    Off the top of my head I have to say Carver and Bloody Mary from Telltale's Walking Dead and Wolf Among Us respectively. Both excels in making you hate the character so much you're just counting down the hours to their eventual demise.

    I'm having trouble thinking of anyone who falls on the worst side, so I'll give a blanket answer of forgettable.

    As simple as the game was Galleon was one of the best sympathetic villains in the genre, from Lunar

    Least enjoyed villains are any ambiguous super evil entity of plot convenience. Sometimes they work but rarely and it's usually super lazy writing. Unless you're truly going for ancient cthulu monster. Which they rarely are

    "Ah, yes. My original form has
    a special place in my heart."

    recall you having one."

    ExDeath might be the best villain.

    REVOLVER OCELOT!

    How can I forget the late great Revolver Ocelot?

    "Six bullets. More than enough to kill anything that moves."

    See? He gets it.
