humanity and take over the world*

Honestly, I like bayverse Optimus. He's an ass kicking badass and also an inspirational MFER

[@Chef.Sinatra]

Am only the one who likes bayverse Optimus? I mean he's so badass and not give a shi about the enemy

[@Metal-Sonic]

I am so amazed at every other version of optimus prime to not be extremely pissed after fighting a war for MILLIONS OF YEARS, no wonder he is pissed off and wants to stop it, dude literally watched his planet die of war and still the war continues millions of years after the war started.

[@thebatmanwholaughs219]

This is why Optimus is the best leader. He's not some boy scout like Captain America and Superman. He doesn't have a "no kill" rule like Batman. Dude does the right thing and doesn't let anything get in his way.

[@Kratos_Messi7050]

Optimus went from humble and wise into a war criminal 💀

[@knightstrike7865]

I find this delightful Me without coffee and optimism is not himself when he's hungry, try a snickers. 😂

[@Bobo-wp2bw]

It’s the way he never tries to reason with them. He goes for the kill every _single_ time. This guy is bloodthirsty.

[@Mr.Feather130]

Deceptions: *exist* Optimus Prime:anyway i am going sicko mode

Lol I like how everyone wants optimus to be some softie and gentle taps the bad guys

[@maffiola]

Imagine losing to your life long enemy after getting jumped, coming back to life and having your main life force being stolen, and watching the planet you tried to protect so many times start to get destroyed by a former gos from your planet. Your mentor returns, betrays you, and kills one of your best friends. Tbf id go apeshit and psychopathic too if i had to deal with this shit for any longer

[@Prideofvidalia]

love how yall call him a psychopath but realize he’s killing for reasons

[@qwerty975]

Transformers fans are corny af. Never watched any documentaries or real war footage. If you don't take your enemies fast they will come after your guys

[@vmaninc.761]

Optimus Prime's final battles are pure examples of how a superhero can be ruthless, show no mercy, take life and yet still be heroic; his brutal methods in taking down Megatron, Sentinel Prime, The Fallen and lockdown should be the golden standard that all superhero characters follow, if Batman, Superman, Spider-Man and others like them just put down their threats the way Optimus Prime has they wouldn't be dealing with that much severe consequences from the devastating aftermath of their villains!

[@megakirbo4250]

That's exactly why people love heroes like Batman and Spiderman, they don't kill their villians. They both see the good in them, and Batman has changed some of his criminals and villains lives in a good way

[@vmaninc.761]

@megakirbo4250 Clayface, Harley quinn, Norman Osborne and I think killer croc are rare exceptions to the rules; They're not the ones I'm referring to, it's joker, bane, carnage and others like them that should be put down in a lethal matter!🔥💯😁👍

[@Skyler3253]

Considering what happened in TF4, I'll be like that as well, I've saved their asses and they want me dead? Fine, I'll play by their game and rules and if they told me I went to far, I'll tell them they begged and I listened.

[@mandaloretheultimate5832]

Bro, Prime always go's straight for the head. He's not even trying to take them alive.

[@drxtale9446]

That’s why I call this prime, War crime Prime.

[@orhandalegend]

killing planetary terrorists who willingly kill innocents and endanger an entire solarsystem is a war crime? he should be rewarded for those actions

[@drxtale9446]

@@orhandalegend true to that aswell. Still saves the day

[@Warlord_Megatron]

Lame ass prime is better. Nowhere close to even the idea of a prime. Prime isn't a ruthless Soldier. Prime is a composed protector and mentor.

[@orhandalegend]

@@Warlord_Megatron ah yes the same "mentor" that ran over 3 decepticons in top speed and then shot the wounded to death, beat megatron until he couldnt even move. very "composed" indeed

[@Warlord_Megatron]

@@orhandalegend The fact that optimus could never get himself to kill megs proves his composed nature. And do you remember when ratchet was torturing a vehicon cuz he was on synthen and OPTIMUS scolded him for inflicting unnecessary harm? Do you remember when optimus consoled bee that he is not useless and assured him that they will soon find his tcog? Don't you remember when he got arcee's back when they were unable to reach base due to those metal eater bugs? Don't you remember the time when he reprimanded wheeljack for endangering his team? Yes he did beat up Megatron many times but always gave him the chance to change and never killed him. And if I recall correctly, the 3 cons you're talking about are none other than drones?

[@tubaraofluente]

the immediate transition from the goofy chill music right into the screams of the damned

[@mitchellenderson7194]

The weird thing is, I always thought that the “who would you be without me” scene started with Megatron shooting first and wrote it off as them both understanding what was about to happen. I just today realized that Megatron only brought his gun up when Prime went for the axe, and barely even fired, considering there isn’t even a sound accompanying the shot.

[@Nolziv01]

Optimus' favourite half sentence: Give me your HEAD.

[@diversesoulsyt4014]

[@HarryK-ld2ed]

I don't care if Bayverse Optimus is beyond ruthless for his character, he's still the most entertaining to me. After all that he went through and all that he lost, anyone would be ruthless against the ones responsible for it. He was still kind and sensible with the humans. Not to mention, he's supposed to be a soldier in Bayverse, not a hero. Soldiers kill, aggressively. Bayverse Optimus had the most interesting characterisation, the best fights, the most badass one liners and the most badass scenes.

[@blazingdance3612]

Absolutely!

Theres only one thing scarier than rampaging decepticons: a slightly pissed off optimus prime
