Comment on What's one cliche "Moral of the story" in media that you hate more than anything else?
schipelblorp@sh.itjust.works 4 days agoIs it better when the hero decides at the last minute to spare the life of the villain so they “don’t become like them” or is it worse?

If the hero also spares the life of the 100+ randoms, it’s better.
But killing them and sparing the life of the super evil villain, is much much worse.
At least in my opinion.

Thank you! Henching is an undeservedly maligned profession.

I wouldn’t mind seeing a take on it, where the 100+ are at least arguably spared and the villain is actually killed at the end, completing the revenge. At least once.
