I know this is 3 years old, but I'm still gonna answer it:
Personally, Steve is what the player makes them, but if we're gonna talk about what the majority of people who play Minecraft make of Steve then the answer is Villain, simply put Steve (the player but I'm gonna call him steve for the sake of it) kills many animals for their survival only, if it was about a lot of people he's feeding then it would be understandable, but no, also, Steve invades other worlds to hunt the people in them, like the nether, or the end, or the endcity, and Steve raids villages to take their stuff, most hostile mobs have good reasons to attack Steve such as invading their world or when pillagers get invaded by Steve so they defend themselves.
