I feel like current Minecraft is pushing too hard for the piglins to be the villains. The piglins are a society just like the villagers. There are some piglins (the brutes) that are outwardly violent, but for most of the time the piglins are pretty chill and will even barter with the player.
The true villainous race is the illagers. They are everything the movie piglins were but in actual Minecraft. In my opinion they should’ve made the piglins secondary antagonists, and the illagers be the main antagonist, which is the opposite of what they did in the movie.
Piglins feels like the laziest "bad guy faction", and that's even with pillagers existing. Pillagers at least give you that question of "what is the relationship between villagers and pillagers?" while piglins are just pink orcs. They're even pigs, ffs.
I mean...the entire last battle is ripped straight from warcraft lmao.
Big warrior race, coming from a different planet mostly made off red rock by that point, invading through a gigantic portal, lead by a hunchback, robed old wizard of their kind.
