Your most evil gaming atrocities

[uhddh]

In Just Cause 2, I attached a car that had the driver inside of it to a helicopter, flew up about 500 meters in the air, then abandoned ship. Watching the whole apparatus slowly spiral into an inevitable fiery explosion and picturing the terrified driver inside the car was almost therapeutic.

Pretty much this. Followed with attaching a guy to the helicopter and just flying off with him just hanging from the struts. when I jumped out the helicopter just fell past him and cut him up with the still turning blades.

In Prototype I walked into a densely populated area disguised as military and just shot everyone. Then called an airstrike on the surviving civilians. I cannot think of my worst. These are rather standard acts of therapy for me.

I'd be careful... the Bay12 Forums have proved that threads like this can be "won", locked and get people banned.

This one time.

I stole some guy's sweet roll.


[sub][sub]I don't like being evil in games...[/sub][/sub]

I don't either, man.

The most evil thing I can remember doing was... killing a mook. Which I've done lots.

Have any links? I always miss the good stuff. Mostly it's people asking how to mine adamantite or kill their nobles over and over.

They can't figure out how to kill nobles? Sheesh, imagination, people!

Anyways, the thread was deleted because SERIOUSLY, WTF.

From TVTropes:
There was also the "Most evil/horrific thing you've ever done" thread on the Bay 12 Games forum which was deleted because somebody "won". And it was not the story of the dwarf who broke a child's arms and legs, proceeded to slowly beat the parents to death right in front of the child and then beat the child to death with the corpse of its mother.

The winning story was modding the game to allow child rape.

There's something very wrong with some of Dwarf Fortress' players.

I did something far worse. I made a child eat bread made with the blood of his dead parents. I killed the dad, obtained a bucket of his blood, carried it around for no real reason til i met the orphans of said parent. Then after obtaining a quest to feed them for 'good karma' i simply used the blood instead of water for the mixture, and then fed the blood bread to the children. And the best part? I GAINED GOOD KARMA FOR IT!

Source? Play Ultima VII

 

[Samuel Evans]

Play the dawnguard DLC. They don't get oblivion they get eons of horrible pain.

 

[Unsilenced]

In Hitman Blood Money, I killed every single NPC on every level.

I tried to do that in the level with the party in the street. I got pretty far a few times, but never really got around to doing it all the way through.

Still though, it's a sick, sick feeling when you open fire and just watch a wave crash through the crowd in front of you.

Ughh... *shakes head*

Even in a game where I played an emotionless killer, that was pretty brutal.



I've left people wounded in a few games. Took on a dude in FNV, broke all his limbs, took him down to 1 health, then followed him as he limped away into the desert. Finally he had enough and tried to punch me, so I blew him to shreds with a shotgun.


In Postal 2 I went to a guy's house, found his cat, and [redacted] so I wouldn't make as much noise. Then I found him and [redacted] him until he [redacted], and poured gasoline over him. Then I [redacted] and let him [redacted] until I figured he'd had enough, and put him out by [redacted]. At that point he was crawling on the floor, so I decided to stand over him and [redacted], but I didn't get very far before growing tired of it. I considered killing him with my cat-[redacted], but then I saw his wife come in, so I did the same thing to her, only I then [redacted] her and left her [redacted] in front of him on the floor for him to look at. Then I set the TV on fire and left.

Good game.

Well, I did sacrifice many wives to get the worthless evil weapon in Fable 2.

But my favorite evil moment in that game is in the beginning, after killing the first boss, you're given an option of freeing some would-be slaves, or giving them to their buyer for money. What I did was sell them to the buyer, kill him, take the key back, free the slaves, THEN SNIPE THEM AS THEY RUN FOR FREEDOM!!!

But, yeah, I'm also making a psycho ***** FemShep run in Mass Effect, and I'm finding all the ways I can get as many people killed in the course of the games.

Morrowind. You know Vivec, the main city of Vardenfell, the big place with the irrationally-designed cantons and the underground and that racist b____ with the magic dagger killing "Outlanders" and anyone else who gets in her way? The place where it can take half an hour to move 100m on the map because you have to go all the way round via several different floors down and back up? The place where you can't take 100 paces without "Keep moving," "We're watching you, scum," or my favourite, "If you're here for trouble you'll get more than you bargained for?"

Well, I lost it.

I'd traipsed all over the island. I'd hunted down brigands, tracked down the murderers of tax inspectors, returned valuable jewellery to its rightful owners, gathered mushrooms from a swamp full of uglies, dealt with plague zombies and demon-worshippers, escorted pilgrims, protected sacred rites and everything else for them, I'd had every disease going outside Corprus and paid to be treated for all of them in a world where people happily stand outside in a blight storm and tell you that standing outside in a blight storm will make you sick, I'd retrieved the f*****g Hellraiser puzzle-box for some guy in exchange for some trivial information, I'd been sent off on all sorts of daft errands, I'd fought corruption and vampires and I was getting sick of it.

"We're watching you, scum."
*sching*
*tchack*
"Ugh!"
*tchack*
*slice*
"Urgh ... "

WATCHING ME, ARE YOU? WERE YOU WATCHING THAT? COME ON THEN!
COME AN' 'AVE A GO IF YEH THINK YE'RE 'ARD ENOUGH!

Vivec became a ghost town. I still won. I shoved The Devil Himself off the ledge into the lava, used the fancy weapons to destroy the Heart, put them away and used a LOT of healing magic to survive the Mortal Wounds, and Arkay came along and thanked me for ending the zombie plague. I'm still, technically, the Nerevarine Messiah. I just did a Sodom & Gomorrah act on Vivec City along the way.

Playing serious in Sins of a Solar Empire. I usually like to take planets through cultural means, destroying orbital facilities, replacing 'em with my starbases, and waiting for a rebellion... but when I'm playing to win as swiftly as possible I bomb the place until there's no trace of life and no brick left stacked upon another, then re-colonize. Much quicker. Also genocide.

This, but with most of Vvardenfell, and leaving the main quest unresolved/in shambles because I killed so many plot-important people. I really hate everyone in that game, basically.
In Skyrim I used the console to lock Delphine in her little basement hideout forever for being a *****.
This is not counting all the GTA, Saint's Row and Just Cause rampages, those are just part of the game.
The only evil things I've ever genuinely felt bad about in games were leaving Redcliffe to die and nuking Megaton. I'm pretty much a-okay with anything short of complete destruction of thriving towns.
-thinks back to Red Faction: Guerrilla-
Wait, no, scratch that. I'm a-okay with that too!

 

[Wintermoot]

~I don't want to set the world on fire~
I think nuking a town full of innocent people constitutes as a atrocity.

 

[BathorysGraveland]

I guess the most evil, is I can wander around Skyrim butchering hordes of people, no matter their age or sex, and leaving vast mountains of human skulls behind me and not feel a thing. But as soon as I kill one little fox, I feel like an absolute prick.

EDIT: Oh yeah. In Gothic II, I had amazing fun with the 'Army of Darkness' spell, as it would summon 5 (I think) skeleton warriors at once. Now, spells in the game not only stack, you can also machine-gun them. So I could raise about 30 or so skeleton warriors in a few seconds. Hilarity ensues when this is done in populated areas.

Killing things in video games has always been pretty relaxing. Adding military equipment intensifies the effect.

I was cruising along in Saints Row the Third today and I came across a gang operation, so I immediately powerslid into a group of Morningstar, pinning my vehicle against a wall. I then got out of the car and proceeded to take out the ones who were still alive. After killing what seemed like everybody, I was amazed to see that my percentage completion of the operation was still one kill short. I looked around a bit and found the last one. It was a guy that I had pinned in between the wall and my car when I did my original powerslide. He wasn't losing health, but he was stuck tightly enough so that he couldn't move. I stood there and watched him for way more time than I should have, occasionally sprinkling the area around him with bullets while never actually hitting him. I can't imagine how painful that must have been. After about 2 or 3 minutes of watching, I simply threw a grenade and blew up the car and the poor gang member, finally granting him the gift of ending his suffering.

Also on my most recent Fallout 3 playthrough, I went into the Citadel, dropped a Bottlecap Mine in-between two paladins who were guarding the Elder's room, switched to a silenced 10mm pistol, and shot the mine. They both died and I made the people not hostile towards me by activating a Stealth Boy. The reason for this murder? I wanted a suit of power armor and some holotags. I then felt guilty for ending these two brave paladins' lives for my own material gain, so I decided to drag them both into the sleeping quarters and lie them on two empty beds. It seemed like the best way to show my respects. I unfortunately could not grab the arms and legs which had flown off as a result of the explosion.

Well, once in Medieval 2: Total War, I was Scotland, but my ally was France, they were getting a little too powerful for my liking, so, I started a war with the Holy Roman Empire, and made sure France was involved, then I back stabbed half of the french royal family, and bribed off some of their armies and settlements, and used the armies I'd bribed to sack the rest of their settlements, as all their armies were off fighting with the HRE, what was left of France pleaded for peace, I agreed, on condition that they give me more of their land, about two turns later, France no longer existed. And I paid for peace with the HRE. My holdings on mainland Europe quadrupled, as did my income. I did it all by using other people's armies.

 

[Joby Baumann]

Far Cry 2.
That game makes you feel like a dick.

 

[Biodeamon]

oh balls i don't cant count them. it's hard to pick the evilest. i've got so many i can't count. one of them is killing everybody in a community just to eat them in fallout. another one was slaughtering a person i'd told i'd leave alone if they gave me piece of leather in a hunger games server. after he me the laether i just came back 5 minutes later and slaughtered him in a hole he dug himself while i was wearing a fashionable new lether boots.

 

[Drummie666]

I'm pretty certain that Spec Ops: The Line contains the worst I've done. Though doing all those things are part of the story, still, they're the worst things I've ever done in a game.

 

[spartandude]

In minecraft (you can already see where this going) my friend built an entire city in the sky, he had a few stair cases dotted round the island leading really high up (just above the clouds) and then pretty much a massive city problem was he made it all out of wood

so while he was working down in the mines to collect gold i made some flint and steel.... well yh you know what happened
but to make matters worse when he found gold he saved his world so he wouldnt have to do that again, but by the time he did that the stairs were gone and the fire had just made it to his city. he did not realise this until he got out side


he was not happy with me no sir

 

[teqrevisited]

I was playing Medieval2 TW and the French kept sending spies and assassins against my heirs and generals. I amassed an army like no other before and proceeded to sweep across western Europe, laying siege to every castle and town, slaughtering every last prisoner and sacking every French settlement in my path.

Then Milan got annoyed. Milan was no more. It was at this point that the Pope decided to make his thoughts known, excommunicating England and turning the rest of the Christian world against me. My goal had shifted from annihilation of the French to complete and total destruction of mainland Europe.

Let's just say it didn't end well for His Holiness.

I stopped searching for items in Day Z and now I just farm people.

 

[cerebus23]

Do you count multiplayer games? In EVE I once baited some guy to, through game mechanics, allow me to kill his 200mil ISK ship. I then apologised and agreed to join his corp to stop him hireing mercenaries to decalre war on me (a threat often made, never done though, so no risk of him doing that). Then, in his corp with my friend, we waited till he was afk then locked down his 800mil isk + cargo ship, ransomed him for about 1.2billion when he got back, then killed him anyway.

To be fair, he did seem to be a bit of a dick, would've done it even if he wasn't, but he was.

He also must have been incredibly mind numbing stupid if he invited you into his corp....eve showing that natural selection still exists in the mmo world.


I just find it hard to top the stuff you do in mass effect since it involves billions of lives, the utter possible extinction of entire races, genocide, brain washing, the sheer scale of bad things you can do in that series is off the charts when you think about it.

So all the people i terrorzed in grand theft auto over the years for the lulz, the few children i have killed in fallout games, the just deciding i do not like someone so i end them, just cause 2 terror, all pale to mass effect in my book.
