History LaserGuidedKarma / VideoGames

** One of the Wrong Ends of ''Blood Covered'' hits Ayumi ''hard'' when she decides that she wants to escape with Satoshi but leave Naomi in the cursed school. First, she destroys Naomi's paper doll scrap. Later on, she [[spoiler:kills Naomi to get a replacement scrap and MurderTheHypotenuse at the same time]]. Shortly afterwards, she discovers that [[spoiler:Satoshi has fully [[TheCorruption darkened]] (something that, unbeknown to her, she indirectly caused), making her actions AllForNothing. Then she realizes that she's the only one left alive... and the ritual to escape the cursed school requires at least ''two'' people, meaning that by killing Naomi, she just killed any chance to go back home]].

* In ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'', [[spoiler: Sans]] weaponizes this against you in the Genocide Route, [[ThatOneBoss along with breaking practically every rule in the battle system.]] At one point in the fight, he'll offer to spare you and give you a hug, saying he knows there's some good in you somewhere. '''[[ISurrenderSuckers He's]] [[OneHitKill damn]] [[HaveANiceDeath lying.]]''' What makes this Laser-Guided Karma is this is the exact same way you killed his NiceGuy brother Papyrus earlier in the game. If you are on the Genocide path when you meet him, he always spares you right away, hoping to turn you around. And you killed him in one hit. YouBastard[[labelnote:*]]Unless you subscribe to the idea that Sans's spare is a SecretTestOfCharacter; he knows that even if he kills you, you'll just reload to fight him again, and ''next time'' you won't fall for his trap, should you reach that point again. ''But,'' if there really '''is''' some good in you after all you ''won't'' reload and start the game over, hopefully for a more merciful run this time around where his brother, and everyone else you killed, are spared instead. He does say as much after he mocks you for falling for it.[[/labelnote]]

* ''VideoGame/{{Fallout}}'':

*** In the downloadable content ''Dead Money'', you spend most of the time trying to access a secret pre-war fortress of technology for the insane former elder of the Brotherhood of Steel, Elijah. At the end of the [=DLC=], when you finally access the Sierra Madre Vault, you have the option of talking him into coming down, then simply leaving. Elijah will walk into the vault and try to access what's inside. Then he'll accidentally trigger an event on the computer that traps him inside. There's no way out of there now, he's trapped in there until he dies.
*** The hordes of nightmarish Ghost People are victims of karma. The entire construction crew that was building the Villa around the Casino was pulling a scam; they were cutting every corner possible to make the flimsiest, least safe town ever constructed, and saving a ton of money in the process. Partially as a result of their shoddy construction, a dangerous toxic cloud began building up in the ventilation systems. After the bombs fell, with no one to turn off or repair the vents, the Cloud spewed out unstopped for centuries, and the construction workers can be found shambling around the Villa in a horrid parody of life, still wearing their hazmat suits.\\\
The hazmat suits themselves are also part of the whole karma play. In order to get back on the costs of the Villa's creation, the client got in contact with a group of crazy amoral scientists, who used the Villa as a test lab for their newest creations, one of them being the hazmat suits, which were made of an experimental material and could seal people inside them because contact with the cloud quickly corroded the seals. This means that while the guests and staff all died horrible but comparatively quick deaths, the workers who were trapped in the cloud were unable to get out of the suits because of the client having to get back money that the workers displaced, and as a result, they became the Ghost People.

*** [[TheHorde Caesar's Legion]] don't like women very much, and will tell your female Courier to her face that she should StayInTheKitchen. She can potentially: Kill the frumentarii and all his bodyguards in Nipton; kill all the elite Legion assassins sent to do her in; wipe out the slaving camp at Cottonwood Cove; slaughter various Legion patrols; lead the NCR to take the town of Nelson from them; repel an attack on Bitter Springs; destroy the Fiends and kill all their leaders, and dig out the Legion spy at Camp [=McCarran=]. [[OverlyLongGag After you reach Vegas itself]], she can kill Alerio after he tries to give you the Mark of Caesar, foil the Omertas' plan to attack the Strip, sever the Legion's alliance with the Great Khans, unite all the factions of the Mojave against them either under the banner of the NCR or under an Independent Vegas, upgrade and activate an entire army of elite killbots sitting right underneath their main fort, personally rampage through their base, slaughtering their troops by the truckload and even possibly killing Caesar himself, and even launch nuclear strikes at their cities out East. Several characters, such as Astor, relish in the irony of ''[[OneManArmy one woman]]'' single-handedly breaking the backs of an ''entire civilisation'' of hardcore rapist misogynists.
