There are many ways to
create a great villain either in video games, movies, or books. We are going to
show you how to create one.
Start with have a great and
interesting backstory. It doesn’t have to be a cheesy tragic backstory, make it
simpler so the audience can understand and relate to the backstory.
Then have yourself placed in
their shoes, in other words, different perspective. Understanding your villain
character is important in building their own character. How would you feel as a
villain, what is your motivation. There are many motivations, even though it’s
silly but it’s reasonable.
You can also give an
unexpected plot twist to the characters that you wanted to make a villain. As
for an example, the protagonist’s friend could be their worst enemy, with this
kind of formula can result a great impact to character building, that could
make the protagonist have a trust issue because of the backstabbing.
Lastly, give them a great design. Visual is also
important! Make your villain character more stand out, make them different. A
great design of character can be memorable.
