{{Video Game Examples Need Sorting}}
Examples of [[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]es in [[{{SUBPAGENAME}}]] include:
* The [[Big Bad]] of ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'' engages in a nihilistic speech at the end of the game that basically berates the human species (and the party) for being feeble worthless insects in comparison to him, how he [[A God Am I|wields the might of the entire universe]], and how stupid it is for them to keep trying to rebuild the things he destroys, since they would inevitably decay or be destroyed anyways. Afterwards, the party attempts a philosophical retort with each of them systematically explaining what they've learned and how they've bonded with one another throughout their experiences. The [[Big Bad]] says, "This is sickening ... You sound like chapters from a self-help booklet. Prepare yourselves!", and proceeds to attack the party. And he then proceeds to get his ass kicked.
Line 111 ⟶ 113:
** After the end of the next dungeon, one of the [[Dialogue Tree]] options when saving {{spoiler|Impa}} calls back to the speech with [[Deadpan Snarker|"Am I late?"]]
* In ''[[Daily Life with Monster Girl|Monster Girl Quest]]'', Luka gives two of these, one in the first chapter of the game and one in the second.
** The first one is directed at Lily, a girl who responded to her village [[All of the Other Reindeer|ostracizing her for her magic]] by raping her family to death and then started a series of witch hunts. When she tries to justify her actions with her [[Freudian Excuse]], Luka {{spoiler|explains that he has the ''exact same background'', but ''he'' decided to be a hero}}. [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown|While beating the crap out of her]].
** The second is at the end of the second game, and is directed at {{spoiler|Alice, Luka's friend and also the Monster Lord}}. Luka refuses to let her {{spoiler|get herself killed to fulfill her mother's dream (which was exactly what her mother did, until Alice slaughtered her killers and screwed everything up)}}, and also points out that {{spoiler|her mother's plan was wrong in the first place, since any plan that can fall apart because you underestimated one little girl clearly wasn't ever going to work}}.
