I loved FF7 and FF8, but Kefka, unlike temper tantrum Sephiroth, was the equivalent of Batman's Joker becoming a God, sadistic freak who can make almost anything he wishes happen to the whole planet at will, could make a terrasque piss himself on the spot, and could burn whole cities with a laser called the light of judgement.

>>3894482... ok?
>>3894482He's a Saturday Morning cartoon villain: No depth to his character other than some throwaway lore text from 1 NPC, just pure evil.
>>3894546He's damaged.
there's worse written badguys in the franchise like this fuck that SE had no idea what they were doing
>>3894546Pretty much, but he's a good Saturday Morning cartoon villain. That laugh alone does a lot of work.
>>3894482>was the equivalent of Batman's Joker becoming a God,Oh, Joker was a way more effective god than Kefka ever was. All that clown ever did was burn and destroy, reduce everything down to flaming smolders without so much as a knock knock and I have to ask "where's the fun in that?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gu5QmhnRo94
>>3894546That's a completely fine way to handle a villain and if anything that should be the default antagonist
>>3894825>I did what the gods wanted me to do and they shunned me anyway>I'll get pissed at my brother over this and hatch a thousand year long plan to end my own family line instead of directing any anger at the gods for being asshats
