careful ya might cut yourself on all
that edge welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’ll be counting down our picks
for the top 10 video game edge Lords
I’ve thought of a wonderful present for
shall I give you despair before we begin
we publish new content every day so be
sure to subscribe to our Channel and
ring the bell to get notified about our
latest videos for this list we’ll be
honoring those characters who are much
too cool for school
the dark clothing the sunglasses the
refusal to associate with others while
obviously associating with others get
the burn cream ready because it’s about
to get hard
dark pit you just dropped in to crash my
this doesn’t apply too much to the
freshly rebooted surviving the hand
she’s been dealt Lara Croft but old
school Zara Croft with her double
pistols and cool kid shades edge Lord
but we don’t mean that as a negative
seeing a female protagonist in a video
game who didn’t need to be rescued was
practically unheard of back in the day
and Laura doubled down by going on death
defying adventures simply because she
felt like it’s she wasn’t in it for the
money she was in it for the rush for the
excitement and because was so damn cool
now and saving the world of course it’s
hard to say exactly but you’ve seemed to
be doing fine
wow great number 9 Bomberman
there comes a time in a character’s life
where they feel the need to update their
image in order to get with their times
and you know what sometimes he’d go to
abandon that cutesy persona in favor of
something more grown-up for bomberman
2006 was that moment and it was
laughably horrendous we get the
impression that a roomful of executives
googled the word edgy to come up with
this cliche post-apocalyptic makeover
for what used to be an adorable mascot
character seriously did bomber man’s
wife and kid die too
doesn’t walk away from explosions at
least they took the hint in 2017 what am
I gonna do with these guys baby bump
I know a Farkle how you feel number
eight Sephiroth Final Fantasy 7 what I
want cloud it’s the sails of darkness of
the cosmos with this planet as my vessel
if looks could kill we don’t be dead as
soon as we caught wind of that long
silver hair the constant bane of cloud
strikes existence and the reason why we
cry during air it’s song Sephiroth is
one of the most memorable villains in
Final Fantasy history he’s also one of
those guys who goes overboard with
symbolism every appearance more
overdramatic than the last
listen safer off just because you have a
choir chanting about one winged angels
doesn’t mean you have to show up with
you know one wing it probably doesn’t
help that cloud is an angst muffin so
there duels tend to get a bit heavy I
will
never be a memory number 7 Riku kingdom
haunts series
riku is the guy who quietly hopes that
no one sees his old yearbook photos
hearts drenched in darkness betrayed by
his friends wearing a blindfold and an
all-black jacket as he seeks redemption
yeah we get a little bit of whiplash
when we look at the character that Riku
has become he’s definitely grown
throughout the franchise but once upon a
time he was that kid extending his hand
from the shadows with jagged silver hair
and misguided ambitions he does make up
for his actions which leads to a bounce
of internal conflict and suffering but
luckily his friends continue to believe
in him never mind
you okay feeling alright number six
Albert Wesker Resident Evil series I
expected more of a challenge after all
this time crash how disappointing let’s
be honest the first time we need Wesker
he’s not exactly the most intimidating
traitor out there but throughout the
franchise he’s gotten a full-blown edgy
upgrade gone are the whiny demands for
Chris to pay attention to him replaced
with especially whiny demands for Chris
matrix jacket check cartoon villain
laughs check sunglasses indoors check
and mate
now with supernatural abilities where he
teleports around the room and puts you
in a chokehold because walking is for
suckers
you know you’ve reached peak edge status
when you decide to have your final
number five Dante DMC Devil May Cry and
who the hell are you sometimes you look
at a character and you know without a
shadow of a doubt that they flip off or
thority figures smoke behind the
bleachers and spray graffiti on the
walls much like Bomberman this was not
the reimagining fans were expecting
especially when the Dante they come to
know with an over-the-top badass full of
cheesy endearing sort of charm we got
some of that far-out Pizza flying
through the air charm and we definitely
got the fast paced action but overall
DMC’s Dante came off as a moody edge
Lord the kind your parents try and keep
we don’t want to assume that he’s a
stoic loner based on looks alone but
yeah he’s a stoic loner isn’t he they
say not to judge a book by its cover
but with Dave’s ex you know exactly what
you’re in for
as soon as you grab the box cool do
dressed in all black equipped with
sunglasses eight gun and a futuristic
cityscape behind him yeah that’s a
decent amount of edge but Adam Jensen
turned up all the notches in 2011 black
clothes sunglasses shattered bits of
glass with intense game titles and a
tragic backstory that dear mojo holux is
the very definition of edge it hasn’t
been that long since I may not love
disable my memories pretty intact uh I
didn’t mean I mean of course your
memories fine sir it’s just that number
three Reaper overwatch his name its
Reaper need we say more
he’s got Hellfire shotguns and can step
between shadows while you still need
more he walks around with a hood over
his head and a skull mask his past is
shrouded in mystery he’s known for being
so treacherous on the battlefield then
it’ll be easier if he killed you instead
of leaving you to survive the carnage
and the eventual nightmares you haunted
with he can drain your health
he has a wraith form where he can pass
through his adversaries we’re not saying
he’s the edgiest
Angel of Death but if the shotgun fits
number two Shadow the Hedgehog Sonic the
Hedgehog series it all starts with this
you knew this one was coming shadow is
the very definition of trying way too
hard to be cool and honestly it can’t
help but love him serving as a rival
Hedgehog to the fastest thing alive he
is the polar opposite of the blue blue
he’s not gonna make way past cool quips
and eat chili dogs no none of that he’s
gonna stand in the corner with his arms
crossed brooding as he goes through an
existential crisis where he wonders who
he really is fortunately he’s got grunge
rock a motorcycle and a machine gun to
see him through I am the ultimate
Hedgehog
this is Who I am
before we get to our number one pick
let’s sharpen the edge for these
let you do
[Music]
and Ross had ordered us to take them
down
number one of the antagonist hatred it’s
time you know when you hear someone
talking about how video games are a bad
influence
hello and welcome to hatred I just named
this world and the human world feasting
on its carcass the cover alone is enough
to ward off well everyone but if you can
get past the long head thanks lord you
find out that his name is my name is not
important
oh okay his name isn’t important he’s
just a man who hates humanity because
reasons to him the world is so awful
that the only solution is to kill
everything himself included we’re fairly
certain that when people mock edge Lords
this is the exact character they have in
mind as probably why he wants to kill us
