* [[Humans Are Insane]]: Given all the horrors seen across the odyssey of three games (and adjacent DLC's), comic book content, some print literature coupling in a host of spin-off material. One would think it best our hero; Isaac Clarke, amongst others, is better off sticking to slaughtering and/or eviscerating undead terrors than ever trying to buddy up with other still living human beings throughout the full story. Especially given that a great many of what little survivors of a plague of Necromorphs remain tend to be (A) not long for this world as the few good, actually stable people either [[Too Good for This Sinful Earth|end up dead]] by their wounds or [[Cruel and Unusual Death|viscerally butchered]] by the undead monstrosities in full viewing glory, (B) poor unfortunate souls found still living beforehand [[Driven to Madness|turned mad]] (many of whom being [[Driven to Suicide]] as a consequence) by the either the [[Brown Note|Marker's effect]] or the horrors they were beholden to, (C) all a bunch of [[Ignorant of Their Own Ignorance|ignorant]] or [[It's All About Me|self-righteous]] [[Slime Ball|slimemolds]] whom claim to act on the behalf of all humanity or are simply no account good for nothings who think they know better when they really don't. I.e. self serving sociopaths like in EarthGov relating to [[Smug Snake|Kendra]] [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing|Daniels]], the movement built on delusionality of Unitology pertaining to [[Mad Scientist|Challus Mercer]] or Daina, radicalistic omnicidal suicider fascists in The Circle which consists of [[Know-Nothing Know-It-All|Danik]] and [[Suicidal Lemmings|his zealots]]. Needless to say, there isn't much stock to be placed in general psyche balance regarding characters within the franchise's setting.
