Poll: Would you rather be a villain, hero, or side-kick?

[Rin Little]

Simple and straight-forward. If you could choose to ave any part in any of the super-hero comics or movies, which would you rather be and who? Honestly I would choose to be a villain and I would love to be Harley Quinn, she's so crazy and head-over-heels for the Joker, I just love it!

Hero. I'd be... Spider-Man. I'm a smartarse, I love cameras, and a whole buncha other stuff about what he does. I believe in justice, too, and that with power comes the responsibility to use it wisely.

 

[Windthor]

I'd like to be a villain.

Because, and I'm sure there are people who can back me up on this, playing a villain is just fun.

 

[DEAD34345]

Villain... though I'm not sure why exactly. I just find that 99% of the time I like the bad guys more than the good guys (even my avatar is a villain). Also, judging by my experience with video-games (specifically Dungeon Keeper and KOTOR), being the villain is much more fun than being the good-guy.

 

[Carbonyl]

I don't have time for full-time heroics... I have science to do.

Also, the definition of a hero: Someone who gets other people killed.

 

[Baradiel]

Villain. I'd be a classy villian, they're the best kind...

 

[game-lover]

I'd probably be a sidekick... It'd be good to know I'm not alone on this thing and there's a little less responsibility. Plus, someone is always watching my back and this is nice

Provided, I don't get all pissed like apparently every other side kick and feel like stepping out on my own...

 

[FalloutJack]

Have you SEEN me laugh? I'm a villain, yo.

Hero. With my build, the kind of villain I'd be seen as is not who I am. However, as a hero, it suits me fine. I could be like a white Luke Cage or a Colossus type guy. As a villain, people built like me(tall, big, fairly muscular) are usually seen as the "dumb, comic relief" villain, and that's not me.

 

[Mr. 47]

Hero. I like being the good guy. My primary characters are in Mass Effect(2), Fallout 3, and inFAMOUS.

 

[RedMore Trout]

I would sure as hell use my powers for my own benefit. But, I wouldn't be a psychopath about it. Something like Catwoman, I"m just here to steal crap, not enslave the human race or anything crazy.

 

[MetroidNut]

I regularly practice my evil laugh; I'd be a villain. First, villains simply tend to be more interesting than their heroes. And second? I pride myself on trope familiarity; I'd be Dangerously Genre Savvy. A Dangerously Genre Savvy villain is one of the most powerful forces in fiction - just look at Watchmen.

That said, I'd be the sympathetic antihero kind of villain, in the vein of Doctor Horrible; the sort working towards a (perceived) greater good, but using extremely villainous means to do it.

 

[Viral_Lola]

I would like to be the villain. Does anybody need an arch nemesis?

 

[Ninonybox_v1legacy]

I have to say Villain because I have a nice evil laugh, and because I would do everything correctly. By correctly I mean capture hero, tie him down, have 50 armed henchmen with me as I gloat about his failure and kill him myself with a gun. If he somehow escapes I will have my 50 henchmen shoot at him simultaneously instead of attacking one by one. And I will be damned if they end up missing every shot, this is not Commando. There will defiantly be an on base shooting range.

 

[Leemaster777]

I am somewhat concerned by the number of potential villains on this site.

Anyways, I'd be a hero. Specifically, The Flash. MORE specifically, the Wally West version. He's just a great guy, and arguably the fastest of all the Flashes.

 

[Akukaishi]

I give in to temptation pretty easily. If I had powers, I daresay I'd be a villain within a week or two. It'd start small, you know. Small things, petty things, little 'edges' I'd give myself...but pretty soon it'd be full-blown super-villainy. Or at least a good solid anti-hero-ing.

 

[ms_sunlight]

Sidekick every time. You get the funny lines and avoid the angst.

 

[Son of a Mitch]

In games/movies/books I always find it a lot more interesting to be a villain, just because being a hero is too predictable. With the evil guys, you can be creative and do whatever the hell you want and nobody can call you out on it. Heros have to be the good guy and help people or else they aren't heros.

 

[AzureRaven]

I'd rather be a sidekick. I hate being in the spotlight, but I'd love to help out. As long as I'm not one of the "wtf" sidekicks. >_>
