It would have been a bit poetic if Stefano had turned the camera on himself at the end there, capturing the moment of his death as he did with countless others.
The Dung Defender from Hollow Knight. You can just hear how much fun he’s having while you fight him! And after you fight him, he talks about how it’s the most fun he’s had in years.
@@1stSamiurai Well The Ship of Thesseus is a thought experiment.

His whole arc is so well done. You go from finding him annoying, to genuinely hating him, then reveling in your superiority over him, then finally feeling... actually kinda bad for him after a certain point (not gonna spoil it for anyone). Poor guy.
Vaas is always having fun in far cry 3 , even when you kill him in a semi hallucination. If I have to listen to the definition of insanity one more time from him, I'll go insane.
The best thing about that quote is even if you say yes, you've already heard it and he says it again anyway, it doesn't take away from his message, like there's an inevitability to insanity.
I've always felt that Metatton from Undertale was having way too much fun throughout the whole encounter and particularly the boss fight, in which you get quizzed, play minigames and try to help the murderous robot score massive ratings on his TV show. Also, in a similar vein, Jevil, the secret boss from spiritual sequel Deltarune, who is certain that you escaped your cage (i.e. the outside) in order to play a game. It's a simple game; if your HP reaches 0, you lose! Such fun :)
How are you the only one to comment appreciation to it in the like first 100+ replies it was f*cking great! It reminded me of that song I got no more f*cks to give
Hades always seemed to be having a little more fun than is to be realistically expected from the God of the Dead whose plans now bear an oddly Keyblade-shaped spanner in their workings... never did quite work out where that one came from... total mystery...
One boss who comes to mind who’s having too much fun is Deadpool from “ Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions “ Seriously his whole section is his live t.v. show and during the fight he’s clearly having the time of his life.
since Its kinda relevant to this video Majima is WAYYYYY cooler than Shimano and just sticking to the yakuza series Kuze is cooler than Dojima Someya is cooler than Sugai Watase and Katsuya are cooler that their boss the Chairmen of the Omi alliance
I don't know if I'd call that a boss. He doesn't fight you directly. Even when you do meet him face to face fighting him is optional, and he goes down about as easily as other teleporting splicers.
@@kyuubinaruto17 I'd argue that bosses aren't only about physical fights anymore. Besides Bibi Love doesn't fight and she's on the list. Also Professor Nakayama doesn't even /slightly/ fight you and he was on a list recently too.
Goro Majima is definitely the funnest character I have ever seen in a video game. He endears himself to the audience fairly quickly. His "Kiirryyuuu-Chan" is definitely iconic. He has the most appropriate title as The Mad Dog of Shimano.
Kefka from Final Fantasy 6. He's laughing a lot and jumping around in various moments of the game. Killing people in large quantities and have loads of fun doing it. And in Dissidia Duodecim you see he's enjoying being a soldier of Chaos, the God of Darkness. Torturing Terra, laughing when Kuja gets killed and messing with the soldiers of Cosmos, the goddess of light.
@@Amaritudine Oh totally. I mean, he did try to squish Celes with a four ton weight but I have the feeling that somewhere in his mind he envisioned a more Looney Toons outcome than actual murder.
Somehow I forgot about the attempted giant weight homicide. So I guess Ultros *does* go in for a spot of carnage now and then too. Just occasionally, as a treat.
I love it when Andy talks about the Yakuza series! You can hear his passion and love for the games in his voice... Also I'm a little biased because Majima is my fave.
Xigbar from the Kingdom Hearts series, specifically his Kingdom Hearts 2 boss battle, should have been on this list imo. From standing upside down, to warping around, to shifting the battlefield, all while taunting you, it was obvious to me he was having fun.
Achilles/Patroclus is still the better ship, since they proved that love wins, even if death won in the first round. Also, it screwed the notorious "Bury Your Gays" trope, so...

And when he goes giant and drops a giant sword on the field, his command isn't "DIE!" or "PERISH." It's "REJOICE." And his line upon dying isn't a curse at you or lamenting his fate, it's a cheer about how memorable it was - as if even in defeat, he enjoys the fight because it happened.
Well I'm glad Theseus is having a great time, because I never did each and every time I had to do that fight. So to contradict, it's actually very easy to get mad at him because he's having fun, and I'm not.
Ornstein doesn't like Smough but respects him as comrades in the service of the Royal Family of Anor Londo, calmly laying a hand on him to absorb his power. Smough is completely ambivalent and will smash Ornstein while he's trying to get back up after falling.
Very true. But it’s probably because people would make the argument that as a robot she can’t feel true emotions but…. ITS CLEAR THE ONE EMOTION SHE KNOWS IS BLOODLUST
No Photoshop Flowey? His entire premise is that he has so much fun torturing you and making sure your only escape is to give up on the game entirely, laughing maniacally with his new power the entire time
Genuinely thought Nishitani would survive getting shot by that cop because of how crazy he is and the fact that his death happens offscreen. I wanted him to power through and show up later with a limp.
I must be in the minority, because smashing Theseus into the floor for being an insufferable tool is my favourite part of Hades. Asterius is chill though. I dig his vibe.
Same here. I hate Theseus. Last time I had toblisten to his shit talk, I was on a break at work and actually yelled at my Switch about not taking his crap in my house. One of my managers was very confused. Lmao
So I've previously suggested prison cells that weren't up to the task, but I'm now thinking about this list. I'm really surprised Baldur from God of War 4 didn't get a mention. First time round, he's testing your skills, the second time, he's mocking you and turning your son against you, the final time, he LOVES that he can feel things again.
ah Theseus, conqueror of the Labyrinth, slayer of the Minotaur, ditcher of his fiancée on a deserted island....planned kidnapper of a preteen Helen of Troy.....accomplice to the attempted kidnapping of Hade's wife..... yeah he often banks on people to stop reading his resume at the minotaur part

My thoughts exactly. All the while he’s trying to talk to Kos when he pretty much knows she’s dead. Micolash just out there being a fuckin’ laundry basket-wearing weirdo.
Any list of bad guys having more fun is incomplete without Pagan Min. He invites you to dinner, and to go ride in a helicopter with him to do exactly what you are there to do, and when those are turned down he keeps in touch with cheery calls throughout the game. "Zippered meat pockets, check" is one of the best lines in gaming.
"Get a clue, clowny. He's got no sense of humor. He wouldn't know a good joke if it bit him in the cape. Not that you ever had a good joke. I mean, joy buzzers, squirting flowers - lame. Where's the A material? Make a face, drop your pants, something! You know what? I'll laugh. But only because you're kinda pathetic. Hehehehe..." "That isn't funny..." "What? I thought you wanted Batman to laugh!" *"YOU'RE NOT BATMAN!"*
The Dung Defender from Hollow Knight comes to mind. You run across him in one of the most irritating areas in the game, and right from the start, even before you fight him, he's yelling, laughing, and generally having a good time. Then you actually fight him, and, again, the entire fight he's laughing and bouncing around like he's not in the middle of a massive plague. White Defender acts basically the same way, too, just not in literal bug sewage.
Can we just get Jane to play through any Bioware game as she would naturally and see what she does? I would love that as like a live stream series! (Jane could RP as anyone! The romances are endless!) Maybe when DA4 or the ME trilogy remaster comes out we can get that ball rolling?
@@Yuukichan1888 no, it's not wrong at all! I don't know the developer or the character you mentioned, but maybe otome games or visual novels may be up your alley if you enjoy the romance/ character focused aspect of bioware games? The Arcana, Fictif and Lovestruck are all visual novel apps (they do have paid choices and a content unlock clock so be warned) but maybe those may be up your alley in the mean time?
@@Yuukichan1888 oh neat! The name Solaire rang a bell but I couldn't place it. But yes, I wholeheartedly agree with you, any bloodborne/sekiro character should have a romance function!
I come out, in the mornin' light The hero says "I here to fight!" Oh hero dear, you're quite the fortunate one And bosses, they wanna have fun Oh bosses just wanna have fun (I'm so sorry)
I think Ripper Roo from the Crash Bandicoot games qualifies for this list. No matter what you dish at him, he's always laughing joyously (or psychotically, depending on who you ask).
Honorable mention: Baldur from god of war He's been deprived of any and all feeling for so long he fully revels in it when Kratos beats him to a pulp at the end of the game
I’m currently trying to finish the stuff in Hades post-game, and one time I tried to do a run where the bosses had extra bonuses. Theseus got a fancy golden helmet and chariot and god bless his cotton socks he was so excited. 😂😂
To be honest I enjoyed Stefano Valentini's performance as a villain and he killed it. Literally. He's awesome if anything and is indeed an interesting case for mental instability
I think Ardyn from Final Fantasy 15 is a good candidate. He's constantly taunting the player and laughing. And if you play his DLC, he's having a great time smashing up Insomnia.
Having just started Resi 7 myself, I'm delighted to see Jack on the list. I'm super early in the game, so I haven't gotten to the garage fight yet. I'm almost as big a scaredy cat as Ellen, so I'm playing the game more to have a better appreciate of the set up with Resi 8 and all that. I love Jane shipping Theseus and Asterius. Stefano reminds me a lot of Cohen in BioShock with all the artwork and such.
The administrator from Evil within DLC the consequence. He was laughing at you the whole way during the game and while choking you during the final battle against him.
There is one boss missing on this list in my opinion. That is Zenos from ffxiv. When you finally meet him, he will greet you as if you are his long lost friend, and throughout his entire fight he mocks you and literally says how much fun he is having. At the end of the fight, he tells you that this has been the best moment of his life before somewhat emotionally committing self die.
I'd like to nominate Fontain from Bioshock. He spends the entire fight just amazed at how good he feels now that he is juiced up on Adam and Eve and wondering why he kept avoiding it for so long.
Could we do another video/zoom call about video game music? Its been too long since we heard you folk's ideas about good, annoying, or hype music in video games.
If there's a commentors edition you gotta mention Theseus again when you up the heat gage and he gets his dope golden chariot. He literally wheels around firing fireworks instead of fighting you half the time.
Everyone in RE7 is having a better time than Ethan Winters. Ethan Winters is having the worst day of his life.
Second worst imo after beating RE8 lol
So far.
This trend mostly continues in the next game, with the rather glaring exception of Moreau.
At least he finally has a break come Village.
"Dear diary, today was the WORST"

It seems Nishitani is "Don't Threaten Me With A Good Time" incarnate.

*"Kiryu Chan!"*
He did literally say that he was rock hard at the thought of getting to fight Majima properly when they were in the cell
"Champagne, coke, and gasoline
And most things in between..."

Well I'm glad Theseus is having a great time, because I never did each and every time I had to do that fight. So to contradict, it's actually very easy to get mad at him because he's having fun, and I'm not.
Augus from Asura's Wrath throughout his battle with the titular character it sounds like he's having a really great time fighting his former student.
Ornstein and Smough were having way more fun than me. They get to be with their bro, while I get my a** kicked.
Ornstein doesn't like Smough but respects him as comrades in the service of the Royal Family of Anor Londo, calmly laying a hand on him to absorb his power. Smough is completely ambivalent and will smash Ornstein while he's trying to get back up after falling.
Trust me, it's not hard to be mad at Theseus. At all.
Especially if he kills you despite your near perfect run through elysium
I am of the opionion that Fëanor is inspired by Theseus dickishness.
I died at the ship of Theseus joke
The Ship of Theseus joke made me laugh way more than it should have.
What about GLaDos from Portal? All she does is mock and belittle you throughout the game
Very true. But it’s probably because people would make the argument that as a robot she can’t feel true emotions but…. ITS CLEAR THE ONE EMOTION SHE KNOWS IS BLOODLUST
She even sings a little savage song at the end. She's definitely having a great time.
No Photoshop Flowey? His entire premise is that he has so much fun torturing you and making sure your only escape is to give up on the game entirely, laughing maniacally with his new power the entire time
Flowey's more tragic than he is having fun, though. I'm with the folks who are suggesting Mettaton for this instead.
What about Papyrus? He seemed really hyped to have finally found a human that he could capture
No Mr. Look Good and Have Fun Doing Everything, Dante himself?
Genuinely thought Nishitani would survive getting shot by that cop because of how crazy he is and the fact that his death happens offscreen. I wanted him to power through and show up later with a limp.
I must be in the minority, because smashing Theseus into the floor for being an insufferable tool is my favourite part of Hades. Asterius is chill though. I dig his vibe.
Theseus doesn't deserve Asterius as a best buddy.
Same here. I hate Theseus. Last time I had toblisten to his shit talk, I was on a break at work and actually yelled at my Switch about not taking his crap in my house. One of my managers was very confused. Lmao
Every time Andy just had to go "Ew" got me laughing.
Man, Mark Hamill as the Joker is just always great pure chef's kiss.
3:00 whomever captured that, not having brought Cerberus a rug or a ball, you're a *monster*
So I've previously suggested prison cells that weren't up to the task, but I'm now thinking about this list.
I'm really surprised Baldur from God of War 4 didn't get a mention. First time round, he's testing your skills, the second time, he's mocking you and turning your son against you, the final time, he LOVES that he can feel things again.
ah Theseus, conqueror of the Labyrinth, slayer of the Minotaur, ditcher of his fiancée on a deserted island....planned kidnapper of a preteen Helen of Troy.....accomplice to the attempted kidnapping of Hade's wife.....
yeah he often banks on people to stop reading his resume at the minotaur part
Don’t forget mass murderer after getting blackout drunk with a bunch of centaurs.
Unfortunately for him, I read his entire life story.
Also, did you know Pegasus wasn't actually rode by Hercules?
@@michaelandreipalon359 yeah i know, i also know he came out of Medusa's stump of a neck after Perseus cut off her head
Which honestly raises so many questions that I am not sure where to start asking
@@mrroboshadow And the say Japan and its anime are this "sophisticated"...
@@michaelandreipalon359 hey Greece may be weird but i never seen a Greek goddess with breasts bigger than her head
Theres just some weirdness that can never be overtaken
Having just played Evil Within 2. That guy on the cover of the video scared the fucking shit out of me
same that dude was really messed up.
Man, I REALLY miss you guys sitting in the chair throughout the video 😩
Can't wait for you all to get back to the studio 😁
Things seem different in England than the US, considering American TH-camrs started meeting live again almost a year ago.
@@rokeYouuer The U.S has plenty of the vaccine to go around, plus, there's been surprisingly little resistance to it considering how vocal the anti-vaxxers had been
Canada’s getting better with our vaccinations; I finally got my fist dose an hour an a half ago 😁👍
There's lots of videos from 2020 and early 2021 with the chair and even IRL interactions between them, that can't all be delayed footage.
@@alastorcorvus I've noticed that too... I really don't know if they're able to get together yet or not 🤔
Ghirahim is either enjoying it or having a seizure
Literally anything involving Undertale's Mettaton.
Sam from metal gear rising literally telling you to show him a good time
Micolash from Bloodborne was having a riot that whole time! Running around the arena, taunting you, laughing.... humming a tune.... etc.
My thoughts exactly. All the while he’s trying to talk to Kos when he pretty much knows she’s dead. Micolash just out there being a fuckin’ laundry basket-wearing weirdo.
Any list of bad guys having more fun is incomplete without Pagan Min. He invites you to dinner, and to go ride in a helicopter with him to do exactly what you are there to do, and when those are turned down he keeps in touch with cheery calls throughout the game. "Zippered meat pockets, check" is one of the best lines in gaming.
The best Batman vs Joker fight is from Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker.
"Get a clue, clowny. He's got no sense of humor. He wouldn't know a good joke if it bit him in the cape. Not that you ever had a good joke. I mean, joy buzzers, squirting flowers - lame. Where's the A material? Make a face, drop your pants, something!
You know what? I'll laugh. But only because you're kinda pathetic. Hehehehe..."
"That isn't funny..."
"What? I thought you wanted Batman to laugh!"
*"YOU'RE NOT BATMAN!"*
Love that movie, although the "censored" version is more better in my opinion.
Mz. Ruby from the sly cooper games! the whole boss fight is an elaborate dance number
Kefka? There's gotta be Kefka.
....
Where's Kefka??
Sigmascape 4.0, same place as always.
The Dung Defender from Hollow Knight comes to mind. You run across him in one of the most irritating areas in the game, and right from the start, even before you fight him, he's yelling, laughing, and generally having a good time. Then you actually fight him, and, again, the entire fight he's laughing and bouncing around like he's not in the middle of a massive plague. White Defender acts basically the same way, too, just not in literal bug sewage.
HAHAHAHAHA! Batman breaking down "fun" got me!
Still waiting for Jane's bioware boyfriends list
Can we just get Jane to play through any Bioware game as she would naturally and see what she does? I would love that as like a live stream series! (Jane could RP as anyone! The romances are endless!) Maybe when DA4 or the ME trilogy remaster comes out we can get that ball rolling?
Is it bad that I'm now wanting a from soft game with bioware style character interactions so I could romance solaire?
@@Yuukichan1888 no, it's not wrong at all! I don't know the developer or the character you mentioned, but maybe otome games or visual novels may be up your alley if you enjoy the romance/ character focused aspect of bioware games?
The Arcana, Fictif and Lovestruck are all visual novel apps (they do have paid choices and a content unlock clock so be warned) but maybe those may be up your alley in the mean time?
@@kraziiXIII they are the developers of the soul series bloodborne and sekiro
@@Yuukichan1888 oh neat! The name Solaire rang a bell but I couldn't place it. But yes, I wholeheartedly agree with you, any bloodborne/sekiro character should have a romance function!
Stefano is one of the best antagonists in video game history imo
ruvik was better imo, but he was a pretty good villan.
I’m surprised that Ardyn from FFXV wasn’t mentioned. He taunts the hell out of Noctis, especially during Chapter 13.
Ah yes! Evil within 2! I remember that game, CLASSIC
it's good.
@@ddjsoyenby i know right i got all secrets
I love evil within 2 it was really fun
@@8-bitfoxy55 BRO I FINISHED IT IN 4.1 HOURS
@@izaiahplayz4376 nice, i take my time with it and have maybe more prolonged fun with it. though my favorite part may be chapters 1-8
I come out, in the mornin' light
The hero says "I here to fight!"
Oh hero dear, you're quite the fortunate one
And bosses, they wanna have fun
Oh bosses just wanna have fun
(I'm so sorry)
I love this!😀
"vile of fun" definitely sounds like a euthamism
Vial*
I had to pause to CACKLE at "Is this what people mean by 'the ship of Theseus'? Because I ship it". Jesus that caught me off guard. Good one.
I saw the title and immediately thought of Girahim from Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword, the man quite literally dances and licks Link
Well... that's creepy. But I bet Girahim can bust moves
I think Ripper Roo from the Crash Bandicoot games qualifies for this list. No matter what you dish at him, he's always laughing joyously (or psychotically, depending on who you ask).
That's fab laugh of his goes beyond being a pyscho and can only mean true joy at life.
The best part of the Theseus fight is the one dude in the stands rooting for Zag haha, I always run up to him after and thank him
A “Gun glued to a golf club” sounds like a hilarious weapon Jane.
Demyx from Kingdom Hearts 2... He is just having a water show guitar concert at your expense XS
Dance
Water
Dance!~
There's two sides fighting for the fate of all worlds and he literally does not care
@@MelodicQuest I mean I'm pretty sure he only joined the Organization because he had no better option at the time
First thing that came to mind was Roche from Final Fantasy 7 Remake.
Honorable mention: Baldur from god of war
He's been deprived of any and all feeling for so long he fully revels in it when Kratos beats him to a pulp at the end of the game
"I don't know about you but I'm having a wonderful time."
-Carl
Jetstream Sam in Metal Gear Rising
"SHOW ME A GOOD TIME,JACK!"
I’m currently trying to finish the stuff in Hades post-game, and one time I tried to do a run where the bosses had extra bonuses. Theseus got a fancy golden helmet and chariot and god bless his cotton socks he was so excited. 😂😂
The best part about that is that he's convinced the gods gave it to him, and will not believe that it's because Zagreus upped the challenge rating.
To be honest I enjoyed Stefano Valentini's performance as a villain and he killed it. Literally. He's awesome if anything and is indeed an interesting case for mental instability
I think Ardyn from Final Fantasy 15 is a good candidate. He's constantly taunting the player and laughing. And if you play his DLC, he's having a great time smashing up Insomnia.
Jester from devil may cry 3. He is literally laughing and joking the entire time.
I JUST SAID THIS! YES.
"Ship of Theseus" pun of the year
Mysterious Stranger at the start of God of War? Seems to enjoy himself.
"Is _this_ what people mean they reference the 'ship of Theseus?' Because _I ship it."_
Best line of the video right here.
Honestly, I don't know how much fun Theseus is having. Of the Hades bosses, I'd definitely have gone with Alecto as having way more fun.
True, but she's also incredibly angry that she's having fun.
Well, I would say Vaas Montenegro actually have a blast during the whole Far Cry 3, thought he was going to be in this list!
You done forgot about fatman from MGS Sons of Liberty....roller blades, champagne and C4, dude was having the time of he's life
Thanks for bringing more attention to evil within 2. All of these bosses definitely do what they love and love what they do.
Having just started Resi 7 myself, I'm delighted to see Jack on the list. I'm super early in the game, so I haven't gotten to the garage fight yet. I'm almost as big a scaredy cat as Ellen, so I'm playing the game more to have a better appreciate of the set up with Resi 8 and all that.
I love Jane shipping Theseus and Asterius. Stefano reminds me a lot of Cohen in BioShock with all the artwork and such.
The administrator from Evil within DLC the consequence. He was laughing at you the whole way during the game and while choking you during the final battle against him.
There is one boss missing on this list in my opinion. That is Zenos from ffxiv. When you finally meet him, he will greet you as if you are his long lost friend, and throughout his entire fight he mocks you and literally says how much fun he is having. At the end of the fight, he tells you that this has been the best moment of his life before somewhat emotionally committing self die.
Sander Cohen and Handsome Jack both object to their omission
I'd like to nominate Fontain from Bioshock. He spends the entire fight just amazed at how good he feels now that he is juiced up on Adam and Eve and wondering why he kept avoiding it for so long.
Could we do another video/zoom call about video game music? Its been too long since we heard you folk's ideas about good, annoying, or hype music in video games.
If there's a commentors edition you gotta mention Theseus again when you up the heat gage and he gets his dope golden chariot. He literally wheels around firing fireworks instead of fighting you half the time.
One boss that had far more fun than he deserves was micolash was having a fucking blast seeing you run in a maze like some sort of headless chicken
