The only person the magic infusion actually worked on was Celes when she was a baby. Asuming that Kefka willingly went up to try out some powers and them getting to the point that they felt safe enough to infuse a baby with magic, .. well his mind was prolly in the can and not coming back.
The experimentations basically kick started his already insane mind. Now whether or not he would have done everything he did in the game -without- infused magic is really up to you, but he did state at the end of the game that he wanted to make the world a monument to nonexistant and basically how he hated (and didn't understand, shown by questioning the party of their beliefs) how people could live a life knowing they were going to die, how humanity was pointless and the only way to really give a point is for nothing to be there.
Of course! Then since he never reveals his issues til the VERY end, it can be argued that basically everything he had done (basically everything before gaining the power of the Goddesses) he did on his own will and for the lulz, and it wasn't until he gained ultimate power that he -truly- lost the very very very little bit that was left of his mind. It was clear though that from the beginning he was after the ultimate power, but never clear why until the VERY end. First he wants it and gets it and uses it for world domination and for his own entertainment, then the powerlust turns him to the point of just destroying everything because... well in his mind ridding humans of their flaws by destroying human kind is the only way for humans to serve a purpose. Essentially he's doing what he feels to be true and right, regardless of what morals might say.
He's complicated and I love him. <3
