10 Misunderstood and Misguided Villains in Video Games

December 6, 2013 by Yesika Reyes

Some villains have a sympathetic side that most players ignore in various video games.

2. Loghain (Dragon Age:  Origins)

I actually read one of the Dragon Age novels called the Stolen Throne and it actually gives you the chance to get to know Loghain. I feel that the game didn't really give players the chance to understand Loghain's motivations. It's terrible that he decided to withdraw from the battle, but I believe he did it to fight another day being the tactician he is. 

I believe that he truly wanted to protect Ferelden but was influenced by Arl Howe and his war experiences in the past. I just didn't like how he framed the Grey Wardens. I mean at least own up to it! However, I decided to let him join my party even if it cost me Alistair. How could I say no to a remorseful Hero of Riverdane?
