Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.

I should not need to explain this one.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Villains/antagonists or otherwise.

I’ve been watching some Fable 3 lets plays and was reminded of how much I absolutely hated Reaver. You can tell Lionhead was really going for someone that you would “love to hate,” but every scene with him in it is miserable. Absolutely ridiculous that you can’t kill him.

For a character from an actually well written video game, Eric in Tony Hawk’s Underground. Hitting the last line in the game and watching your character punch him out in a cutscene afterwards is extremely cathartic.

Any self-exploding enemies immediately get on the BS list but these dudes in particular.

Edit: Game is Dark Souls 2

There's a hateable mob in every souls game

DeS: anything that flies

DS: Dragon legs and crawling giant skeletons

DS2: Those guys. Also pony plow town.

BB: Winter lanterns and shark giants

DS3: prison guards and DLC crow Knights.

Sekiro: Anything that causes terror status

ER: Furnace golems, bleed dogs, omens

Forget what I said, there's multiple hateable mobs in every souls game.
