Another antagonist, Bill Williamson starts out as a loyal and respected member of the Van Der Linde gang, trusting Dutch entirely. However, he soon becomes embittered, vicious, and cowardly, and eventually leaves the gang to become a feared criminal with his own
Mass Effect gave to gamers one of the wildest fights for survival seen thus far in the form of the war against robotic behemoths named The Reapers. Beyond the Reapers, though, was The Illusive Man. Almost a Keyser Soze like figure, The Illusive Man heads the renegade group Cerberus, who the game's protagonist, Commander Shephard, is actively fighting against most of the game. What really sets The Illusive Man apart, though, is what he does when he finds a beaten and battered Commander Shephard in space. He revives him and sets him free again. As interesting as he is puzzling, The Illusive Man lives up to his n
Arthur and John's relationship is the heart of Red Dead Redemption 2 . Yes, the story is primarily about Arthur's redemption, but it is through their relationship that we see the redemption taking place. And just as Arthur changes throughout the story, so too does John. Both start the story as immoral and violent men, and both end in better places having gone through their respective redemptive arcs. One could certainly argue that the "redemption" of Red Dead Redemption 2 is about both John and Arthur. Yes, John had his redemption in the first game as well, but hey, no one said that life is one straight p
Perhaps most important of all, Arthur convinced John to run. While John also saw Dutch's increased immorality and corruption, it was Arthur who finally convinced him to take his family and leave the gang behind. This conversation comes while the two are planting dynamite on Bacchus Bridge, knowing full well that this is the last time the gang works together. As Arthur tells John, "This is over." Maybe John was always a devoted family man - he just needed a little push to break away from the alluring hold of the g
The ultimate con-man. Throughout the first Bioshock game, the player’s only friend in the downtrodden utopia is a stranger named Atlas. Claiming to be the only one in the underwater city that can help the player, Atlas repeatedly gives what seems like advice on how to escape Rapture, but in reality, are just mind control commands. It turns out Atlas is none other than Frank Fontaine, a power-hungry smuggler reportedly shot and killed in a shootout years prior. As it turns out, Frank Fontaine isn’t even his real name, it’s Frank Gorland. He stole the name Frank Fontaine to gain access to Rapture and cons the player into doing his dirty work which then results in the murder of Andrew Ryan, the creator of Rapture. The player, Jack, turns out to be Andrew Ryan’s genetically-altered son who was brainwashed and grown to become Frank’s personal hitman, so long as Fontaine, or Atlas, used the phrase "Would you Kindly". One of the most breathtaking twists in gaming history results in Andrew Ryan’s own son being used against him by the monstrous, multi-named conman Frank Fonta
Arthur Morgan is the main character in Red Dead Redemption 2 and players follow his path through the later years of his life. They watch as he makes decisions and helps those around him on side missions. He is a gunslinger who cares for children and has his own love inter
Tragically, the big spoiler isn’t that he has TB, but that he’s had TB since the start of Chapter 2. For the majority of the game, Arthur has had a symptomless disease waiting to eat away at him and it isn’t until he leaves Guarma that his constant coughing turns into something much wo
Far Cry 3 introduced the Open world games walkthrough to one of the best villain performances ever. Insanity has never looked so good. Michael Mondo, the actor who portrayed Vaas, deserves an Oscar for the way he would change tones and start contradicting himself resulting in violent raging outbursts. This made his character feel so lifelike and real, and it made encounters extremely exciting. He really does appear to be a true Hollywood villain from a nightmare vacation to hell. Vaas Montenegro did not care for any living person, his life, or anything. It seems the only thing that mattered to him was pirate life and messing with other’s minds. The man is nothing but insane, and he prides himself on it. He will ask the definition of insanity, as if he’s not insane, all while sinking a man to the bottom of the sea with a cinder block tied to his f
Abigail Roberts is the wife of John Marston. After the disappearance of John, Abigail begged Arthur to head out into the snowstorm to go find him. She was once an outlaw but decides to adopt a more peaceful lifestyle later in the story. She used to be a prostitute and had sex with numerous members of the Van der Linde g
Often times the power to influence and manipulate is stronger than any gun, sword, or army. Red Dead Redemption 2 ’s Dutch Van Der Linde had the unbelievably powerful ability to trick and deceive, all while masquerading as a caring, compassionate man. To start off, he essentially preyed upon two outcast teenagers, John Marston, and Arthur Morgan, so he could raise them as his unquestioning supporters. He takes advantage of people’s bad fortune to gain their trust and essentially turn them into his mindless followers, and his power of speech is so unmatched he can talk men and women into doing terrible deeds and actually convince them they were doing good. As his true colors finally come to light, Dutch exposes himself as a murderous, money loving, selfish sociopath. In a way, Dutch talked himself into not only fame and fortune, but an early gr
