Writing one villain is hard. But SEVEN villains? That’s like… twice as hard. So why go through the effort of creating a whole cast of villains for a game? Well, they can unlock group dynamics that you won’t get any other way. You just get a level of complexity that you can’t get from Johnny SingleBad. Let’s talk about how to build a bad team.
Featuring:
Mega Man
Persona 4
Metal Gear Solid 1, 3, and 4
Star Fox 64 AND Star Fox Adventures
Yakuza Zero
No More Heroes
Sonic Forces
Kingdom Hearts, mostly in B-roll though
Freedom Planet 2, in more B-roll. Go play Freedom Planet 2.
Patrons get ad-free episodes early, plus access to our behind-the-scenes podcast.
