Brother-Sister Incest/Video Games: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

* Though it was [[Bowdlerized]] to remove as many references to incest as possible, the idea was too central to the plot of ''[[Drakengard]]'' to throw it out completely. The game has only one or two allusions to it.

* The new character in ''[[Tekken]] 6'', Miguel Caballero Rojo, adheres this trope in an one-sided way. When his sister announced she's going to get married, he became so furious he almost planned to kill her fiancé. Unfortunately, during the wedding, there's a sudden attack, and [[Dead Little Sister|that killed his sister]]. [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]] occurs soon after for Miguel.

* In ''[[Max Payne (series)|Max Payne]]'', one of the [[Mook|Mooks]] is watching a soap opera where a woman reveals to her lover that she is... his long lost sister!

* Taka and his sister Kana from the [[Visual Novel]] ''[[Kana: Little Sister]]'' become attracted to each other more and more as time progresses. She is also [[Ill Girl|terminally ill]], so the makers have enough material for a lot of melodrama. And boy, [[Tear Jerker|do they deliver]] - no punches pulled here!

* In ''Jagged Alliance 2'' you can run into a family of heavily inbred rednecks. One of them will tell you that the inbreeding is what keeps them strong. For some reason they have run out of women though and want you to give them one of your party in exchange for guns.

* Janus and Lela in ''Divine Divinity''. And they have sex when they are like only (pre-)teens (Don't worry, it's told to you, not seeing it).

** And with what the plot of ''[[Mega Man 10]]'' is...It's only going to get odder.

** Actually, the Legends games take place a while after the classic games, and the Battle Network games take place in an alternate timeline where Dr. Light helped make the internet, as opposed to being a roboticist.

** Which, of course, never happened, because Otacon was <s>sensible</s> {{spoiler|sleeping with his stepmother/E.E.'s mother}}.

* The [[Visual Novel]] ''[[Lamune]]'' has a romantic path for Suzuka, the one-year-younger sister of male lead Kenji. (This troper does not know if the visual novel ever makes a [[Not Blood Siblings]] reveal.) The anime adaptation portrays their relationship as a non-romantic sibling relationship, since it follows Nanami's route, though the trope gets poked fun at once when Hikari teases Suzuka about being jealous of [[Victorious Childhood Friend|Nanami]].

* In ''[[Viva Pinata]]'', (despite how it looks) this can happen veeery easily. Heck, getting the Fourheads practically requires it! (Unless you want to put in way more effort than necessary, of course.)

** No wonder it's a mutant... product of repeated incest, ''and'' you have to {{spoiler|bash its egg open early.}}

* In the ''[[Fallout 3]]'' add-on ''Point Lookout'', the Swampfolk are a race of redneck mutants that used to be humans, but through inbreeding they mutated into violent and primitive humanoids.

** The small hamlet of Andale in the Capital Wasteland seems harmless enough, with two cheery families. Then you talk to young Junior Smith who tells you that he doesn't want to marry the little girl, Jenny Wilson, across the street. More than it just being a case of cootie-fears, he reveals that part of the reason it's weird is because his father is the brother to Jenny's father which makes him "... something, I'm not sure what." If for some horrifying reason you're not bothered by the fact that {{spoiler|Andale's residents have been, for the last few incestuous generations, killing wastelanders foolish enough to travel within their territory and then eating them}}, then you can learn from Martha Wilson that the old coot living next to them is father to both her and Linda Smith (Junior's mother).

* In ''[[The Sims 2]]'' half of the neighborhood of Strangetown is made up of the Curious Family. But since EAxis didn't bother to set all the relationships correctly, many players have unwittingly married the Curious brothers to their older half-sisters, Lola and Chloe (Curious) Singles. It's also possible for the sisters to have romantic interactions (without cheats) with their surviving father (PT #9 Smith), and now that this troper thinks about it, probably everyone they're related to that's old enough. Thanks, EAxis.

** Could be a [[Squick|squicky]] [[Easter Egg]]; Strangetown, Curious family... Makes you think.

* Played with and ultimately {{spoiler|averted}} in ''Cute Knight'', where the PC can either marry Prince Kirelan or take her royal position as his sister, Princess Alexandra. But it turns out {{spoiler|she's not really Alexandra, she's just faking}}. But ''then'' it turns out {{spoiler|that she IS a princess by blood after all, she's Alexandra's older sister}}. But ''THEN'' you realise that {{spoiler|it's okay, because Kirelan's adopted}}!

** However, it is arguably canon that Jin has the hots for Ragna anyway.

*** [[Jossed]] as of ''Continuum Shift''. Jin was just driven batshit crazy by [[Troll|Terumi]] [[Complete Monster|Yuuki]] and [[Evil Weapon|Yukianesa]]. [[Fiery Redhead|Tsubaki]] is the one he [[Jerkass|somewhat]] cares for. Not that this revelation will stop the fangirls... OR the game developers, for that matter. They are having ''way'' too much fun playing on Jin's [[Yandere]]-ish tendencies.

* Maybe not so obvious as other examples but in Pokémon you are encouraged to breed between two Pokémon that came from the same mother and/or father if you want to have good stats [[Lamarck Was Right|because stats moves to the child]]. ''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver|Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal]]'' ("Generation Two," since they came after ''[[Pokémon Red and Blue|Red/Blue]]''/''[[No Export for You|Green]]''/''[[Updated Rerelease|Yellow]]'' but before ''[[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire|Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald]]'') did not allow this, but subsequent games in the series do. This is not something that in-game characters suggest; this is a community-suggested tip.

* Elis and Hiroki in [[Canvas 2]], though of course she's actually his cousin.

* There are no specific examples, but this was mentioned in [[Bully (video game)|Bully]] by the preppy girl when she talked about marrying her cousin. A baffled Jimmy asked about that and she replied that it used to be between brothers and sisters before it was outlawed.

* Yuuto's friends tease him about being a siscon in ''[[Eien no Aselia]].'' But it's actually subverted and he's simply overprotective. Kaori does not have a proper ending, though she has fallen in love with ''him.''

* Some fans have cried incest in ''[[The Legend of Zelda CDI Games|Link: The Faces of Evil]]'' about Link and Zelda's relationship, but others point out that [[Not Blood Siblings|Link is not Harkinian's son,]] or he'd be called Prince Link.

* There is a skit in [[Tales of the Abyss]] in which Natalia and Anise question Tear about her 'type' of guy. Although unknown to the later two about their real relationship, they seem to think it quite obvious that Tear was attracted to Van, which caused said melodist to freak out and run away from the conversation.
