Lampshaded by [[IFightForTheStrongestSide Sheeva]], who outright tells Joker that his evil alone is enough to unite all the realms against him, which should be impossible.

** Preceptor Seluvis is a more minor example, as he's far less infamous than the above two; however, everyone who knows the man hates his guts -- which is understandable, as his magic specialty is centered around turning humans into his puppets (a fate so horrible, the narrative even gives ''Dung Eater'' a modicum of sympathy if [[AssholeVictim you inflict it on him]]), and he's heavily implied to [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil make sexual use of them]]. Ranni only keeps him around because his puppetry magic was absolutely necessary for her plans, and the minute he [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness outlives his usefulness) (or if she learns of his plans to make ''her'' a puppet), she kills him off.

** The Dung Eater. Even the ''narrator'' in the game's opening despises him, as the player's very first introduction to him is seeing him being hung & stoned in the game's opening with the narrator essentially spitting out the phrase "[[MemeticMutation loathsome Dung Eater]]". You eventually learn why; he's a SerialKiller infamous for routinely DesecratingTheDead in [[ILoveTheDead a manner so vile]] [[AndIMustScream the souls of his victims can't reincarnate or move on]]. Which [[AxCrazy is exactly his goal]]. In fact, the player's very first encounter with him is him threatening to do the same to them [[HateSink leaving very few inclined to actually do his questline and not just kill him on sight at the earliest opportunity]].

* ''VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriorsThreeHopes'' reveals that pretty much ''everyone'' from the Empire (and even some outside it) finds Count Varley to be annoying at best. Edelgard and Hubert only [[CantKillYouStillNeedYou keep him alive]] because they need a new bishop for the Southern Church. When Bernadetta asks if her father got arrested, Edelgard even replies, "Unfortunately not." Hubert treats it as a mild inconvenience at worst if [[spoiler:Count Varley gets killed off]] in the final chapter of ''Scarlet Blaze''. Bernadetta obviously dislikes him due to [[AbusiveParents his treatment of her]]. And finally, in the ''Azure Gleam'' route, Gustave (who is quite religious) notes that he's only heard bad things about both Count Varley and his religious teachings.

Freudia did some investigation after her second defeat by her childhood friend and not only confirmed her suspicions of Iris but also discovered that she turned out much more than she could've imagined.

** Shabriri is described as "the most reviled man in history". Consider everything about the Dung Eater, and then realize that this guy is considered even ''worse''.

** Of all the characters in the MK roster, though, '''[[ZeroPercentApprovalRating nobody]], (and by that, we mean ''ABSOLUTELY NOBODY'')''' likes Frost, who unlike The Joker, (who despite being absolutely loathsome, he manages to balance some of that out with his EvilIsCool and LaughablyEvil qualities), [[HateSink lacks all aspects]] to make her even a LoveToHate character at best. To elaborate, she's a [[PsychopathicManchild petulant, psychopathic womanchild]] who wants to [[OmnicidalManiac destroy the universe]] completely [[EvilIsPetty out of spite]], demands everyone to worship her and/or [[AttentionWhore give her attention]], [[UnwillingRoboticization has turned countless innocent people into cyborgs]] and even wants to [[TheStarscream usurp]] the BigBad herself, [[TimeMaster Kronika]]. It says something when even the vilest characters (including the [[CompleteMonster completely, utterly, iredeemably evil ones]]) in the game (including Shang Tsung, Kano, Shao Kahn and ''even Kronika'') [[EvenEvilHasStandards hate her guts]] alongside all heroic kharacters, referring to her as a bratty whiner and [[KarmicButtMonkey treating her like an absolute joke]], which makes performing all Fatalities on her [[CatharsisFactor absolutely satisfying and deviously rewarding]].

Added DiffLines:

HatedByAll in VideoGames.
----
* ''VideoGame/AceCombat7SkiesUnknown'': Nobody has a good opinion of Colonel [=McKinsey=]. He’s a [[DirtyCoward cowardly]], and [[TheNeidermeyer abusive]] GloryHound, who constantly badmouths the Spare Squadron, and hoards their accomplishments for himself in the hopes that he’ll be transferred to a desk job. AWACS Bandog doesn’t like him either and will react with a deadpan response to his plane getting shot down by either the Eruseans or Trigger. Even Osea High Command doesn’t like [=McKinsey=], for instead of giving him a desk job, [[LaserGuidedKarma they send him to the frontlines]] thanks to the accomplishments that he hoarded from Spare Squadron.
* ''VideoGame/AnnabelleRPGMaker'': With the sole exception of his wife, Melissa, and [[spoiler:his brainwashed minions in ''Exorcism'']], everyone who knows Jason Sunray hates his guts. His daughter Annabelle despises him for molesting her, Melody Moonlight hates him for trying to separate her from her best friend, Tiffany Moonlight hates him for [[spoiler:stealing her job, the orphans of The Church hate him for how he abuses them and tells them it's their fault, Father Martin despises being forced to do his dirty work]], and other people who've heard of what he did to his daughter openly call him a monster.
* ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries'':
** The Riddler is such a {{narcissist}}ic KnowNothingKnowItAll that no one, including other villains or his own henchman, can stand him. About the only person to show any sort of affection for him is DirtyCop JT Wicker, and that's mostly out of pity.
** Everyone in ''Videogame/BatmanArkhamKnight'' hates Professor Pyg. Batman openly tells him, "You've got problems, Valentin", the GCPD express disgust for him the instant his crimes land on their radar, and once he's in the lockup, [[EvenEvilHasStandards the other criminals want absolutely nothing to do with him]]. He even creeps out [[spoiler:the ''Joker hallucination'']]. Given [[BodyHorror the things Pyg does to people]], it's understandable.
* ''VideoGame/Borderlands2'':
** Claptrap, for the most part, is disliked by everybody due to how annoying they find him to the point where nobody wants to even attend [[OnePersonBirthdayParty his birthday party]].
** Handsome Jack as it turns out is Hated by basically everyone in Pandora who is not working for him in Hyperion with nearly every single character in the game showing resentment towards him for his wicked behavior. Even claptrap’s joins in on hating Handsome Jack and Angel, his own daughter uses her final words to curse him upon death. Even some of the employees who once worked for him such as Rhys and Timothy grew to resent him later on.
* ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'': Yuuki Terumi is absolutely despised by virtually every character in-universe, many of whom want him dead. As it turns out, Terumi goes out of his way to ''cultivate'' this approval rating, partially because his very existence is tied to ThePowerOfHate, and partially just because [[ForTheEvulz he likes being a dick]].
* ''VideoGame/BugFables'': [[BigBad The Wasp King]] is loathed and feared by all, and more than a few wasps hate him for being a tyrannical madman. [[spoiler:Even his fanatically loyal troops are brainwashed into serving him, and once he dies and they go back to their old selves, none of them are sad to see him go.]]
* ''No one'' in ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'''s [[WretchedHive Night City]] likes [[TheMafiya the Scavengers]], and given their habit of [[OrganTheft stripping people of both their biological and cybernetic parts for sale on the black market]], it's very little wonder. [[TheApunkalypse The Wraiths]] are almost as bad, as they consist entirely of Nomads exiled for the most horrific offenses and terrorize the surrounding wastelands.
* ''VideoGame/EldenRing'':
** The Dung Eater. Even the ''narrator'' in the game's opening despises him, as the player's very first introduction to him is seeing him being hung & stoned in the game's opening with the narrator essentially spitting out the phrase "[[MemeticMutation loathsome Dung Eater]]". You eventually learn why; he's a SerialKiller infamous for routinely DesecratingTheDead in [[ILoveTheDead a manner so vile]] [[AndIMustScream the souls of his victims can't reincarnate or move on]]. Which [[AxCrazy is exactly his goal]]. In fact, the player's very first encounter with him is him threatening to do the same to them [[HateSink leaving very few inclined to actually do his questline and not just kill him on sight at the earliest opportunity]].
** Shabriri is described as "the most reviled man in history". Consider everything about the Dung Eater, and then realize that this guy is considered even ''worse''. Shabriri is the champion of the Three Fingers and the Frenzied Flame, whose goal is to "let chaos take the world" by overthrowing the Golden Order. There is even a talisman you can obtain called "Shabriri's Woe", the only effect of which is to make all enemies even more aggressive towards you. ''Literally'' everyone and everything you can encounter, from people to animals to ''plants'', hates him so much that just carrying around a little trinket in the image of his face makes them want to kill you even more than they already did.
** Preceptor Selvis is a more minor example, as he's far less infamous than the above two; however, everyone who knows the man hates his guts- which is understandable, as his magic specialty is centered around turning humans into his puppets (a fate so horrible, the narrative even gives ''Dung Eater'' a modicum of sympathy if [[KickTheSonOfABitch you inflict it on him]]), and he's heavily implied to [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil make sexual use of them]]. Ranni only keeps him around because his puppetry magic was absolutely necessary for her plans, and the minute she doesn't (and when she learns of his plans to make ''her'' a puppet), she kills him off.
** Most of the Demigods, even the really evil ones like Mohg and Rykard, were charismatic leaders who inspired UndyingLoyalty from their men. And then there's Godrick, the ButtMonkey of his family who inspires nothing but loathing and scorn for his weakness and habit of dismembering people to make himself stronger. Not even his servants like him.
* ''VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriorsThreeHopes'' reveals that pretty much ''everyone'' from the Empire (and even some outside it) finds Count Varley to be annoying at best. Edelgard and Hubert only [[CantKillYouStillNeedYou keep him alive]] because they need a new bishop for the Southern Church. When Bernadetta asks if her father got arrested, Edelgard even replies, "Unfortunately not." Hubert treats it as a mild inconvenience at worst if [[spoiler:Count Varley gets killed off]] in the final chapter of ''Scarlet Blaze''. Bernadetta obviously dislikes him due to [[AbusiveParents his treatment of her]]. And finally, in the ''Azure Gleam'' route, Gustave (who is quite religious) notes that he's only heard bad things about both Count Varley and his religious teachings.
* ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'':
** [[Characters/FiveNightsAtFreddysWilliamAfton William Afton]] is despised by nearly every character in the series: the Cassette Man (or Henry) for killing his daughter and his horrific experiments; the Puppet who brought the animatronics to life as vengeance for her death; even his own son Michael Afton went after him when he tricked him into getting scooped and bodyjacked. The only one who seemed to care for him was his daughter Elizabeth, but the events of ''Pizzeria Simulator'' imply that he was grooming her into becoming a killer.
** In ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysSecurityBreach'', children are terrified of the Daycare Attendant. Sun is much too eager to play and doesn't seem to understand that grabbing and forcefully dragging children around is a bad thing; Moon meanwhile is an overly antagonistic jerk who traumatizes children who stay up past their bedtime.
* ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'': Kratos gets this, in part due to the various atrocities he committed under Ares; in the first game, one character is actually more terrified of Kratos than of the monsters attacking him and openly states he would rather die than let Kratos save him. After becoming the new God of War, it's stated that all of the other Olympians despised Kratos and refused to accept him. Fear of being rejected for his atrocities is what initially led to Kratos hiding his past from his son Atreus.
* ''VideoGame/Hitman2016'':
** Claus Hugo Strandberg, the primary target of "A Gilded Cage", is not just hated by the entirety of Morocco for stealing billions of dollars from them, but he's one of the most hated men in the world ''at present''. The Swedish consulate workers are disgusted by him refuging there, the masseur doesn't want to go near him, and his ''own daughter'' (who he conned out of her inheritance) is part of the protest mob outside the consulate. [[spoiler:Even his employer, [[TheIlluminati Providence]], intends to have Strandberg killed during his evacuation and have already taken the money he stole for himself back.]]
** Wen T'sai, the Food Critic. If you amplified every detestable aspect of Strandberg, then you'd be about half-way there to his personality. At least Strandberg ''tries'' to be charming to people, but this guy? He complains about a waiters aftershave ruining the restaurant atmosphere, the chef in the kitchen ''despises him'' and wishes he'd choke on his tie, and Wen constantly critiques the food without eating it! He's an extremely petty shell of a man who can get enraged really easily over slights people may not even be able to control. At least Gabriel Santos, another Elusive Target that ran before him that was also horrible to his own staff, is LaughablyEvil by being a LargeHam parody of Gordon Ramsay (and ''[[HorrifyingTheHorror even Santos]]'' wants nothing to do with this guy, saying the mere sight of him in his restaurant could make him, in his own words; [[BringMyBrownPants "F***ING S**T MYSELF"]]). Here, Wen has no redeeming qualities to speak of, and sounds like an insufferable bastard if you listen to his attacks on the staff for even a minute, making it all the more satisfying for the player to eliminate him.
* ''VideoGame/HogwartsLegacy'' has DeanBitterman Phineas Black, a lazy ObstructiveBureaucrat whose EstablishingCharacterMoment is cancelling the year's [[FictionalSport Quidditch]] season for no real reason. The students openly hate and fear him, the professors have obvious disdain for him, and even the ''enchanted gargoyles'' openly insult him to anyone passing by. Even his own descendant Sirius Black in ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheOrderOfThePhoenix'' calls him the worst headmaster the school ever had (until [[EvilPrincipal Dolores Umbridge]] came along shortly after).
* ''VideoGame/HypnospaceOutlaw'': Zane is disliked by every member of Teentopia for being a massive bully. He does have an admirer in the form of his girlfriend, but taking a quick look at her headband ID reveals that she is a sockpuppet account created by Zane to make it seem like he's cooler than he actually is.
* ''Franchise/{{Injustice}}'':
** The Joker.
*** He's the first villain Superman kills, and for years, only [[MadLove Harley Quinn]] is sad he's gone. Tellingly, everyone else who objects to his murder is more concerned about Superman killing someone than the man he killed. Even in-universe, Damian Wayne and most of Gotham [[AndThereWasMuchRejoicing are glad he's dead]]. Hell, even Harley began to hate and move on from him to create her own destiny.
*** Years after his death, he's still in this territory. Clearly ''nobody'', not even villains like Gorilla Grodd and Brainiac, hold a good opinion of him. The fact that he's indirectly responsible for the mess in the ''Injustice''-verse doesn't help either. Heck, even his ex-moll Harley has come to despise him. '''Darkseid''', the ultimate BigBad of the whole DC universe, sees him as what he is as well.
** Everyone who had ties to the [[Characters/InjusticeOneEarthRegime Regime]] has shades of this, but it's especially notable for a character like [[AllLovingHero Wonder Woman]]. Her LadyMacbeth relationship with Superman and her actions in the Regime have left her exiled and disgraced from Themyscira, forced into hiding and hunted by her former allies in the Justice League, and worst of all, having her failures rubbed in her face by Cheetah and Harley. In turn, Diana is so world-weary and bitter that she's simply stopped caring about what other people think of her besides Superman. [[spoiler:It seems she's very sensitive about him seeing her in a bad light.]]
** Even Wonder Woman is nothing compared to Damian Wayne, who is easily the most obnoxious and loathsome character in the game's roster. Every character either despises him or only slightly tolerates him but still finds him awful, which includes his father and all of his Regime allies.
* ''VideoGame/Jak3'': It's made clear that Count Veger is very much despised by the main cast for turning the public against Jak for his alliance with [[FatBastard Krew]] (which is true) and destroying the Haven Palace (which is false), leading to his exile at the game's beginning. Karma bites him hard when Jak returns and reveals to Ashelin and the Freedom League that Veger attacked the palace, causing everyone to side with Jak and denounce Veger as a traitor, with Ashelin disvolving his council and banish him from the government in disgrace.
* ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'': By the end of the Dark Seeker Saga, everyone except for Master Eraqus, despises Xehanort. It’s likely that Xehanort himself saw himself as this.
* ''VideoGame/LiveALive'': [[spoiler:By the end of the Middle Ages chapter, [[TheHero Oersted]] became loathed by everyone, with the townsfolk that used to adore him now fearing and hating him as the Lord of Dark after he was tricked into killing the king, his friends Hasshe and Uranus dead, the former succumbing to plague and the latter sacrificing himself to free Oersted, his best friend Streibough revealed to be the orchestrator behind his tragedies and [[HiddenDisdainReveal revealed to have always loathed Oersted for overshadowing him in the past]], Princess Alethea was swayed by Streibough's "sob story" and accused Oersted of ruining Streibough's life (as opposed to the other way around) and commited suicide to be TogetherInDeath with him. In the end, this led to him [[MaddenIntoMisanthropy giving up on humanity]] and deciding to [[ThenLetMeBeEvil embrace what everyone saw him as]]: a demon, and became the new Lord of Dark.]]
* ''VideoGame/MeatBoy'': [[BigBad Dr. Fetus]] is introduced with the caption "Nobody loves Dr. Fetus." [[MisanthropeSupreme He reciprocates.]]
* ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' has Otacon's father Huey Emmerich, a MadScientist DirtyCoward with a severe case of ChronicBackstabbingDisorder that led him to be despised by everyone he ever worked with [[EvenEvilHasStandards including monsters like Skull Face]]. His own son even grew to despise him after learning of his crimes, on top of his attempt on the life of Otacon's stepsister.
* ''Franchise/MortalKombat'':
** Shang Tsung has the dubious honor of being the single most disliked and distrusted character in the entire ''11'' roster, and perhaps the [[ExaggeratedTrope entire]] ''series.'' Even when compared to Frost and Kano, the former being given certain pity and the latter having his clan, Shang Tsung has absolutely no friends and is viewed with scorn and wariness by just about every character.
** Quan Chi's Outworld allies, including Shao Kahn and Shang Tsung, distrust and despise him, while his allies in the Netherrealm aren't fond of him either. Scorpion, Drahmin, and Moloch want to kill him for his treachery, Noob Saibot feigns loyalty and secretly wants to overthrow him, and Shinnok hardly acknowledges his sacrifice in ''[[VideoGame/MortalKombatX Mortal Kombat X]]''. Only the Netherrealm Revenants are loyal to him and that's only because they're under his influence.
** By the time of the eleventh game, it's expressed through character banter that ''no one,'' [[EvenEvilHasStandards not even the worst villains]], trust or like Kano.
** D'Vorah's only real allies outside the Kytinn seem to be Kronika-aligned warriors, and even they look down on her (Cetrion), or have reason to be absolutely furious with her (Shao Kahn). The heroic characters don't view her any more favorably themselves, with Kotal Kahn even mentioning [[ArchEnemy Mileena]] pisses him off less than her.
** ''VideoGame/MortalKombat11'': The Joker is a DLC for the game, and his character intros show that pretty much everyone in the MK universe (even the likes of Shao Kahn) despises him greatly.
** Of all the characters in the MK roster, though, '''[[ZeroPercentApprovalRating nobody]], (and by that, we mean ''ABSOLUTELY NOBODY'')''' likes Frost, who unlike The Joker, (who despite being absolutely loathsome, he manages to balance some of that out with his EvilIsCool and LaughablyEvil qualities), [[HateSink lacks all aspects]] to make her even a LoveToHate character at best. To elaborate, she's a [[PsychopathicManchild petulant, psychopathic womanchild]] who wants to [[OmnicidalManiac destroy the universe]] completely [[EvilIsPetty out of spite]], demands everyone to worship her and/or [[AttentionWhore give her attention]], [[UnwillingRoboticization has turned countless innocent people into cyborgs]] and even wants to [[TheStarscream usurp]] the BigBad herself, [[TimeMaster Kronika]]. It says something when even the vilest characters (including the [[CompleteMonster completely, utterly, iredeemably evil ones]]) in the game (including Shang Tsung, Kano, Shao Kahn and ''even Kronika'') [[EvenEvilHasStandards hate her guts]] alongside all heroic kharacters, referring to her as a bratty whiner and [[KarmicButtMonkey treating her like an absolute joke]], which makes performing all Fatalities on her [[CatharsisFactor absolutely satisfying and deviously rewarding]].
* ''VideoGame/Postal2'' has a difficulty setting called They Hate Me. If the game is played on this difficulty, every single NPC in the game will have HardCodedHostility towards [[PlayerCharacter The Postal Dude]] and will try to kill him on sight.
* ''VideoGame/Persona5'': After being framed by [[CorruptPolitician Shido]] for assault, Joker starts the game with pretty much everyone wanting nothing to do with him due to his "record": fellow students, teachers, police officers, his legal guardian in Tokyo, even his ''parents''. In fact, he only makes his first friend after they're both nearly killed in the [[MentalWorld collective unconscious]].
** The Phantom Thieves, as a group, have a dynamic, in-universe approval rating on their fansite that updates each day. [[spoiler:By the time you catch up to the present, it gets ''dangerously'' close to literally being at 0%.]]
* ''VideoGame/ProfessorLaytonVsPhoenixWrightAceAttorney'': Emeer Punchenbaug is met with amusement at best and hatred at worst for being an arrogant, annoying old man who spends most of his time drinking and complicating trials with his mere presence. Many of his interactions with other characters involve them taking the piss out of him.
* ''VideoGame/{{Psychonauts}}'': Vernon Tripe is disliked by the other kids because he's [[TheBore the most annoying kid at camp]], to the point where none of the kids have commented anything on his CharacterBlog. Even Nils, who is disliked by virtue of being a [[DirtyKid perverted]] CasanovaWannabe, is somewhat liked by his on-and-off girlfriend Elka. Vernon doesn't really seem to notice the fact that he is disliked, however.
* In ''Videogame/RedDeadRedemptionII'', practically everyone hates Micah Bell since he's a psychopath who needlessly antagonizes others and revels in unnecessary violence. The only reason he sticks around aside from PlotArmor is the fact that he manages to worm his way into gang leader Dutch's favor simply by being a YesMan towards an egomaniac.
* ''VideoGame/{{Rosenkreuzstilette}}'' series: The true BigBad [[spoiler:Iris Zepperin quickly shoots herself way up to this status once she [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness kills her own father after he spends his use to her plans]], and reveals that she started RKS's recent conflict with the Empire ForTheEvulz. Since then, the main characters have never had a very good opinion of her. Grolla didn't have to go too far in her own side-story to see for herself how nasty Iris truly is, and, according to Trauare, Zorne never liked Iris anyway despite her being her sister. Her character is defined as having [[AGodAmI a god complex]] and [[SmugSuper therefore being so arrogant about her immense power that she claims she can't be compared to anyone else]]. Iris returns in ''Rosenkreuzstilette Freudenstachel'', where she brainwashes the protagonist of the first game, Spiritia, and forces her and Freudia or Pamela to fight to the death against each other.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Skyrim}}'': Absolutely nobody likes the Thalmor, the High Elf [[ANaziByAnyOtherName fascists]] that weakened the Empire, made the worship of Talos illegal, and arrest and execute Nords on a whim [[spoiler:in addition to pursuing TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt]]. If you kill a Thalmor in an Imperial city, you'll only receive a small bounty for assault. If you kill a Thalmor in a Stormcloak city, the guards will place bets on how painfully you kill them.
* ''VideoGame/SlyCooperThievesInTime'': [[BitchInSheepsClothing Penelope]] sells out the Cooper Gang to Le Paradox, and has full intentions of doing the same to him when given the chance, all out of [[AmbitionIsEvil ambition]] and [[DrivenByEnvy jealousy]]. Her exposure leaves Penelope the most hated villain in Cooper history, with the main trio of Sly, Bentley, and Murray wanting to kill her for exploiting them. Le Paradox abandons her in the past for treachery.
* ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'': The Sith Emperor becomes this to both the Republic and the Sith Empire. When its revealed his ultimate goal is the devour all life in the galaxy, both sides will temporarily put aside their fighting to stop him.
* ''VideoGame/ThemsFightinHerds'': Paprika is met with fear, confusion, or anger by nearly all of the other characters, including her own clan. [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom With]] [[LoveFreak good]] [[AndCallHimGeorge reason.]] Though Paprika herself is completely oblivious to it.
** Oleander is a bit more downplayed, as it's [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer only her clan that shuns her due to dabbling into forbidden dark magic.]] But she still often gets on other character's bad sides by just being [[InsufferableGenius arrogant and a showoff.]]
* ''VideoGame/TransformersDevastation'': All of the Decepticons have a universally negative opinion on Starscream, and even the Autobots poke fun at him, including [[NotSoAboveItAll Optimus himself]].
-->'''Optimus Prime:''' Megatron was right. You really ARE useless, Starscream.
* ''VideoGame/TransformersFallOfCybertron'': By the end of the game, Starscream is not only seen as an enemy by the Autobots, but the only Decepticons that might have had any faith in him as a leader were either killed by Megatron or abandoned him when they saw how much of a coward he was. Even Teletraan I doesn't like him, as one of its "Goodbye" phrases to the Combaticons is "You are unlikely to survive Starscream's leadership."
* ''VideoGame/TrialsOfMana'': While Kevin is amused by Domperi's antics and Riesz tolerates him, even they have limits to what they can endure from his {{troll}}ing. The other party members hate his guts, especially Charlotte.
* ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'': Absolutely every single character who knows of the existence of [[spoiler:Zanza]] regards him as completely and utterly evil and without a single redeeming quality. Not even his subjects try to defend him: they sidestep the issue altogether or are planning to stab him in the back the moment he looks the other way.
