* Legend has it that the decision to {{spoiler|[[It Was His Sled|kill off Aerith]]}} in ''[[Final Fantasy VII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy VII]]'', as well as its centring around themes of death and rebirth, was inspired by the death of Hironobu Sakaguchi's mother. While this isn't true, his feelings that death shouldn't be portrayed as clinical and sterile and 'laudable', that it should be shown as sudden, brutal, and tragic, did influence the decision of how she should be killed off, and finalized the choice to kill {{spoiler|her}} other than the other choice, {{spoiler|Barret}}, as it would have a [[Player Punch|greater impact on the viewer]].
* The final boss of ''[[Earthbound (Video Game)|Earthbound]]'' was inspired by a traumatic experience Shigesato Itoi had during his childhood, of seeing what he thought was a rape scene in a movie as a [[Harmful to Minors|very young child]]. The final boss's dialogue ("[[Does This Remind You of Anything|It hurts... I feel... happy...]]") was based on dialogue Itoi recalled from the movie.
