10 Video Game Bosses Who It Would Suck To Work For

The Metal Gear saga's storyline might be one of the most confusing plots in gaming, but if there's one thing for sure, it's that you don't want sometimes series protagonist Big Boss as, well, your boss.

Countless twists and turns across his journey as effectively the ultimate stealth supersoldier left Big Boss vastly disillusioned with most forms of government. He might have the ultimately positive aim of unifying the entire world, but his methods and involvement/engagement with several shadowy organisations don't exactly make for a safe working environment.

Whether working on Mother Base or being sent on any number of covert missions, being a member of Big Boss's PMC Militaires Sans Frontières would already bring significant risk, Big Boss's rogues gallery includes any number of superpowered enemy operatives and towering mechs.

Apart from anything else, Big Boss had so much drama going on with his own convoluted family that he's probably a bit preoccupied to be with world-shattering clandestine drama. Plus, the bizarre agent naming convention of adjective + animal name means you could easily end up spending your missions being called "bulbous whale" or "sleepy armadillo". Sure, not the worst grievance on the list, but it's hardly Naked Snake is it.
