This is so funny. I literally just typed "Weiss (you dumbass!)" in our thread a minute ago, and then I see this thread. Amazing.

Favorite dumbasses in video games?

I haven't played P5 yet. If I hated Junpei and Yosuke, will I like Ryuji more?
Ryuji from Persona 5. Get ready for tons of this post.
Ryuji's that dumbass jock who would literally die for you but is also constantly getting into some bullshit. Reminds me of like 75% the dudes I played sports with growing up. The embodiment of "he's a dumbass ... but he's our dumbass."

One of the funniest characters in gaming imo. Hades is such a funny game in general.Theseus from Hades.
This meathead is such a pain in the ass lol. It's so rewarding to learn his pattern well enough to kick his ass every time.
The way you gradually get him and his partner Asterius the Minotaur on frosty terms due to Asterius's growing respect for you is very satisfying.
god he's such a dumbass. i love him and his small bombs
battler ushiromiya, king of the dumb guy geniuses
I considered it too, but the impression he left was more of a cunning dude who liked running his mouth a bit too much, rather than just dumb.
Jansen is more cunning than he first appears and not nearly as cunning as he likes to think he is.
"See this gold, Gongara? I kind of want to give it back, but I won't."
Dude even has loveable dumbass music.
Gaze upon the beauty that is the Legend of Groose!
This guy and his penchant for getting charged with crimes again and again.
I have a soft spot for Larry Butz in the Ace Attorney games.
Theseus from Hades.

Seeing Extreme Measures Theseus for the first time is still my favorite thing in that entire game.
Fucking glorious
Kenpachi Ramasama is my favorite Persona protag because he's a gigantic idiot AND somehow also a total Chad.
Yu Narukami can be an absolute idiot at times and I love it. He's especially dumb in BBTAG's story mode. Dude wore his Inaba uniform in his old school the whole time because he just forgot he had it on.
It's a crime that it took this long for someone to post Kasuga - but I also guess he regularly has surprisingly smart moments? He's just mega earnest and has one foot in a crazy fantasy world based on Dragon Quest.
Ichiban Kasuga. What's not to love about this idiot?

came to post this. sucks that they seemed to have forgot about the narrative element/pacing quarter through the game
Skyward Sword is one of the few games i'd be okay with them going balls out jrpg trope with
Echoing what others have said about Ryuji.
Dude's an idiot and I never put him in my party if I don't have to but also I kinda love him. He's a total doof who would die for anyone in the party in seconds if he had to. I think his biggest con is you're stuck with him alone for so much of the game that you're sick of him before he becomes a more enjoyable character.
I think he's really fun to play as in Strikers too.

This is such a good callout, Papyrus is this trope all over and I LOVE HIM.
Yeah,
his fate was pretty sad. :(
Glados should be rotting in space, not him.

Yup. Love him to death.
Dude just got played by Quan Chi to hand over the souls of his warriors, plus he gets Liu Kang killed. Raiden is like a bull in an antique store.
And he keeps doing dumb shit for three straight games until Kronika tells him straight up how much of a dumbass he is, at which point he actually does the smart thing for once.

Definitely who I thought of first, lol
