There was some demand from the Worst main character thread for a villain thread. So I'm curious to see who is BG's most hated villains.
I'm keeping it for the main villains only. If I started adding in other villains there would be too many.
I know some main villains are iffy but here is my reasoning for why I gave it to Kuja for FF9 but not to Golbez in FF4, because both were the main villain of their respective games up until the very end. The only difference is that Golbez was being controlled the whole time and was shocked by his own actions when he was freed. Whereas Kuja was the villain acting of his own will the entire time, he simply was pushed back at the end and replaced for the final boss by something that he unleashed.
As for my vote, it goes to Barthandalus simply because I hated his fucking pope like character design.
