User blog:AustinDR/Overrated Villains


 * 1) Peridot: Don't get me wrong, while I do think Peridot is a great villain, her fanbase tends to go a little too far with her. Most of her fans try to paint her in a sympathetic light or try to pass her actions off as being misguided at worse, which is somewhat delusional at best. While it is possible for Peridot to redeem herself, keep in mind, this Gem has done several things that really make you question if it's even possible for her to redeem herself. She had tried to kill Steven and the Crystal Gems several times, she tried to murder Steven in a very brutal fashion when she first met him even though he wasn't even a threat to her mission, she tried to reestablish the Kindergarten to grow more Gems (which would potentially lead to the extinction of all life on the Earth), she had taken part in forced Gem experiments, etc. So, again, while it is possible for her to redeem herself, don't think that the Crystal Gems would forgive her that easily.
 * 2) Jeff the Killer - I had already explained my reasons as to why I do not like this emo little s@#t in a previous blog, and I dislike him even more, because his story is one of the most well-known Creepypastas. Seriously, why is it that his story is so well-known while better Creepypastas don't get as much attention?
 * 3) Foxy the Pirate: Much like Peridot's case, several people try to paint Foxy in a sympathetic light. Besides the popular theory in which Foxy goes to check on you in the first game, many people also believe that Foxy extends his arms to hug you in his jumpscare in FNAF 2. Never mind the fact that Foxy's jaws are open when he has his arms extended.
 * 4) Clockwerk: A Jeff the Ripoff character. In the story, she gets raped by her brother, and she ultimately snaps when her boyfriend broke up with her. She later murders several innocent people for no real reason, and she kills her family just for the sake of blood and gore. She then gouges her eye out, and she puts a clock in the empty socket. This story is awful for several reasons. For one, the story uses rape as nothing more than a shock factor, and it glamorizes murder. That's one of the issues that I have with most of these Creepypasta stories. It's almost as if the writer is trying to tell their viewers that murder is cool when it actually isn't.
