[POLL] WHAT IS THE BEST KIND OF VILLAIN/ANTAGONIST?

Some relevant Extra Credits episodes:
Big Bad I
Big Bad II
Force-of-nature Villains

Neither, I personally prefer villains that are still obviously evil while also being at least a bit sympathetic or understandable. Also not a twist villain, I absolutely abhor those especially when it's handled badly. (see nearly every Disney movie released in the last decade) Villains that are evil just for the sake of it are usually super boring unless their evilness is played and hammed up to the absolute extreme. Judge Frolo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame (A disney movie back from when Disney was actually good) is a perfect example of a "so evil you love to hate" type of villain. His actions are so evil, so over the top, so absolutely revolting and shocking for the medium that it's PURE ESCASY when you see him fail in the most karmic way possible. Still my favorite Disney villain death by far.

But most villains that are evil for the sake of being evil completely fall flat due to not being over-the-top enough, like Garon from Fire Emblem Fates or literally any evil dragon guy from that series really. Then those villains just come across as boring and not interesting in the slightest. Their evil, but not evil enough to be able to supply their character on it's own.

The other type of villain that I like is the sympathetic villain, villains that are evil and do terrible things but have a somewhat valid justifaction for doing what they do. Magneto from X-Men is a perfect example of how to do a sympathetic villain, or someone like Fou-Lu from Breath of Fire IV, Berkut from FE Echoes, Lyon from FE Sacred Stones, and various others.

I would talk about my own villains in my own game, but that would go into spoilers for a game that isn't even out yet. But I will say this, in Chronicles Meteorfall Baron Ozma's backstory and personality has been massively reworked to make him a lot more sympathetic and tragic while still keeping him being blatantly evil.
