From characters we all hate to those we just wish would be removed from their respective franchise or series, here is a complete list of the WORST video game characters of all-time. For this list, only characters who originate or mostly appear in video games will count.
When ranking a character based on “character“ and personality and how well-written they are, I like to scale them on a A+ to F scale. Of course, F signifies a terrible or unoriginal character, while A+ signifies a very original and well-written character. Anyone C or lower signifies that the character isn’t that good, while anyone C+ or higher signifies a good or average character.

Infinite is the secondary antagonist of Sonic Forces. He is a jackal and crybaby who lost against Shadow and now literally hates everyone. Yeah... Infinite is by far one of the worst video game villains of all time due to the fact that he’s a crybaby who thinks he’s all tough and cool and better than everyone else. This makes him easily unlikeable over almost every other Sonic character in existence. There is nothing to like about Infinite besides his outward appearance, or outfit. Other than that, I cannot stand him and his role in Sonic Forces is one of the main reasons I hate the game. He loses, he cries and complains and wants to destroy everyone. Somehow survives the events of Sonic Forces for the plot. He’s basically a much more hated version of Shadow the Hedgehog, and as someone who doesn’t like Shadow, he makes the black Hedgehog look superior. Rank: F

I genuinely cannot stand this woman, nor does she bring me the pleasure of welcoming me to Whiterun like most other characters in the city. Olfina is very rude and harsh towards any player who chooses the male gender, and acts like a feminist but shows no signs of being a true activists for women and their rights. Rank: D-
Hate this guy, it’s just simple as that. Idolaf is a stuck-up jerk who seems to harass the player if they don’t agree with his ways or even agree that the Battle-Born family are good people. Rank: D-
Rank: D-
I have no problem with Flutterscotches in general, it’s just the boring and bland WHITE Flutterscotch. This little piñata is easily one of the most forgettable in the Viva Piñata franchise, and serves as my least favorite overall. However, their cute little faces don’t deserve the F rank. Rank: D
Both annoying and pointless, Nazeem is known to be one, if not, then the worst Skyrim character of all-time. He’s basically a stuck-up individual who believes himself to be of higher status that anyone. There is a reason why people fans of the games despise him, and the origin of several Skyrim-related memes. Rank: D
Mephiles may seem like a cool and mysterious character, but he’s literally just a fragment of Solaris. There is nothing I like about him, nor would I like to see him return. He basically spends the whole game trying to trick everyone and kills Sonic last minute? Oh, okay, then. Rank: D
As much as I love SEGA Heroes, Dremagen has to be one of my least favorite villains altogether. She has little-to-no originality, but her outfit and appearance are kind of intimidating. We only ever got to see her at the end of SEGA Heroes and during special boss events, but that’s it. And her always saying “fools” was just cringe, no? Rank: D
