That what my choice for this list as well. What made is more shocking is that some of them you made friends with, (Fire Dragon God) some gave you important items that helped you on your journey (Water Dragon God giving you Ice elemental to free the lava in Mount Pyre) others got you out of jam (Sky Dragon God rescuing you when the Dead sea world started collapsing after you defeated Miguel) and ALL gave you Summons and Dragon Tears. So when the big reveal happened in Disc 2 that they was playing you the whole time, and used you as a pawn so that they can merge and become the Time Devourer, I was flabbergasted! 😱 Great game, btw.

Hmmm... actually i'd say The Watchers who opened the Portal in Drakengard 3 were the real villains. Or at least Nier who doomed Humanity in a seemingly selfish act. Devola and Popola were basically just following their programming and trying to protect what's left of humanity. If Nier hadn't defeated the Shadowlord, Gestalts and Replicants would've been fused back together (with humanity probably still being doomed because Replicants can't reproduce). Personally i don't think that there is a "true" villain in Nier: Replicants became self-aware, they got a consciousness of their own. At least to a certain extend. Now who has the bigger claim? The Gestalts over their Replicant bodies or the Replicants who just want to live (that question still divides players ^^) Devola and Popola were just inbetween all of that but i wouldn't say that they were the villains of the game.

Imagine a game that actually had dynamic story elements that affected the entire game and could play out differently every time you play through it. Like starting a game with several assistants, but one of them is randomly picked to become the main villain by the end of the game, or one of the big bad's key lieutenants defects to help you but it's random which one will do it. It would be like random events in game, but they actually have MAJOR implications and changes to the overall story. With just a few of things like this you could have over 10 different endings easily.

One of my faves, is in the Lord of the Rings Online game: Sarah Oakheart. She's this old women you come across in multiple areas. Each time, she is 'caught up in some trouble' and you need to safely escort her: lead her out out of some prison pen, undead barrows, goblin camp, whatever. And, like all escort quests, the brain-dead NPC rushes around, pulling more mobs on you, getting herself in trouble before you get yourself out of the previous troubles. Fast forward months later, you get called by her to escort her to an area in the heart of the enemies' territory. This time she boldly just strolls through, then announces herself as the new big bad. You've been advancing her goals for ages, and yes, that escort npc literally was trying to get you killed. It was a glorious trolling.

The Watcher from Darksiders 3, who it turns out is actually Envy, the first of the Seven Deadly Sins you thought you killed at the start of the game. Wesker, from Resident Evil. Need I say more? Atlas from Bioshock. Another offscreen guy in the chair type who turns out to be Fontaine, the main villain. Miller from Metal Gear Solid. Pretty sure nobody could call that one.

Plus the bat suit looks really cool! What I really like the most, is how they handled the father/son relationship with Alfred in this game. You can choose to avoid the ridiculous line “you’re not my father blah blah”(i’m looking at you Batman 2022. Hate that line) lol 😂. I’ll admit, I almost tear up a bit when you can tell Alfred “you’re family”.

Plays the commanders of the UED and turns them against eachother while tricking them into almost destroying their best weapon against the Zerg. Turns out to be infested and under Kerrigans control. Helps Kerrigan brutally slaughter all Terran and Protoss opossition that is trying to defend the Galaxy from beeing destroyed by the Zerg. Disappears without any explanation UNLESS you unlock a secret mission which reveals he serves a dead god that wants to destroy the universe. Returns in Starcraft 2 disguised as Dr. Narud. Helps turning Kerrigan back into a human and rescue the galaxy from the Zerg. Turns out he only helped because 1st Kerrigan was the only one who could defeat to the dead god Amon. 2nd he used Kerrigan's psionic powers to revive Amon. Somewhere along the way he tortures one of the UED officers and turns him into a Zerg. And builts an alien hybrid army that can enslave Terran, Zerg and Protoss alike. Basically he always presents himself as an ally at first only to betray whoever falls for it in the most twisted and horrible ways.

The great thing about airy is that she's never portrayed as very nice. She's certainly helpful at times, and certainly one to push you onwards to "help" the crystals and she acts like a proper companion to the party - but she's very insistent on haste, she acts irritated whenever you slow down or go out of your way to help others, she's can sound very cold-hearted at times, and while you think this is all because she just so desperate to fulfil the main mission to "save the world", in reality it's because she's been through this countless goddamn times and just wants this to be over with. I really like that you can see her frustration slowly bubbling beneath the surface of her demeanour throughout the game.

My favorite twist villains were Darth Treya from KOTOR II and Darth Revan from KOTOR. I don't know if anyone would consider her a surprise twist or not but it was still a damn good twist even if you saw it coming. And yeah I know he wasn't an NPC but that was still damn surprising.

Revan is technically not a real Sith or an idealist as they are in modern Star Wars today, Revan was the case that "Fine call me evil if you must I will do as I must to save your arses from the real threat out there. Not Palpatine and his clone, not The Sith Empire and definitely not the other Empire either."

Persona 4's main villain is a random npc employee that works at the gas station in the town. That came as a real shock in the end. It deserves to be on top ten list.

I love Wild Arms it's like every silly thing from JRPGs combined, so it's funny and almost feels like a parody. But it's still a good JRPG with a good story, compelling characters and good twists!

The Cab driver in Vampire Masquerade isn't evil just because the C4, planted by Jack, is in the sarcophagus. The Prince wants the ancient vamp to drain of blood and become stronger, Jack is sitting with the ancient vamp in those lawn chairs chilling when Kaine joins them, because Jack and Kaine were good guys, the Prince isn't

I was waiting for the nerdy bookworm sheep from The Wolf Among US to pop up. She's this weak jumpy sheep that's scared of her own shadow, feeding you information and being Wolf's secretary at times but slowly and subtly becomes more and more detached as the story goes on. It's hard to notice her behavior because she's portrayed as one of the good characters from the get go but then the twist happens and it comes out of nowhere.

Wow. I've watched a lot of vids about Vampire The Masquerade (never played) and this is actually the first time I've ever been spoilered on what is truly in the coffin. Kudos to all those fan bros who made whole long form vids dedicated to it but refused to let the surprise slip. I mean, its old as dirt so I can hardly feel butt hurt about hearing it now.

I started distrusting Airy in Bravely Default when she simply tells us 'well, just go to the crystals again!', even when the rest of the party had no idea what was going on. I did the crystals twice... and on the third run, I decided to see what would happen if I overcharged one of them. And... yeah, my suspicions about Airy being less-than-good were confirmed. (I found it peculiar, though, that it doesn't lead to the 'true ending' if you instigate the fight prematurely... you had to be her 'obedient lackeys' to the end of the countdown on her wings for that. To each their own, I guess.)
