you know what's a really good trope? "the power of friendship" but they're all VILLAINS. just a bunch of sexy, unhinged, & morally bankrupt characters who would do anything for each other. absolutely unparalleled

Huh, I just realized why I like the Fast and Furious franchise so much

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago

Kinda like It's Always Sunny, but better

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

Season 3 of Legend of Korra does this pretty well, though the villains are also united by an ideology that drives them to act.

Exactly my thought. If you don't have a session once a month where you look around and ask "are we the baddies?" then what the heck are we doing here.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

You have sessions more than once a month?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Lol, we try for every other week, about 2.5-3 hour sessions.

I feel like the animated movie 'Bad Guys' kind of encomappses this. They're a 'ride or die' crew that is bad, at least at the beginning. It's a good movie I recommend a watch.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

"What? I wanted a longer car chase, its the best part."

Seriously that link is the first 6 minutes of the movie and if that doesnt absolutely hook you into watching it, its not for you.

Also my 5yo daughter makes me put on that song and do the sunglasses thing, shit is so adorable.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Honestly the car sold me like 50 percent on that movie, haha. It's such a short bit of the movie but it's just fun and the car is obviously badass.

The villains code as well. Worms better though

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

It breaks my heart that Worm never got more attention. It's probably the best superhero (or villain depending on your perspective) story I've ever read

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Seinfeld.

You're describing Seinfeld.

Stupid, sexy Jerry.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago

Villains or antiheroes? Because this sounds like anti-heroes but villains are rather the people letting starving people die for profits.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Isn’t that just DOOM patrol?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Doom Patrol isn't made up of villians. They are people whose superpowers caused them to be traumatized in one way or another.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

I agree, but they are very shitty “heroes” to the point of causing plenty of villain like fallout 😅 the rest really fits the bill though.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

This reminds me of the Phantom Troupe.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but for a good read from a Villain perspective try A Practical Guide to Evil

https://practicalguidetoevil.wordpress.com/summary/

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Wait, so what is going on over in the USA, but sexy??

I guess that would be significantly more palatable ... still murder tho.

But if I could choose my dictator I would like a big mommy dommy goth, pls!
(I would be a boot-locker & it would be illegal to kink-shame me!)

I'm currently reading a series called Everybody Loves Large Chests. The protagonist is a dungeon mimic who gains sentience and levels up. It collects a bunch of sexy villain characters along the way. Surprisingly compelling.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It's weeb degeneracy with rape, fantasy Nazis, and a loli that shouts Ora Ora as she punches because the author took a fantastic premise and smeared shit all over it.

It got recommended to me by a Redditor.

I do not forgive their sins, or yours for spreading it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

You're not wrong 🫤 There certainly are very cringey elements in it, and I haven't enjoyed every book equally. The writing quality (content aside) is largely ok, but the editing is spotty.

To amend my previous recommendation, do not read this if you are looking for thoughtful, high quality fantasy. It's an interesting premise, with some clever aspects and a lot of bullshit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

That's just what Sexy Lexy did!!!
Friendship is magic!

Reminds me of an all evil campaign I played in once.

I recall "heroically" leading the towns militia into a wererat den on the night of the full moon, only to lock them all in together and finish off the stragglers on both sides afterwards. Turns out militiamen's scalps look awfully similar to those of reverted wererats, and we turned quite a profit.

Basically the Harley Quinn show.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 6 days ago

Harley being Batman's therapist and keeping his identity secret ("Doctor-patient confidentiality") was one of the most wholesome things ever.

the episodes of the venture bros where the monarch is forced to interact with other villains are the best.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago

Baron underbite knocking on the monarch's door for a place to crash because he "just got divorced"

Heros: "We did it, we finally killed the evil bad guy"

The evil bad guy's 12 best friends:

Organisation 13 if they care for each other

Villains are usually better written, more developed characters while the good guys are just good for sake of being good.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

I keep identifying the the villains, but eventually, I realized that the writers of mainstream media are heavily invested in the status quo.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Isn't that because there are fewer unambiguous ways to be "good"? Even many people doing "good" could be seen by others as being evil?

  • "I'm saving the forest!" "You're killing loggers"
  • "No one will every go hungry again!" "You stole every piece of arable land and only grow the food you want to exist"
  • "I've saved everyone's soul. Everyone is going to the happy afterlife when they die!" "Which religion's afterlife are you calling the 'happy' one?"
[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

I defeat Joker and saved 10 people's life!

No you dingus! Letting Joker live mean more people will be killed before you stop him again!

Dimension 20 basically did this with Escape From the Bloodkeep and it was, as usual, fantastic.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

My first thought! Although apparently it was designed to end in PvP. One of the best seasons in my book, definitely the top sidequest season.
