maester seymour vs. kefka

[dappa]

Both these two villians in a way were victims of circumstances beyond their control which made them the way they were.

Kefka being infused wrongly with magicite turning him loopy
Seymour being tortured and bullied by his peers for being half guado and half human

well kefkas got my vote for his laugh and his makeup lol

 

[Shinra Soldier 1]

Seymour was a piece of cake to defeat and didn't even do all that bad, he even helped kill fiends in the blitzball arena. Kefka, i don't know who he is (have only played 7, 9 X series) but he sounds way worse!

 

[dappa]

Without giving too much spoilers away, kefka actually realised his dream

 

[locke cole]

woot kefka read my sig

 

[Hydra]

Kefka does what the other FF villains are too weak/too sissy to do. He does what they strive to do, but fall before they do so.

Kefka>Seymour.

 

[dappa]

a lot of the villians in ff managed to aquire the power they so craved but were defeated before they could actually use the power to enslave others.

(spoilers)

Kefka did inflict a cataclysm on the world but i dont remember him sayin in the dialogue between him and Gestahl that he wanted to destroy the world, i remember Gestahl warning him not to move the statues and kefka not caring what could happen so long as he got power.

Now i do remember kefka at the top of his tower before the final battle with your party saying that he wants to destroy all life including himself. He was stopped from doing it by the returners.

So in the end even though Kefka did destroy the world to some extent he was ultimately stopped from finishing the job.

Seymour never even got started really, thats all I can say for seymour

 

[ThroneofDravaris]

Kefka's characterization was far better handled then Seymour and indeed any other villain in the series. There are several nuances to Seymour's character that are fairly interesting but they aren't explored as thoughtfully as they could have been. Kefka's character revels in its simplistic, psychotic nature and he is quite rightfully considered one of the greatest video game villains ever made.

 

[Phoenix Flame]

Umm...ummmm.... ditto. o_o


What could you add to that... ?_?

 

[Avathar]

Kefka > Seymour anyday, it's as simple as that. Like Throne said, the simplicity of Kefka's character, and the amount of evil he owns, that's just so incredibly appealing in any way. Seymour has its interesting points, but not deep enough to be compared to Kefka going dancing mad. ;D

 

[Peridot Fayth]

URGH! Seymour because he makes my skin crawl. Seriously, I've played many games over the years...console and PC but no one has made my skin crawl as much as Seymour!

Plus Yuna belongs to Tidus imo so move aside Seymour or you'll have me to deal with!
