Nietzsche Wannabe: Difference between revisions

* Sargeras in the ''[[Warcraft]]'' universe was driven insane by the depthless evil of the demons he fought, and because of this he began to believe that the Titans' mission of creating new worlds was utterly pointless, and that chaos is the natural state of the universe. He created the Burning Legion, a massive demonic army, to revert the universe from an ordered one to a chaotic one. Even after Sargeras was apparently killed (officially he's "absent"), [[Word of God|Chris Metzen]] has stated that the Legion's current commander, Kil'jaeden the Deceiver, still follows his master's philosophy.

* In ''[[Tales of the Abyss]]'' there's Sync. {{spoiler|He's a [[Cloning Blues|failed Clone]] of a [[Creepy Child]] (according to the manga: Sync's original likes keeping people as pets) that was thrown alive into a volcano. ''He Lived.''}} His response? Essentially, [[Suicidal Cosmic Temper Tantrum|he wants to die, and take the whole, meaningless world with him.]]

** Actually, this is a [[Subverted Trope|subversion]], because he isn't being nihilistic, he's being compassionate in a very warped way. He's proposing a [[Ubermensch|constructive solution]] to the pain of all living beings. (Yes, "kill the world" is constructive in this sense. It solves the problem he's trying to solve, it's just not a solution that anyone else likes.)

*** This might be true, if there wasn't the possibility of convincing him, that his conclusions are based on his personal experience only. He does not necessarily stick to this [[Ubermensch|constructive solution]]. He can be convinced that he is a [[Nietzsche Wannabe]].
