Start at 50 seconds in. I couldn’t figure out the link with timecode thing.
Sephiroth - Final Fantasy 7
The first time you fight Magus in Chrono Trigger.
Voodoo One, Viper’s on station. Your journey ends here, Pilot - the skies belong to me. Nowhere to run… Nowhere to hide.
It has to be Riku in Kingdom Hearts. He takes about 5 minutes or more to tell you that your path ends there and he actually delivers. Then he tells it again when you inevitably try again, because you can’t skip the bloody cutscene.
Oryx at the end of the Destiny Taken King expansion. Walking down this dark passageway and his symbol appears in light in front of you and the door opens to reveal him. So epic!
absolute cinema
Nanomachines son!
Alright, the truth then. You’re right about one thing… I do need capital. And votes. Wanna know why? “I have a dream.” That one day, every person in this nation will control their OWN destiny. A land of the TRULY free, dammit. A nation of ACTION, not words. Ruled by STRENGTH, not committee. Where the law changes to suit the individual, not the other way around. Where power and justice are back where they belong: in the hands of the people! Where every man is free to think – to act – for himself! Fuck all these limp-dick lawyers and chicken-shit bureaucrats. Fuck this 24/7 Internet spew of trivia and celebrity bullshit. Fuck “American pride”. Fuck the media! Fuck all of it! America is diseased. Rotten to the core. There’s no saving it – we need to pull it out by the roots. WIpe the slate clean. BURN IT DOWN! And from the ashes, a new America will be born. Evolved, but untamed! The weak will be purged, and the strongest will thrive – free to live as they see fit, they will make America GREAT AGAIN!
What the hell are you talking about?
You still don’t get it. I’m using war as a business to get elected… so I can end war as a business! In my new America, people will die and kill for what they BELIEVE! Not for money, not for oil! Not for what they’re told is right. Every man will be free to fight his own wars!

Thank you. I didn’t think Senator Armstrong wouldn’t be recognized on the games community.
I never played that game, and without that context, it is genuinely scary how hard it is to tell whether it not this is a real thing a real politician actually said. God damn, Kojima saw it coming.
It’s crazy that the Japanese parodies of US politics are more accurate than any other portrayals from that era. They even got MAGA slogan dead on!
Yeah it is scary to hear make American great again before Trump ever campaigned in the 2016 election
It was Regan and Bush Senior slogan before that:
Ronald Reagan, the 1980 Republican presidential nominee, originated the slogan “Make America Great Again.” He and his running mate George H.W. Bush used the phrase on buttons and posters

There was a sci-fi book called Parable of the Sower in the early 90s that had it as the slogan of a shitty fascist president. It’s worth a read and will feel especially creepy right now.
Exactly what I came looking for and your post did not disappoint
“CONTEXT? I MADE IT THE FUCK UP!”
Senator Armstrong for President 2028,
He’s not as bad as what we’ve got!I had you all wrong, you’re not greedy… you’re batshit insane!!
Baltaeus from Armoured Core 6
Final boss and all of his phase changes in Black Myth Wukong
Renoir on a technicality from Expedition 33
Man I have really been riding the fence on dumping the money for Black Myth Wukong. You mind if I get your honest take? It worth full price?
Psycho Mantis as they can read my mind!
The post fight was also amazing. Such a well made character all around.
oh shit i forgot about him, yeah he’s probably the coolest one intro wise ngl
Dark souls 3 Abyss Watchers live rent free in my head.
Replying to myself because I remember the og Artorias and Sif intros. That series is full of cool ones though.
Oh man, and the environmental component hearing the clash of metal get louder as you approach the arena. FromSoft has always been good at it, but that was really peak environmental design and story telling.
Sarah Kerrigan in StarCraft 2.
I am the Swarm. Armies will be shattered. Worlds will burn. Now at last, on this world, vengeance shall be mine. For I am the Queen of Blades.
Mic Drop!
Saren, in Mass Effect.
The descent of the Moon Presence in Bloodborne is still one of my favorite intros ever.
I was going to say Ludwig for mine, but this one is epic too
