There are several ways to portray a good villain. A villain doesn't have to feel they are the hero of their own version of the story to have a motivation for what they are doing, or have a backstory that explains their character. Sometimes a great villain is the shadow of the protagonist, having traits and beliefs that the protagonist shares, or those less desirable that the protagonist denies. It's all the matter of how well the villain is written, regardless.

I never got into Buffy, so I don't know about Spike, but Snape was never really a villain, at least not the sort that the Death Eaters themselves are. He has many antagonist qualities, sure, and does some things of questionable morality, but it kind of becomes clear along the way that he's a complex character that cannot be easily put into any catagory. At least that's how I see it. When I was reading the book, it was becoming clear that Snape wasn't becoming the villain that I had expected or wanted, but somehow I felt satisfied with his story arc, even appreciated it, even if a lot of HP is flawed.
