FF15 What do you think of Ardyn?

[Emma kwamboka]

Ardyn is the main antagonist and appears in the feature film kingslaive. Ardyn is a shrewd, humorous and manipulative man. He is unpredictable, and his exaggerated and perfomative personality hides his sinister intentions as well as his dark past. Personally, I think Ardyn does deserve all that is happening to him.

That's a but a little bit too harsh judgment on him, I think that he doesn't deserve such fate even though he had a striking personality, he wasn't all that bad in the beginning.

Yes he wasn't in the beginning because he was pretending he is too of a hypocrite. Sorry to say. Why does that character come out then? He just hadn't realise he was evil or he was simply pretending. I loved him in the beginning but am glad I now know him for who he is.

I think that every character has an evil side that it's dormant, which can only manifest when such individual is been pushed against the walls beyond any limits. So, it's the case of what Ardyn had to pass through.

I now get why he was the way he is. If any of us had gone through what he did m sure it would have affected us to some extent we won't be the same person. It's so sad he had to go through all that.

Ardyn is a villain, and he might have been a victim of the circumstances, but at the same time it was not an easy situation.

Yes, I agree. It's just that for me, Ardyn was a terrible villain. Somehow it seems like they tried to play this guy up as a successor to Kefka, or something like that. I don't think they were able to handle him with some consistency.

I am aware that it's not uncommon for the most notable villain you see to be the final one of the game. Kefka did it; Sephiroth did it, Sin did it too. But it just felt poorly managed with Ardyn.

That's the thing, I feel the level of Final Fantasy is high, so whenever a character is not exactly spot on, we feel have superior comparison levels. Ardyn is pretty good though.

 

[AndreSek]

He is more of an antihero to me than full pledged villain. Yes we have to kill him but his back story just stings. He started as a good man who was a victim of circumstance.

I can't wait for his dlc because we will finally get to know him before he became corrupted. His dlc is the only one that survived the cancellation dramas Square Enix and Tabata have. The trailer of the dlc looked great so it really guts me that we will never see the others and their assets will be donated for Final Fantasy 14.
