He just kinda goes around blaming the hero for the bad things that happen. It's never really explained who he is (okay, they kinda did, but it was stupid and you know it) or why he does what he does.
He's also the protagonist.Harry Mason said:Alex Mercer from Prototype.

Seriously. He sucks.
He was mad because Spock failed to save his civilization and blamed him for it.Pompey71 said:Nero from the Star Trek reboot
Just imagine Barry Pepper eating an old lady... It might be awesome, but he still doesn't have proper motivation to do so...mazzjammin22 said:But he was voiced by Barry Pepper (Roger Maris in 61*)...and he had a sweet jacket...Harry Mason said:Alex Mercer from Prototype.

Isn't he evil because he was twisted by the power of Mordor and the rings?Pompey71 said:oh... and Sauron from Lord of the Rings! Why is he evil... who knows?!
Yeah, I guess. By the way, that photo is perfect for this string of posts. It's sort of like a "Wait...what?" look.Harry Mason said:Just imagine Barry Pepper eating an old lady...

I played Prototype (sorry, [Prototype]) all the way through multiple times, and I never found a single good reason for him to be acting like such a dick. There's angry anti-hero, and then there's psychotic mass murderer...DarkRyter said:He's also the protagonist.

Yeah... he looks like he's watching someone eat an old lady from far away. "Wait... What? Eeew!"mazzjammin22 said:Yeah, I guess. By the way, that photo is perfect for this string of posts.

He is a prick for no reason other than being a prick. He also burned down his village when he was younger because he hated them for no good reason. What's worse is that you have to put up with him for a good portion of the game. He is Chaotic Evil, but did not get the "Evil isn't stupid" memo. He is also a cheater and has better stats than you can legally have for a PC (Pointbuy of 40 rather than 36)
"I have all this I could sell at exorbitant rates to third-world countries currently embargoed from OPEC, fueling their rainforest-logging, or shark-fin fishing, or what have you. This would make it so I could get rich and buy more things I like AND I could hurt the environment more... or I could just dump it, because I don't care. Call me Captain Wang Mother Nature, and behold my phallusy!"jumb said:The bad guys from Captain Planet.
Their motivations are so dumb.
Remember that he is the physical embodiment of the blacklight virus that built itself upon the genetic makeup of the real Alex Mercer.Harry Mason said:I played Prototype (sorry, [Prototype]) all the way through multiple times, and I never found a single good reason for him to be acting like such a dick.

in some ways, he can be seen as a peacekeeper due to his unifying hundreds of tribes and factions each with differing viewpoints under one bannerSoviet Heavy said:Everyone who read the appendices knows.

That's actually very debatable. But as it turns out I don't know how to use the spoiler function so I'll just leave it at that.kurupt87 said:Errm, if I remember correctly...Harry Mason said:I played Prototype (sorry, [Prototype]) all the way through multiple times, and I never found a single good reason for him to be acting like such a dick.

...he's not human.
Edit:...and never was.
Edit 2:...Alex Mercer was just the first guy it killed and absorbed.
Who, Autumn and Eden? Eden wanted to "purify" the wasteland by wiping out all semi-mutated life and Autumn wanted to do the same and also wanted to see the Enclave become the power it was prior to the Oil Rig being nuked. They both believed that all mutated life had to be destroyed to secure the future for humanity and both believed they were acting for the greater good, like most Fallout Villains (Master, Richardson and even Caeser). Seriously though, what is it with bad guys in Fallout 1/2 keeping something that can level a city in their base conveniently for the player to blow it up? You guys say Fallout 3 had bad writing why the fuck did the main bad guys have nukes to be detonated by the stealthy characters in the first place? The Master only had 2 guards for his nuke for fuck sake!Pandabearparade said:Every villain in the Sword of Truth Randroid propaganda tracts.
