10 of the Best Gaming Villains in 2015

Every hero needs a villain.

Gaunter O’Dimm (Witcher 3: Hearts of Stone)

Recommended Videos

The main antagonist of The Witcher 3’s first expansion looks like a normal guy, and that’s the point. He is That Guy that you’d pass by on the street and pay no attention to; no one would blame you if you saw Gaunter just hanging around in cutscenes and just thought him a random NPC you’d see while gaming, no big deal. But he’s much more than what you’re expecting.

Turns out, good ol’ Gaunter has the power to do basically anything and grant wishes to whoever asked. Sounds cool, right? Except for the part where he’s a human Monkey’s Paw and the wishes he grants don’t work out well for whoever came to him. It’s all a game to Gaunter, but don’t break his rules, or he’ll break your face. His unpredictable nature makes him a formidable foe for Geralt. You just have to pick him out of a crowd first…
