Line 354:
* In [[Odin Sphere]], most of the villains are fighting against each other and the heroes are either third parties or unwitting pawns. Odin {{spoiler|wants to bring the end of the world and lead the survivors into a new age}}, the trio of wizards want the same thing and also {{spoiler|get revenge on Odin for betraying them before he became a king}}, King Valentine is simply so broken that he wants to end everything while also wanting {{spoiler|revenge on Odin for seducing his daughter}}, the Fairy Queen (the least evil of the factions) wants a world ending weapon that she uses to keep her people alive, Odin's general makes it no secret he's trying for a coup, Melvin {{spoiler|plans to become the new leader of the faries and used Oswald as a test subject for a weapon he wanted to mass produce}}, the Queen of Death is only interested in running her place as she sees fit {{spoiler|and making Oswald her slave, per contract}}, {{spoiler|the last king of Titania}} wants out of the afterlife to cause some chaos, the Fire King desperately wants Gwendolyn as his wife and is willing to kill anyone in his way and {{spoiler|Ingway}} wants to {{spoiler|kill Odin more than anyone for making his life a living hell}}. Oh, and {{spoiler|Griselda, Gwendolyn's sister, manipulated her and Oswald into helping kickstart the end of the world in ghost form}}. If you couldn't guess, most of these people end up clawing at one another's necks before the game is over.
* ''[[The Witcher]]'', while doesn't always steer close to the novels, maintains the [[Grimdark]] part. To quote [[Nerf Now|Jo Pereira‏]] - "Witcher is full of hard decisions. Help the cannibal witches or side with the murderous tree?"
* In ''[[Mortal Kombat 11]]'', the Joker (who appears as a [[Guest Fighter]]) is ''really'' angry at Shang Tsung for stealing his act - a reference to ''[[Mortal Kombat 9]]'' where one of Shang Tsung's Fatalities is a reskinned version of the Joker's from ''[[Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe (Video Game)|Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe]]''. [[Batman (film)|"Never rub another man's rhubarb!"]] snarls the Clown Prince of Crime.
* ''[[Helldivers]]'': Super Earth is an autocracy wearing a democratic [[Paper-Thin Disguise]], but given that the cutscene for losing shows [[Earth-Shattering Kaboom|the destruction of Super Earth]] with all the civilian casualties that likely entails, the enemy aliens are hardly lily-white freedom fighter types.
