10 of the Best Gaming Villains in 2015

Every hero needs a villain.

Gherman (Bloodborne)

Recommended Videos

As the first Hunter in the Bloodborne mythology, players have a certain attachment to Gherman. After all, he gives them advice, trains them, shows them what they could be with hard work…and lots and lots of dying. To have him help you uncover the mystery of this dark world is some welcome assistance.

Until you get to the end and learn that it’s him behind everything going on in this hellish nightmare. The only way he can free you is to kill you, or you can try to take him on and see that he’s more than just a guy in a wheelchair. His role as the guardian of the Great One makes you wonder if you’re truly the hero you think you are. Maybe the Great One is doing the right thing in sending these creatures out to kill you? It’s open to interpretation, but there’s no denying how great of an ally turned enemy that Gherman is. And man, is he a pain to fight.
