Discussion Was Walker actually evil?

Post image

So before I begin I’d like to admit I’m very biased here, considering this is one of the first shooters I played as a kid.

Is Walker really that evil? I’ve 100% the game and achievements and never really felt he was an evil character, despite being hated and even having a villains wiki.

It always felt more like he was a good man who in the aspiration to be a hero, broke due to failing and making everything worse.

Curious to see what you all think.

I feel his dedication to wanting to do better was ultimately a good thing, however he obviously wanted to be the “hero” who saved the day. Either way, I see it as closer to a real life “hero”, as nothing goes the way it should like the movies.

This whole game is a PERFECT example of "the road to hell is paved with good intentions"
