Your most evil gaming atrocities

[ThatDarnCoyote]

In one playthrough of Wasteland, I killed every killable NPC I could. The Reclaimer Tribe, the casino patrons, the cops in Needles, the kids in Camp Highpool, everybody.

Don't judge me. I needed the XP.

In Civilization 5, I annihilated three whole civilizations purely because I wanted to reduce the almost unbearable wait time between turns. Genocide for my convenience.

 

[Bad Jim]

I nailed Stan the used coffin salesman into one of his own coffins. I nailed him in so well he didn't get out until the sequel.

 

[Ledan]

Ah, fallout memories . I activate the bloody murder perk and go around killing everyoen. Good guys, bad guys, dogs, cats, radroaches, everything that moves. Fun times.

Other than that.... KOTOR, went for the uber evil ending.

Other than that.... KOTOR, went for the uber evil ending.

Yeah, me too. And I loved it...MUAHAHAHA!

For sheer numbers in one go though, an all out nuclear attack against 4 other civs simultaneously in Civ 4 which ended up with me shattering the planets crust is probably a fair contender.

In Destroy All Humans 2 I performed some makeshift waterboarding on people by floating them in and out of a river. When that didnt work i blew up their heads ..... and then dumped them in the river.

Also in Just Cause 2 i may have tied about 10 civilians to the bottom of my Helicopter and then flown it very low over a nearby jungle. Suffice to say that they weren't alive when we landed

I can't even describe all the atrocities I've committed in games I mean with Prototype, Fable 2, and GTA San Andreas alone my kill count is in the millions by now but I'll try. Since I haven't bothered to learn how to do the spoilers thing I'll make it as spoil-free as I feel like. Near the ending of Jade Empire the soul binding thing and Overlord 1 & 2... all of it, even when you're good, you're bad.

Civ IV.

I was utterly dominating the whole game, had 68% of the population, not including my vassal states and probably about 70-80% of the land surface including vassals, 7x the military strength of the head of the second place alliance block (basically the orient), who I was on friendly terms with, and about 10x the military strength of the leader of the 3rd place block (basically the middle east). I had all the uranium resources so they couldn't build nukes and as far as my spies could tell, they had no BBM's. Essentially they were no threat whatsoever, nobody had even thought of declaring war on me or my vassal states for over 500 years.
So I initiate a massive all out nuclear strike on both blocks as they had a defensive pact so I couldn't just declare war on one. A few hundred million dead, the middle and far east an irradiated wasteland. I didn't need their resources, they weren't hostile or even a credible threat if they were, most of them were actively friendly, I could have taken them easily in a conventional war...but I just wanted to see how completely I could fuck them over with my massively bloated nuclear arsenal. The most vile monster in human history.

I systematically destroyed every other civilisation in Civ IV. My territory was the corner of Northern America and over the whole game, I captured and destroyed everyone city by city until I was alone with the same territory I began with on an otherwise empty planet. Global genocide.

 

[Turiski]

I guess I fall into the "not doing evil things" crowd, but? does killing Fenix in Brood War count? It's sort of forced on you. But damn, that still hasn't lost its impact for me after all these years.

Rookie. Know what I did? I waited until Lucas Simms went to bed, then woke his kid up just so he could watch me butcher his father with baton (took a while) and ate what was left. Must have suppressed it though, cause the next time I saw him he acted like nothing had happened. That sick little bastard.

Fall Out 1/3 - every one that could die was dead..
Oblivion (with mod) every one that could die was dead...
Skyrim, Kotor 1/2, Deus Ex series, Diablo, Elder Scroll series, Mass Effect, C&C series, Postal, Fable, Kingdoms of Amalur... if it can die, I'll be nice and help.

But only when I get bored with stupid quest objectives really... In Oblivion, this dumb Elf wants me to get summin' from somewhere (can't remember really), I get back after a LOT of trouble, game bugs out and he pretends he doesn't know me!
So, to vent my frustration, I stuck him to where he was standing, got every moving person to gravitate towards him and set everything on fire... Guards came to tell me off, but they caught fire 's well (wasn't me btw)..

I'm kinda of a bastard in games sometimes... But that's it, IN GAMES, 's all a game, do what you want, it's a game, 's not real.
Vent your frustrations, obsessions, quirkiness and dysfunctions, in a game...

In Skyrim recently, I tried to tie chickens to the heads of all NCP's... dunno why, just thought i'd be funny to see... (ok, I tried to create Duck-Man out of the Discworld series, just don't tell anyone)

Sorry for the rambling...

Playing Black & White, worked out the most efficient source of Mana was to have a few breeders in your villages, and set location hotkeys for the Crèche and the sacrificial alter.

Yes, that's right. Anytime I ran low on Mana, I simply sacrificed kids for Mana. After all, kids are a renewable resource. And they give more mana than adults (the younger, the better), while also solving the overpopulation issue! It was win/win!

 

[GloatingSwine]

I scour entire planets of life in the name of lebensraum in Master of Orion (and, indeed, every other space 4x going).

 

[Dectomax]

I remember back in the day on Gears of War 1, me and my friends would play hide and seek ( Hell, I do believe we were the ones who created it? ) and the goal mainly was to avoid the enemy team. ( We wouldn't tell them this ofcourse...) but every so often I'd get this genius plan - Run through to a door way and stop. In the middle. They can't get past and the screams...dear lord the screams and how they died out one by one...Then, after the last guy was in the middle of being chainsawed...I'd leg it, tears of laughter streaming down my cheeks...

 

[Surpheal]

Lets see...

I've killed everything that moved in New Vegas, Prototype 2, Red Faction: Armageddon, Saints Row 3, Skyrim (though I left all of the foxes alive, because I they're so fun), and everyone in Airstrikes 2: Hooray for airstrikes! I destroyed every building in Red Faction Guerrilla/ Armageddon, Airstrikes 2, and just ruined everyone shit.

Though my favorite activity for a while was in Spore. I would get up to the space stage as fast as possible, get as powerful as fast as I could, and then the fun begins. Once I reached a certain level of strength I would go around and commit acts of sheer genecidal terror to everything that wasn't me. If there was another space faring race, I would destroy it, using either lasers, bombs, de terraforming the planet, or even hitting the cities asteroids for the fun of it. If I found a planet that had only at the civilization level, I would use it to far spice from them and just watch as they fight each other. And if I could afford to, I would use planet busters on the home worlds of my enemies or just to wipe a planet from existence to show my power.

In skyrim I had a wife - follower... Ithink it was Mjoll that time, so i accidentally sacrifised to a deadra lord(mistress) Boethia, becauyse i thought she was only to be tied down and deadra would speak to her or something, but when i was ordered to kill her after binding i was shocked by my misinterpretation of what she said to me and worst thing was that I couldn't unbind her. I like to live on one save and i had to leave her there... She sits there now for 3 months wating...

There must be some sort of console command to get round that. Might take a bit of looking through wikis to find the right parts of the scripts but you can usually get round those sorts of problems.

 

[Baalthazaq]

Worst thing ever in a videogame... no idea.

I remember the first time I ever got upset at something I did in a videogame, was when I was about 12 in my first ever RPG (I can't even remember what it was called), but I attacked and killed what I thought was an orc and wolf but turned out to be a small boy and his dog.

Damn you 1995 graphics! Damn you!

 

[WaysideMaze]

When i played hitman bloodmoney, my first hitman game, i tried to kill absolutely everyone on every map, got psychopath for most missions.

I used to enjoy doing it in creative ways. Try to kill everyone on a level with knives or something. Fibre wire was a good challenge aswell.

For me though, probably the Megaton bombing. A whole town wiped out because some rich prick doesn't like the look of it? That's pretty horrific.

Or my first inFamous playthrough.
