The Most Immoral Thing You've Done in a Video Game

[Denamic]

In Fallout 3, killed a child and ate her.
That was fun.
So I did it again.

 

[Griff Morivan]

On a Minecraft RP server, I led a raiding party to kill an smaller village, and then conspired with each of my subserviants to knock off other members of the party until I killed the last one, all of which was Joker Bank style.

I essentially played the Kurgan on that server.

 

[theandrewchild]

In Civ V. I knowingly allowed one of my major cities to get nuked because i didn't want to divert the resources to protect it and I was about to win.

 

[Mr.PlanetEater]

Simple, I placed frag mines around the front gate of Megaton..then shot everyone in the legs with the Chinese pistol just enough so that they would be crippled. The ones that were set to would give up and limp away towards the minefield I had stationed at the gate. Was quite a dick move I must say. Also I bashed Billy Creel's skull into a thousand pieces in front of his daughter.

 

[Halceon]

*points at the Dwarf Fortress forums*

That.

Seriously, that game practically forces you to act like a sick bastard.

If I were to pick a highlight it'd be the time that I attacked a wolf, cut off both of it's front legs and watched it fall over and bleed to death.

Or the time that I got bored of a fortress and purposely flooded the lower levels, trapping 50 dwarves upstairs with no food until they all went insane and killed each other.

Or... well, you get the idea.

This man speaks the truth. My own worst DF moment would be the immigrant death machine. Complete with starvation burrow, intruder atom smasher and a drowning chamber just for good measure. And then, when the goblins come, we'd play a little game of Feed The Albino Crocodile In The Cavern. Or Feed The Megabeast.

 

[Swarles]

Well in Fallout 3, I went to the Republic of Dave and massacred everyone. But then I freed the slaves by killing all the slavers so it balances out.

 

[Booze Zombie]

There's two things, one old and one very recent... I'll start with the old.

In Fallout 3, I went into The Brass Lantern, killed every member of the family that owned it, beheaded them (that took a few swings), lined up some plates and placed their heads on them in a neat little row. I was having a bad day, but I realised what I did wasn't exactly... right, so I loaded up my game and it only exists when I recount it, now.

Saints Row 2, I had just died and I went on a rocket launcher rampage... in a hospital, with people sitting around screaming in pain, their families checking on them and the people who just revived me standing around begging to not die. I loaded my game as I felt incredibly immoral for doing this, I'm not even sure why I started firing my rocket launcher as I wasn't even in the mood to do that.

 

[Yeager942]

In KoToR 2 I force lightninged and life drained an entire family of starving refugees, mother and children, then gave their space-port visa to a conniving smuggler for a lightsaber crystal.


Good times.

 

[deserteagleeye]

Decapitating Billy Creel in front of Maggie, killing Lucas Simms in front of Harden,(I think that's his son's name) massacring the rest of Megaton except the kids (because they can't be killed by hand), chased the last 2 kids with a Deathclaw hand, nuking Megaton(hopefully killing those kids), and finally going back to the charred remains of Megaton and shooting Ghoul Moira in the face with a teddy bear with my Rock-it launcher until she dies.

 

[BaronIveagh]

Team kill in World of Tanks. The entire team except me. and then the entire enemy team.

 

[ydkwidrmw]

In "The Sims", I trapped a man in a tiny room that was filled with cactus trees and cuckoo clocks. The was so cramped he could only stand up. After days of wetting himself, sleeping while standing then constantly getting woken up by the cuckoo clocks he died from some unknown cause.

Protoype: doing just about anything. but getting the achievement "speed bumps" in particular you need to run over X number of people in a single tank. How did I accomplish this? Find a tank driving down the street, steal it (by eating the driver) and then proceed to drive down the sidewalk where dozens of npcs spawn walking along towards me before being squished. A tank driving down the crowded streets of New York purposing running over everyone for a an achievement... even Hitler would be upset by that.

I dunno if all the NPCs you killed were Jewish he might give you a medal for your 'efforts'....you monster ;>)

I dunno if this is as bad as slaughtering people, but in Dragon Age Origins I led both Morrigan and Leliana on, had sex with Morrigan, broke up with Leliana, did her personal quest, have sex with her then break up with her again, before purposely lording my relationship by kissing Morrigan when only Leliana was in the party, I felt like a dick

I'd feel like an asshole too but you know you could always be an even bigger and crueler bastard by doing all that and talking to Morrigan all about love

Spoiler: Witch Hunt endgame

then doing her ritual, playing the DLC she's in, talk love some when you finaly find her and then gut her for leaving before the fight with the archdemon and let her corpse fall through the portal where your child is presumably on the other side waiting for her

Probably Saints Row 2 when I took my EDF car/rocket launcher and decided to artillery strike the hell out of the homeless....That'll teach them for being non-self-sustaining.

you think thats bad I went with an NPC buddy of mine to my airport crib and we each took a stripper as a human shield walked them up to the heli pad let them go put all of our satchel charges on them, grabbed them again and threw the off the building and tried to play keep up using the charges X3.

I, uh... I don't know why, but i kidnap people on Red Dead Redemption. I find people riding out in the wilderness alone, or i find a stagecoach, i put on my bandana, i kill any companions the victim might have (and any witnesses), and then i rope up the last one left alive, hogtie them, and put them on my horse. I then ride out into the middle of nowhere, it could be a camp, it could be the top of a cliffside, i point the gun at their face, and pull the trigger. The benefit to a cliffside is that the corpse sometimes dramatically ragdolls off the side and falls down the crevice. Sometimes i ride up to a deep river and throw them in, causing them to drown, while i watch. Sometimes i put them in front of a train and wait until they are run over. (I got the Dastardly achievement purely by accident by doing this). Sometimes, if the train is in the station, i board it - and wait until we're in the middle of nowhere, like somewhere high up in the mountains. I then take out my gun and start shooting everyone, working my way up to the driver, and killing him if the train has stopped. I was sad to see you couldn't drive the train yourself to the next station, which meant a lot of tedious riding back to town. Ah, the town; there are the times where i lose all subtlety and don't bother looking for victims in the wilderness. Sometimes i simply ride into town, roping and dragging someone to the outskirts, letting him or her go while i kill the law enforcement, and laugh as they try to run back to civilisation, only to ride up and abduct them inches before freedom. Sometimes i have my eye on someone in particular. I've hogtied people in bars, killed everybody inside and any law enforcement outside, then make off with the victim on horseback. And then there are the times i drag people through town until death for the sole purpose of luring the law enforcement out, so i can murder them all and abduct one of them, making an example of him, such as laying him in the middle of the street and executing him with a headshot for all to see, or taking him to the middle of a desert, releasing him, only for him to be eaten by wolves, or simply slit his throat with the knife. In fact, the knife, revolver, and tomahawk are my favoured weapons of execution, probably in that order. Though the revolver has the benefit of sometimes making the body jerk a bit, letting it fall down cliffsides as i described earlier. The knife is more of a silent weapon when you don't want to be bothered with witnesses. The sort of thing you use to kill someone when you're at a campsite and they're by the tent.

I have no idea why i do these things. I just get... cravings. It's very satisfying. I've wasted many hours simply hunting and killing people in this fashion, but always making sure to wear my bandanna so i'm always 100% honourable. I'm sort of like the wild west version of Patrick Bateman.

dude, you're a sociopath, can you teach me, PLEASE * pretty face* The worst thigs I did was whenI was playing those shitty saw games and I let oswald get contorted, it felt nice, although seriously man, TEACH ME

Dude. If ur not joking, get help

whoah! You're totally right, I'm obviously not joking. I happen to like eating kittens and worshiping satan lol.
Nah, I'm just messing, after all, everyone is a sociopath. We all put ourselves above others. Morality? Logically it can't exist. Knowladge exists with truth, there is no truth, therefore there is no knowladge of morality, and thus it doesn't exist because morality proclaims it'self to be knowladge. Thus there is no right, there is no wrong, because if something can be justified, then that means that it is not absolute, and if it is not abosolute then eventually the definition to which you put onto it will be made null, this belief is calld Nihilism, to have morality be made nil. Any agreements/ disagreements?

Lol. I thought people would be kind of disgusted with my little acts of violence, but all evidence to the contrary i guess. Sometimes i mix it up; i may abduct one person, a man or a woman, and leave them by my little 'camp', and then find another nearby victim and bring him / her over to my horse and my other victim. Sometimes i execute the second victim in front of the first. Sometimes i let the first watch as i free the second, and as he is running madly away from me, i shoot him in the legs and watch him fall over, and desperately try to limp away, before i end it with a well-placed and silent throwing knife to his back. Sometimes i fire shots beside the victim to make them panic; it's fun watching their legs twitch and their body struggle when they get scared. Sometimes when i put them on the tracks and a train is incoming, i hold my gun at them, deciding whether they'll die by my bullet before being run over or whether i'll let the train take them. Or sometimes i'll throw a molotov cocktail on them while they're tied up, in the vein of Kick-Ass, when Big Daddy is being torched by the gangsters.

...I guess what i'm saying is that variety is the spice of life. Be creative!

Fun fact: Red Dead actually lets me fulfill all of my sadistic little desires in ways i wished i could in the Grand Theft Auto series. I was absolutely shocked when they gave me a lasso in Red Dead. I couldn't believe they let me keep it after the mission, either, or that i could use it in so many wonderfully creative ways. GTA has always had the capacity to facilitate that kind of sadistic torturous violence, but unfortunately became relegated to nothing more than randomly stabbing someone in public down an alleyway or shooting someone with a rifle from further away than they could see you, which led to the law enforcement coming after you who have flawless tracking skills. That's always been a real bugbear of mine, and it made me very happy to see it was eliminated from Red Dead. You actually have the option to silence your witnesses, be it with a gun or with cash. No more insta-tracking flawless law enforcement agencies out to ruin your day. I do hope this trend continues with the next Rockstar game.

Dude. If ur not joking, get help

Oh come now, we all have our little deviances! Besides, fulfilling them on a game isn't hurting anyone. Think of it as... enhancing the enjoyment of the player by thinking outside of the box and causing a little mayhem.

Throwing a baby into a lake...

Blimey. What game was that?

Also, i love this thread. Most interesting topic of player behaviour in a long time.

I have no issues with your methods. After all, thats the ultimate freedom, insanity. Freedom is
" the ability to do without restraint of any kind" I love freedom. What is the ultimate restraint on actions? It is the mind. If there is not a conscience telling you what to, and to not do, then you can do whatever you feel like. Some people say that wanting to kill a character in a game is dangerous. HA! You think hitler was a product of games? He was a product of war, he was a product of simple human emotion
" My country has been betreyed by the people who were high, they submitted, accepting surrendur insted of death. Well when I come to power I'll make sure these high people, these Jews, I'll make them pay" Thatd be his way of thinking, would it not? WHy should we need help if we live out our most primal nature inside of a machine? We're not hurting a human, an animal, or anything of intrinsic value. And people think I need help for simply wanting to know of creative ways to let out my disgruntlement towards this world and the rotten filth of it, hehehe, it's rather funny if you think about it.

 

[mikev7.0]

Just playing as Kratos in God of War XD Seriously, all the innocents slaughtered XD Yeah...when I actually have a choice in games, I pick the good. In this case, no choice whatsoever.

Geez, and here to think that I was actually kinda' bummed about not being able to play that game! Thanks for that!

For myself it would have to be ignoring the free will of an entire world. At the end of Invisible War I bypassed whether people would be happy about it or not and just gave everyone superpowers theoretically making everybody equal. No, not everyone (particularly those in power) was going to be happy about it, but there was no better answer, so being someone who has always kind of questioned free will anywho, there ya' go. My darkest gaming "sin."

 

[gutterball17]

I ate orphans.

 

[Stako]

Beaten The Suffering on the hardest difficulty setting without dieing throughout the whole game. F'yeah!

 

[inFAMOUSCowZ]

Well I would plant mines every in a select town in Fallout 3. I would then shoot one person and see chaos unfold. I enjoyed the hell out of it in a sick way. I'd put slave collars on people and launch a nuke at them. I killed faux in his chamber. I also wiped the entire world of Fallout 3 of all life(that I could find)

 

[NuclearPenguin]

I.. Played Yun in Street Fighter ranked matches

 

[Steven Post]

I got Crackdown, downloaded Keys To The City, and spent roughly a year occasionally going to said KTTC Mode to pop car tires and watch civilians fly their sedans off bridges.
And some people try to say I'm a good person! BAH!
