Hopefully that's the Overlords helmet that Don gonna wear soon.
Yes, nothing quite like taking one of the smarter, more tactician-esque ponies and saying she's just a vapid bimbo!...except that's disgustingly mysoginistic.
And by the way, you just implied he's straight up murdered Gilda again. Why do we like this guy? He bemoans his own species for how aaaawful it is, yet he's doing the very thing he complains humanity sucks for doing when we were stupid and dumb hicks. How does he not recognize that as hypocritical? And how do YOU?
OOOOH! Shouldn't be to long until he has Diamond Dog minions, He'd have to use magic to raise their inteligance to minion levels but hey, they can dig like nobodies business
4557824 Dude, he's an evil overlord he isn't supposed to be likable.

First of all, it's a known fact he didn't murder her, just that she's gone 'off the grid' so to speak to join his evil forces, second he's not really human, he's the developed fragment of a once powerful and savage evil entity that was Human once, from a world not our own. Don's memories are a fabrication while his soul lay dormant for ages. and as other's have told you, he's evil. He's not supposed to be likable in the most common sense.

I think Darth Vader disagrees with you on whether an evil overlord can be likable to the audience.

That's an asinine argument.
Hannibal, Vader, Dexter, Loki, Magneto, Dr. Doom are all evil. But the audience likes them a lot. Why? They're relatable in some way because of sympathetic backstory, or they're charming and affable even though evil and actually respect their opponents, or they do horrible things but have loved ones they show true compassion and care for, or they're trying to do the right thing, but they go about it the wrong way, which makes us wish they weren't righting for the wrong side. Their ultimate goals are admirable even if their methods are wrong, or we feel for how they suffered in the past and can sympathize with them, or the love they show for others makes us think "Okay, he's a monster, but he really seems to actually love his mom" so we cut him some slack. That's what a good villain needs to have. Otherwise there is no reason to see him succeed. It isn't like you're making his opponents even more horrible than he is, they're nothing but nice. So you can't play the "evil fighting evil" card like he's some kind of "The Authority of DC comics" figure. A villain who has no redeeming qualities or admirable qualities or relatable qualities or sympathetic goals or backstory makes for a terrible protagonist. He should be an ANTAGONIST with the story giving equal time to a foil for him that is all HE is not.
4559491 You're bold in assuming what you have. H'e s a Villain, he's evil, not supposed to be an anti villain, anti hero, or any such thing. This is a story for those who enjoy a capable badguy who's evil just because he's really Evil.

That's not good motivation. Why would I care about someone who's evil just because he's evil?
The Over-Sexual Teacher
Best Sex Ed lesson evar!
Overlord is best sex ed teacher, he knows all the "fun" stuff one can do in the bed chambers
such talent! Spike will be worshiped by females far and wide!
4560029 uh, why do you want someone to give you a reason to 'care' ? either you're reading this for the plot or out of some sick interest in how his plans pan out, or you're here for the wrong reasons. pretty much what it comes down to pal.
4562303
Well, I'M here to see him either develop into a dynamic character, or to see him get comeuppance.
4562450 those my friend would fall under the blanket term of 'plot' as I was using it

i do like my evil overlord.
oh boy that going to be funny
Oh boy. Thats everyone's nightmare. 'The Talk'
Well spike its time to become a man
Cut to Spike with a thousand mile stare.
