3-5 ain't bad considering that his ranking where you are in the game owuld be based almost solely on his speech in Dalmasca.

In reality i just don't hold Final Fantasy Villians in general high regard.

They're mostly traditional type villians who seem to have no point but being evil, or there reason for being evil is completly tenuous.

Final Fantasy does a lot of things right... but when it comes to the villains... they usually botch it up.

Kefka's pretty plain, sure, but he's effective, and I think that's all that can really be asked of him. He's a bit like Richard III, you know?

Golbez is quality, though.

And when you're done - if that ever happens - I think you'll be willing to look at Vayne and Gabranth and Venat (maybe even Cid) with a hearty dose of respect, or even admiration.

The problem with Golbez isn't so much Golbez as Zeromus.

Goblez is a really effective and cool villian... but it feels like Zeromus really takes away a lot as a cliche (oh this evil guy made me do it) moment.

On the one hand it gives him a chance for redepmption... but on the otherhand it almost feels like you should excuse his being evil from the beggining unlike the other characters whose fault and redemption feel more "real" and of their own making.

I think it would of been a lot more effective if Zemus was ressurected without the whole "mind control" thing.
