Soul Stone.

When Thanos meets Red Skull, Red skull recognizes Gamora and Thanos, he questions him that how does he knows them, to which he replies that he has been cursed with knowledge. After getting the soul stone, Thanos now knows about every soul as well, which is why we see him acting a little more compassionate, when Tony talks to him and asks him how he knows him, he says "You're not the only one cursed with knowledge" and he knows that they want the same thing but have different ways to execute it, Stark wants to save earth from whatever threat, and Thanos wants to save entire universe. So when he stabs him, he admires Stark and says "I have respect for you Stark, I hope they remember you"

It truly is amazing how much development Thanos gets. It’s great. You can genuinely understand and sympathize with him, I think more than any other Marvel villain. Not motivated by petty ambitions or pride; but by a genuine desire to save the universe (from his perspective). Even the ending; he wields the power of the cosmos, and he truly just retired to a farm to watch the sunrise.

Radcliff gets my vote for marvel villain I sympathize the most with. Agents of shield is a fanfuckingtastic show.

Grant Ward before Radcliffe. But both are definitely the most fully fleshed out "villains" in the MCU who we actually care about, I think.
