Louis is a far better written villain than Sephiroth could ever be because he actually has a motivation and something resembling a personality. OG Sephiroth was never anything more than "hot and mysterious + big katana," and remake Sephiroth is just another evil for the sake of being evil force of nature villain.
Dunno who Louis, but pic related is good and well written villain
>>748373083This isn't even a question: Sephiroth character has a profundity of a puddle.
>>748373083>>748373310You've never played FFVII. Sephiroth's personality and motivation are both that he's a narcissist who's been treated like royalty his whole life. When he finds out he's just a test tube alien monster baby he copes himself into deciding he actually owns the whole planet and is going to eat the entire Lifestream, thus literally becoming the new embodiment of the planet.
>shit is better than pissTell me more, OP
>>748373491>JRPG antagonist with messianic personality number 3028392>but le experiment made him madFucking shitty writing.
>>748373759>JRPG antagonist with messianic personality number 3028392>but le experiment made him madNeither of those describe Sephiroth. You can't even read a single post on 4chan so it's little wonder you can't understand FFVII. Maybe they should have had the characters spend every single cutscene explaining simple concepts over and over again to you like Persona 5.
>>748373083I don't think comparing them is gaining anything of value. At the end of day; Sephiroth is memorable, well-liked, and is taken seriously as a threat and even accomplishes some things in the way of foiling the hero's party. Just those things are enough to qualify him as a good villain
>>748373083Sephiroth had a personality. I never played the remakes, but he had a very defined personality in JP. As par for the course, those earlier FF games were absolutely butchered by english translators.
>>748374992But she's such a doll!
>>748375081I wonder if someone will ever do a retranslation patch for ff9, sounds like a shitload of stuff was lost in translation.
>>748375081The the doll line ruins it. But the left isn't much better either besides the final part that explains he thought both were alike
>>748375646The left reflects Zidane's nature as a thespian, and also ties into his later story about how he left Tantalus to go find his home only to eventually realize that Tantalus was his home. He was busy looking at the horizon and didn't see what he already had.
>metaphor gets a lot of seething for no reason.>post more metaphor threads.This is hilarious.Total Atlus victory.By the way you guys should play Raidou. It's action rpg SMT.
>>748373083I like Louis a lot. But you're a retard. A villain is a vehicle for the story. The story calls for a suitable villain, not the other way around. Sephiroth is a nothing character but he's the perfect villain for FF7's story. He's in fact a better villain for his story than Louis is for Metaphor. So no.
>>748376109>A villain is a vehicle for the storyAnd that's exactly what Louis existence does + he actually has a compelling personality fitting the narrative.
>>748373083Counterpoint: I don't even know who Louis is.Also, Sephiroth is Char Aznable, and that makes him kino, you are just too uncultured to know.
