My favorite character is Zanza.

lolz.

Also Egil and Dickson. Honestly I found the villains to be better characters than the main party. I felt the same way with Xenosaga. Though the gap is smaller in Xenoblade.

Honestly i've felt the villains are poorly-developed and of rather cliched motive. Dickson is rather amusing in an "evil and doesn't give a fuck" kind of way, but Egil seemed like they just ripped Pain/Nagato, or Sasuke to a point, straight out of Naruto, with all "blah blah cycle of vengeance," and so far (i'm dancing around the Bionis' Interior as i grind) Zanza just seems like a normal god-villain.

I disagree. All of the main villians were unique.

Mumkhar was power-hungry for the Monado.

Xord was manipulated into a killing machine.

Fiora and Gadolt were trapped, but fought through.

Egil was trying to do the right thing, and was, but went overboard.

Lorithia wanted the crown, and would get it by any means.

Dickson was the hero gone mad, the guy who played the entire party

And Zanza was the crazed scientist, who was tasked with the new world, but the power went to his head.

 

All of them were unique, and their motives were clear, which is unusual.
