** In ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance'' Xigbar proves just how much he ''doesn't'' get it by trying to induce a HeroicBSOD in Sora by telling him that since his friends are his power, Sora has no real power of his own. This only manages to affirm Sora's belief in ThePowerOfFriendship, since that means he's part of something much bigger. Xigbar is utterly baffled by Sora's reaction and pulls a VillainExitStageLeft.

*** Ansem, in his final attempt to corrupt Riku, fails to do so because he cannot comprehend Riku's true motivation, something his ArchEnemy calls him out on. Ansem, as Xehanort, was once a Keyblade wielder, but then dove into the darkness and coveted its power at the cost of everything else in his life. As such, he's unable to understand why Riku, even after plunging into the depths of darkness and realizing how his power comes from it as well, still wants to fight to defend the light and prove his worth as a Keyblade wielder. Unlike Ansem, Riku never lost sight of what matters to him most: his friends, what Ansem himself threw away so long ago.

** In ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV''[='s=] ''Endwalker'' expansion, [[spoiler:the Garlean Empire, ravaged by civil war and a madman turning their soldiers into monsters, cannot understand why the Eorzean Alliance would want to help them. This is because they have been constantly told that the Eorzeans are nothing more than savages that needed to be conquered or eradicated and a load of patriotic fervor heaped on top of that. Thus, when their mortal enemies come to help them with no terms or strings attached, they freak out. It takes a few incidents to get it through their head]].

** Shepard usually wins for two reasons: first, the [[EldritchAbomination Reapers]] underestimate just how though they and the rest of the team is, but second and more importantly because they can't comprehend the fact that Shepard is willing to throw themself into almost certain death for the sake of others.

* ''VideoGame/AITheSomniumFiles'': Not only can the BigBad comprehend good, but they are also fiercely opposed to doing so when given the opportunity.[[spoiler: Saito became a SerialKiller because his brain couldn't produce oxytocin, the hormone that encourages trust, empathy, and social behavior, and substituted it with the adrenaline rush he got while killing. He eventually swaps bodies with Date, who doesn't have the brain defect, on a whim... and is ''horrified'' to find out that normal people feel ''guilty'' after committing murder. He spends most of the game desperately trying to get his body back so he can indulge in guiltless murder again.]]
