=== The video game: ===
* [[Acceptable Targets]]: Surprisingly, despite the majority of the enemies being Soviet soldiers (either past or alternate-present), most of the recordings and flashbacks do quite a bit to humanize the Russians in general. We see recordings of a couple deeply in love, leftovers of friends playing chess, teachers taking care of schoolchildren, and so on.
** However, the evil masters of Katorga-12 were also intentionally exposing the children to E99 by putting it in their milk just to see the results, so while the people in general were human beings, the Soviet war machine was definitely run by evil bastards.
Line 15 ⟶ 14:
** [[Paranoia Fuel]]: The first time you meet the "Echo" Zek, he jumps and takes a stab at you, after which he vanishes. If you have the Spikeshot rifle, you can use the thermal scope to look behind you... and see that ''he's still there''. He stalks you for most of that chapter, and most people don't even know he's there.
* [[Player Punch]]: Barisov's ending. As the details start slowly adding up, Devlin, who made himself fairly useful in fights, voiced the confusion the player was likely feeling in the early part of the game and was {{spoiler|eventually murdered by Demichev, and is now alive and well, thanks to you,}} says, "Isn't that right, '' {{spoiler|Comrade}}?''" This moment tells you what's going on before {{spoiler|the statue does, and it's your own buddy obliviously saying [[You Can't Go Home Again]]}}.

=== The roleplay: ===
* [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]]: [http://singularityrpg.dreamwidth.org/475814.html?thread=51087014#cmt51087014 Rattmann tries to look on the bright side for once.]
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: The fates of anyone succumbing to the Black Rock plague, but ''especially'' [[Homestuck (Webcomic)|Vriska Serket and John Egbert]]. thanks to their [[Immortality]] justifying they could still be killed, but it not counting unless the death was [[Heroic Sacrifice|heroic]] or [[Karmic Death|just]], they ended up dying repeatedly and being revived constantly, with the plague still intact. [[Kill It With Fire|and then Original Universe Dave burnt their house down, with them still inside.]]
** The SHODAN+Dead Space events. See [[Body Horror]].
* [[Tear Jerker]]: Let's put it this way, a "Gamzee Made Me Cry" thread showed up on anoncomm during the black rock event.
** Rattmann tends to generate these.
