The show is \'\'visually\'\' DarkerandEdgier with the gloomy lighting and ominous over-looming threat. The atmosphere in A Ghost of a Chance and Blood Feud are very cold and slow, supported by the widescreen shots building suspense. While the jokes can be corny at times, the stories are taken very seriously.

\\\"Heel Hate\\\" is a phenomenon in which a villain is LOVED by fans due to being cool/well written, etc, referenced by the trope LoveToHate, which Omega qualifies for (namely for the narrative perspective and his awesome climatic encounter) but Weil doesn\\\'t. Omega doesn\\\'t count as a CompleteMonster due to lack of moral agency. His crimes basically amount to being a super deadly mechanical [[{{WarHammer40000}} Khorne Berserker]].
The reason why I\\\'m hating on Weil so much is because of just how awfully done the 4th game was handeled in terms of both narrative and gameplay in comparison to the other 3 games, much of that being the result of the salvo of pointless and unnessecary {{Retcon}}s and {{AssPull}}s that turned the plot into a head banging ContinuitySnarl. The only good thing that came out of that game was the final battle and the \\\"I never cared about justice\\\" speech. Let\\\'s not forget the KillSat AssPull: the one in which Weil is the center point of a Neo Arcadia nuking KillSat, only for an AssPull in which Weil has Wolverine grade regeneration out of nowhere, immortal means unkillable instead of the more accurate term \\\"immune to natural death\\\", and how regeneration can somehow function even when you\\\'ve been disintegrated to the point of being atomized (it doesn\\\'t work that way). Pointless and crappy {{Retcon}}s are also a personal pet peeve of mine, so something with an entire fusilade of them all at once is going to get some eye rolling from me. My core point is about Weil\\\'s competence as a villain being called into question, not his malice.
I\\\'ve abandoned the \\\"he should fall\\\" posistion, since I find the \\\"getting mocked for all his inept bull crap\\\" approach an infinitely funnier way to smack down the BS than a simple fall. Of course a fall combined with dark humor is even better, but since you\\\'ve made a lot of good points that Weil does fit the portfolio perfectly, I\\\'ll settle for the non fall version of dark humor.
