Makes me want to see a movie where you seem to have stereotypical Hero/villain situation, whether it's james bond esque or supervillain styled, but when it gets to this point the villain just whips out a gun and blasts the hero at the end of a big all-revealing speach. Then the sidekick saves the day

The developers of games are usually piss poor and if a game doesn't sell chances are they'll be without a job soon. Whereas the publishers, who also take the biggest cut, are fucking 9/10 loaded with cash. But in this case with Far Cry 3 the publishers are also the ones who house the developers; so download as you please knowing you hurt NOBODY.

Some do it for fun, they like the thrill of making others suffer. Some don't have a reason, they do it just because. Those men want to see the world burn. Still others do it because they must. There lives are so full pain, so full of misery that they have to find someway of surviving it. So they take their misery, their anguish and sorrow and fashion it into a blade. They go around and stab others with these blades, spreading the misery. For only by doing this can they hope to alleviate some of their own suffering. Only by spreading what they feel are they able to make it through the day. Titty sprinkles.
That's the point. The Joker will keep killing people especially who he knows is somehow related to the Batman to try and make Batman kill him. The Joker is the best villain because he always wins. If Batman kills him, his rule is broken and the Joker has broken Bruce as a man. If Batman doesn't kill him, the Joker can go on killing and everyone holds Batman responsible because he had the chance to stop it. Killing him would ruin the game and leave the Joker with no equal. The Batman-Joker dichotomy is chaos versus order and, of course, neither can win without compromises.
I honestly,
Villains do it because villains want recognition, and sometimes killing the good guy in't enough, he has to hammer into his head that he won, that there's nothing the hero can do etc. It's almost like the psychological thrill is more important than the task.
Think of in sports, it's good to win.. but it feels WAY better to completely crush the other team. Especially because in most cases the villain has a personal vandetta against the hero. So a team that regularly beats your team, and you win, and can absolutely dominate that team, it's what you'd want to do.
The 'tell your plan and gloat' aspect of a villain isn't that unrealistic, what's normally more unrealistic is when the villain escapes and manages to stop the plan even after it's already 99% in motion.

I can think of worse...
Oh, didn't invite me to your daughter's birth? That's fine, I'll just waltz right into your castle, curse her to an eventual death in front of the entire nobility, psychologically torture with years of paranoia leading you to shut your own daughter away and obsess over spinning needles, and gloat over the dead girl's body when my plan succeeds.
And then for good measure I'll continue my party-crashing ways by letting the Heartless run amok all over various worlds.

Amon does that too, villains that just do their thing instead of explain it are the best type of villain, also leaves more to the imagination.
knocking out is perfectly fine for a younger audience show, rape isn't something that will EVER be applied to a show like that... it's too light-hearted for something that dark and the younger audience doesn't need to see that either...
Hell... it's rare for rape themed elements in even more adult themed shows that aren't about crime solving.

Yes but death is an inevitable end and even kids know what death is to some degree while rape is completely evil and unjustifiable in any situation. My kids are going to know what death is. And by kids show I don't mean freaking kindergarteners I mean more along the lines of 10 + who can handle things like this in shows just fine without freaking out. Also, all the death and whatnot in the show is never shown directly. Such as in your explosion there, you're not seeing the limbs ripped or the blood flying everywhere, it's implied that they're dead without showing anything graphic, which is just fine for kids because they know better.
Like I said... death is an inevitable end for everything! Everything dies, period, the end. Yes, death is sad, but were they shown directly dying? No... they weren't. You didn't see a bullet travel through Bambi's mom and blood pooling on the ground, nor did you see the kid actually drowning and gasping in Bridge to Terabithia.
I never once said that death isn't sad, cause it can be, but it still always happens no matter what.

He did it because he wanted to send her a message and fight her in a respectable battle instead of just knocking her out from the dark, he didn't want to be a cheap little asshole. But afterwards he probably felt pretty stupid.
Scar wasn't a hunter either, if you remember he made the lionesses go and hunt, which is how it usually works in the wild anyway.
And as far as anyone else knew, he came into power the "right" way, nobody was the wiser so they did what they were expected to do.

uh huh...and then he let the only other person who could possibly be capable of stopping him go and left it up to 3 moronic hyenas to finish him off...

Glinda the good witch is the best villain. She lets another witch get crushed by a flying house and then convinces an innocent girl (Dorothy) that it was her fault. When the dead witches sister comes to take the body and give her sister a proper burial, Glinda steals the shoes right from the corpse and forces Dorothy to wear them. Then Glinda puts the blame on Dorothy so that the other witch wants to kill Dorothy. Glinda tells Dorothy that to get home she must see the Wizard of Oz (when Glinda knows Dorothy could easily get home with the shoes), knowing that the wizard would tell Dorothy to kill the witch. After Dorothy kills the witch they figure out that the wizard is a fraud. Then Glinda tells Dorothy how to go home to get rid of her.
Glinda tricked Dorothy into killing the only two other witches and then exposing the only wizard as a fraud, thereby leaving Glinda as the only supreme magical power in all of Oz. It was all just her plan to take over Oz, but what makes her the best villain is that nobody ever suspected she was a villain, she even has the name 'Glinda the good witch'.
tldr: Glinda makes Dorothy kill everything so that Glinda is free to fuck everything.

It almost has the exact same wording as your argument

In Baum's original OZ books, Glinda was the witch of the South and another witch (who has many names depending on which book you read) was the witch of the North. MGM's Wizard of Oz movie did away with the witch of the North and made Glinda the witch of the North. Gregory Maguire followed the movie tradition by having Glinda come from the North, leaving the South witchless.

The fucker got PREPARED beforehand
After he explained the plan to those idiots I'm sure he never wanted to go over the details again.
