10----
11* ''VideoGame/AceCombat''
12** ''VideoGame/AceCombatZeroTheBelkanWar''
13*** In the mission "Mayhem", Pixy gives one to PJ after he announces that he fights for peace.
14---->'''PJ:''' I fight for peace. That’s what I’m here for.\
15'''Pixy:''' While you’re up here fighting for peace, tons of blood are being shed on the ground. [[SarcasmMode Some peace kid.]]\
16'''PJ:''' And I’m here to put an end to that.\
17'''Pixy:''' [[ArmorPiercingQuestion You think you can]] [[StartXToStopX stop bloodshed by shedding more blood?]] Flying around with all of those ideals swimming in your head is gonna get you killed.
18*** In the mission "The Demon Lord of the Round Table", Gault 1 (Soldier Ace), Sorcerer 1 (Mercenary Ace), and Wizard 1 (Knight Ace), give one to PJ about how the existence of borders and nations are the cause of all conflicts, and they all seek to erase such concepts from the world.
19*** The FinalBoss of the game, [[spoiler:Cipher’s former {{Wingman}}, Pixy]], gives one to Cipher, about how he probably thinks that he’s invincible for surviving a long time on the battle, and about how the borders of the world are what was responsible for the cause of war, and seeks to erase borders with the use of the V2 missile.
20** Near the end of ''VideoGame/AceCombat7SkiesUnknown'', when Dr. Schroeder is revealed to [[spoiler:be a Belkan, and]] had been collecting data from each sortie that Mihaly had been taking from to [[spoiler:not only]] improve Erusea’s drone army, [[spoiler:but also get revenge on Osea for Belka’s defeat]], Ionela, one of Mihaly’s granddaughters, destroys the data chip that contained the data, and gives Schroeder a scathing speech about how his [[spoiler:inability to let go of Belka’s defeat, and his]] work had brought nothing but chaos to the Usean continent.
21--->'''Ionela:''' [[ArmorPiercingQuestion Is this]] [[spoiler:[[ArmorPiercingQuestion for Belka? Or]]]] [[ArmorPiercingQuestion for Erusea?]] My grandfather had only one wish. To continue soaring through the endless skies. That was the only place he felt alive. But I don’t even have a country to call home, let alone the sky. The Black Forest, the lake...they are no longer mine. Even though those lands were cherished by my late mother. We have to learn to put that sense of nostalgia behind us, and behave like mature adults.
22* In ''VideoGame/AlphaProtocol'', if [[PlayerCharacter Mike]] has chosen more suave stances than aggressive or professional ones, he can give [[TheDragon Conrad Marburg]] one. [[spoiler:It's one of three ways to kill him and the only way to do so in Rome.]]
23-->'''Mike:''' No, you're the one who's messed up. Maybe [[BigBad Leland]] should put your octogenarian ass out to pasture with the other cattle. He will anyway eventually, if only to bury his dirty little secrets.\
24'''Marburg:''' You understand nothing Thorton. Just the way the U.S. trains all their agents.\
25'''Mike:''' Does Leland send you out for dry cleaning, too? Maybe shoot your chauffeur on the way? Chief of Security for Halbech -- talk about a ''joke''. Yeah, I know all about Deus Vult and that abortion of an op in the Middle East. Poor Agent Marburg believed dead...maybe wishing he was dead. Boo. Fucking. Hoo. And what has you life been since then: [[spoiler:setting bombs for Halbech and murdering bystanders in museums.]] How fucked up and empty do you have to be to lower yourself to that level? ''[Mike continues, as Marburg begins to look more and more upset]'' You know what, Marburg, at the end of the day - at least I'm not somebody's lapdog. Enjoy living off Leland's scraps. You don't even know what trust and loyalty are. Or does the fact that I didn't go that same route when I was abandoned really get under your skin, '''''[[FirstNameUltimatum Conrad]]'''''.\
26'''Marburg:''' [[VillainousBreakdown ... ''I will]] '''[[VillainousBreakdown end]]''' [[VillainousBreakdown you, Thorton.'']]
27* The Jabberwock of ''VideoGame/AmericanMcGeesAlice'' delivers a ''scathing'' one to Alice, calling her out for not saving her family from being killed in a house fire. Considering the Jabberwock has become the manifestation of Alice's crippling SurvivorGuilt, it's all too appropriate.
28-->'''Jabberwock:''' You selfish, misbegotten and ''unnatural child!'' ''You'' smelled the smoke, but you were in dreamland taking tea with your friends; you couldn't be ''bothered''. ''Your'' room was protected and spared... while your family upstairs ''roasted'' in an inferno of '''''incredible horror'''''.
29* ''Franchise/AssassinsCreed'':
30** In [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedI the first game]], Al Mualim chews out Altaïr for his disobedience of the creed in ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedI'' after the repulsion of the Templar invasion of Masyaf.
31--->'''Al Mualim:''' You did well to drive Robert [de Sable] from here. His force is broken. It should be a long while before he troubles us again. Tell me, do you know why it is you were successful?\
32'''Altaïr:''' ...\
33'''Al Mualim:''' You ''listened''. Were it that you’d listened in Solomon’s Temple, Altaïr, all of this would have been avoided.\
34'''Altaïr:''' I did as I was asked.\
35'''Al Mualim:''' No, you did as you ''pleased''! Malik has told me of the arrogance you displayed- your disregard for our ways!\
36'''Altaïr:''' ''[being restrained by two Assassin guards]'' What are you doing?!\
37'''Al Mualim:''' There are rules. We are nothing if we do not abide by the Assassyun’s Creed: three simple tenets, ''which you seem to forget''. I will remind you. First and foremost: “Stay your blade-“\
38'''Altaïr:''' ”-[[NeverHurtAnInnocent from the flesh of an innocent.]]” I know.\
39'''Al Mualim:''' ''[[[BitchSlap backhands Altaïr]]]'' ''And stay your tongue!'' Unless I give you leave to use it. If you are so familiar with this tenet, then why did you kill the old man inside the Temple? ''He was innocent!'' He did not ''need'' to die. Your insolence knows no bounds. Make humble your heart, child, ''or I swear I’ll tear it from you with my own hands!'' The second tenet is that which gives us strength: “Hide in plain sight.” Let the people mask you such that you become one with the crowd. Do you remember? Because as I hear it, you chose to expose yourself, drawing attention ''before'' you struck! The third and final tenet, the worst of all your betrayals: “Never compromise the Brotherhood.” Its meaning should be obvious. Your actions must never bring harm upon us, direct or indirect! Yet your selfish act beneath Jerusalem placed us all in ''danger!'' Worse still, ''you brought the enemy to our home! Every man we’ve lost today was lost '''because of you!''''' ''[draws a small dagger]'' [[ApologeticAttacker I’m sorry, truly I am.]] But I cannot abide a traitor.\
40'''Altaïr:''' I am ''not'' a traitor.\
41'''Al Mualim:''' Your actions indicate otherwise. And so you leave me no choice. Peace be upon you, Altaïr. ''[stabs Altaïr in the stomach]''
42** Connor from ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIII'' gives out one to both Haytham for hiding the information that [[spoiler:George Washington]] is responsible for the attack on his village and hiding the fact that [[spoiler:he intends on doing it again]] and on [[spoiler:Washington]] himself for what happened.
43--->'''Connor:''' Enough! Who did what and why must wait. My people come first.\
44'''Haytham:''' Then let's be off.\
45'''Connor:''' No! You and I are finished.\
46'''Haytham:''' Son...\
47'''Connor:''' Do you think me so soft that by calling me "son" I might change my mind? How long did you sit on this information? Or am I to believe you discovered it now? My mother's blood may stain another's hands, but Charles Lee is no less a monster, and all he does, he does by your command. A warning to you both -- choose to follow me or oppose me and I will kill you.
48* In ''VideoGame/BaldursGateII'', Nalia gives one to Hexxat, a party member added in the Enhanced Edition.
49-->'''Nalia:''' [[YouMonster You're an evil woman]]. You know, you talk as though the world has done you some great wrong, and the women you killed somehow deserved what they got. Do you know what I think? [[YouKeepTellingYourselfThat I think you're lying to yourself.]] Because it's easier than facing up to the truth of your own existence. I think you're pathetic. And this conversation is over.
50* ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamAsylum'' and its sequel ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamCity'' combine this quite liberally with HaveANiceDeath, wherein dying during a confrontation with one of the supervillains results in them mocking you at the GameOver screen. There's also a scathing Reason You Suck Speech when you are about to confront Hugo Strange.
51-->'''Hugo Strange:''' Stop right there, Batman! We need to talk, and I know you wouldn't be able to live with yourself if your actions caused this poor man to die... I have a question for you. Before my arrival, this city was drowning under a tide of filth. Had you ever considered that all this is your fault? Your presence creates these animals. Like germs they spread. You created the environment that allowed the germ to mutate, to become stronger. Look at the Joker. Would he even exist if not for you? It must be depressing: all your sacrifices and yet you are the one to blame! Oh, this is beautiful! We have at long last defeated the great Batman! Soon, I will take my rightful place at my Master's side... We will rule over this world... So thank you, Batman, for all your help... Now... KILL HIM!
52* In ''VideoGame/BendyAndTheInkMachine'', there's a villain-to-villain speech in Chapter 4, where [[spoiler:Bertrum Piedmont calls out Joey Drew on speaking of dreams but then creating nightmares, as well as trying to steal Bertrum's glory in building Bendy Land. However, due to ThoroughlyMistakenIdentity, Bertrum delivers this speech to Henry instead of to Joey.]]
53* ''VideoGame/BioShock1'': After working your way into Andrew Ryan's inner sanctum in Rapture Central Control, Ryan lays it all out for you.
54-->'''Ryan:''' The assassin has overcome my final defense, and now he's come to murder me. In the end, what separates a man from a slave? Money? Power? No... A man chooses, a slave obeys. [[spoiler:You think you have memories. A farm, a family, an airplane, a crash, and then this place. [[FakeMemories Was there really a family?]] Did that airplane crash? Or... was it hijacked? Forced down, forced down by something less than a man, [[ManchurianAgent something bred to sleepwalk through life]] until they are [[TriggerPhrase activated by a simple phrase, spoken by their kindly master.]] Was a '''''man''''' sent to kill, or a '''''slave?''''' A man chooses. A slave obeys. Come in. Stop....would you kindly? ''[you stop]'' "Would you kindly?" Powerful phrase. ''Familiar'' phrase? ''[a montage of all the times Atlas has said "would you kindly?" plays]'' Sit, would you kindly? ''[you sit]'' Stand... would you kindly? ''[you stand]'' Run. ''[you run]'' Stop. ''[you stop]'' Turn. ''[you turn]'' A man chooses. A slave obeys. ''[he hands you his golf club]'' [[BetterToDieThanBeKilled Kill!]] ''[[[ButThouMust WHACK!]]]'' A man... chooses... ''[[[CutsceneBoss WHACK!]]]'' a slave... obeys... ''[[[NightmareFuel WHACK!]]]'' '''''OBEY!''''' ''[one final strike, and you embed the golf club into his skull, [[SelfMadeOrphan killing him]]]'']]
55** Then, as if you ''didn't'' get [[ThisLoserIsYou the message]] the first time, [[spoiler: Frank Fontaine]] himself tells it to you even more.
56--->'''[[spoiler:Fontaine]]:''' [[spoiler:I gotta say, I had a lot of business partners in my life, but you ... 'Course, the fact that you were genetically conditioned to bark like a cocker-spaniel when I said "Would you kindly?" might have had something to do with it. Ah, well. Now, as soon as that machine finished processing the genetic key you just fished off Ryan, I'm gonna run Rapture, tits to toes. You've been a pal, but you know what they say. Never mix business with friendship. Thanks for everything, kid. Don't forget to say hi to Ryan for me.]]
57** At the very end, if you have harvested more than two Little Sisters, a very disappointed Dr. Tenenbaum will deliver one to you for your crime. If you harvested them ''all'', she delivers an identical speech, only instead of sounding sad, she sounds ''pissed''.
58--->'''Tenenbaum:''' [[spoiler:They offered you everything, yes? And in return, you gave them what I have come to expect of you - brutality. You took what you wanted. All the ADAM. All the power. And Rapture trembled. But in the end, even Rapture was not enough for you. Your father was terrified that the world would try to steal the secrets of his city, but not you, for you now have stolen the terrible secrets of the world.]]
59** In ''VideoGame/BioShockInfinite'', Booker [=DeWitt=] gives one to [[spoiler:Zachary Hale Comstock, while bashing his skull into a fountain.]]
60--->'''Booker:''' She's your daughter, you son of a bitch! And you abandoned her! Was it worth it? Huh? Did you get what you wanted? Tell me! Tell me!\
61'''Elizabeth:''' Booker!\
62[[spoiler:'''Comstock:''']] It... is... finished.\
63'''Booker:''' Nothing is finished! You lock her up for her whole life...\
64'''Elizabeth:''' Booker... BOOKER!\
65'''Booker:''' You cut off her finger, and you put it on me!\
66'''Elizabeth:''' Booker, stop it!
67* The BigBad of ''Franchise/BlazBlue'', [[FauxAffablyEvil Hazama]]/[[ForTheEvulz Yuuki Terumi]], seems to have a raging hard-on for this trope, as evidenced by the great enjoyment he gets from the very long and very brutal speeches he gives to the AntiHero... He doesn't limit this treatment to the AntiHero alone, either. To Hazama, ANYONE with convictions, ideologies and/or goals to deconstruct, ridicule, reconstruct and ridicule even worse, is fair game, be they emotional, misled teenagers; mature but desperate doctors; eldritch abominations or even children. And yet, even with his track record, there are three people he learned this doesn't work on:
68** In Rachel's bad ending, after a prolonged fight with her, he proceeds to sink her into the ground and lecture her in his own inimitable fashion. Rather than sit there and take it, she snarks back - and [[BerserkButton hits something sensitive]] when she says that Ragna, [[ButtMonkey for all his faults]], [[BoringInsult is a more interesting man than Terumi]]. He responds by kicking her teeth in.
69** In Taokaka's CS ending, Tao shows up to save Good Guy (the aforementioned Ragna), only to find him bleeding out near Terumi. Terumi does his best to troll her, oh does he, but [[TooDumbToFool she has no idea what he's talking about]], and all his effort is flat out wasted. Driven to frustration, he decides to troll the "damned cat" in a language [[ColdBloodedTorture she can understand]].
70** In Makoto's CS Arcade ending, Terumi tries to troll Makoto in an attempt to break her after they fight to a stalemate - she has no way of destroying him, but she just refuses to die - only for her to retort his efforts with inquiries about his designs for Noel. He eventually gets around to mocking Noel's humanity as well as her own, but all it earns him is a "[[ShutUpHannibal Shut the hell up!]]" This doesn't stop him from talking, but since he can't finish the job, he evokes Mu-12 to do it for him. The last we see of Makoto is her [[DefiantToTheEnd bracing herself to face off against]] [[spoiler:[[BrainwashedAndCrazy her best friend Noel]].]]
71** Hakumen gives one towards his past self, [[spoiler:Jin Kisaragi]], after defeating him in his ''VideoGame/BlazBlueContinuumShift'' story.
72--->'''Hakumen:''' This is the best you can muster? Did you really think to beat me with such a grievous wound?\
73'''[[spoiler:Jin]]:''' Are you... really Hakumen of the Six Heroes? Gah.\
74'''Hakumen:''' You still seem unaware of your true strength.\
75'''[[spoiler:Jin]]:''' My... true strength?\
76'''Hakumen:''' No, perhaps you do sense it, but you choose to turn it only to selfish deeds. You shame both of us with your actions.\
77'''[[spoiler:Jin]]:''' Are you talking about the Power of Order? That Jubei guy was going on about all of that as well, but it means nothing to me. Order? Balance? Why the hell should I give a damn?!
78* In ''VideoGame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'', Aurelia Hammerlock, despite being one of the most bloodthirsty Vault Hunters, is also the one [[EvenEvilHasStandards most willing to tell Jack that even she finds him appalling]] after Jack [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope leaps off the slippery slope into full-on, sadistic madness]].
79-->Right. That's it. I had my fun, Jack, so I shall leave you with this one final piece of wisdom that your plasticine face will surely ignore: Kill yourself. Darling, I'm evil. Let's not kid ourselves, but you. You're just something else entirely. You're far better off opening the throat beneath that ludicrously soul-patched face than suffer the bloody karma that I imagine the universe has in store for you. And with that, I shall bid you adieu. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Additionally]], [[SophisticatedAsHell your breath smells like farts]].
80* ''VideoGame/BowserJrsJourney'': Roy gives this to Jr because of his signature selfishness and how he doesn't treat anyone with respect.
81* The defeat cutscene for the Forces of Chaos in ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar''. Eliphias [[NeverMyFault blames his subordinates for his defeat]], a Daemon Prince offers one of these as he [[YouHaveFailedMe disagrees.]]
82* ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'':
83** Whenever you/V makes a wrong choice, expect your companion to have this at you. However, the biggest one has to be from Johnny Silverhand if V decided to side with Arasaka to remove the relic from their head.
84--->'''V:''' Johnny, Hanako kept her word.\
85'''Johnny Silverhand:''' Lookin' at you now - reminds me of the moment we met. Still see that same small-time merc, little thief with her/his head in the clouds. Haven't changed a bit... Worse. Lots. You betrayed yourself.
86** And later in the same conversation, Johnny's parting words to V:
87--->'''Johnny Silverhand:''' 'Member what Dex asked you? "Quiet life or blaze of glory?"\
88'''V:''' Sure, I remember.\
89'''Johnny Silverhand:''' Shame you chose wrong. Damn shame.
90** If you chose the Reaper ending, Panam will be so mad that she will eviscerate V for their decision to off themself.
91--->'''Panam:''' Hey, V. Just wanted to tell you - I really hope there is an afterlife. Wanna know why? Because that means one day we'll see each other again. And I'm gonna make you 'wish' you never met me! What were you thinking, huh? Or did you think about nothing at all? Is that it? And after everything I did for you. Everything! And that's the first thing you go do, huh? Off yourself, that's what. If there is a hell, I hope you're in it. Rotting, burning, all of it. Bye.
92** In addition, if Kerry was V's companion, he will also respond, but unlike Panam, he sounds more disappointed than angry.
93--->'''Kerry:''' V, I heard what happened. You thought this'd solve everything, didn't ya? That this would adequately convey what you thought of this shitty world, huh? That's something that always pissed me off, y'know? This whole romanticizing suicide bullshit. Like we're all Romeo and Juliet. Cause you're so *fucking original*, aren't you? The only thing you proved is that you don't give a fuck about your friends. Am I right? What a fucking waste...
94* In ''VideoGame/DeadlyRoomsOfDeath: The Second Sky'', Beethro Budkin has some choice words for the former 1st Archivist upon meeting him in Forthcoming Way of Things: 2N, calling him out for his cruelty and complete disregard for not just the surfacers, but his ignorance of ''actual'' knowledge and his inability to even comprehend that his work isn't ever going to be truly complete.
95-->'''Beethro:''' Hey, ex-First Archivist, I saw your replacement a while back. I think he's probably not up to the job. Though, I still can't say I know what the job is exactly.\
96'''1st Archivist:''' He's a fool. The Archivists are lost with him. The Forthcoming Way of Things, though, that is what matters.\
97'''Beethro:''' Forthcoming Way of... Oh, yeah, your plan to kill off me and everybody else on the surface. Can I call it the FWOT? It's a very long name for something.\
98'''1st Archivist:''' When things are crucially important, it doesn’t matter if you take a long time to say what they are.\
99'''Beethro:''' Can I tell you why I disagree with your plan?\
100'''1st Archivist:''' I know why. You don’t want to die. And all the people you know--you don’t want them to die.\
101'''Beethro:''' Sure, that’s one reason. And a good one. But I’ve actually thought it through on some other levels.\
102'''1st Archivist:''' Yes, then. I shudder with curiosity over your great ponderings.\
103'''Beethro:''' You say it's all about knowledge, and that the surfacers never create any knowledge.\
104'''1st Archivist:''' Right. The surfacers just generate a neverending flow, a violent gush of... information. Noise!\
105'''Beethro:''' Which is not the same as knowledge. But why?\
106'''1st Archivist:''' It's either the repetition of well-understood patterns or simple randomization with no meaning behind it.\
107'''Beethro:''' Why do you say random? Things can’t be random. Everything that happens--there is some cause behind it.\
108'''1st Archivist:''' I've seen the anomaly reports from the surface. It's all just chaos. There is no possible insight to be gained from analysis. You might as well stare into the sun.\
109'''Beethro:''' You don't know that. You just jumped ahead of the ugly part there. This is where you made the mistake.\
110'''1st Archivist:''' The Empire is an Empire of Knowledge. It is our task to...\
111'''Beethro:''' Now you're just spouting back the old feel-good words. Think about it. You can't handle thinking your work will never be done, so don't lie to yourself. You are a ''destroyer'' of knowledge.\
112'''1st Archivist:''' ''[gasp]''
113* Ghaul, Dominus of the Red Legion in ''VideoGame/Destiny2'' has one mother of a speech delivered not just to the protagonist, but ''every last Guardian'' as he kicks the player around like a ragdoll.
114-->'''Ghaul:''' Do not look at me, CREATURE! You are ''weak.'' ''Undisciplined.'' Cowering behind walls. You're not brave; you've merely forgotten the fear of death. [[PreAsskickingOneLiner Allow me to reacquaint you.]]
115* Dante in ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry1'' gives one out to Trish when he learns she's created by Mundus to kill him.
116-->'''Dante:''' Don't come any closer you Devil! You may look like my mother but you're nowhere close to her. You have no soul! You have the face but you'll never have her fire!
117* Vergil in ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry3DantesAwakening'' gives one out to his brother Dante after stabbing him and defeating him in their first battle.
118-->'''Vergil:''' Foolishness, Dante, foolishness. Might controls everything. And without strength, you cannot protect anything. Let alone yourself.
119* ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry4'':
120** Dante [[https://youtu.be/j7a28MvHXHo?t=5m39s delivers a one-liner version to Agnus]] after defeating him, namely that the primary reason why Agnus lost was because he had "surrendered [his] humanity".
121** In the FinalBoss fight, Nero serves one to [[spoiler:Sanctus]] after the latter all but screams about why the Sword of Sparda wasn't giving him any power. Nero verbally smacks back at [[spoiler:Sanctus]] on the reason why the latter wasn't "worthy" of Sparda's power in the first place.
122--->'''Nero:''' Never could take those legends too literally. But I do know that Sparda had a heart. A heart that could love another person, a human. And ''that'' is what you lack.
123* ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry5'': Dante delivers a glorious one to Urizen during their final battle, explaining why he's still stronger than Urizen despite the latter's quest for power.
124-->'''Urizen:''' How... How are you so powerful?! [[EvilCannotComprehendGood You never lost]] ''[[EvilCannotComprehendGood anything]]''!\
125'''Dante:''' It's not about loss... Strength is a choice! Fighting like hell to protect what matters! You threw away everything you ever had! No wonder you have no true power!
126* ''VisualNovel/TheDevilOnGString'' - Absolutely epic one from [[spoiler: Gonzou]] to Maou, after the later [[spoiler: [[DyingMomentOfAwesome shot him in the lung with an explosive bullet with a high-powered sniper rifle]].]]
127-->"Listen up, 'Maou'! Evil owes its very existence to the vestigial remnants of mankind’s bestial nature! Someone who seeks salvation through revenge, someone such as you who attempts to save his pathetic existence through misdeeds will soon realize the fragility of his own evil! Join me in laughter!"
128* ''[[Franchise/DieHard Die Hard Vendetta]]'' features this in the last level, before the showdown with the BigBad, which also doubles as a ShoutOut to the classic movie ''Film/OnTheWaterfront'':
129-->'''Frontier:''' You don't understand! I could've had class. I could've been a contender. I could've been somebody. Instead of a bum. Which is what I am. Let's face it... it was you [=McClane=]... [[PunctuatedForEmphasis It... was...YOU!]]
130* ''VideoGame/DivinityOriginalSinII'': If the PlayerCharacter [[RelationshipValues angers]] a companion so much they leave for good, their parting words range from personal insults to quiet regret, but Fane takes the time to enumerate what a [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential cruel]], two-faced, crudely violent bastard the PC is.
131-->''"You make the world worse simply by moving through it, and I will not be a part of your caravan of misery any longer."''
132* In ''VideoGame/DotHackGU'', Haseo is spending the day exploring a field with Atoli. He's trying to make nice with her because he wants to recruit her for an upcoming tournament he needs to win. Eventually, Atoli's insistence on playing the game without violence, her philosophy of simply enjoying exploring the game and admiring the beauty of it, and the fact that her character model looks just like [[TheLostLenore Shiho]], Haseo finally snaps and rants at her about her mindset in an MMORPG.
133-->'''Haseo:''' "Slow down"? "Stop and to enjoy"? [[RageBreakingPoint Ha...haha! It's impossible! I can't take this anymore!]] What are you, an ''idiot''?! All of this... all of this, ''all of this!'' ...is nothing more than a bunch of computer data! It's just a bunch of fake stuff made by slapping textures on top of polygons! How the hell do you find any part of this made-up world beautiful?! There's only one thing that's real about this world, and that's us! The players! [[BloodKnight Getting stronger and defeating your opponent]], those are the ways that all of us keep connected! [[StopHavingFunGuys That's the way this game is played!]] What's wrong with that, huh?! ANSWER ME! ''[[ArmorPiercingQuestion TELL ME: WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?!]]''...[[GetOut leave.]] Damn, you're so irritating! Don't show your face again!
134* ''Franchise/DragonAge'':
135** In ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII'' the Arishok eventuallly gives one to the nobles of Kirkwall, in which he calls them out on their [[ItsAllAboutMe selfish]], [[GullibleLemmings foolish]] and [[DeathByMaterialism shallow]] nature, vowing to ''make'' them see the truth.
136--->''"Look at you! [[ItsAllAboutMe Like fat dathrasi you feed and feed, and complain only when your meal is interrupted!]] [[GullibleLemmings You do not look up.]] [[DeathByMaterialism You do not see that the grass is bare]]. You are blind; '''I will make you see!'''"''
137** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'':
138*** The Nightmare Demon, which thrives on people's fears and doubts. The entire time he's in the game he's giving these to the different companions and others that you have with you. Given the insecurity that [[spoiler:s/he]] had already been visibly showing in the story, the one he gives to [[spoiler:Hawke]] is [[KickTheDog particularly harsh]].
139---->'''Nightmare:''' Did you think you mattered, [[spoiler:Hawke]]? Did you think anything you ever did mattered? [[FailureHero You couldn't even save your city]]. How could you expect to strike down a god? [[spoiler:Anders/Fenris/Isabela/Merril/Sebastian]] is going to die, just like your family, and anyone you ever cared about.
140*** The one it gives to [[spoiler: Loghain]] is pretty brutal, albeit [[VillainHasAPoint admittedly accurate]].
141---->'''Nightmare:''' [[spoiler: Teyrn Loghain Mac Tir, the [[SarcasmMode brilliant commander]]. Pity the one time [[KneelBeforeZod you]] ''[[KneelBeforeZod tried]]'' [[KneelBeforeZod to rule]], [[EpicFail you failed so miserably]]. [[HumiliationConga You had to be beaten, humiliated]], lest you destroy your own country. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero You even doomed the Wardens by bringing the Inquisitor down on them]]. You destroy ''everything'' you touch.]]
142* ''VideoGame/DragonQuestV'': [[TheDragon Ladja]] gives one to King Korol in the DS version, calling him a weak pawn who has outlived his usefulness right before killing him.
143* Pokey Minch (or Porky), a cretin who has grown steadily smarter and more articulate throughout ''VideoGame/{{EarthBound|1994}}'', delivers this scathing diatribe in the finale as main character [[TheHero Ness]] and his friends battle against his master, [[EldritchAbomination Giygas]]. It's something of a classic:
144-->'''Pokey:''' Heh heh heh heh. You must really be at the end of your rope. In this [[FinalBossNewDimension bizarre]] [[EldritchLocation dimension]], you four are the only force fighting for justice... [[YouAreTooLate And here you stand, waiting to be burned up with all the rest of the garbage of this universe...]] Haaaaah! That's so sad. I can't help but shed a tear.
145* [[spoiler:Lilli]] from ''VideoGame/EdnaAndHarveyHarveysNewEyes'' delivers the speech (though more like a rant) in the Contradict ending (if picked) when she finally snaps.
146-->[[spoiler:'''Lilli:''' STOOOOOOOP! SHUT UP ALREADY!!\
147'''Edna:''' Very good, Lilli! Let him have it!\
148'''Lilli:''' That goes for everyone! You've just been bossing me around this whole time! "Lilli do this! Lilli do that!" But get this: I'm NOT your lap dog! And you, Doc, if you want to hypnotize me, you'll have to walk first, because that's what I'm going to do now! Your therapy is garbage! Why don't you worry about yourself, grandpa?!\
149'''Narrator:''' Lilli kept wailing until she was hoarse. Finally, exhausted, yet relieved, she started heading back. For the first time in her life, she was doing what she herself thought was right. Maybe this wasn't the happy end you were expecting, but the moral of the story is--\
150'''Lilli:''' And you shut up too! There's no moral here, got it?! THE END!]]
151* ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim'':
152** [[LaResistance The Stormcloaks]] are currently rebelling against [[TheEmpire the Empire]] because it was forced by the [[ANaziByAnyOtherName Aldmeri]] [[AntiHumanAlliance Dominion]] to outlaw [[DeityOfHumanOrigin Talos]] worship after losing [[GreatOffscreenWar the Great War]]. Sybille Stentor, the Court Wizard of Solitude, delivers a magnificent one to the [[PlayerCharacter Dragonborn]] aimed at the Stormcloaks as a whole when asked why Skyrim's previous High King refused to support them.
153--->'''Sybille Stentor:''' Because the Dominion is a sleeping beast that Skyrim cannot slay alone. Because many Nords are part of the Imperial army even now. Because the food and resources we get from the Empire are important to our people. Because even if we can't openly worship him, Talos the god was once Tiber Septim the man, and this is his Empire.
154** In Malacath's Daedric quest, he delivers a short-but-scathing one about Yamarz, the weak chief of an [[OurOrcsAreDifferent Orc]] stronghold.
155--->'''Malacath:''' Yamarz was a fool, always trying to scheme his way out of responsibility. [...] Yamarz was a coward and a weakling. His deceitful ways have cost you all greatly.
156** The ''Dawnguard'' DLC's main questline ends with the Dragonborn and [[FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire Serana]] confronting [[ArchNemesisDad her father]] [[VampireMonarch Lord Harkon]]. Before the fight, Harkon blames Serana for betraying her to the Dragonborn after everything he provided for her. Her answer is the following:
157--->'''Serana:''' Provided for me? Are you insane? You've destroyed our family. You've killed other vampires. All over some prophecy that we barely understand. No more. I'm done with you. You will not touch him/her.
158** In the ''Dragonborn'' DLC, the main questline ends with [[OurGodsAreDifferent Hermaeus]] [[EldritchAbomination Mora]] delivering one to [[spoiler:his would-be [[TheStarscream Starscream]] Miraak]]. In particular, Hermaeus Mora actually delivers the second half of it to the player as a warning not to grow too ambitious.
159--->'''Hermaeus Mora:''' Did you think to escape me, [[spoiler:Miraak]]?! You can hide '''nothing''' from me here! No matter, I have found a new [[spoiler:Dragonborn]] to serve me.... [[spoiler:Miraak]] harbored fantasies of, heh, ''rebellion'' against me. '''Learn from his example.''' Serve me ''faithfully'' and you will continue to be richly rewarded...
160** Once the Blades find out that Paarthurnax, the Greybeard's mentor, the reason the Thu'um is taught to mortals, and an instrumental ally to the Dragonborn's defeat of [[BigBad Alduin]], is a dragon, their leader, Delphine, issues an ultimatum: kill Paarthurnax, or the Blades, who are sworn to help the Dragonborn, will not help them anymore. This is after doubting their abilities, and giving them order after order, with no offer to help. Ordinarily, there is no chance to refuse this command, as the game doesn't give you a chance to tell them to go to Oblivion. But one mod, [[https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/18465 The Paarthurnax Dilemma]], gives you a chance to deliver one of these to Delphine:
161--->'''Dragonborn:''' About Paarthurnax...\
162'''Delphine:''' Make your choice, Dragonborn. You're either [[WithUsOrAgainstUs with us, or against us.]]\
163'''Dragonborn:''' I have decided to spare his life.\
164'''Delphine:''' Dragonborn, that's not your decision to make. Paarthurnax is evil and needs to answer for his crimes.\
165'''Dragonborn:''' So that's your answer? Revenge? I thought the Blades were better than this.\
166'''Delphine:''' The atrocities he committed against mankind were evil and unforgivable. This isn't about revenge...\
167'''Dragonborn:''' We wouldn't even be here to discuss this if it weren't for Paarthurnax.\
168'''Delphine:''' Are you so blind as to let that dragon manipulate you into this? You have no idea what you're dealing with. Letting him live is dangerous.\
169'''Dragonborn:''' [[ArmorPiercingQuestion So did you question the authority of Reman Cyrodiil or Tiber Septim this way?]]\
170'''Delphine:''' Those were different times, and different leaders. No one had reason to question either one of them.\
171'''Dragonborn:''' You realize that without Paarthurnax, Tiber Septim could not be who he was, right?\
172'''Delphine:''' A nice attempt to deflect the issue, but this is not going to change anything. That dragon has to die for his crimes, regardless of who you invoke.\
173'''Dragonborn:''' ''Bruniikke''. Savages. That is what you have become. As bad as the [[ANaziByAnyOtherName Thalmor]].\
174'''Delphine:''' How dare you even suggest such a thing! You test our patience...\
175'''Dragonborn:''' I see the Greybeards were right about you as well. Bloodthirsty barbarians.\
176'''Delphine:''' You go too far, Dragonborn! [[BullyingADragon Give me one good reason why I shouldn't put you down right now as a traitor to the cause!]]\
177'''Dragonborn:''' '''''[[RageBreakingPoint DREH NI FUS BAHI!]]'''''\
178''[the landscape shudders]''\
179'''Dragonborn:''' [[DontMakeMeDestroyYou Do not force my wrath if you know what's good for you!]]\
180'''Delphine:''' By the gods, the power of the Tongues! Very well. [[KnowWhenToFoldThem I have no desire to die today.]]
181** If you do decide to kill Paarthurnax, Arngier will tell you in no uncertain terms that [[ThisIsUnforgivable there is no going back for you:]]
182--->'''Arngier:''' [[EtTuBrute This is how you repay our trust?]] Paarthurnax's trust? His noble spirit... the wisdom of ages... his deep understanding of our existence... all gone, and for what? [[RevengeBeforeReason A mindless vendetta urged on you by a cabal of Akaviri barbarians!]] Begone, before even my philosophy is tested beyond the breaking point. We are men of peace, and you are not.
183* ''VideoGame/FarCry4'' has a fair few of its characters give these out in the final chapters of the story, including but not limited to:
184** Amita and Sabal, the rival leaders of the Golden Path, will give you one when you side with their rival during certain missions in the story. And they give a grand one near the end when you decide who will go on to lead the Golden Path. These final speeches are directed to Ajay and the player, but also apply to their rival.[[spoiler: They are also delivered with the knowledge that you are there to kill them, and no one is around to stop you but you.]]
185** [[BigBad Pagan Min]] nails you with one when you confront him at the very end, and if you let him live he even expands upon it into a full blown HannibalLecture. He details exactly what is wrong with the people you've been fighting for and now given control over the country to, how you screwed everything up for not listening to his request at the very beginning, your poor justification for mindless violence and destruction, and his own poor justifications for his behavior. By the end of it, it's more of a "Reason We All Suck" speech. Prepared and attentive players can get a begrudging [[ShutUpHannibal Shut up, Hannibal!]] [[spoiler: if they happen to have brought a weapon that can hit a helicopter.]]
186* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
187** Kefka of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'' engages in a nihilistic speech at the end of the game that berates the human species (and the party) for being feeble worthless insects in comparison to him, how he [[AGodAmI wields the might of the universe]], and how stupid it is for them to keep trying to rebuild the things he destroys, since they would inevitably decay or be destroyed anyways. Afterwards, the party attempts a philosophical retort with each of them systematically explaining what they've learned and how they've bonded with one another throughout their experiences. Kefka says, "This is sickening ... You sound like chapters from a self-help booklet. Prepare yourselves!", and proceeds to attack the party. And he then proceeds to get defeated.
188** Jenova, from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'', is fond of these. She tells Cloud that he's "just a puppet," "a failed clone," etc. and that he should "stop pretending [he's] sad," because he's not even real. This leads Cloud [[spoiler:[[HeroicBSOD to a mental breakdown, which causes him to hand over the Black Materia and become nearly comatose for some time]].]] [[spoiler:It's mostly a bunch of lies.]]
189*** ''VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy'' has Sephiroth telling Cloud that he'll always keep coming back to Sephiroth, and Sephiroth will keep giving him a reason to fight every single time, for the sake of manipulating him. Cloud turns it around on Sephiroth, saying, "You're the one who won't let go!" but Sephiroth just ignores it and the two fight.
190** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII''
191*** Xu gives one to Seifer after his running off on his own costs him his chance at passing the [=SeeD=] exam.
192---->"Seifer, you'll never be a [=SeeD=]. Calling yourself a captain is a joke."
193*** The fake President Deling gives one to Rinoa and [[LaResistance the Forest Owls]] over their falling for his plan.
194---->"Boo-hoo... Too bad... I'm not the president. I'm what they call... a body double. All these rumors about the many resistance groups in Timber... You pass along a little false information and they fall for it... How pathetic... Seems like there are only amateurs around here."
195*** Sorceress Edea gives one of these upon taking control of the country of Galbadia, doubling as a subverted NewEraSpeech:
196---->"...Lowlifes. ...Shameless filthy wretches. How you celebrate my ascension with such joy. Hailing the very one whom you have condemned for generations. Have you no shame? What happened to the evil, ruthless sorceress from your fantasies? The cold-blooded tyrant that slaughtered countless men and destroyed many nations? Where is she now? She stands before your very eyes to become your new ruler. HAHAHAHAHA."
197** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'':
198*** Lightning gives one of these to [[spoiler:Orphan]] right before the final fight.
199*** Hope gives one to Snow in Chapter 7.
200*** An amazing one happens in the secret ending of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII2''. [[spoiler:[[BigBad Caius]], who [[TheBadGuyWins successfully destroyed the timeline and got the goddess Etro killed]] in the normal ending, openly mocks ''the player'' for spending countless hours unlocking the secret ending in the false hope that the outcome would be different. Despite all the fragments you collected, all the super tough monsters you took down, and all of the different paradox endings you have seen...the goddess is STILL dead, and Caius STILL wins.]]
201*** Lightning, again, gives one to the BigBad [[spoiler: Bhunivelze]] in ''VideoGame/LightningReturnsFinalFantasyXIII'' before the final fight.
202** In ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXV'', Gladiolus gives one to Noctis after he falls into a depression after [[spoiler:Lunafreya dies]], calling him out on moping in self-pity despite the fact that [[spoiler:Ignis is now blind]]. After a chapter of the group barely being able to speak to each other, the speech eventually sinks in.
203--->'''Gladiolus:''' The hell is wrong with you?\
204'''Noctis:''' What?\
205'''Gladiolus:''' We're not stopping in Tenebrae. You need to grow up and get over it.\
206'''Noctis:''' I am over it, I'm here, aren't I!?\
207'''Gladiolus:''' ''[grabs Noctis' collar]'' Maybe when you're not too busy moping, you can look around and give a shit about someone worse off than you.\
208'''Noctis:''' Let go of me.\
209'''Gladiolus:''' How's that ring fit ya? You'd rather carry it around than wear it? She [[spoiler:gave her life]] so you could do your duty, not so you could sit around feeling sorry for yourself.\
210'''Noctis:''' You don't think I know that?!\
211'''Gladiolus:''' You don't! Ignis took one for you too, and for what?!\
212'''Ignis:''' Enough, Gladio!\
213'''Gladiolus:''' You think you're a king, but you're a coward.\
214'''Noctis:''' [[BigShutUp SHUT UP!]]\
215'''Prompto:''' Don't do this--! ''[gets pushed aside]''\
216'''Noctis:''' ''[shoves Gladio away]'' I GET IT, ALRIGHT?! I GET IT!\
217'''Gladiolus:''' Then get a grip! Pull your head outta your ass already!
218** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyTactics'': Anyone opposing Ramza in the CrapsackWorld that is Ivalice thinks Ramza is a deluded fool to stick to his heroic ways, and thus every boss battle is a HannibalLecture in which Ramza and the villain trade both ShutUpHannibal and ShutUpKirk moments.
219* ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThracia776'': When Dryas sings Reinhardt's praises as a knight, August is quick to call out Reinhard for his complicity in Julius' atrocities and Dryas for holding Reinhardt in esteem.
220-->'''August''': A man who readily lends his hand to child hunting is what you call a "damned fine warrior"? How typical... Knights are so hopeless. You've lost sight of reality!\
221'''Dryas''': August! You insult me, speaking so brashly! Just what is it that I'm unaware of?! Please, do tell!\
222'''August''': Need I spell it out? Reinhardt is Ishtar's adjutant and guardian. Ishtar is the betrothed of Crown Prince Julius. Julius - the very same man the people call the "Scion of Darkness," need I remind you - is the vessel of the dark god Loptous! Ultimately, anyone who serves Julius is ushering the world closer to destruction!
223* ''VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBlazingBlade'':
224** In one side chapter, your goal is to reach and talk to Fargus to prove your worth and convince him to take your army to the Dread Isle. [[PressXToDie If you attack him instead]], then talk to him, he will give you the following speech, followed by a NonStandardGameOver.
225--->'''Fargus''': What's this? Are you spent already? Hm? Attacking someone you're asking a favor of? Insolent louts! I thought you smarter than that. You disappointed me. Go on! Away with you!! There's no ship that'll carry such conceited half-wits as you!! Never show your faces here again!!!
226** [[BigBad Nergal]] gets one from Hector or Eliwood before the final battle, depending on whose route is chosen. Both speeches refer to a past incident in which Nergal fought against his former friend Athos, one of the Eight Legends.
227--->'''Eliwood:''' If that is what you learned from your encounter, then you are a fool. Do you believe for a moment that, when wise Athos struck down his dearest friend, he felt nothing!? His heart was torn in two, and yet you refuse to understand that! Nergal! I will defeat you! Here! Today!! But...even now, there is no hatred in my heart. You who were born human, you who lost the heart that defines your humanity...For you, I have nothing but pity.\
228'''Hector:''' You're beyond help, you craven fool! Do you have any idea how Graybeard felt? What it must have meant to cut down a former friend? Are you telling me you don't get it? What happened in the past, what reasons drive you...None of these matter!! I have no compassion or pity for you whatsoever! I care not for your excuses. Prepare yourself, Nergal! With these hands, I shall end your crimes today!!
229** Hector also gets one against Nergal in the same scene on his route.
230--->'''Nergal:''' Do you understand? I have power. The power to perform miracles. Oh, yes...Hector. Your brother, Uther, the marquess of Ostia? He's dead, is he not?\
231'''Hector:''' How—\
232'''Nergal:''' If you would like, I could make a [[ArtificialHuman morph]] of your brother. It would be well suited for a fragile human such as you. Perhaps a heartless puppet could ease the longing in your soul.\
233'''Hector:''' [[ShutUpHannibal Shut up. A heartless puppet? That's you, monster]].\
234'''Nergal:''' ...What?\
235'''Hector:''' To gain power, you think of no one but yourself. You are devoid of emotion, unable to feel pain or suffering...You are the puppet, Nergal!
236* In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemTheSacredStones'':
237** During Chapter 6, Novala, a [[TheEmpire Grado]] commander, demands that Eirika, one of the co-protagonists and princess of Renais, [[HostageForMacGuffin hand over her Lunar Bracelet in exchange for the safety of a child hostage]]. After she complies, Novala then [[MovingTheGoalposts demands that she and her allies drop their weapons]], and when they refuse, [[WouldHurtAChild leaves the child to be devoured by spider monsters]]. Eirika then gives him this speech expressing her outrage over what Grado has done to Renais.
238--->'''Eirika''': [[TranquilFury Enough]]. [[ShutUpHannibal Hold your tongue]].\
239'''Novala''': Wha...what?!\
240'''Eirika''': I... We, the people of Renais, have long honored our allegiance with the Grado Empire. And you invaded without warning. You ravaged our land. You killed my father... Even then, I told myself I must not hate Grado or her people. If I gave in to my hate, the bond between our lands would be lost forever. I refused to hate. Instead, I lived for the day our nations would know peace again. But... If this is Grado's true face... If you could extinguish Renais without pity, without remorse... If this is the case, [[ThisIsUnforgivable then there is no room in my heart for forgiveness]].
241** At the start of Chapter 12 of Ephraim's route, Caellach, one of Grado's six top generals, calls his men out on their most recent defeats as Ephraim takes the fight to the Empire itself. These remarks double as a harsh RousingSpeech.
242--->'''Caellach:''' Soldiers of Grado! You call yourselves warriors? You're pathetic! Fort Rigwald? You lost it! Your General Duessel? A traitor! Where is the honor of the Grado Imperial Army? It wallows in filth and mud. Is this the ending you envisioned? Is this how you would be remembered? Will you let the bards sing of how you fell to the renegade Ephraim? I think not! Now get up and fight! Kill them all! And bring me Ephraim's head!
243* Ike gets a turn of this in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance'' when he and Princess Elincia arrive in Begnion and after toying with her a bit by pointing out she has no proof to confirm her identity, the Empress [[TheGadfly Sanaki]] then reveals she already knew that Elincia was the Princess of Crimea because Sephiran confirmed it before they arrived and she decided to play a game with her because she was bored. Ike is ''pissed'' off at the Begnion nobles for treating her like a joke.
244-->'''Ike:''' What is the meaning of this? You knew Elincia was the Princess of Crimea? And you continue to humiliate her for your own entertainment? For some stupid game of wits and words? This is no joke!\
245'''Sanaki:''' …\
246'''Ike:''' Elincia's homeland is lost to her! Her family has been hunted down and killed by the monsters of Daein! And with nowhere else to turn, she endures mortal danger and terrible heartbreak to reach your door. And then you...you laugh at her?! Where is the humor in that? Where is your decency? You're horrible! You are all horrid people! [[YouMakeMeSick You disgust me beyond words!]] And you owe [[FirstNameBasis Elincia]] a proper apology.
247* In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemRadiantDawn''
248** The second chapter begins with Ludveck, a Crimean nobleman, stirring up trouble and trying to start a revolt against Elincia, who is now queen of Crimea. Brom and Nephenee, who fought for Elincia in the previous game, encounter one of Ludveck's subordinates rabble-rousing in a village, and after killing him, incapacitate two youths. Brom, who doesn't want Ludveck to shatter the peace Elincia fought so hard for, lets the youths know what he thinks about them.
249--->'''Youth''': It hurts! It hurts so bad! Look, my leg! It... My leg!\
250'''Youth 2''': M-murderer! You're a murderer!\
251'''Nephenee''': But I...\
252'''Brom''': Yeah. That's right. Nephenee and me... We been to war. When y'all were hidin' in cellars and attics, we were toe-to-toe with Daein. And look at us now... ''[raises his axe]''\
253'''Youth''': St-stop it... Please! I...was wrong! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!\
254'''Brom''': ''[lowers his axe]'' You got your head on straight now? You youngsters get so riled up... "Let me at 'em!" and "Bring 'em on!" Hmph! You know spit about war!
255** In a Chapter 3-2 base conversation, Rolf's mother arrives at the camp asking to see him, only for her stepson Boyd to call her out on her abandoning them.
256--->'''Woman''': He’s here with you, right!? Let me see Rolf!\
257'''Boyd''': Uh… Why should we?\
258'''Woman''': What!?\
259'''Boyd''': [[ParentalAbandonment You abandoned him]]! You left me, Dad and Rolf for some guy! What kind of mom does that, huh!?\
260'''Woman''': I was different back then! I was so young… I didn’t know how to raise two kids while looking after your bedridden father. Believe me, I tried! I tried… But it was too difficult.\
261'''Boyd''': At least you and I aren’t related. But Rolf… That’s different. He’s your son! Yours! And you left him behind because it was "too hard"!?\
262'''Woman''': I’m sorry… I’ve regretted my decision since the day I made it. I thought of you each and every day.\
263'''Boyd''': My father died not too long after you left him. We’d have followed him, too, if my brother hadn’t abandoned his knighthood in Crimea to take care of us!\
264'''Woman''': I… I had no idea… Oh… I’ve made a terrible mistake! I’m so sorry. Forgive me.\
265'''Boyd''': [[GetOut Leave. Now.]] You’ve got no right to see Rolf.
266* In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'', Say'ri, leader of [[LaResistance the resistance against Walhart]], gives one to her brother Yen'fay for [[LesCollaborateurs joining up with Walhart, the man who murdered their parents]]. [[spoiler:Say'ri ends up coming to regret giving this speech after Yen'fay dies, and Excellus reveals that Yen'fay only served Walhart because Excellus had threatened Say'ri.]]
267-->'''Say'ri:''' [[CainAndAbel Brother.]] I won't ask you why... We are well beyond that point now. I will speak it plain: [[ThisIsUnforgivable I cannot forgive you, and neither can I let you live.]]\
268'''Yen'fay:''' I've asked you for nothing, Sister, [[ImGoingToHellForThis least of all your forgiveness]].\
269'''Say'ri:''' But you will have my justice, like it or no! You, who [[MurderByInaction stood by in silence while everyone around you suffered]]! While [[RapePillageAndBurn villages were razed and fields burned]], you watched but said nothing... When [[ParentalAbandonment Father and Mother were murdered]] — you said nothing! Nothing, before [[TheQuisling you ran to the arms of]] [[ArcVillain the one man responsible for all of it]]! Your silence was deafening. Maddening. Even now... have you nothing to say?!\
270'''Yen'fay:''' [[VisibleSilence ......]]\
271'''Say'ri:''' [[PrecisionFStrike Damn you]], Yen'fay! Then I will make your sword answer for you! [[PreAsskickingOneLiner Draw your blade, and let it sing your final words!]]
272* In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemFates'':
273** On the ''Conquest'' path, Corrin, the PlayerCharacter, goes up against his/her older brother Ryoma, who, furious over Corrin supposedly killing their sister Hinoka (Corrin faked Hinoka's death and lied to fool Garon and Iago), challenges Corrin to a DuelToTheDeath.
274--->'''Ryoma:''' It's time, Corrin. Show me the power you used to slay our sister! Or does the [[CoolSword Yato]] repel at your touch now that your heart and soul are dead?\
275'''Corrin:''' Ryoma, stop this. I don't want to fight you! I can explain all this, even Hinoka. Please, listen to me!\
276'''Ryoma:''' Ha! As though I would allow you to distract me with false remorse. [[IHaveNoSon How dare you pretend to be my brother/sister after killing Hinoka! You are nothing to me. Just a filthy coward like the rest of your kingdom. I have said all I wish to say to you. Nothing you can do will sway me. You are no brother/sister of mine, Nohrian prince/princess]]! Watch as my blade takes back whatever Hoshidan blood remains in you!
277** Corrin gives one to Garon ([[spoiler:or rather, the familiar possessing his corpse]]) a few chapters later.
278--->'''Corrin:''' [[spoiler: Anankos]]? What are you talking about? Your god has nothing to do with this! We all make our own decisions. You are responsible for all of this, monster! You destroyed [[spoiler: the heart of a good man]] for your own selfish gain! But even you could have chosen a different path. No matter the circumstances we are born into, or the blood in our veins... we are all masters of our own fate! That is why I am not like you, nor could I ever be. I chose the path I believe in. The path of peace. And that conviction, that strength... I will use that power to defeat you!
279** In Hinoka and Takumi's A Support, Hinoka gets fed up with Takumi's reckless behavior and gives him one when he insists that he has to prove himself.
280--->'''Hinoka:''' The only thing you've proven is that you're an idiot!\
281'''Takumi:''' What?!\
282'''Hinoka:''' You want us to leave you alone. What will you do? Take down the enemy by yourself?\
283'''Takumi:''' [[BluntYes Exactly]]!\
284'''Hinoka:''' Do you know what we call people like you? Rash!\
285'''Takumi:''' What's that supposed to mean?\
286'''Hinoka:''' You think you're so brave, but [[LeeroyJenkins jumping in without a plan is just plain stupid]]! Maybe we should all go home while you finish the war for us! Is that your idea? Do you really think you can fight all by yourself? You need allies!\
287'''Takumi:''' That's not what I meant!\
288'''Hinoka:''' Oh? I'll tell you something. The way to earn respect is by respecting others! Do you have any idea how the rest of us would feel if something happened to you?! We'd be devastated. Don't you remember how we felt when Corrin was missing?\
289'''Takumi''' ...Yes.\
290'''Hinoka:''' I can't believe you'd put me through that again! Losing Corrin was devastating. ...Takumi, losing you would break me.
291* ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses''
292** Claude gives one to Acheron, a rather [[OpportunisticBastard disloyal and opportunistic]] member of the Alliance known as the "Weathervane," when Acheron stirs up trouble in Lorenz's Paralogue. Amusingly, Acheron doesn't realize that he's fighting the heir to House Riegan, who will eventually lead the Alliance.
293--->'''Claude:''' I did hear that some good-for-nothing inherited this territory. I guess that's you, then.\
294'''Acheron:''' [[LameComeback Who do you think you are]]? [[NoYou I'm not a good-for-nothing! You are]]!\
295'''Claude:''' If you were actually good for anything at all, I'd at least expect you to recognize who I am...
296** On the non-Crimson Flower Routes, when the Flame Emperor’s true identity [[spoiler:as Edelgard]] is revealed in chapter 11, Rhea gives them a rather scathing speech as they flee the Holy Tomb:
297--->'''Rhea:''' To flee is futile, [[spoiler:wicked girl!]] The Church of Seiros will raise its entire army against you until you have been captured and punished! You have defiled the Holy Tomb, dishonored the goddess, and humiliated your brethren. That crime will never be erased, even if you burn in the eternal flames and spill all of your blood into the goddess's soil.
298** On the Verdant Wind route, after war breaks out between the Alliance and the Empire, Acheron throws his lot in with the latter, then arrives to fight Claude and his classmates on the Bridge of Myrddin.
299--->'''Acheron:''' The declining Alliance will be finished if I kill you. The Empire will herald the new age!\
300'''Claude:''' Only if you manage to kill me. Hm? What's that to the north? Looks like the home of another opportunistic noble is burning...\
301'''Acheron:''' [[OhCrap That's... that's my castle]]! [[BigNo NO]]!\
302'''Claude:''' That's the declining Alliance at work, right there. Seems like you were facing the wrong way, Weathervane!
303** In Chapter 15 of Azure Moon, Dimitri gives one to Gwendal at Ailell, angry that Gwendal chose to follow his liege lord Count Rowe in supporting the Empire's occupation of Kingdom territory.
304--->'''Dimitri:''' The man praised as a lion is degraded to a mere traitor's underling.\
305'''Gwendal:''' A traitor's underling? That's upsetting, Your Highness. I am and always have been a knight of House Rowe.\
306'''Dimitri:''' How dare you? You are nothing but a lowly beast scavenging for scraps. You have forgotten the dignity of knighthood.\
307'''Gwendal:''' I may be lowly, but this beast is devoted to his master.\
308'''Dimitri:''' Ha! Then I had better kill the pet and deliver its head to that master...
309** Toward the end of Azure Moon, Dimitri meets with a subordinate of [[spoiler:one of the Kingdom nobles who orchestrated the Tragedy of Duscur]], who confesses to his crimes. Dimitri is unimpressed by the man's justification for his and his liege's actions.
310--->'''Dimitri:''' And so, in the name of justice, he caused massacre upon massacre out of love for his homeland. You [[spoiler:murdered your own king, killed our soldiers and involved innocent citizens]]. And yet you have the gall to speak of justice!?
311** In the War Phase, non-recruited students will give these speeches to the professor or their former housemates if you recruited said housemates, especially on Crimson Flower. Ingrid gives a particularly scathing one to Byleth in Chapter 16 of Crimson Flower if Byleth initiates combat against her.
312--->'''Ingrid:''' You have chosen to assist the Empire, even while knowing of their deeds. I am truly disappointed in you, Professor. Prepare yourself, heel of the Empire! A wretch like you will never be qualified to rule over Fódlan.
313** Ingrid also gives one to Felix if she is not recruited and fights him in Chapter 16 of Crimson Flower.
314--->'''Ingrid:''' Felix, why?\
315'''Felix:''' Urrgh...\
316'''Ingrid:''' You've betrayed His Majesty, Glenn, and Lord Rodrigue. You've betrayed just about everyone!\
317'''Felix:''' You couldn't possibly understand. If you're going to stand in my way, I'll have to kill you.
318** Ingrid ends up on the receiving end if she's recruited to the Black Eagles and fights Felix in Chapter 16 of Crimson Flower.
319--->'''Felix:''' All that talk about chivalry and loyalty, only to turn against your homeland.\
320'''Ingrid:''' Maybe I'm not a knight after all. Not in the traditional sense, anyway. I've betrayed lord and family alike. And I've done so because I believe in the professor. I fight for that which I believe in.\
321'''Felix:''' So you won't step aside. Then I'll have to kill you.
322** On Crimson Flower, Dimitri, who's faced in the penultimate mission, will angrily deride his former housemates, especially his old friend Felix, for betraying their homeland.
323--->'''Dimitri:''' Not only have you become the emperor's lap dog, but you have turned against your own people. From the depths of hell, you will regret tainting the land of Faerghus![[note]]Dimitri says this line the first time a former Blue Lion engages him in combat. It precedes the following speech against Felix if the latter is the first Blue Lion to face him.[[/note]] [[SelfMadeOrphan You killed Rodrigue... your own father, Felix]].\
324'''Felix:''' I said I'd cut down anyone who stood in my way. Even my father. Even my friends.\
325'''Dimitri:''' [[TranquilFury I see. That was all I needed to hear to finally work up the resolve to kill you.]]
326** In [[DownloadableContent Constance's]] supports with her ChildhoodFriend Ferdinand, she tears into him for the InnocentlyInsensitive and unintentionally condescending way he speaks about the collapse of her noble house.
327--->'''Ferdinand:''' [[UnderStatement I know that was a difficult time for you]].\
328'''Constance:''' Oh, so you surmised that the single-most-humiliating event of my life was "difficult," did you? It is becoming clear to me that this conversation is a waste of my time.\
329'''Ferdinand:''' Oh! That was rather brusque.\
330'''Constance:''' Well, pardon me if I seem unmannerly in the face of a reminder of all I have lost. My family, my home, my friends, my people, everything. I am all that remains.\
331'''Ferdinand:''' I... I... I did not intend to offend you, Constance.\
332'''Constance:''' Then what did you intend? How like the "noblest of nobles" to be unaware of the suffering one causes. You can't grasp what it is to be [[RichesToRags a newly minted peasant]], can you?\
333'''Ferdinand:''' That is simply not true. I care about you, and I was attempting to offer some words of comfort.\
334'''Constance:''' Enough. I need more than words--more than you have offered to provide. [[ImpoverishedPatrician Though I am without status now, my spirit is no less noble]]. It will not do for you to [[CondescendingCompassion condescend]] to me in my houseless state.\
335'''Ferdinand:''' You have my sincerest apologies. That was a grave misstep. I did not mean to come across as condescending. I was merely being careless with my words. As you say, I have never experienced loss at such a staggering magnitude. I cannot imagine the pain you have endured.\
336'''Constance:''' Indeed, you cannot. I advise against trying. The more you harp on it, the more irritated with you I become. Never shall a day pass that I don't work toward restoring my house and reclaiming my title. You, on the other hand, seem content to remind that it is lost. Thank you, but I had not forgotten.\
337'''Ferdinand:''' Constance, please!\
338'''Constance:''' I see no trace of the boy who made waves with me at balls and embodied the finest in the nobility. This newfound arrogance of yours is a discredit to House Aegir.
339** In Felix's supports with Dimitri, the latter asks about why [[WeUsedToBeFriends the former is hostile to him]] despite being [[ChildhoodFriend friends since childhood]], suspecting it has some connection to when they last saw each other two years ago.
340--->'''Felix:''' I am. The way you suppressed that rebellion... It was ruthless slaughter and you loved every second. I remember the way you killed your victims. How you watched them suffer. And your face...that expression. All the world's evil packed into it. That was our first battle. I remember it vividly.\
341'''Dimitri:''' ...\
342'''Felix:''' Oh, something wrong? Go ahead and deny it, you wild boar.\
343'''Dimitri:''' I deny nothing, Felix.\
344'''Felix:''' Well then. I suppose [[UsedToBeASweetKid the Dimitri I once knew]] died during that slaughter in Duscur, along with my brother.\
345'''Dimitri:''' [[ThatManIsDead Perhaps you're right]].\
346'''Felix:''' Hmph. Hurry up and get out of my sight. I don't make a habit of talking to beasts.
347** Felix gives one to Sylvain for his womanizing and irresponsibility in their C support, although he apologizes for it in the next event.
348--->'''Felix:''' Look. You've been getting on my nerves for years. I've tried to be patient with you, but I'm tired of holding my tongue. You're reckless in your personal affairs and in battle. And you're always prattling on about women!\
349'''Sylvain:''' Well, if a man sees a pretty girl, he can't just let her pass by without commenting. That's just rude.\
350'''Felix:''' You're insatiable. Do you ever stop? Certainly not to practice your sword technique. You always skip training. And you never consider how your actions hurt others...or how you hold them back.
351* ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'':
352** In the first part of Paralogue 10, "[[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheSacredStones The Sacred World]]," Seth, a Hero under Veronica's control, gives one to Veronica, princess of the Embla Empire, which helps kickstart her CharacterDevelopment. The level is fittingly titled "A Lecture Fit for Royalty."
353--->'''Seth''': Princess Veronica, I have just one question for you. Why do you insist on behaving like a child?\
354'''Veronica''': [[HearingVoices Because there's a voice telling me to]]. And it tells me that I'm going to have a lot of fun. Why do you ask? I suppose you're going to tell me that fighting is wrong, aren't you?\
355'''Seth''': No. Fighting is sometimes necessary, for the sake of a kingdom and its people. I doubt you're acting on their behalf, though.\
356'''Veronica''': The people...?\
357'''Seth''': Yes. Everything is for their sake. A true ruler cannot let their own selfish desires lead them. The burden of protecting the people is overwhelming... It requires a person of extraordinary character. I serve Prince Ephraim and Princess Eirika. They are fit to rule. You, on the other hand...\
358'''Veronica''': [[LameComeback Oh, how tiresome you've become. Get going. Now]].
359** The first half of Book 6 involves Veronica being betrayed, framed for capital offenses and nearly executed due to the machinations of [[spoiler:her relative and older sister figure Letizia]], who wants to take the throne. After Veronica is released due to the guards realizing her innocence and setting her free, she confronts [[spoiler:Letizia]], asking whether the latter wants the throne. When the latter says yes, Veronica has this to say.
360--->'''Veronica:''' If you had everyone's best interest at heart, I would love to have you sitting on the throne, [[spoiler:Sissy]]... [[InadequateInheritor I am...not suited for it]]. I know that. But I hear the way you speak about our people... And even so close to the throne, [[ItsAllAboutMe you think only of yourself]], ignoring the suffering you cause. That is why I cannot allow you to become emperor... You are unfit for the throne!
361* In the bad ending of ''VideoGame/TheForceUnleashed'', Palpatine gives this to Starkiller.
362-->'''Palpatine:''' [[spoiler: ''[casually blocks a lightsaber strike from Starkiller]'' You have betrayed your masters and your allies both. I knew that one day you would betray me too. And now you have doomed yourself and your friends. ''[knocks him through a wall and drops the Rogue Shadow on him; Starkiller wakes up turned half-machine like Darth Vader]'' You had such promise. You could have been my successor, my equal. But now... But, I may still have some small use for you. I still have enemies to find and destroy. You will do my bidding until I find a new apprentice. And then, like Vader, you will be cast aside. ''[to the surgical robots]'' Finish him.]]
363** Palpatine is the master of these. He gives another one in the non-canon Endor DLC.
364--->'''Palpatine:''' [[spoiler: A Great Day, Lord Vader. Today marks the death of the Rebellion and the birth of a new era of peace for the Empire. There is but one last detail to take care of. Do you take me for a fool? Your feeble schemes to overthrow me using that pathetic clone of your former apprentice were pitifully obvious from their inception. Now Skywalker... you will die. ''[fries Vader with Force Lightning]'']]
365
366* Depending on which ending you choose in ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV'', Niko will give this to either final boss; but the one to Dimitri is far more personal.
367-->''[Dimitri rolls around in pain, while coughing up blood]''\
368'''Niko:''' ''[walks over to Dimitri]'' Welcome to America!\
369'''Dimitri:''' ''[muttering profanities in Russian]'' Fuck you... you dick.\
370'''Niko:''' Speak English. You're a strange man. You killed your best friend, you betrayed everyone whoever came in contact with you, you killed [[spoiler:my cousin]]! The "[[SocialDarwinist survival of the fittest]]" thing must have really meant a lot to you.\
371'''Little Jacob:''' Niko, come on! It's time to go.\
372'''Niko:''' [[spoiler:Roman]]... never hurt anyone. \
373''[Dimitri coughs up blood as Niko leaves him to die]''
374** He still gives a pretty good, but much shorter one to Pegorino in the "Revenge" ending, too.
375--->'''Niko:''' You wanna know something funny?\
376'''Pegorino:''' Not really.\
377'''Niko:''' The Commission--the old families--I know some of those guys. And they thought you were a fat fucking joke.\
378'''Pegorino:''' Whatever.\
379'''Niko:''' A joke! Huh.
380** ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV'':
381*** In the good ending, Michael gives a scathing one to [[spoiler:the main antagonist, [[BigBad Devin]] [[CorruptCorporateExecutive Weston]]]] before he, Franklin and Trevor kill him by sealing him in the trunk of a car and pushing it off a cliff.
382---->'''Michael [=DeSanta=]:''' You know, [[spoiler:Devin]], the way I see it, and hey, I'm no intelligent businessman like you, but the way I see it, there's two great evils that bedevil American capitalism of the type that you practice. Number one is outsourcing. You paid a private company to do your dirty work for ya, and then you underpaid that company because you thought you were big enough and bad enough that you didn't have to play by the rules. Oh, number two. Off-shoring your profits. But we know your opinions on the matter, [[spoiler:Devin]]. [[ListOfTransgressions Keep your problems the fuck out of America, huh?]] Hey, [[spoiler:Devin]]... Goodbye, my old friend. Thanks for all the advice.
383*** Michael and Franklin delivers this brutal tirade to each other if the latter chooses to [[spoiler: betray the former in the ending B.]]
384---->'''Franklin:''' Oh, shit...\
385'''Michael [=DeSanta=]:''' ''[Aiming his pistol]'' Come on, you prick! I taught you everything you know.\
386'''Franklin:''' Not everything. I was here long before you, and I'll be here after yo' ass.\
387'''Michael [=DeSanta=]:''' Oh, we'll see about that, you fuck. I'll take you every time. ''[He then proceeds to shoot at Franklin just before he dodges.]'' Every fucking time!\
388'''Franklin:''' ''[Behind the pole]'' Yeah?\
389'''Michael [=DeSanta=]:''' Fucking-A-right!\
390''[In a moment, Franklin ambushes Michael from behind and engages in vicious NoHoldsBarredBeatdown]''\
391'''Franklin:''' I was your bitch! I could have been staring down the barrel of your gun any fucking day, you motherfucker!\
392'''Michael [=DeSanta=]:''' You just keep telling yourself that! It ain't gonna make you feel any better!\
393'''Franklin:''' Past performance, homie! People don't fucking change!\
394'''Michael [=DeSanta=]:''' You did! You! Two-bit gangster gone three-bit. And now you're gonna... cap the only one who was ever decent to you! ARGHH!!! No, I trusted you. I took you in. Treated you like family!
395*** Perhaps the most memetic one is from the first mission's ending ''Franklin and Lamar'', where Lamar insults and roasts Franklin just because the latter doesn't allow him to get inside Franklin's "crib."
396---->'''Lamar Davis:''' Sup, can a loc come up in your crib?\
397'''Franklin Clinton:''' Man, fuck you! I'll see you at work.\
398'''Lamar:''' Ah, nigga, don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful, nigga. Maybe if you got rid of that old yee-yee ass haircut you got you'd get some bitches on your dick. Oh, better yet, maybe Tanisha'll call your dog-ass if she ever stop fucking with that brain surgeon or lawyer she fucking with. ''[singsong]'' Nigga~...\
399''[[[{{Beat}} seconds later]]]''\
400'''Franklin:''' ''[confused]'' [[BigWHAT WHAT?!]] ''[regains composure]'' [[TranquilFury Hmph. Motherfucker.]]
401* Many of the gods in ''VideoGame/GodOfWarIII'' raise the valid point that Kratos is blinded by vengeance, and is little more than a bloodthirsty monster who destroys everything he touches. Zeus, however, really piles it on at the climax, saying, "After all you have sought, all you have sacrificed, all you have accomplished is another STUNNING FAILURE!"
402* ''VideoGame/GodOfWarPS4''
403** For much of the game, Brok and his brother Sindri complain about each other. Atreus, who recently learned about his divine parentage and [[AcquiredSituationalNarcissism allowed it to go to his head]], calls them out on their bickering.
404--->'''Atreus:''' Let me guess. Your brother isn't as talented as you and his work is junk.\
405'''Sindri:''' Um, these things are accurate. Your point?\
406'''Atreus:''' It's all you ever talk about! Over and over! Do something about it or shut up already.\
407'''Sindri:''' I see.\
408'''Atreus:''' Yeah! We're sick of hearing about little people's little problems! ''[storms off]''\
409'''Sindri:''' ''[{{Beat}}]'' Um, alright. That hurt a little.
410** When Atreus' newfound arrogance causes him to attack [[BigBad Baldur]], resulting in the portal to Jotunheim (Kratos and Atreus' final destination) being destroyed and Atreus and Kratos being stranded in Helheim, Kratos, who'd scolded Atreus several times already, really lets him have it.
411--->"You will listen to me and not speak a word. I am your father, and you, boy, are not yourself. You are too quick to temper. You are rash, insubordinate, and out of control. This will not stand. You will honor your mother and abandon this path you have chosen. It is not too late."
412* ''VideoGame/GodOfWarRagnarok''
413** Heimdall gives one to Atreus as they ride the elevator in Asgard, deconstructing Atreus' personality and motivations.
414--->'''Heimdall''': I protect the realm I love. From trouble.\
415'''Atreus''': And you think ''I'm'' trouble? You just met me.\
416'''Heimdalll''': And I can already see you are eager to prove yourself- ''way'' too eager- [[WellDoneSonGuy probably due to an overshadowing father figure you can never live up to]].\
417'''Atreus''': [[JerkassHasAPoint Good guess]].\
418'''Heimdall''': I would ''also'' guess that you are... disrespectful... entitled... and impulsive.\
419'''Atreus''': You don't know me at all. I'm here to help people.\
420'''Heimdall''' ''(unconvinced)'' Oh, you are here to help people? Hmm... No, no. You are here to help yourself. To manipulate and lie to whoever you have to to get what you want. I know you're young- your voice probably dropped while you were climbing the wall- but what a twisted little soul you have. You are chaos in a spiffy archer suit. I watch your mouth move and I see cities burning. Nothing good is going to come of you being in Asgard.
421** The Norns do ''not'' mince words when they brutally tell both Kratos and Freya that their futures are the product of their own decisions and unwilling to change, and that is why they are so predictable.
422** At the end of ''Valhalla'', Kratos does a combination of this and TheReasonISuckSpeech when he is confronted with [[spoiler:his younger self sitting on the War Throne, berating his younger self (and himself by extension) for choosing to be a monster rather than a god worthy of service.]]
423* ''VideoGame/GoneHome'' has a few in written form.
424** Terrence Greenbriar, the father of PlayerCharacter Katie and her sister Samantha, gets one from his father regarding his first published book.
425-->Thank you for sending along a copy of your newly published book. An author's first published manuscript is a momentous occasion. I read it this afternoon.\
426\
427[[StealthInsult I certainly recognized my son in the subject matter]]. An author's work is the externalization of that which he holds dear (and that which he fears), and in this respect I believe your work was successful.\
428\
429But the lens through which the personal shone was needlessly clouded by genre cliches and implausible dimestore science-fictional dei ex machina. The great authors speak of their life's milieu in clear and honest tones, the lens crystal that refracts their thoughts without distortion.\
430\
431I congratulate you on surviving the great ordeal that is publication, and rest assured that readers of your chosen genre will lap up copies hungrily. But I urge you to shed artifice.\
432\
433You can do better.''
434** Terrence gets another one from his editor, who's dissatisfied with the quality of his work and reluctantly offers him one last chance despite the fact that the editor doesn't think he deserves it.
435-->David asked me to write you regarding the reviews you ve been submitting the last few months. Frankly they're becoming more trouble than they're worth from an editing standpoint. There's a word limit-- it's your job to stay under it, not mine to cut back to it. Even then it's becoming harder and harder to weed out the tangents and non sequiturs from the usable copy without heavy rewrites. The readers of Home Theatre Aficianado(sic) want to hear about the quality and value of the hardware, not ruminations on your childhood!\
436\
437If it were up to me I wouldn't be writing this letter. I'd just be cutting you loose. There's tons of guys half your age who would take half your rate to write stuff I could actually use. But David's known you for a long time, and he's the boss, so I'm giving you one more shot on his say-so. You should write him a nice note thanking him for his patience and generosity.\
438\
439Look through your old stuff and start submitting reviews like that again. Then everybody will be happy.
440* Before the final showdown with [[BigBad Megruder]] in ''VideoGame/{{Gun}}'', Colt pulls this and a ShutUpHannibal moment at the same time on him--
441-->'''Megruder:''' ''[While looking over the city of gold he caused so much death and suffering to find]'' Isn't it beautiful? Just look at it all.\
442'''Colt:''' All I see is a fat one-eyed bastard whose greed knows no bounds.
443** And after the battle, when Megruder is injured, and [[KarmicDeath has his leg trapped under a boulder as the ceiling is collapsing]]--
444--->'''Colt:''' I should use this [[MacGuffin cross]] to stab you in your other eye! But none of that would take back all the lives you took.
445* In ''VideoGame/GuildWars2'' Palawa Joko delivers a blistering lecture to the Commander as their actions have endangered the very existence of Tyria while Palawa is just a threat to the living.
446-->'''Joko:''' Fear not, the world will not forget you. The scars you've gouged into it spell out your name for all to see. I confess, I was happy to take credit for your "victories." But did you ever stop to wonder what that says about you? That so many bought what I was selling? They call me a monster and you a hero. The world expects Palawa Joko to dare to throw reality into chaos. But surely no mortal would be so monumentally STUPID as to destroy a dragon, the life force of this world. Let alone two. And a god to boot? Perhaps they will finally thank me for luring you to me... So that I. May save the world. From you.
447* ''VideoGame/HalfLife2'': Dr. Breen spends a good portion of the game trying to inferiorize Gordon Freeman to the eyes of the citizens through the several screens spread around City 17. "You have destroyed so much. What is it, exactly, that you have created? Can you even name one thing? (pause) I thought not". True, seeing that the only thing we see Gordon do is shoot things. However, it can also be seen as kind of backfiring, as his accusations show that he [[EvilCannotComprehendGood doesn't understand]] why the rebels started the uprising against him to tear down his little empire.
448* Dr. Andonuts delivers one to Varik before the final battle in ''VideoGame/TheHalloweenHack'', claiming that Varik is not a hero and that Varik should leave him alone. Then, when he doesn't comply, and the Doctor slips further into insanity--
449-->'''Dr. Andonuts:''' Varik! Are you surprised? Look at what this world has done to me. LOOK AT ME! YOU'RE NOT A HERO.. You kill people for money. Where's the heroism in that? YOU WENT INTO AN OLD MAN'S MIND SO YOU COULD KILL HIM! [...] WHAT IS THIS FEELING? ...hahaha, I know what this feeling is... It's hatred. For the person who came so far. Just to destroy an old man. My mind is gone. All that is left is pure hatred. [[LaughingMad g-GUHhmyNOhahahhahaha.]] People says I can't take what I dish out. YOU SEE THIS BURNING, BLOODY UNIVERSE? YOU SEE THIS ULTIMATE, UNLIMITED POWER? Varik. I HAVE FUCKING HAD IT WITH YOUR SHIT. You little fuckers are going to have your bodies ripped in half. [[CutHisHeartOutWithASpoon I'll shove your asses so far down your throats that when you crap, you'll sing fucking Beethoven.]] [[PreAsskickingOneLiner tl;dr: eat shit, faggots.]]
450* ''VideoGame/HeavyRain'' has it with Ethan finding out Madison is a journalist all this time.
451-->'''Ethan:''' I thought I MEANT something to you!\
452'''Madison:''' Listen, I...\
453'''Ethan:''' You're a pretty good nurse for a fucking journalist!\
454'''Madison:''' Ethan, I wanted to tell you, but...\
455'''Ethan:''' What kind of article were you going to write? "My Life With a Serial Killer"? No, no, "How I caught the Origami Killer"? Maybe you'll get a book deal. I hope it was fucking worth it!\
456'''Madison:''' Ethan, it's not what you think! I...\
457'''Ethan:''' You lied to me, Madison! All this time you fucking lied to me! I thought you wanted to help me, but you're only thinking of writing a fucking book?!
458* ''VideoGame/JadeEmpire'':
459** When [[ArrogantKungFuGuy Gao the Lesser]] challenges the player for the right to enter the Spirit Cave, he's forbidden to use the styles taught by his crime lord father Gao the Greater. After Gao loses, [[SoreLoser he tries to strike the player with one of those styles]]. In response, the soft-spoken Master Li reprimands him harshly of his entitlement and short temper before expelling him.
460--->'''Master Li:''' Gao! I have made enough concessions to you today! I thought I could guide you away from your corrupted path, but you are too much the son of Gao the Greater! You are no longer welcome among my students, and your father's house shall have no more business here, despite his influence.\
461'''Gao the Lesser:''' I was not beaten! Not by this peasant!\
462'''Master Li:''' You were defeated by your own foolish ambition and predictable temper. I will speak with you in my chambers about your expulsion. Go now!
463** After the player corrupts a Jade Golem, causing it to wreak havoc in the Lotus Assassin Fortress, Grand Inquisitor Jia tells her subordinates that they didn't realize that one of their acolytes could be an infiltrator [[WeAreStrugglingTogether because of their infighting]].
464--->'''Grand Inquisitor Jia:''' Fool! So blinded by petty schemes that you cannot see a threat in our midst! You are worthless!
465* ''VisualNovel/KatawaShoujo'' has a few.
466** In Rin's route, [[spoiler:Nomiya gives her a lengthy one after she flees the exhibition, accusing her of embarrassing him and Sae, the curator (who was actually willing to let her leave, as she believed the exhibit would not suffer). He claims the exhibit was a waste of time, and that Rin does not have the resolve to be an artist.]]
467** Jigoro gives one to Hisao while complaining about today's youth.
468--->'''Jigoro:''' Look at yourself. An amoral, directionless glue-huffer, with a complete lack of etiquette and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking absolutely no fashion sense]]. You are tomorrow's Japan. Disgraceful. Is this the future of this once-great country?
469** When Hisao tries to argue against Jigoro regarding his disdain for his daughter Shizune's work on the Student Council and not visiting her, and fails, Jigoro gives another.
470--->'''Jigoro:''' You are very persistent. If only it was about something that mattered. I can't see what you may have learned from my daughter aside from that and how to backtalk people. Is that it?
471* Scolar Visari, from ''VideoGame/{{Killzone}}'' deserves a place in here, during the speech he mocked the protagonist's status and tried to crush everything the protagonist believed in (maybe even succeed) it. [[spoiler:And who are you, soldier? [...] They send a sergeant to take Visari? Are your commanders really all so afraid? "[...] Really sergeant. And who won? The cowards who commanded you and your comrades here to die? The Helghast have lost nothing. We fight for who we are. We wear our wounds like badges of honor. Helghan is ours, and we will die before we let it fall to plunderers. That is why your leaders dare not make a martyr of me. Your fleet burned, your friends butchered...And you become a hero for saving my life? Does that sound like a victory to you, Sergeant Sevchenko? [...] For giving my people pride, purpose!? We have built this great nation from nothing! Take me, and Helghan will dissolve into chaos. The ISA war machine, powerless against the sheer will of my people. We will choke the streets with our dead before we surrender. Your masters will beg me to restore order. You have not won! You will neve-[...] The madness begins..."]]
472* Near the end of ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsII'', Ansem the Wise and Xemnas (the Nobody of his [[DeceptiveDisciple student Xehanort]]) exchange these in their final confrontation, with Ansem giving one to himself as well.
473-->'''Xemnas:''' I was wondering who would dare interfere with my Kingdom Hearts. And look -- here you all are. How convenient for me. Ansem the Wise... You look pathetic.\
474'''Ansem the Wise:''' Have your laugh. I deserve as much for failing to see you for the fool you are.\
475'''Xemnas:''' Students do take after their teachers. Only a fool would be your apprentice. After all, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero none of this would have happened without you]]. YOU are the source of all Heartless. It was your research that inspired me to go further than you ever dared.\
476'''Ansem the Wise:''' I admit...my disregard brought chaos to more worlds than one. But what were YOU seeking? You erased me from the world, only to take my name and continue research better left forgotten... Is this the answer you've been looking for?\
477'''Xemnas:''' All that and more. I'm carrying on what you yourself began, and I'm creating a brand new world, one heart at a time. I thought you'd praise me, but all you ever do is hold me back. I understand, though. Unlike me, you have a heart. And you're powerless to control it. Consumed, by the jealousy you feel toward the student who surpassed you.\
478'''Ansem the Wise:''' Xehanort. Foolish apprentice of a foolish man. You have surpassed nothing -- only proved how little we both know. We may profess to know the heart, but its essence is beyond our reach. We're both ignorant -- as oblivious as when we began. I'm afraid that any world you try to create... Any world of yours...would be an empire of ignorance. That is why you and your creation are destined to fall!
479* In ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublicIITheSithLords'', Kreia has already been established as a master of the HannibalLecture many times over the course of the story; however, it's not until Bao-Dur claims that Kreia is becoming a bad influence on the PC (during the Dark Side playthrough, naturally) that she unleashes her own TheReasonYouSuckSpeech in the form of a vitriolic little rant:
480-->There is a [[DeathWorld world]] on the Outer Rim surrounded by mass shadows. Past the graveyard of Mandalorian warships, this planet suffers, crushed in gravity's fist. To walk on its surface is to feel it crushing every cell of your being. It is like being buried alive until it seems you will never breathe again. What manner of creature would have birthed such a thing? [[FantasticRacism Nothing human, to be sure.]] If you dare voice your opinions again, Iridonian, you will forget yourself for a time. Return to your machines, and trouble me no more. Serve the Exile until it is your time to die, and it will be enough.
481** Kreia delivers one to the player in the Dark Side path - as a combination of StupidEvil decisions and [[spoiler: world-ending hatred]] don't sit well with her. [[spoiler: After you kill the Jedi Masters yourself,]] Kreia sends you off to Dantooine to find the "Last of the Jedi." What you find instead is [[spoiler: an empty chamber, since you've just about driven them into extinction.]] Kreia then enters, explains the situation, and asks if [[spoiler: killing the Jedi]] calmed your rage. Your answer is invariably no. "It is as I thought. You have failed me," she remarks coldly. "completely and utterly." She then [[spoiler: ''drains the life from you, and chews you out for leaving nothing but death, destruction, and the end of everything in your wake.'' All you're left with is the hope that maybe you'll learn ''something''.]]
482--->'''Kreia:''' I have taught you to hear the Force again, shown you the contrast, and yet '''still''' you do not understand! ''This'' is what you have wrought: countless murderers, slayers, assassins, born of war that has, as always, '''taught the wrong lesson.''' You showed them life without the Force -- and instead of showing them truth, power, all you showed them was how the galaxy may die. '''You''' are responsible for all of this; even now, events spiral towards destruction, and there is nothing that can be done because you refuse to '''listen''', to '''understand!''' You have seen the effects you have on those close to you, heard the echoes scream across dead planets, and watched as your strength has grown, yet it is for nothing. To [[spoiler: have the Jedi Masters brought low by such a failure]], there is no victory in that. You have not heard a thing I have taught, and for all I have said, you have never learned to listen.
483*** It's revamped to a '''much''' more dramatic degree with the Restored Content mods that '''properly''' do justice for the Dark Side variation of that scene, as brilliantly shown [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3zbQxvJaxA here]] in this well-made dedicated fan-edited variation of it. [[spoiler: Kreia goes through the above speech without draining the Exile. But when she finishes, she '''stabs herself with her lightsaber''' to cripple the Exile through the force bond between them.]]
484---->[[spoiler:'''Kreia:''' ''[gasps in tremendous pain, strained]'' There... Do you feel that, Exile? [[ArmorPiercingAttack It cuts through your defenses]], as unprepared for such an attack as you are. Let-that-pain... be a lesson and a reminder of what you have forgotten.]]
485** If you choose the light side path, Kreia ends up giving one to the Jedi Masters instead after they try to [[spoiler: cut the exile off from the force]].
486--->Step away! He/She has brought truth, and you condemn it? The arrogance! You will not harm him/her. You will not harm him/her ever again.(...) How could you ever hope to know the threat you face, when you have never walked in the dark places of the galaxy—faced war and death on such a scale. If you had traveled far enough, rather than waiting for the echo to reach you, perhaps you would have seen it for what it was.(...) There is a place in the galaxy where the dark side of the Force runs strong. It is something of the Sith, but it was fueled by war. It corrupts all that walks on its surface, drowns them in the power of the dark side—it corrupts all life. And it feeds on death. Revan knew the power of such places… and the power in making them. They can be used to break the will of others… of Jedi, promising them power, and turning them to the dark side. Did you never wonder how Revan corrupted so many of the Jedi, so much of the republic, so quickly? The Mandalorian Wars were a series of massacres that masked another war, a war of conversion… culminating in a final atrocity that no Jedi could walk away from—save one. (...) As you would pass judgement on (him/her), I have come to pass judgement on you all. Do you wish to feel the teachings born of the Mandalorian Wars? Of all wars, of all tragedies that scream across the galaxy? Let me show you... '''you''', how have forever seen the galaxy through the Force. See it through the eyes of the Exile. [[spoiler: ''(drains the Force from the Jedi Masters, going [[DeaderThanDead beyond killing them as detailed when inspecting either of them after the event]])'']]
487** She also gives this to you even if you're Light Side, claiming that even after all the good you've done, all the lives you've saved and improved, the galaxy will still be a bad place. This is foreshadowed on Nar Shaddaa after you give a man five credits. She will show you the guy getting mugged, simply because what you did [[TallPoppySyndrome made him rise above his station, and be hated for it]].
488** The game lets you deliver one yourself to [[SmugSnake Atris]]. And it is glorious.
489** In the Dark Side ending to the original ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'', you can give one of these to Darth Malak, or he can do it to himself. It consists of rubbing it in his face that everything he did was countinuing on what Darth Revan started. In the Light Side ending, after Malak is shocked by his defeat, you can say to him "This is the way of the Dark Side, Malak; all things end in death."
490* In ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUsPartII'', There has been friction Abby and her old friend Mel since [[spoiler:Abby led her group of friends on a mission of revenge against Joel for killing her father]], not to mention likely due to Owen breaking up with Abby and getting together with Mel despite still having feelings for Abby. However, after Abby enlists Mel's help in saving the life of a young Seraphite[[note]]Also known as "Scars," they are the enemies of the Washington Liberation Front, which Isaac leads and Abby and her friends fight for[[/note]] named Yara, as well as her brother Lev, Mel lays into Abby.
491-->'''Mel:''' He (Owen) may fall for your little act with these kids, but I don't.\
492'''Abby:''' There's nothing to fall for.\
493'''Mel:''' Isaac's top Scar killer suddenly had a change of heart? Nothing to do with Owen, right?\
494'''Abby:''' I haven't always done the right thing--\
495'''Mel:''' You're a piece of shit, Abby! You always have been. I'm done with you. You want to do right by these kids? Get out of their lives before you screw them over too.
496* Any main character in a ''VideoGame/LegacyOfKain'' game gets and gives a ton of these.
497* At the end of the second dungeon in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword'', [[spoiler:Impa]] gives one to Link when he didn't reach Zelda before the villains got her:
498-->[[spoiler:'''Impa]]:''' If I had not come when I did, your Zelda would already have fallen into the hands of the enemy. The truth of it is you were late. You were late, and you failed to protect her.
499** After the end of the next dungeon, one of the DialogueTree options when saving [[spoiler:Impa]] calls back to the speech with [[DeadpanSnarker "Am I late?"]]
500--->[[spoiler:'''Impa]]:''' [[ActuallyPrettyFunny ...No. You're right on time.]]
501* A massive one gets delivered in ''VideoGame/LibraryOfRuina''. Specifically, [[spoiler:It's delivered by Roland to Angela as he sets about trying to kill her for causing the distortion incident that led to the death of his wife. If you've completed the Floor Realizations, this can lead to Angela performing a proper HeelFaceTurn.]]
502-->'''[[spoiler:Angela]]:''' ...I only want to be compensated for my suffering.\
503'''[[spoiler:Roland]]:''' What's this? You're acting weak all of a sudden? Are you finally starting to hesitate when it's almost over? Nah... can't be. You've got power and knowledge, and now a proper life as a living being on top of it... You just don't wanna give up what you finally took hold of.\
504'''[[spoiler:Angela]]:''' At least I used a method that isn't forcef-\
505'''[[spoiler:Roland]]:''' You used the same logic when you'd stolen the Light. You used it to kill those who came to the Library in the name of fair price. You didn't even stop to think about the consequences of your actions. That's how you've always been. You don't give two shits about anyone other than yourself. I don't blame you though, I just can't. It's how the City works... [[spoiler:[[CatchPhrase that's that, and this is this.]]]]
506* The BigBad of ''VideoGame/LiveALive'' does this, although it's a monologue to himself and possibly the audience. But it's the classic "HumansAreBastards and don't deserve to live" type thing. And once he's beaten, and his incarnations are BEATEN again, he goes into a VillainousBreakdown, and then it's the chosen's protagonist's TURN to give him one. They vary each other.
507-->[[spoiler: '''Oersted:''' ''"O man... A slave to appetites. A beast. Nay, lesser still... For hunger drives a beast. To fight, to kill, to feed. Survive. Naught else. But man... He's more complex. More fool. More mad. His hunger knows no end. The world's his meal. I'll teach him manners, then. Restraint. Respect. He's drunk on vict'ry, spares no thought for them who suffered for his spoils - but soon he shall! I weep for you, my brothers. To the last... You stayed the course. Pursued your hearts' desires. With eyes unclouded. So close, but alas... Like me. Deprived - nay, robbed of just reward. Disgraced and dubbed the villain. Sland'rous lies. A winner's justice! Hist'ry bent to whim! The losers silenced, stripped of voice and claim... and stricken from the page! If that's the game... I'll play along. Cross time and space and stand... For we the damned. Rewrite the tale. Just so! Your statues seven are my ink and quill. With magic potent, singular... Pure hate! I'll take up arms. Assume the guise we share. For we are Odio... and we will win!"]]''
508* In ''VideoGame/MarvelAvengersAlliance'', if you manage to recruit Loki as a hero, he delivers one of these to the player character: "While you ponder that, ask yourself… why continue this fight? This endless, pointless crusade against the so-called powers of evil? You’ll never win, so why try? The answer, of course, is because you need the fight. Crave it. Just like my boorish ox of a brother. It defines you, as surely as chaos defines me. Oh, you posture and bluster and call yourself hero. But deep down, all your efforts, all your supposed sacrifice, is just the begging of a child for his candy." Considering that you're actually just a person playing a video game, he has a point: your crusade against the powers of evil isn't doing much.
509* Intimidate speech options allow the player to deliver these in ''Franchise/MassEffect''.
510** Paragon Shepard gives one to the annoying reporter, Al-Jilani, when she accuses him/her of not respecting the sacrifice s/he had humans make in the battle of the Citadel.
511--->'''Shepard:''' The Alliance lost eight cruisers during the battle: ''[[TheDeadHaveNames Shenyang. Emden. Jakarta. Cairo. Seoul. Cape Town. Warsaw. Madrid.]]'' And yes, I remember them all. Everyone in the 5th Fleet is a damn hero. The Alliance owes them all medals. The Council owes them a lot more than that. And so do you.
512** Try a neutral dialogue path for the ending to ''Overlord.'' Shepard is utterly '''pissed.'''
513--->"You told me that David volunteered. I saw his memories. He ''begged'' you not to do this. Who gave you the right to play god? I saw enough of your atrocities to know your brother will never be free of it. David's coming with me. You even think about coming after him and this bullet will be waiting for you."
514** One is delivered to SHEPARD (particularly Renegade Shepard) in the "Lair of the Shadow Broker" by [[spoiler:Tela Vasir]] as she's dying with a critically flawed and notably hollow ShutUpKirk speech calling out the hypocrisy of Shepard criticizing her for working for the Shadow Broker when s/he's working with Cerberus, a terrorist organization. The flaw in her argument is that ''you don't work for Cerberus, you are temporarily working WITH them'', to take down a mutual foe that threatens millions.
515** Paragon Shepard also frequently does this in a subtle, yet highly effective way: s/he points out not why they suck, but how they could be awesome, but they're hesitating for petty reasons that would be more than made up for by being awesome. This often results in guilt-tripping or daring them to be good/trustworthy/heroic/mature, and thus, success. Renegade Shepard goes straight to this trope, or ToThePain.
516** Shepard can give this type of speech to the Quarian Admiralty Board during Tali's trial. And he/she does so ''again'' [[spoiler:on Rannoch]] in ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'', culminating in an impossibly epic rant ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AYpVuOarZE here]], major spoilers).
517** Throughout a game, where not even a renegade Shepard being able to call Miranda out on her bitchiness, if Jack dies before the suicide mission, Garrus gets a short but sweet one proclaiming that Miranda can't lead the second fire team as half the squad doesn't even trust her. [[spoiler: Which is subverted, however, because it turns out there are three good choices to lead the fire team, and Miranda ''is'' in fact one of them, so Miranda does ''not'' in fact suck in the manner Garrus was describing, assuming you've done her loyalty mission.]]
518** [[spoiler:Your clone]] gives you one in the ''Citadel'' DLC, berating you for, um, [[FantasticRacism not being as huge a racist as they think you should have been]] (with even Renegade Shepard not being racist enough!) and saving more alien lives than human. Shepard eventually gets to fire back in style during the final boss fight.
519--->''"You know where I got these scars? ''[lists every plot-relevant location across three games]'' I earned these scars protecting the galaxy! [[spoiler:You got yours from a petri dish!]]"''
520* The final chapter of ''VideoGame/MaxPayne2TheFallOfMaxPayne'' is an extended one of these to Max and Woden, from [[spoiler: Vladimir Lem]].
521-->'''[[spoiler: Vladimir]]:''' What the fuck is wrong with you, Max? Why don't you just die? You hate life, you're miserable all the time, afraid to enjoy yourself even a little! Face it, you might as well be dead already. Do yourself a favor, give up!
522* ''VideoGame/MegaManClassic'':
523** [[BigBad Dr. Wily]] has been on the receiving end of a few of these from Mega Man himself, such as in ''VideoGame/MegaMan7'' when Mega Man [[spoiler: contemplated [[WhyDontYouJustShootHim just killing Wily]]]] and in ''VideoGame/MegaMan9'' when Mega Man showed Wily images of every single one of his past defeats, all of which end in Wily begging for mercy.
524** Wood Man gives Mega Man one for killing Shadow Man in ''VideoGame/SuperAdventureRockman'' prior to his boss fight. This is DisproportionateRetribution, though, since Shadow Man [[AssholeVictim kinda deserved it]] for his KickTheDog moment when he accidentally killed Quick Man.
525--->'''Wood Man:''' You killed Shadow Man, didn't you!? I heard your voice as he was destroyed! He can't be rebuilt! I tried! But I can still extract vengeance! Fight me!
526* ''VideoGame/MegaManZX Advent'':
527** The [[AGodAmI final boss]] tells you "You're not a god. You aren't even a Mega Man. You're a mere mortal".
528** Grey gets a good rebuttal in once he defeats said boss. For all their power, they couldn't change the destiny of a regular boy like him.
529* ''VideoGame/MetalGear'':
530** In ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'', Liquid Snake gives Solid Snake one, effectively claiming that the reason he took the mission to stop FOXHOUND was simply because [[BloodKnight he enjoyed all the killing he got to do]].
531** The massive S3-and-Raiden duologue at the end of ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty'' is a massive Reason You Suck Speech to both Raiden AND the player.
532** Revolver Ocelot delivers one on Fortune, she considered herself as "lady luck", and believes she had psychic powers that can deflect bullets, till Ocelot shot her. In truth it was all staged out by the Patriots, and she was really protected by a electro-magnetic gizmo, and was nothing but a pawn to their experiment. [[spoiler: But in her final moments she did display real psychic powers.]]
533** Ocelot gets to deliver another one to Huey Emmerich (Otacon's father) in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolidVThePhantomPain'', when it turns out that [[spoiler: he repaired Sahelanthropus for Eli (AKA Liquid Snake) and the other child soldiers, allowing them to escape]].
534*** Then Kaz sinks it in deeper when it turns out that Huey [[spoiler:was the one who caused the epidemic in the Medical Sector. Also, he murdered his own wife. Because she wouldn't let him ''stuff his son in a nuclear mech'']].
535---->'''Huey:''' ...I was--\
536'''Kaz:''' '''GUILTY'''! ''All charges''.
537** ''VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance'': Raiden gives a [[PunctuatedPounding punch-punctuated]] speech to [[spoiler:Senator Armstrong]], calling him the kind of politician who doesn't actually give a crap about his people, other than the money and the votes, and that if America's gone to shit, as he says, "you're just another maggot crawling in the pile". The receiver, however, is actually ''thrilled'' to get this one, as [[spoiler:his public persona (and his act right before that moment) is just a facade, he also despises that exact sort of politician, and Raiden might just come to agree with what he ''really'' thinks]].
538* In ''Monster Girl Quest'', Luka gives two of these, one in the first chapter of the game and one in the second.
539** The first one is directed at Lily, a girl who responded to her village [[AllTheOtherReindeer ostracizing her for her magic]] by raping her family to death and then started a series of witch hunts. When she tries to justify her actions with her FreudianExcuse, Luka [[spoiler:explains that he has the ''exact same background'', but ''he'' decided to be a hero]]. [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown While beating the crap out of her]].
540** The second is at the end of the second game, and is directed at [[spoiler:Alice, Luka's friend and also the Monster Lord]]. Luka refuses to let her [[spoiler:get herself killed to fulfill her mother's dream (which was exactly what her mother did, until Alice slaughtered her killers and screwed everything up)]], and also points out that [[spoiler:her mother's plan was wrong in the first place, since any plan that can fall apart because you underestimated one little girl clearly wasn't ever going to work]].
541* Shao Kahn fires one of these at Raiden and at the Elder Gods in the prologue ([[spoiler:and final chapter]]) of ''VideoGame/MortalKombat9''
542-->'''Shao Kahn:''' Where are the Elder Gods, Raiden? Their pathetic Mortal Kombat shackles me no longer! They masquerade as dragons but are mere toothless worms! My venom spreads... it is the end of all things. Armageddon.\
543'''Raiden:''' STOP!!\
544'''Shao Kahn:''' It is done. Your time has passed. Ages wasted in foolish resistance. Now is the dawn of MY rule! Yes...pray to the worms, Raiden. As your world ends...
545** Liu Kang also turns on Raiden after he and Raiden leave the gang [[spoiler: to visit the Elder Gods, and everyone but Johnny and Sonya are killed by Sindel]] saying that everything that happened to them is his fault. He again gives one to Raiden in [[spoiler: chapter 10 of ''MKX'', stating that everything that happened in ''VideoGame/MortalKombat9'' was his fault.]]
546--->'''Raiden:''' This is not your destiny, Liu Kang.\
547'''Liu Kang:''' More visions, Raiden? Do you still see the future?\
548'''Raiden:''' The visions are gone, but I know what should be.\
549'''Liu Kang:''' I was put here by your hand.\
550'''Raiden:''' An accident, which haunts me to this day!
551* In ''VideoGame/NeverwinterNights2'', the boss of the first chapter is a Githyanki named Zeearie. After defeating her, she lingers long enough to rant at you about how you destroyed any chance the Githyanki have of ''helping'' you against the true enemy. Also an example of NiceJobBreakingItHero.
552* ''VideoGame/NewLegends'' have the villain, Xao Gon, taunting you after [[YouKilledMyFather killing your father]], the Emperor, taking over your kingdom and having you MadeASlave.
553--> '''Xao Gon:''' Leave him his kingdom in ashes. It is a shame that your father did not share the vision I have for the New China... you shall become a symbol of treason, and spend your life living with the pain of extinction. That of your family, and your kingdom.
554* From ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes'', Sylvia gives Travis another one right before the Rank 1 fight.
555-->"Now be honest. Did you really think I would let you do me if you hit number one? You really are an idiot, aren't you, Travis? Come back to reality! I mean, look at yourself! You are a dopy, otaku assassin. The bottom of the barrel. No woman would be caught dead with you... unless she was a desperate bitch! Where in the world could you find a woman who could fall in love with someone like you?"
556* ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes2DesperateStruggle'': Rank 4 assassin Margaret features "The Reason You Suck" Song (heard during the boss battle against her), insulting Travis at every opportunity. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpRoTTaJBpY Here, listen to it.]]
557* ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroesIII'': Travis gives an epic one to FU at the end of the game, to the point that the latter turns OneWingedAngel ''before'' the boss battle with him even starts.
558* ''VideoGame/NoOneLivesForever''. In a similar NotSoDifferentRemark scene, Cate Archer lets [[spoiler: the Baroness]] have it, using the fact they had the same background, but while Cate got over it (despite becoming a cat burglar), the Baroness just became a hateful, bitter woman who wanted nothing but revenge at any cost.
559* ''VideoGame/NotForBroadcast'': In Day 296, [[spoiler:when Jeremy Donaldson takes the entire newsroom hostage at gunpoint, he orders Alex Winston not to cut to the ad before he tells them to:]]
560-->[[spoiler:'''Jenny:''' Jeremy, think about what you're doing--\
561'''Jeremy:''' I ''am'' thinking about what I'm doing. I've been thinking about it for a long time. We all should be. Christ, it's so fucking hot in here. Do you remember when we used to do the real news? Before it was all lottery winners and... bloody cat football. We are on the brinks of a siege, the likes of which the world hasn't seen in hundreds of years. The enemy is at the gates, and I'm stuck here, talking to these three fucking idiots!]]
562** And in Act III, [[spoiler:if you played the Disrupt ad and Jenny tells Jeremy about Alan James, we get this:]]
563--->[[spoiler:'''Jeremy:''' Look. Forget Alan James. There is still something deeply wrong. And you know it, Jenny. And you know it, Andy. And you, you at home. You know it too. Meanwhile, I'm interviewing a guest who stinks of shit. Patrick is paddling about in shit, and Robyn, Robyn is literally interviewing someone who collects the fucking stuff. I mean, it's not sophisticated, but what a metaphor. We are sleep-walking our way into oppression, and the news isn't saying anything! We're not saying anything!\
564'''Jenny:''' Says who? Alan fucking James?]]
565* ''VideoGame/{{Omori}}'': The titular character delivers an extremely brutal one towards [[spoiler:his real world self Sunny]] during the FinalBoss fight:
566-->[[spoiler:"You've caused so much suffering... yet you do nothing. And you've earned nothing in return. Your friends will never forgive you. They'll abandon you like you did to them... and that's what you deserve. You tell yourself that you don't want to burden others... But the truth is that you're selfish. You just don't want people to depend on you. When do you think about others? How long are you going to let people take care of you? You say you care but you're a liar. You've never done anything for anyone else. You're useless... less than useless. You're sick. People like you don't deserve to live. Your friends are wrong about you. The person they love isn't you at all. You let them believe in a lie to protect yourself. You're nothing but a liar... and when they see the truth... They'll hate you just as you hate yourself. If they know the truth, you'll never be able to regain their trust. No matter what you do, all you'll do is make things worse. It would be better to just die. [[AccidentalMurder You killed Mari]]. She loved you and you killed her. Hero loved her and you killed her. Aubrey loved her and you killed her. Kel loved her and you killed her. Basil loved her and you killed her. You loved her and you killed her. [[SuicideDare You should just die.]] [[MadnessMantra You should just die. You should just die. You should just die...]]"]]
567* ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'':
568** The Investigation Team has plenty of these to give to [[spoiler:Tohru Adachi]] in their final confrontation, but Yukiko's is the first to start getting to him.
569--->'''Yukiko:''' Speak for yourself! Living is too painful for you, but you don't want to die... Of course no one would understand! It makes no sense! You're just throwing a tantrum like a kid who can't have his way!
570** Naoto's final one is especially scathing.
571--->'''Naoto:''' People can't live alone. If you give in and sever your ties to human society, it will naturally become hard to live in it. Yet you refuse to face life and admit your fault, running away from your humanity like a coward. And though you claim to find life troublesome, you caused nothing but trouble for many others! Your twisted logic is that of an immature, egotistic brat!
572** Immediately after, Yosuke gives a straighter and to-the-point calling-out, the one that finally causes [[spoiler:Adachi]] to lose it.
573--->'''Yosuke:''' ''Favored by the world, my ass. I'm going to say it flat out. You're just a worthless criminal!''
574** Each member of the Investigation Team also got one from their respective [[EnemyWithout Shadows]], laying bare the parts about them that they don't want to accept. What the Shadows are saying is true (although the party members are more than what the Shadows represent), and by accepting them, the Shadows become Personae.
575** In Rank 8 of Yukiko's Social Link, after Yukiko persistently refuses the requests of a shady news service to let them cover her family's inn, the reporter tries to badmouth the inn and say that they need the publicity. Yukiko, despite not wanting to inherit the inn, refuses to hear this, and tears into the reporter in response.
576--->'''Shady reporter:''' What the shit...? You say your inn has been going for generations, but all that means is, it's crappy and run-down. Tradition is so last year. You'd be better off if you did close up shop. I've seen the stuff you serve... Small portions, decent service, nothing that stands out. If you want customers, you can't just do the same old, same old. You guys don't get that, and that's why you suck. Your waitresses don't even give any extra service unless you tip 'em, huh? Heyyyy... I know! Why don't you make all the waitresses young girls, and have 'em do all-day menus? Y'know, spread the futon out, then go straight in! But anyways, I was saying... Let's give your place a little TV-style publicity. Use your head, will ya?\
577'''Kasai:''' ...\
578'''Yukiko:''' ...[[ShutUpHannibal (Shut) the]] [[PrecisionFStrike hell]] [[ShutUpHannibal up]]. Don't say another word about our inn! Who'd take your stupid ideas seriously!? From now on, we refuse ANY coverage from your station!\
579'''Shady reporter:''' You... bitch! If that's how you wanna play it, I'll plaster those words all over prime time! See how that feels!\
580'''Yukiko:''' Go ahead, by all means. And we'll respond with an official complaint to your sponsors.
581** Rise also gives one to Naoto after Naoto condescendingly tells the Investigation team that their "game" of investigating the murder will soon be over, considering that everyone on the team has risked their lives to save the kidnapping victims and/or been kidnapped and nearly killed themselves. Naoto concedes that Rise has a point, but Rise later comes to believe she was too harsh on Naoto, especially after [[spoiler:Naoto says that it isn't a game for her, either, immediately before using herself to lure out the culprit, causing Rise to believe she pushed Naoto into dong so]].
582--->'''Rise:''' A game? [[NoYou Aren't you the one who thinks of this as a game]]? ''[Naoto gasps]'' I don't care if you're a special investigator or an amateur sleuth... All you're doing is solving mysteries. What could you possibly know about us? You're the one who's playing a game here.
583** Shadow [[spoiler: Mitsuo]] gives a brutally brief one to his normal human self after several moments of [[NothingIsScarier complete silence]], attacking his psychotic need for validation right where it hurts.
584--->'''[[spoiler: Shadow Mitsuo]]:''' I feel nothing... I... have nothing. I am nothing. And you... are me...
585** Kanji gives one to [[spoiler:Mitsuo after the Investigation Team drag him out of the TV World and he claims to be the killer (although he has only one victim).]]
586--->'''Kanji:''' I hope you're ready to get what's coming to you...\
587'''[[spoiler:Mitsuo]]:''' What? Are you gonna kill me?\
588'''Kanji:''' Kill you...? It ain't gonna be that easy, you piece of shit! What you did can never be taken back. No, you're gonna own up to your crimes and pay for what you did. You ain't gonna be allowed to pick the bucket until you understand exactly what it is that you've done!
589* ''VideoGame/Persona4ArenaUltimax'': [[spoiler: Adachi]], [[HazyFeelTurn of all people]] gives a [[IronicEcho familiar one]] to Sho Minazuki.
590-->'''[[spoiler: Adachi]]:''' Don't... think we're the same, [[PretenderDiss you little brat]]... You think the whole world hates you just because someone didn't treat you right... You're nothing but a little kid throwing a tantrum.
591* ''VideoGame/{{Persona 5}}'':
592** Yusuke gives a brief one to Madarame after realizing that Madarame exploited his pupils for years, and awakening his own Persona in the process.
593--->'''Yusuke:''' The children who adored you as "Father"...The prospects of your pupils...How many did you trample upon? How many dreams did you exchange for riches?! No matter what it takes...I will bring you to justice!
594** Makoto gets one from Ann, accusing her of being nothing more than a StudentCouncilPresident who looks the other way when faced with Kamoshida's abuses, and serves as errand girl to the administration, all to get a letter of recommendation. Ann later regrets this, realizing that Makoto felt guilty about not being able to do anything about Kamoshida, not unlike Ann herself.
595** Makoto, while eating dinner with her older sister and [[PromotionToParent legal guardian]] Sae, wonders aloud whether their DisappearedDad would consider the Phantom Thieves just, thus inadvertently touching on Sae's issues and causing Sae to let out her bottled up feelings of resentment toward Makoto, whom she's been taking care of ever since their father died.
596--->'''Sae:''' The only reason you have time to think about that is because you depend on someone else.\
597'''Makoto:''' That's not--\
598'''Sae:''' You don't have to do a single thing, and you're provided with food, clothes, a home... I've had no time to think on such ridiculous thoughts. Would Dad have been happy with them? I don't care. He died upholding some lofty sense of righteousness, leaving all his responsibilities on us.\
599'''Makoto:''' A-All I was trying to say was--\
600'''Sae:''' ''[raising her voice]'' Isn't it about time you grew up and acknowledged our situation?! Right now, you're useless to me. All you do is eat away at my life.
601** Ryuji gets several from his former teammates on the track team, who blame him for punching Kamoshida and causing the track team to get shut down, saying that his actions wasted all their efforts in putting up with Kamoshida.
602** You have the chance to give responses to this effect when facing various Shadows in Mementos, and this is especially true for the ones that are AbusiveParents.
603** In The Tower Confidant, it turns out that Shinya, the boy you've been befriending, is [[TheBully bullying some kids at his school]], when one of his victims and his friends confront Shinya. As they leave, one boy tells him, "You're just like the bad guy in a movie! I hope the Phantom Thieves get you!" The latter part hits especially hard for Shinya, who'd looked up to the Phantom Thieves and wanted to emulate them.
604** If you only take the protagonist to the fight with [[spoiler:Shadow Sae]], [[DevelopersForesight a special scenario plays out]] in which [[MissionControl Futaba]] calls the boss out on cheating.
605--->'''[[spoiler:Shadow Sae]]:''' Goodness me, it seems you just keep losing. It seems luck isn't with you.\
606'''Futaba:''' L-Luck my ass! You're probably cheating! How else would we keep losing like this!?\
607'''[[spoiler:Shadow Sae]]:''' …! Why would I cheat...?\
608'''Futaba:''' There's no way you're not, [[ThatLiarLies you liar]]! It's totally obvious! You're only up against me and [[PlayerCharacter Joker]], you know! You're supposed to be an adult! You should be ashamed! More importantly, are you so weak that you have to cheat to win? And you call yourself a Palace ruler? You're just a wimp! You should totally be ashamed!\
609'''[[spoiler:Shadow Sae]]:''' You only dare talk like that because you can't beat me...\
610'''Futaba:''' Shut up! To begin with--\
611'''[[spoiler:Shadow Sae]]:''' You're the one who needs to shut up! ''[goes OneWingedAngel]''
612* ''VideoGame/Persona5Strikers''
613** Yusuke, attending a party to celebrate Ango Natsume reaching one million copies sold, overhears Natsume and his editors talking about Yusuke's teacher Madarame, and how his MagnumOpus, the Sayuri, was nothing more than a piece of garbage. Yusuke puts up with this long enough to get Natsume's autograph and his keyword (which is needed to enter his Jail). As he's leaving, Yusuke tells Natsume that the Sayuri was ''actually'' made by his MissingMom, and that it's far better than Natsume's own work, which is cobbled together from superior writers. Natsume's rather taken aback by hearing this.
614** Also, you wouldn't expect Ryuji, of all people, to give one. But he does. In Okinawa's Jail.
615--->'''Ryuji:''' You piece of-I sat here while you went on and on and on... You got NO right sayin' that shit to Sophie! Y'hear me!? You high-an'-mighty, garbage-ass, judgy piece o' SHIT can't even show your own face!\
616'''Makoto:''' Hey! Hey...\
617'''Yusuke:''' Mm... He's really giving the disembodied voice what for.\
618'''Sophia:''' Skull?\
619'''Ryuji:''' She's bugged, huh!? She's worthless?! You got all that from five friggin' questions!? We're Sophie's friends, and we KNOW she's awesome! She's friggin' amazing! A million times better than you! [[PrecisionFStrike SO SHUT THE FUCK UP, IDIOT!]]
620** Zenkichi gets one from [[CallingTheOldManOut his daughter Akane]][[spoiler:'s Shadow, as well as his own Shadow]], calling him a failure as a police officer and as a father due to neglecting Akane [[spoiler:and not pursuing the man who hit and killed her mother in a drunk driving accident, which resulted in an innocent man being demonized as responsible for the tragedy.]] Zenkichi agrees, [[spoiler:and this helps him awaken his Persona, Valjean.]]
621** Sophia also gives one to [[spoiler: Ichinose]] after [[spoiler:awakening to Pandora]].
622--->'''Sophia:''' [[spoiler:Ichinose]], you can't hide the truth from your own offspring. The only thing you're trying to succeed at is shielding yourself. You don't want to hurt anymore... You want to protect yourself... That's why you deny having a heart! You're not doing this for humanity at all-you're only doing it for yourself! You're taking the easy way out: [[spoiler:EMMA]]'s faulty solution!
623* In the Platform/{{Newgrounds}} game, ''VideoGame/{{Pico}}'s School'', there are a few.
624** When you encounter Cyclops, he asks if Pico has any {{last request}}s. Pico can [[AintTooProudToBeg beg for his life]], or tell Cyclops what he thinks.
625--->'''Pico:''' Go eat dick, Cyclops. No one is impressed by your teen {{angst}}. I seem to remember you being a big Music/PearlJam fan. ''[Cyclops has an ! reaction]'' But then you were runnin' with the G-Squad for a while. Now you're a punk. What the fuck? Pick a trend & stick with it.\
626'''Cyclops:''' [[ShutUpKirk At least I never liked that techno shit you listen to]]. ''[[[TalkToTheFist shoots Pico]]]'' Get outta my face, Prick-o!
627** Just before the final battle, when BigBad Cassandra delivers a MotiveRant about why she did the school shooting.
628--->'''Pico:''' Society sucks, but you don't have to kill your classmates to stand out. Try making the music instead of just listening to it. Better yet, make a crazy website that lets you kill pop-icons. It doesn't matter anyway. You have failed the test of life, and I will take you all on if I must!
629* The BigBad of ''VideoGame/PlanescapeTorment'' attempts to give a few. The Nameless One, if he has sufficiently high mental stats, can hand out these speeches like candy when not playing the WarriorTherapist. The best is given right back to the BigBad.
630-->'''The Nameless One:''' If there is anything I have learned in my travels across the Planes, it is that many things may change the nature of a man. Whether regret, or love, or revenge or fear - whatever you believe can change the nature of a man, can. I’ve seen belief move cities, make men stave off death, and turn an evil hag's heart half-circle. This entire Fortress has been constructed from belief. Belief damned a woman, whose heart clung to the hope that another loved her when he did not. Once, it made a man seek immortality and achieve it. And it has made a posturing spirit think it is something more than a part of me.
631* ''VisualNovel/PlumbersDontWearTies'',
632** If you choose to have Thresher refuse to hire Jane in spite of her pleading, he gives a long one to her.
633--->'''Thresher:''' You know, we get at least 200 qualified applicants for each position here, and without exception, ''every single solitary applicant is desperate!'' Do you hear me? ''Desperate!'' Do you think I can't see through all this corny melodrama of yours? Do you think I'm an idiot? You're acting. All of you applicants are acting. You're acting like you don't know where your next meal is going to come from. I ''hate'' people looking for work. You're all filthy slimes. You're part of that seething, oozing mass of unemployment. Just look at you! You waltzed in here with your perky little face and your bouncy little breasts and you think you're going to walk out with a job. Well, I'm going to kick that sweet little butt of yours out on the street. You and your sniveling little suburban education. You think you can just go into your crying act and get a job any time you want? I'll bet you're a [[DaddysGirl daddy's girl]]. Aren't you? AREN'T YOU? Used to getting what you want whenever you want it? All you have to do is start bawling your little head off and Daddy gives you whatever you want. Well, things are different in the real world!\
634'''Jane:''' Um, thank you for your time, Mr. Thresher--\
635'''Thresher:''' Jobs are for those who are worthy. Jobs are precious and few, as you've just discovered. Perhaps this will be a lesson for you, young lady. Perhaps you'll take your next job seriously- if you can ''get'' another job, you peabrained preppy ubain Volvo-driving [[CountryMatters vulva]]? [[ChewingTheScenery HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OF THE EMPLOYER'S POINT OF VIEW]]? Huh? The guy who pays half your Social Security? ''[[[ScrewThisImOuttaHere Jane starts to get up to leave]]]'' Who do you think pays your dental and health insurance? Santy Claus? And who do you think pays through the nose on workman's comp when you fake an injury? Do you think jobs grow on trees? Who do you think creates jobs? You don't give a...
636** Both narrators give these speeches to the player whenever the player gets a bad ending. This continues throughout the latter half of the game, despite the fact that the choice that they hate most- to [[spoiler:have Thresher act like a sexual predator toward Jane]]- is the ''only'' way to continue the story.
637* ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}''
638** ''VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite'': After defeating [[AntiVillain N]] and the legendary dragon, [[BigBad Ghetsis]] delivers a ton of insults towards him and the protagonist, particularly N, who he calls "[[YouHaveFailedMe a disgrace to the Harmonia name]]" and "a freak without a human heart", clearly proving N was merely Ghetsis's UnwittingPawn for his plan to take over Unova. [[HeroicBSOD N doesn't take any of this well]].
639** ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon'': Lillie confronts her AbusiveMom Lusamine in Ultra Space and gives her one of these:
640--->'''Lillie:''' Children... Children are not just THINGS that belong to their parents! Pokémon are not just THINGS that a trainer can do whatever they want to! I am alive! Cosmog is alive! We are not things for you to collect! We're not made for you to discard when you get bored with us! That is terrible, mother! You are terrible!
641** ...only for Lusamine to counter with her ''own'' TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, which one thinks can be targeted at the ''player'' as well![[labelnote:*]]It should be noted that Lusamine's is stuffed full of [[{{Hypocrite}} hypocrisy]], InsaneTrollLogic, and is liable to miss the mark entirely based on the player's gameplay style, but the delivery and camera angles are such that it qualifies for the trope for the reasons outlined on the main page.[[/labelnote]]
642--->'''Lusamine:''' Terrible? Me? [[NotSoDifferentRemark How am I different from any Pokémon trainer, like your little 'friend' there?]] What do you do with a Pokémon you can't use? You remove it from your party, as you please.
643* From ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'':
644-->'''[=GLaDOS=]:''' I'd just like to point out that you were given every chance to succeed. There was even going to be a party for you. A big party. That all your friends were invited to. I invited your best friend the Companion Cube, but of course, he couldn't come because you murdered him. All your other friends couldn't come either because you don't have any other friends because of how unlikable you are. It says so right here in your personnel file: Unlikable. Liked by no one. A bitter, unlikable loner, whose passing shall not be mourned. 'Shall not be mourned.' That's exactly what it says. Very formal. Very official. It also says you were adopted, so that's funny, too.\
645'''[=GLaDOS=]:''' ''[Referring to an alleged sound clip of Chell's voice]'' That's you! That's how dumb you sound! You're not a doctor, you're not a scientist, you're not even a full-time employee! How did your life go so wrong?
646** And from ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}''
647--->'''[=GLaDOS=]:''' Oh, it's you. It's been a long time. How have you been? I've been really busy being dead. You know... after you murdered me? Okay look, we both said a lot of things that you are going to regret. But I think we should put our differences behind us. For science. You monster.
648** And at the end:
649--->'''[=GLaDOS=]:''' You know what my days used to be like? I just tested. Nobody murdered me. Or put me in a potato. Or fed me to birds. I had a pretty good life. And then ''you'' showed up. You dangerous. Mute. Lunatic. [[spoiler:So you know what? You win. Just go. ''[Soft laughter]'' It's been fun. Don't come back.]]
650** She gives one to Wheatley, too, which serves to hit his BerserkButton at the worst possible moment.
651--->'''[=GLaDOS=]:''' Yes, ''you're'' the tumor! You're not just a regular moron. [[spoiler:You were ''designed'' to be a moron.]]
652** And right before that, [[spoiler:Wheatley gives one to Chell, serving as the setup to his FaceHeelTurn]]:
653--->[[spoiler:'''Wheatley:''' And don't think I'm not onto you too, lady. You know what you are? Selfish. I've done nothing but sacrifice to get us here, and what have you sacrificed? Nothing. Zero. All you've done is boss me around, well now who's the boss, who's the boss? It's me.]]
654** Most of the beginning of the game is [=GlaDOS=] giving these repeatedly to Chell.
655* ''VideoGame/PrinceOfPersiaTheTwoThrones'': When [[MoralityPet Farah]] first sees the Prince in [[SuperPoweredEvilSide his Sand Monster form]], she runs away, hurt that he kept that a secret from her. Even after he has turned back to his normal form, she refuses to trust him due to what she has seen of his behavior in regards to ignoring his own people's suffering in his determination to reach the BigBad. The dressing-down she gives the Prince leaves him to wonder if he has been wrong to listen to the advice of [[EnemyWithin the Dark Prince]], his ruthless alter-ego. This leads him to [[HeroicFireRescue rescue a lot of people from a burning workshop]], after which he reunites and reconciles with Farah.
656-->'''The Prince:''' ''[back in his normal form]'' Do you see now?! The change was physical, nothing more!\
657'''Farah:''' Why should I believe you? Everything you have done contradicts this! I have seen the way you hunger for combat! You take pleasure in creating death! Your constant talk of bloody vengeance, your cold disregard for your own people! You heard the women in the brothel as clearly as I did, yet you turned away!\
658'''The Prince:''' But I came back. I came back! For you...\
659'''Farah:''' You are a prince in title only. Go and reclaim your throne. But know this... you do so alone. ''[runs off]''
660** The last portion of the game is the Dark Prince giving one to the Prince, while the Prince travels through the Mental Realm, killing copies of his corrupted self. [[spoiler:In the end, the Prince only banishes the Dark Prince by walking to the exit and ignoring him, at Farah's behest]].
661--->'''Dark Prince:''' What did you expect? That when you slew the Vizier, I'd simply disappear? Oh, you are so blind! Your rage, your {{pride}}, your selfish ways! They gave me form and substance! Even with the Sands gone I have the strength to remain. And with the Vizier gone, I can take your place and rule the kingdom! And there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. [...] With the ability to manipulate time itself, you had the chance to be the greatest king the world has ever known. What wars you could have fought! What monuments you could have erected in your honor! What women you could have kept! [...] But you failed me, Prince! You grew soft and sympathetic! My attempts to convince you to seek glory fell on deaf ears. So, I bided my time, waiting for the proper moment to strike. [...] You do not deserve what you have been given- control over the world's greatest empire. With the power at your command, you could rule the world. You have SQUANDERED it, Prince! I would do it justice, and so it should be mine!\
662'''The Prince:''' [[ShutUpHannibal YOU ARE JUST A PARASITE! YOU DESERVE NOTHING]]!\
663'''Dark Prince:''' But don't I? Have I not earned it? Do you think you would be here now if not for me? How many times did I save you? How many times did I unblock your path, take down your enemies, remind you of your mission... while all you did was [[{{Wangst}} cry about your father... and Kaileena... and Farah... how everything bad always happens to you]]. BOO HOO, PRINCE!\
664'''The Prince:''' Your words are empty... have always been empty! You are just a desperate, selfish spirit!\
665'''Dark Prince:''' If I am selfish, Prince, it is because ''you are.'' If I am ruthless, and reckless, and lacking in morals... it is because ''you are!'' I did not spin myself out of the ether. I was not conjured by some mad vizier! [[PunctuatedForEmphasis I. Am. You]].\
666'''The Prince:''' [[LittleNo No]]. I have seen the error of my ways. And I have [[TheAtoner atoned for the transgressions of my past]]. [[ThatManIsDead I am no longer that person]].\
667'''Dark Prince:''' [[ShutUpKirk Seasons change. Tastes change. But people? People never change. And you delude yourself believing otherwise]]. Do not fight me. Embrace me. Set down your sword. [...] You mean to kill me, then? To cut me down like all your other enemies? [[SuddenlyShouting SWING THAT SWORD, PRINCE]]! ''[[[EvilLaugh laughs]]]'' We'll see how well ''that'' works. [...] Such violence! Your anger serves only to feed me. So I have to ask- [[ArmorPiercingQuestion have you really changed]]? After all, I am still right here, standing before you!
668* In ''VideoGame/{{Prototype}}'', Cross gives a short one to Alex Mercer, who at this point is being led around on a leash (not that this changes much, but Alex is particularly naive at this stage).
669-->(''To Alex grinning in triumph.'') You think you've ''won''? You don't even know what fucking game you're playing! Well, I can tell you all you need to know...about ''Penn Station''. ''(Alex yells and collapses in pain from memory recall, Cross watching dispassionately.)'' ...In a way, I feel sorry for you. ''(He injects Alex with a PowerNullifier parasite, rendering him unconscious.)''
670* ''VideoGame/Psych2021'': [[PlayerCharacter Alex]] answers a ringing phone in a phone booth, and in the ensuing conversation, the guy on the other end calls him "pathetic", a "hopeless case", and "a failure".
671* ''Quiplash'' contains this trope as an Easter Egg. On "The World's Most Boring Video Game", if you write "Quiplash" as your answer, the announcer will go on a profane rant about how hard the team has worked on it.
672* ''VideoGame/RedDeadRedemption2'': [[NobleDemon Arthur Morgan]] delivers one to Leopold Strauss [[spoiler:when he is disgusted with the way Strauss handles the loaning business, forcing it on many people who are in bad situations and unable to pay loans. If Arthur has High Honor, then it will follow up with a PatrickStewartSpeech about how the people whom Strauss has lent money to are the very same people who are truly good at heart in spite of themselves and in spite of the fact that one of them accidentally passed TB on to Arthur himself.]]
673* ''{{VideoGame/Rosenkreuzstilette}}'':
674** In Spiritia's story, [[spoiler:after defeating Iris, who afterwards is left in shock that she lost to someone that she believed was fighting all by herself, Tia responds correcting her about the fact that her victory was actually because everyone was cheering her on, and that no one truly fights alone. The heroine flat-out tells Iris how pathetic she was by pointing out that the reason why she couldn't win was because she couldn't believe in others nor love her fellow man]].
675** In ''Rosenkreuzstilette Grollschwert'', Grolla gets the chance to confront Graf Michael Sepperin, the one who revived her grandfather and mentor as a Grim Reaper-esque entity who wished to test Grolla's skills earlier to see if she was truly worthy of wielding the original Grollschwert. [[ThisIsUnforgivable Grolla was angry at the Count for disrupting her grandfather's peaceful slumber and wanted to punish him for having caused her such a grievous sin]]. The Count believed Grolla was an assassin hired by the Orthodox Church to murder [[spoiler:Iris, whom he didn't know was manipulating him all along]]. Grolla delivered a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to him out of pity towards him for [[spoiler:being deceived by his own flesh and blood]], and, thinking he wants to believe nobody but [[spoiler:his daughter]], no matter what, and therefore assuming what a fool she was for having respected him, began wondering what those who shared his ideals would think of him if they found out that [[{{Necromancer}} he was using the forbidden arts]].
676* ''VideoGame/RuneScape'':
677** The since-removed [[AuthorTract Botfinder General]] spent his whole life delivering these to players who get banned for using bots.
678** An even bigger one is delivered at the end of the quest ''Sliske's Endgame'' by [[spoiler:Jas, if you [[SchmuckBait choose]] to [[DoNotTauntCthulhu insult her]] instead of explaining your actions.]]
679--->[[spoiler:'''Jas:''' Self destructive. Needlessly defiant. Mortal life is an aberration. ''It shall end.'']]\
680'''Player:''' [[OhCrap Er]]... [[AintTooProudToBeg I guess an apology won't help?]]
681** In ''Daughter of Chaos'', Moia calls the player out on doing anything for the vague promise of a reward and for taking orders from their inferiors. Of course, with Moia being a [[TheSocialDarwinist Zamorakian]], her views are biased at best.
682--->'''Player:''' Strong words, coming from Bilrach's lapdog.\
683'''Moia:''' That's rich, coming from someone who licks every boot going. All anyone has to do is offer a reward and you'll do anything they say. How can I respect you when you don't even respect yourself?
684* ''VideoGame/SabresOfInfinity''
685** You can deliver a brief one to the incompetent Lieutenant Carrecort to inspire his troops to rebel against him and rally to you.
686** If you disrupt the mock charge to save Elson, you receive a blistering one from Captain Montez:
687--->'''Captain Montez:''' Perhaps you have forgotten, Cornet, but we are about to sail off to war. Would you sacrifice the lives of countless others in the face of enemy fire if it meant rescuing a personal acquaintance in such a stupidly reckless manner?
688** If Cazarosta leads the boarding party, he receives an especially cruel one from Captain Walken:
689--->'''Captain Walken:''' Half a dozen of my marines are dead including my best sergeant, another eight wounded. All because some entitled death-born idiot wanted to play officer! Good men are dead because you did not know your place. It is my opinion that the rotten fruit of such hideous miscegenation should have no place in His Majesty's Army!
690* The person you choose to confront in the penultimate mission of ''VideoGame/SaintsRowTheThird'' gives you one. Considering the SadisticChoice involved, they're both [[VillainsNeverLie right]]. Interestingly, each speech is more directed towards the ''other'' choice.
691-->'''Killbane:''' You were a fucking clown, selling energy drinks and lunch boxes. You didn't care about the crowd, just the paycheck.\
692'''Kia:''' Lin. Carlos. Aisha. Johnny... all you do is let your friends die.
693** Jon, the announcer of the Creator/AdultSwim station gives one [[BreakingTheFourthWall directly]] to the player.
694--->'''Jon:''' You sit around all day playing a video game and listening to fake radio stations. What are you doing with your life? Don't you want to get a girlfriend and maybe learn something new?
695* In the ''VideoGame/TheSecretWorld'' mission "Life Imitating Art," horror writer [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed Sam Krieg]] drops a massive one on the player; how much of it is accurate and how much of it is just drunken rambling is up to interpretation, but the fact that [[HeroicMute you can't answer back]] doesn't help.
696-->You know, you're just like one of my characters: [[NightmareFetishist you love evil]]. You don't run from it, you don't try to avoid it; you welcome it, you crave it. You invite the pain and cherish the suffering. You dive right into the [[TheCorruption Filth]] and you make no attempt to wash it off, and when you finally climb back out, it doesn't matter how bad it smells, how the stench and the taint cling to you, ''you just can't wait to dive back in.'' Like a dope fiend hankering for a fix, you don't want it to ever end. You ''need'' it. Your entire identity, your raison d'etre is at stake. Think about it: who would you be, ''what'' would you be, without this- without your precious war on evil, without your Secret World, without your sacred brotherhoods, your ranks and titles and rituals? You'd be just another rat stuck in the race with a dead-end job, living for a paycheck and the weekends, one long booze-soaked downhill slide towards the dark and cold grave. But you probably believe in what you do, believe it's right, that it's good. You soak in it so others don't have to. You take one for the team, you bend over and spread your legs and let the darkness inside... and somehow you justify it all with utilitarian pragmatism. You're a bona fide American hero!\
697''[{{Beat}}]''\
698Get the hell outta here. Go find an abyss to jump into, go soak yourself in Filth! Maybe it'll be different this time: maybe you'll save 'em all, maybe you'll finally find some goddamn peace... some closure... You're just like every single character I've ever written:\
699[[PrecisionFStrike Fucked]] from page one.
700** A segmented but no less vicious one occurs in the introduction to "From Carthage To Cairo." Here, Säid the {{Mummy}} has [[EvenEvilHasStandards finally had enough of his business partners]] among the Phoenician brotherhood, and severs ties to them with one of these, easily shutting down Tanis when she tries to threaten him back into business.
701--->'''Säid:''' I'm not taking on any new enemies at the moment.\
702'''Tanis:''' ''[through gritted teeth]'' You're making one right now!\
703'''Säid:''' You have made a simple arrangement infinitely more complicated. My advice? Get that ass of yours insured. It would be your gift to the world.\
704''[He turns to leave, but Tanis draws a gun from her belt and shoves it in Säid's face]''\
705'''Säid:''' Oh ''please'', we're above this. Well, one of us is. ''[sniffs the gun barrel]'' Mmmm... Gun oil, desperation and cheap perfume. Tanis, Tanis, Tanis.\
706'''Tanis:''' '[lowering the gun]'' [[VillainousBreakDown So what do you want, huh? Money? Blood sacrifices? T-the Spear of Destiny? We have the wealth of Carthage, there must be something you want!]]\
707'''Säid:''' Goodness, let's not debase ourselves any more than we absolutely must. Not wealth: ''honour.'' Carthage has long sold out of that stock. You've made your sarcophagus, now go lie in it. I shouldn't think we'll meet again. ''[leaves]''
708** Issue #6 features [[ArcVillain Abdel Daoud]] delivering one of these to you; technically, it's directed at Säid, but given that he isn't around to get bitched at, the player character ends up as the recipient for allying with Säid and the Kingdom.
709--->It is disappointing to find you here, running errands: you do not make good use of [[FunctionalMagic the gifts]] you have been given. You are working for [[TheNecrocracy the Kingdom]]. What do you know of this man, this ''thing?'' He crawled from his tomb, a man out of time, and did he improve the world? Did he take up a cause? No! [[TheHedonist He lost himself in wealth and debauchery]]. Do you think he believes in what you do? This man, this Kingdom, he believes in nothing. His morals are as far behind him as his memories of being alive. Such a waste of immortality!
710** In the final act of Issue #11, [[MegaCorp Orochi]] [[CorruptCorporateExecutive CEO Samuel Chandra]] [[spoiler: AKA the angel Samael]] issues one of these to you as you fight through the penthouse floor, dryly lambasting you for various flaws: pretensions to heroism, naiveté, recklessness... and for good measure, he starts insulting most of humanity in general.
711--->Heroism is my favourite delusion. The posture of your every step betrays it. In a certain [[Literature/ParadiseLost Milton-esque light]], you may be correct, but your white hat is stained: [[NotSoDifferentRemark your secret society is in the old business of domination]]. You are the intruder here today. Please leave. [...] Still you continue. There is an artefact of junk programming in your brain, a broken line of code in the DNA of your species: the irresistible tendency towards self-destruction. You can see this in the repeated atrocities of history, or even in the simple act of procrastination. If you see the edge of the abyss, you needs must leap. I have been a facilitator of your kind's boundless desire to destroy itself... [[TimeAbyss since the beginning]]. Since iron cathedrals stained the moon red with sacrificial pyres. Since machined cities crossed the sea upon gears and gossamer sail. Even in the hummingbird heartbeat of your recorded time. You are [[DamnedByFaintPraise an exceptional footnote]] in a text one could not even leaf through in a star's life cycle, so I invite you to contemplate how quickly my eyes gloss over you. Don't take it personally. You are the product of an imperfect creation, infants abandoned on the doorstep of technology... and now, after all these years, [[EnigmaticEmpoweringEntity your estranged mother comes back to you through an insect's mouth]], to tell you she always loved you best. Well, [[SuperGullible if you believe that]], [[TakeThat our marketing focus groups would like to hear from you]].
712* EvilMentor and BigBad of ''VisualNovel/SharinNoKuni''[='=]s Masaomi Houzuki's dialogue consists of verbally destroying everything somebody believes in or being a ReasonableAuthorityFigure, doing a one man GoodCopBadCop routine. {{Ubermensch}} that he is, he's really, really good at it.
713* In ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiIIINocturne'', Hikawa gives one to Yuko when the latter tries to stop him from making his Reason of [[WorldOfSilence Shijima]] a reality in the name of "freedom."
714-->'''Hikawa:''' How is it that you still don't understand? Freedom was never a thing. It existed in name only, as a front for wholesale corruption. If you really believe in concepts like "freedom" and "potential," why bother with creation? Were these things not present- abundant, more accurately- in the previous world? Why did you not pursue your goal back then?\
715'''Yuko:''' ...I mean...\
716'''Hikawa:''' You are as guilty as those you judge. And what did you hope to achieve by sending your students here? Did you think they'd be able to do what you couldn't? Or did you want them to feel the same agony of defeat that you felt? Do you know why you've been unable to obtain your Reason? All this time, you've just been running away... trying to leave everything behind. ''(Yuko collapses to her knees)'' Tell me the truth. Do you really believe in freedom?
717* In ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiIVApocalypse'', this is weaponized against [[spoiler:the final boss and TopGod YHVH]] by the supporting cast in the [[ThePowerOfFriendship Bonds]] route: [[spoiler:All of your battle partners, Flynn, and his two former battle partners each step forward to deny each aspect of YHVH's divinity, and since this is a universe where GodsNeedPrayerBadly and one where [[YourMindMakesItReal humanity's understanding determines what is reality]], it cripples Him gradually until He's reduced to a mere demon like all of the other gods He's subjugated.]]
718* In the ''VideoGame/ShovelKnight'' DLC ''Plague of Shadows'', the second version of this trope is exchanged from Polar Knight to Plague Knight. After trying to ignore the alchemist, Polar Knight straight up tells Plague Knight that he's never liked him. He goes on to state that he holds wizards, books, trickery and everything Plague Knight stands for in complete contempt, calling him a weakling. What makes this exchange even darker is that this is the most emotion and volition Polar Knight has expressed in the series thus far. The first time he uses moving text in the whole series is when he yells at Plague Knight, calling him a weakling a second time just to get the message clear. Plague Knight was not affected by it, though.
719* ''VideoGame/SlyCooperThievesInTime'': During the FinalBoss fight, Sly gives one to [[spoiler: Le Paradox when told of his revenge plan regarding the Cooper lineage—to be known as the world's greatest thief by stealing their canes. Sly calls him out on this, pointing out that Le Paradox never did the ''actual'' stealing; rather, he got his "partners" to do all the dirty work before tossing them aside and claiming credit for what ''they'' did. Furthermore, Sly also mentions that going after the Cooper line for such a petty reason—for no other purpose than to feed his ego—was just downright stupid, because it not only ended up drawing Sly's attention (and thus interference) in the first place, it also drew Carmelita's attention to his stolen treasure smuggling ring. Put straight, Le Paradox lost everything because he couldn't resist showing off]].
720* ''VideoGame/SpecOpsTheLine'': [[spoiler:The imaginary]] Col. John Konrad delivers one to Cpt. Martin Walker, the protagonist[[note]]and in a LeaningOnTheFourthWall fashion, the player at the same time[[/note]], calling out ''both'' on his power fantasy and desire to be a hero through fantastical achievements and [[KnightTemplar imagined righteousness]]. The game outright tells the player [[IJustWantToBeBadass that their desire to be badass in a virtual world]] is pathetic. Loading screens ask, "How many Americans did you kill today?", "Do you feel like a hero yet?" and "Can you even remember why you're here?", among other [[YouBastard condemning messages]]. [[spoiler:By the end of the game, the imaginary Konrad calls the protagonist out for it, pointing out that he was DeadAllAlong. That means Walker is giving the speech to ''himself'', made evident when in one scene Konrad disappears and Walker can be seen mouthing the words we hear Konrad speaking.]]
721-->'''[[spoiler:Shadow]] Konrad:''' [[spoiler: It takes a strong man to deny what's right in front of him. And if the truth is undeniable, you create your own. The truth, Walker, is that you're here because you wanted to feel like something you're not: a hero. I'm here because you can't accept what you've done. It broke you. You needed someone to blame, so you cast it on me. A dead man. I know the truth is hard to hear Walker, but it's time. You're all that's left and we can't live this lie forever.]]
722* In ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'', most of Valkorian's speeches to the [[PlayerCharacter Outlander]] are some form of this. Most of the PlayerCharacter responses amount to a ShutUpHannibal.
723* ''VideoGame/SuikodenV'' has a very short one given to [[spoiler: Sialeeds]], who has defected to Godwin by Lucretia.
724-->'''Lucretia:''' I know what you were trying to do, but in the end, your logic was no different from Godwin's.
725* Bowser seems to like giving these to his arch-nemesis in [[VideoGame/SuperMario64 the]] [[VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy 3D]] ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' [[VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy2 games.]] "Look at you, running around like a flea on a puny planetoid. Know what isn't puny? My massive new power... The power to flatten you like a space pancake!" This doesn't stop him from being defeated once again.
726* Just before the last world in ''VideoGame/SonicRushAdventure'', Blaze, already fed up with [[BrattyHalfPint Marine the Raccoon]] over the course of the game, reaches her RageBreakingPoint and gives a ''very'' satisfying chew-out when she gets whiny and petulant about being advised not to tag along in the FinalBoss battle for her own safety.
727-->'''Blaze:''' Marine, do you remember the promise you made? You said that you'd agree to the group's decisions, right?\
728'''Marine:''' ...whoa, hey, where's all this coming from, then? You're all just yanking my chain, right? I'm still game! I'm ridgy-didge!\
729'''Tails:''' Yeah, but Marine...\
730'''Marine:''' You said you were ready to go, mate, so let's go! There's no way I'm packing up and quitting this 'ere adventure-!\
731'''Blaze:''' '''[[BigShutUp MARINE!]] ''[[BigShutUp LISTEN!]]'' '''\
732'''Marine:''' Crikey, [[SuddenlyShouting what's with all the shouting all of a sudden?]]\
733'''Blaze:''' Since you don't seem to understand what we're getting at, [[BrutalHonesty I'll just say it]]. '''''[[TakeThatScrappy YOU'RE A NUISANCE!]]'''''\
734'''Marine:''' A... a... nuisance...? Wh... what do you mean?\
735'''Blaze:''' Just ''what I said.''\
736'''Marine:''' I... I'm not a nuisance! I... I mean, I was your Captain, right? I... I was always looking out for you lot. Come on! Tell her, Sonic! Tails!\
737'''Sonic and Tails:''' ''[[[VisibleSilence …]]]''\
738'''Marine:''' You... you all DO think I'm a nuisance, don't you?! You... ''[[[InelegantBlubbering bursts into tears]]]'' '''''YOU'RE ALL A BUNCH OF DRONGOS!''''' ''[[[RunningAwayToCry runs out of the house crying]]]''\
739'''Sonic:''' Wh... hey!\
740'''Tails:''' [[WhatTheHellHero That was harsh, Blaze.]] I mean, I know we can't take her with us, but you didn't have to-\
741'''Blaze:''' If I hadn't been harsh, she would've kept insisting that she come along.\
742'''Tails:''' [[JerkassHasAPoint I... guess you've got a point, there.]]
743* In ''VideoGame/SwordOfTheBerserkGutsRage'', Rita combines this with WhatTheHellHero by delivering the following speech after she and Casca almost get killed by Balzac's men while he's not there.
744-->'''Rita:''' ''[slaps Guts]'' What the hell do you think you're doing? You blew it! You think you're so tough with that [[{{BFS}} big hunk of metal]] hanging on your back! But you can't even protect one woman! Some hero...
745* Before and after the final boss fight of ''VideoGame/{{Syndicate}}'' (2012), [[spoiler:Jack Denham]] lectures your PlayerCharacter on your delusions of morality, the fact that you're just a tool and calls you out on the damage you've done.
746* SHODAN does this a ''lot'' in the ''VideoGame/SystemShock'' franchise, calling you "insect," "irritant," "maggot," and so on, always calling your body "meat," and doesn't hesitate to say you're inferior just because you're a human being.
747* In ''VideoGame/TalesOfRebirth'', Tytree Crowe delivers one to Saleh:
748-->"Someone like you who takes pleasure in trampling on the hearts of others will never ever understand! The human heart... the feelings that people have are stronger than anything else!! Remember that!!".
749** However, Saleh runs on ForTheEvulz and thus stuck with 'joy of trampling people's hearts', remaining irritating and yet never even beating the heroes or getting more powerful.
750* ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'':
751** Luke gets a ''lot'' of brief [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech the Reason You Suck comments]] from ''every other party member'' after [[spoiler:Luke destroys Akzeriuth.]] But it's Asch who delivers the most armor-piercing one. In fact, he actually gives Luke the real reason why he does indeed suck:
752--->'''Asch:''' And you! Why didn't you think before [[spoiler:using your hyperresonance?]]\
753'''Luke:''' So you're saying it's my fault too?\
754'''Asch:''' Of course it's your fault! Don't even try to [[NeverMyFault deny it!]]...Are all [[spoiler:replica brains]] this defective?...You still haven't figured it out? Is this someone's idea of a joke?!...That's right! You're [[spoiler:a second-rate copy of me! A mere replica!]]
755** Tear gives one to her former mentor Legretta just before they fight on Eldrant, a battle that ends with Legretta's death. While Tear had seen Legretta as her enemy for the entire game, she's especially bitter in response to Legretta's explanation of why she's willing to support the BigBad.
756--->"[[DisappointedByTheMotive Those are your true feelings?]] [[DisappointedInYou Then I've lost all respect for you.]] [[{{Hypocrite}} You talk about free will, and yet you don't have any of your own!]] [[BrokenPedestal You are not the knight of Lorelei I looked up to.]]"
757* ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'': At the beginning of disc two, when the party briefly returns to Lloyd's hometown of Iselia, they find the mayor, who has been shown to be a major HateSink from the beginning of the game, going on a rant to some villagers about everything from Lloyd returning to the village without permission after being banished, to Genis and Raine having hidden the fact that they were half-elves (as the mayor is one of many, many people who are prejudiced against them), to Colette having "atrociously" failed her journey to regenerate the world as the ChosenOne. Chocolat -- who herself has been shown to hate Lloyd until this point due to believing him to be responsible for her grandmother's death -- and the rest of the villagers then proceed to give the mayor a complete verbal beatdown, pointing out how he and others like him have done nothing but complain while pushing the entire responsibility of saving the world onto Lloyd and Colette's group only to blame them when things turned out badly, and how even the children of the village have shown more wisdom than the mayor by standing up for the group instead of blaming them.
758-->'''Chocolat:''' Those children understand the truth much better than you! Who do you think you are?! And it's not just you! Everyone shoved all the responsibility on the Chosen and Lloyd and the others! What have you done?! You haven't done anything!
759* ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'':
760** Dominate opponents with some of the characters, and they will deliver examples of these:
761--->'''Scout Dominating Heavy:''' Nice hustle, [[YouAreFat Tons of Fun]]! Next time, eat a salad!\
762'''Spy Dominating Medic:''' I'm looking at your x-ray, and I'm afraid you SUCK!\
763'''Spy Dominating Demoman:''' Here's what I have that you don't: a functioning liver, depth perception, and a ''pulse''!\
764'''Sniper Dominating Any Class:''' You're making this so easy, I'm actually getting ''worse''.
765** The Administrator is also an unpleasable dictator, so when you do poorly, she'll let you know ''exactly'' how poorly.
766* ''VideoGame/TheNewOrderLastDaysOfEurope'': If you are playing as [[TheGoodKing Rurik II]], he can deliver an utterly ''scathing'' speech to the [[ThoseWackyNazis Fuhrer of the Third Reich]]. Just give it a read, it's epic.
767-->"To the murderous demagogue <name>...\
768\
769You consider yourself the herald of the so-called master race, but you are both blind and delusional if you think that this fantasy is even remotely true. Germany is a [[AlwaysChaoticEvil nation of barbarians, leaving only a path of destruction and misery wherever they go]]. Can you really call your Reich a civilized state if it was [[UsefulNotes/TheHolocaust built upon the bones of so many innocent lives? I think not!]]\
770\
771Your 'Greater' Germanic Reich is the culmination of every single thing that is rotten with this world. [[CultOfPersonality All over, German children are made to sing your praises in the schoolhouses and German men are made to chant your name in the streets]]. [[CompensatingForSomething Are you really so insecure that you need constant validation of your worthiness from an entire nation's worth of people?]] How much longer do you expect to [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain prattle on about meaningless boogeymen like 'subhumans' or 'Jews']] before the people of Germany grow tired of the charade and realize that their true enemy is the ugly man whose face is plastered all over the walls?\
772\
773We Russians have not forgotten about our true opponent, however. This nation was once a thriving center of culture and civilization, cruelly ground into dust by your raging horde of barbarians. The truth is, [[DirtyCoward you fear us]]. You [[DeathFromAbove expend so many resources trying to keep our people down]] because you know that, given the chance, we would annihilate your poisonous regime without mercy. [[MakeTheBearAngryAgain Rest assured, the day will come when the countless injustices your dark forces had inflicted upon our people are corrected once and for all!]]\
774\
775Sincerely,\
776Rurik II, Tsar and Autocrat of All Rus"
777* ''VideoGame/Uncharted4AThiefsEnd'': Rafe delivers one to Nate during their confrontation in the climax.
778-->'''Rafe:''' You know, for all your "greatness," Nate, you have nothing. You are nothing. And I warned you to get out of my way.
779* In ''VideoGame/TraumaCenter'', Angie is worried over a patient that has some abnormal conditions despite the surgery going well and should be checked out to avoid complications. Derek agrees, but blows Angie off for a personal event he planned to go to and says that he'll look into the issue the following day. Later on, Angie calls Derek and demands for him to return to the hospital due to the patient now suffering from several complications and that Derek should watch the other doctors operate on them to see the consequences of his actions. While Dr. Hoffman is grilling Derek over what happened, Angie walks in on the meeting to tell everyone that Derek threw her under the bus and then she gives him a very brutal verbal beatdown for his carelessness and slacker attitude. This what gets him to wake up and start taking his job more seriously after taking time to think on her words.
780-->'''Angie:''' Mr. Stiles... maybe you didn't harm the patient directly... But... How can I work under a doctor who doesn't even try to act like one!? It doesn't matter how small or groundless a suspicion might be... The patients are depending on you to take care of them! Why did you become a doctor? Do you even know!?
781-->'''Derek:''' I--That is, I...
782-->'''Angie:''' You don't deserve to be here! You... You're not a real doctor!
783-->'''Derek:''' ......!
784* ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'':
785** Undyne gives you one of these just before you fight her. If you're not on a PacifistRun, she condemns you for every monster you've killed, [[DevelopersForesight with several different variants on the speech depending on who exactly you've killed]]. If you haven't killed anyone, she mocks you for apparently thinking that being nice is the solution to all problems, and tells you that you should have just given yourself up so Asgore could use your SOUL to break the barrier.
786** If you go on a Genocide Run, [[spoiler:Sans will give you several reasons why you suck -- both during the battle, at the end of it, and sometimes even when you are defeated and come back for more!]]
787** If you're playing the True PacifistRun, then [[spoiler:Toriel]] appears towards the end and delivers one to [[spoiler:Asgore]], criticizing the recipient for being dishonest with [[spoiler:himself]].
788--->[[spoiler:'''Asgore:''' [[AffectionateNickname Tori]]...you came back!\
789'''Toriel:''' Do not "Tori" me, Dreemurr! You pathetic whelp. If you really wanted to free our kind, you could have gone through the barrier after you got '''ONE''' SOUL, taken six [=SOULs=] from the humans, then come back and freed everyone peacefully. But instead, you made everyone live in despair. Because you would rather wait here, meekly hoping another human never comes.]]
790* ''VideoGame/UnemploymentQuest'', which stars a recent college graduate trying to get a job, involves the main character getting many such speeches from the various monsters, who embody his negative emotions. One of the most cutting comes from Uncertain Present, the FinalBoss, immediately before the final battle.
791-->"So, you were stupid enough to think you could stand up for yourself. Don't you see there is no hope for you? Your sense of entitlement makes me laugh. Would you prefer to be on welfare? Or do you think you might be able to crawl from the gutter to be worthy of flipping burgers?"
792* Playing as a Toreador in ''VideoGame/VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlines'' and being just as petulant as the clan stereotype will result in a segmented but impressively derisive speech from Gary Golden.
793-->[[SpoiledBrat You're used to getting what you want]], aren't you, handsome? People just love your charisma, your ''face''; they eat your words up like the rats eat the cheese in the trap! Oh, ''boss''- where do you think you are?\
794''[after he reveals himself]''\
795En Guard, Toreador! You vainglorious, narcissistic poser! How I loathe that determination of your kind to belie your true nature with Paris Fashions and pomp! You are a dead thing, a creature of the shadows... ''start acting like one.''\
796You don't get it, do you? Sit and look pretty. Pretend you never died. Do some finger-painting. What a pathetic waste of blood...
797* ''VideoGame/{{Vindictus}}'' NPC Gallagher is fond of giving these to the player character, [[JerkAss for no real good reason]]. He gets a few from other [=NPCs=], who [[TheScrappy clearly dislike the guy]].
798* ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadTelltale'':
799** The Stranger to Lee Everett in Season 1 Episode 5. Every single choice you've made in the game, no matter what, has negative repercussions. And he points out every single one along with every single mistake you've ever made. If you've played Lee as a paragon of virtue this can come off as a bit ridiculous, though.
800** In Season 2 Episode 4, Clementine can lay into Kenny after Sarita's death, accusing him of feeling sorry for himself and acting like he's the only one who's lost loved ones to the Walkers, telling him (depending on your choice in Season One) that she had to shoot Lee and to man up and get over it. He reacts about as well as you'd expect a hot-tempered mentally-unstable guy to react.
801** In Season 3, David often gets this from everyone around him including his family members. In the season finale, Kate even berates him for using military slang on his family and refusal to save New Richmond and dumps him.
802** Javier can give Gabriel a short speech in Season 3 Episode 4, telling him that he is tired of Gabe trying to be a lone warrior or martyr when he's actually a boy trying to prove himself a man.
803** In Season 4 Episode 3, after seeing how much Minerva had changed and discovering that she had killed her own sister, Violet/Louis chews on her for being weak. Near the end of the episode, after being captured by Delta, James ironically echoes Carley's last words to Lilly, calling her weak and afraid.
804** In Season 4 Episode 4, Clem can give a brutal one to Lilly if she survived the previous episode. No matter what options you pick, Clem will brutally tear into Lilly, calling her out on her cowardice for abandoning her own people, telling her that she deserves to be alone after all the terrible things she's done and calling her pathetic to name a few options. By the time she's done, Lilly can't even muster up a response and sadly turns around and leaves. The character reviews at the end of the episode will even note the Clementine left Lilly feeling "shamed."
805* ''VideoGame/{{Warframe}}'':
806** If you support the Corpus against General Sargas Ruk and the Grineer during the Gravidus Dilemma, Ruk will call you out as willing to sacrifice your own and die for a worthless cause.
807--->'''Sargas Ruk:''' Rraaahudd Tenno! So willing to sacrifice your own. So willing to help these greedy worms. So willing to die for worthless cause.
808** On the flipside, if you support the Grineer against Alad V and the Corpus, Alad will call you out as hypocrites.
809--->'''Alad V:''' So, the Betrayers are fighting for the dogs now? Why am I not surprised. The sooner my Zanuka Project is completed, the better. The system must be ridden of your hypocrisy.
810** During the Deadlock Protocol event, [[spoiler:Parvos Granum, [[OurFounder Founder]] of the Corpus and Nef Anyo's (supposed) own father, delivers a scathing one to his own "son", deriding all of Nef's self-aggrandizing laziness and cowardice.]]
811--->'''[[spoiler:Parvos Granum]]:''' 'My name'. Hmm... I have watched you. Monuments to narcissism. Demanding others sweat in your stead. Gorging upon that upon which you have not earned. Watched... as you claimed for yourself my teachings of self-reliance, perverting them into a flaccid philosophy of sloth. Of... Idleness. Is that you, my son?\
812'''[[spoiler:Nef Anyo]]:''' No, that must be a different son.
813* In the final cutscene of ''VideoGame/Warhammer40000SpaceMarine'' Titus delivers a short one to [[spoiler:Leandros]], telling him that [[spoiler:his blind adherence to the letter of the Codex Astartes is a failing on his part]].
814-->'''Titus:''' The ''Codex Astartes'' is a set of rules. They guide us... shape us as Ultramarines... teach us to hold duty and honour sacred above all. But how we live with those rules is the true test of a Space Marine. And ''you'' have failed.
815** In a way, Titus is also 100% correct in this manner. [[spoiler:Leandros ''DID'' fail. You're supposed to report Battle-Brothers you suspect of heresy to a Space Marine Chaplain, not directly to the Inquisition.]]
816* ''VideoGame/WhackYour'': At the very beginning of the game, your boss will come in to scold you in a very long rant that you can choose to listen to:
817-->'''The Boss:''' No no no no no. Wrong, wrong, wrong. It's come to my attention that you're not measuring up. You need to stay late. Again. [[ThisIsGoingToSuck With no overtime.]] Your project has to be ''[[HereWeGoAgain completely]]'' redone. [[ButtMonkey You can't seem to do]] ''[[ButtMonkey anything]]'' [[ButtMonkey right.]] Oh - I'm gonna have to write you up again too. You're just not measuring up. That's ''three more demerits'' this week. Did you get the memo about the paycut? 10% across the board. We've got to cut back, it's the bottom line, you see. And your insurance copays? Yeah, they're going up. Better tighten your belt. We're merging with a bigger company. [[KickThemWhileTheyAreDown There's gonna be one flavor of ice cream, one brand of coffee, one car.]] There's twenty people waiting for your job. One third of Americans work for less than $8.50 an hour. [[LackOfEmpathy Get used to it.]] Be happy with what you got. You'll have to play catch up on the weekend, [[RunningGag with no overtime pay of course.]] You're not meeting your quota. What's that you say? [[HarderThanHard The quota's impossible to meet?]] ''Duh.'' Here's how it works. I sit in my office; my corner office, and I do some simple math. I look at other companies similar to ours. I get stats, I take a nap...''[[[{{Gasshole}} burps]]]'' I crunch some numbers, and if the figures show it's only humanly possible for one person to complete, say, 10 projects a week...[[KickTheDog I double it]]. and that becomes your new quota, 20 projects per week. Simple. ''Of course it's impossible.'' [[UnwinnableByDesign That's the whole point.]] Gotta keep you on edge. We'll give you some malarkey about setting the bar high, meeting goals, etc., but that's not the real reason. We've got to keep you in fear. Fearful people develop low self-esteem. Thus, they'll never ask for a raise. What? ...You want a raise?
818** In ''Whack Your Boss 2: Fantasy Edition'', he again has another one directed at you:
819--->'''The Boss:''' [[CallBack No no no no no. Wrong, wrong, wrong.]] Didn't you get the memo? Here's a fun fact: memos are not created to inform the recipient. They're designed to protect the sender. So, how long have you been sitting there? Over ten years, and in that time, nothing has changed except you've gotten weaker, and I've gotten stronger. It's been heaven; corporate mergers, less government restrictions. Governments, that's a laugh. I now have the power to ''sue'' governments. They can't even protect their own intellectual property. Which means I create nothing new, and I'm proud of it. I simply sit back, and wait for someone else to create something, then, I steal it. What's that? I'm a parasite? Of course I am. Parasites are survivors, and they will outlive most species in the impending mass extinction. Awww... is that depressing? Good. I ''want'' you in a depressed hell where you won't ask for anything. Even this cubicle was designed to break you down by separating you from your fellows. At the same time, it deprives you the privacy of a real office. Thus, your cubicle takes away your community ''and'' privacy, zero dignity. You feel trapped? Alone? Powerless? Have your doctor write you another prescription. You want to know how ''I'' tolerate this place? Here's a little secret: I don't like working here, I ''love'' it. I ''thrive'' here. I mask my low self-esteem with corporate buzzwords like "vibrant", "robust", "core competency", "optics", "sustainability"... that's a joke. Sustainable energy projects will cost the company way too much money. The environment can wait. Oh, polar bears are dying? Grizzly bears will handle it. As we speak, grizzlies are moving north and mating with the polar bears. A whole new species! Bees are dying? Switch to agabey. Save the whales? Clone the whales. Debate that around your little water cooler. Oh, and enjoy that free cup of water. It could be your last. What you heard is true, water is the new oil. The water wars aren't coming. They're already here. Didn't you get the memo?
820* ''Franchise/TheWitcher'': In the first game, if you choose to save the witch Abigail from being burned by the villagers in the Outskirts, Geralt delivers an awesome rebuke to the torch and pitchfork-wielding mob and their fanatical church leader:
821-->'''Geralt:''' You have two options. Wait until I leave and then murder Abigail -- but then I'll come back. I'll slay every lice ridden peasant, anything that moves and can't climb a tree. Or, you can try to lead honourable lives, clear your conscience, start again -- like humans. The choice is yours.
822* In ''VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou'', Higashizawa, the first Game Master Neku faces, gives one to Shiki that results in her going into a HeroicBSOD for an entire day.
823-->'''Higashizawa:''' Sadly, I've had my fill for the day. I only came here to meet you, young lady.\
824'''Shiki:''' Me? ...Why?\
825'''Higashizawa:''' To get a closer look, of course. At the charcoal-black envy beneath the barbecue of your heart.\
826'''Shiki:''' I...I don't understand.\
827'''Higashizawa:''' Oh, don't you, though? You can't fool me. You know the feelings are there, so you bury them. Your talk of loyalty, of dreams and friendship... They're no more than a lid on your stir-fry of jealousy.\
828'''Shiki:''' !?\
829'''Higashizawa:''' Oh, how deeply you must hate yourself. [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor You have EXACTLY what you always wanted...but it's not enough, is it]]?\
830'''Shiki:''' ......\
831'''Higashizawa:''' No one loves you. You can't love yourself. And so the jealousy consumes you.\
832'''Shiki:''' Stop it!\
833'''Higashizawa:''' That friendly sugar coating can't sweeten the selfishness inside you. You think you're more important than anyone else. And THAT'S where jealousy begins...\
834'''Shiki:''' No...I'm not--\
835'''Higashizawa:''' [[ShutUpKirk You are. And you know it]]. Why else would your entry fee be--\
836'''Shiki:''' Stop! Don't say it!\
837'''Higashizawa:''' Heh heh... That complex of yours is a bruise on the tomato of your soul.\
838'''Shiki:''' No, I... I'm just...\
839'''Higashizawa:''' Nothing will change if you are restored to life. You'll just go on hating yourself and being jealous of everybody else.\
840'''Shiki:''' No... Please don't...
841* Arthas attempts to deliver one of these to Tirion Fordring in a memorable ''[[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft Wrath of the Lich King]]'' quest line, claiming that the Argent Crusade can never defeat him because they insist on [[IKnowYouAreInThereSomewhereFight trying to redeem evil]] instead of destroying it. Fortunately, Tirion isn't quite that stupid.
842** Ner'zhul also gives one to Kel'Thuzad in the short story Road to Damnation.
843** Arthas failed to learn from his earlier encounter with Tirion. At the start of his battle in Icecrown Citadel he freezes Tirion in a block of ice "To witness the end." At the end [[spoiler:Arthas kills the raid at once, and proceeds to tell Tirion how [[EvilPlan his whole plan was to find the greatest champions of Azeroth and make them his new lieutenants.]] Too bad Tirion calls upon the Light to break out of his iceblock, then shatters Frostmourne with the Ashbringer, releasing the pissed off souls the Lich King had collected.]]
844** During the Battle for the Undercity, Varian gives one to Thrall(as well as Sylvanas and the rest of the Horde) furious about how [[TheStarscream a rogue Forsaken alchemist]] had launched an attack on the Alliance and Horde forces at the Wrathgate, seemingly killing Bolvar Fordragon, among other things.
845--->'''Varian:''' I was away for too long. My absence cost us the lives of some of our greatest heroes. Trash like you and this evil witch were allowed to roam free -- unchecked. The time has come to make things right. To disband your treacherous kingdom of murderers and thieves. Putress was the first strike. Many more will come. I've waited a long time for this, Thrall. For every time I was thrown into one of your damned arenas... for every time I killed a green-skinned aberration like you... I could only think of one thing. What our world could be without you and your twisted Horde... It ends now, Warchief. ATTACK! FOR STORMWIND! [[AndThisIsFor FOR BOLVAR]]! [[BattleCry FOR THE ALLIANCE]]!
846** Come Cataclysm, Vol'jin gives one to Garrosh Hellscream, declaring that he's going down the same road as his father even without the same influence as the demon blood, and suggesting that he will eventually alienate the rest of the Horde and die at Vol'jin's hands. Vol'jin later comes to regret saying this, however, admitting he let his temper get the better of him.
847--->'''Garrosh:''' Don't talk back to me, troll. You know who was left in charge here. Haven't you stopped to ask yourself why Thrall chose me instead of you?\
848'''Vol'jin:''' Dere be no question why, Garrosh. He gave ya tha title because ya be Grom's Son and because tha people be wantin' a war hero. To which I tink ya be even more like [[BloodKnight ya father]] den he thought, even without ya havin' [[DrunkOnTheDarkSide da demon blood]].\
849'''Garrosh:''' You are lucky I don't gut you right here, whelp. You are foolish to think that you can speak to your Warchief in such ways.\
850'''Vol'jin:''' Ya be no Warchief of mine. Ya've not earned my respect and I'll not be seein' tha Horde destroyed by ya foolish thirst for war.\
851'''Garrosh :''' And what exactly do you think that you'll do about it? Your threats are hollow. Go slink away with the rest of your kind in the slums. I will endure your filth in my throne room no longer.\
852'''Vol'jin:''' I know exactly what I'll be doin' about it, son of Hellscream. I'll be watchin' as ya people slowly become aware of ya ineptitude. I'll laugh as dey grow ta despise ya as I do. And when tha time comes dat ya failure is complete and ya "power" is meaningless, I will be dere to end ya rule, swiftly and silently. Ya will spend ya reign glancin' over ya shoulda and fearin' tha shadows, for when tha time comes and ya blood be slowly drainin' out, ya will know exactly who fired da arrow dat pierced ya heart.\
853'''Garrosh:''' You have sealed your fate, troll.\
854'''Vol'jin:''' And you yours, "Warchief".
855** In the quest "Matters of Loyalty," Drek'thar gives one to [[TokenEvilTeammate the Forsaken]], as well as Cromush for assisting them.
856--->'''Drek'Thar:''' So you have come seeking our aid? ''[Drek'Thar coughs.]'' I... *cough* I have been alive for a very long time. In that time I have seen and done terrible things. Things that still keep me awake at nights. [[TheAtoner But these terrible things that I have done and the people that I have harmed - I know them... I face them... and I feel remorse for them]]. But the Forsaken. *cough* What do they feel? They ravage the land and destroy everything that they touch. [[PoisonIsEvil How many lives have been lost to their vile poisons]]? How many innocents have fallen before the Forsaken war machine? Countless... countless lives... *cough* Yes... I have done terrible things, but nothing could ever be as terrible as lending aid to the Forsaken. You go back to that spineless orc who would not come see me and you tell him that the Frostwolf clan will not aid the Forsaken. Not now, not ever! [[GetOut BEGONE]]!
857** At the end of the Stonetalon Mountains Horde questline, the player watches as Overlord Krom'gar, a capable but paranoid and rather extreme soldier, [[EarthShatteringKaboom drops a massive bomb]] on a grove of innocent night elf druids, incorrectly thinking they were hiding a weapon of mass destruction. Garrosh, having caught wind of the plot, arrives too late to stop it; furious, he gives Krom'gar a scathing put-down before dropping him off a cliff ''by the throat''.
858--->'''Garrosh:''' I sent you into Stonetalon Mountains with an army. Your orders were to secure this land for the Horde. Instead, you laid waste to the land. Murdered innocents. Children even... [...] Overlord Krom'gar, you have disgraced the Horde. You have brought shame to us as a people. By my right as Warchief, I hereby relieve you of your duty. YOU. ARE. DISMISSED.
859** Garrosh later gives one to Thrall just before the final battle of the Siege of Orgrimmar:
860--->'''Garrosh:''' Ha! Do you remember nothing of honor? Of glory on the battlefield? You who would [[EnemyMine parlay with the humans]], who allowed warlocks to practice their dark magics right under our feet. You are weak. We are the Orcish Horde, the True Horde. We die, bloody and thrashing on the field of battle, like true orcs ''SHOULD''. You are an orc no longer, and speak for none but yourself. You betrayed our people to forge your fragile alliances and I will take great pleasure in tearing them apart.
861** After his defeat, Garrosh gets a short but effective one from Thrall.
862--->'''Thrall:''' [[DisappointedInYou You disappoint]] [[MeaningfulEcho me, Garrosh]]. You are not worthy of your father's legacy.
863** Later in ''Warlords of Draenor'', Garrosh and Thrall have [[spoiler:their final]] confrontation, which is this trope in the form of back-and-forth banter.
864--->'''Thrall:''' You must answer for your crimes, Garrosh.\
865'''Garrosh:''' All I did... I did, FOR THE HORDE!\
866'''Thrall:''' You ''failed'' the Horde!\
867'''Garrosh:''' ''[as he proceeds to batter Thrall]'' '''You''' [[YouAreInCommandNow made me Warchief!]] You ''left'' me, to ''[[PunctuatedPounding pick up... your...]] '''[[PunctuatedPounding pieces!]]''''' [[NeverMyFault You]], ''failed,'' '''''meeee!''''' ''[{{beat}}]'' You never, ''[pant]'' had the strength, ''[pant]'' of a '''true''' warrior.\
868'''Thrall:''' I do not rely on strength alone, Garrosh. My power is all around you. ''[He unleashes his elemental powers and almost kills Garrosh]''\
869'''Garrosh:''' ''[[SayMyName Thraaaall!]]'' '''You''' made me what I am!\
870'''Thrall:''' No... You chose your own destiny.
871** Kayn Sunfury and Alturus the Sufferer exchange these a few times in the Demon Hunter questline. Kayn calls out Altruis for abandoning the fight against the Burning Legion and killing his comrades. Altruis in return declares that Illidan had lost his way and that at least he wasn't responsible for killing thousands of innocents.
872--->'''Altruis:''' [[WeUsedToBeFriends Just like old times, eh Kayn]]?\
873'''Kayn:''' Do not speak to me of old times, Altruis. You betrayed Illidan. You betrayed us all!\
874'''Altruis:''' After ten-thousand years of imprisonment, [[DrunkOnTheDarkSide Illidan succumbed to the fel energy within]]. When he was freed, he was not in his right mind. [[MyMasterRightOrWrong You followed Illidan blindly, like a dog]]. Even when he lost his way.\
875'''Kayn:''' He was fighting it, as we all do. He needed us to have faith in him, Altruis. he made the hard choices. He sacrificed EVERYTHING. What did you give?\
876'''Altruis:''' I fought as hard as the rest of you! But I did not murder thousands of innocents.
877** In the world quest "Rise of Skovald," while re-enacting God-King Skovald's [[SelfMadeOrphan murder of his mother]], Queen Bretta.
878--->'''Queen Bretta:''' Foolish boy. [[BadassBoast Do you think your fel tricks will save you from my wrath]]? You may have murdered your father. [[CainAndAbel You may have murdered your brothers]]. But that does NOT give you the right to rule our people! ''(as she dies)'' [[IHaveNoSon You... are no longer... my son...]]\
879'''Jarl Skovald:''' [[ShutUpKirk No, mother. I am your KING]]!
880** [[TheQuisling Grand Magistrix Elisande]], leader of the [[LesCollaborateurs Nightborne]], gives one to the [[DefectorFromDecadence Nightfallen]] [[LaResistance rebels]] and their [[EnemyMine night, high and blood elf allies]], before [[spoiler:[[TimeStandsStill stopping time and thwarting the invasion]].]]
881--->'''Elisande:''' Behold this motley throng in which the rebels put their faith. Kaldorei? You disgrace a glorious past, hiding in trees and cloaking yourselves in false piety. You have grown as savage as the trolls that skulk about your forests. Quel'dorei? You are peasants playing at nobility, [[CategoryTraitor all too willing to mingle with lesser races that dilute your bloodline]]. You are unworthy of the name high elves. Sin'dorei? Of all the elves, [[NotSoDifferentRemark I thought you might understand ]]the [[WellIntentionedExtremist choice I made to save my people]]. Instead, [[RagtagBunchOfMisfits you ally with misfits and monsters]]. Each of you has debased your proud lineage. Each of you has forgotten the ancient power that is our birthright. Let this failed rebellion be a lesson to any that would stand against the shal'dorei!
882** Illidan gives one to Kur'talos Ravencrest in "Ravencrest's Legacy," when Kur'talos calls Illidan out on sacrificing his own men to gain the power to defeat the Legion.
883--->'''Kur'talos:''' [[WhatTheHellHero WHAT HAVE YOU DONE! YOU'VE KILLED THEM ALL, ILLIDAN]]!\
884'''Illidan:''' What would you have me do, Kur'talos? Simper and nod to our new Legion overlords as they turn our world to ash?\
885'''Kur'talos:''' There is always a choice! We could have...\
886'''Illidan:''' We could have what? You are blind, Ravencrest! You are all blind! [[ThoseWereOnlyTheirScouts This was one invasion]]. [[NearVillainVictory They nearly killed everyone here and took Suramar]]. The best any of you can do is criticize my methods? My mages died saving our world. What have you given? What have you sacrificed? You're a damned fool, Ravencrest! No matter. I've learned all I can from you. We will never defeat the Legion so long as cowards hold the reins. Farewell... and good luck. Perhaps you may fare better begging them for your lives next time.
887** Dargrul, the final boss of Neltharion's Lair, is a drogbar king who wields the Hammer of Khaz'goroth, but [[BigBadWannabe while he's a significant threat to the tauren of Highmountain, he's unable to properly control the hammer, and so can't use its full power]]. As he's defeated and dying, the following exchange occurs.
888--->'''Dargrul:''' [[ThisCannotBe How is this possible!? I...I was chosen...]]\
889'''Spiritwalker Ebonhorn:''' The hammer never chose you, Dargrul. It seeks a wielder who possesses true strength, and you were found lacking.
890** In "Reckoning", Saurfang delivers one of these to Sylvanas as part of [[spoiler:his ThanatosGambit]]. Made even more badass by the fact that it's during his own HeroicSecondWind.
891--->'''Sylvanas:''' The High Overlord falls. I trusted you, and so did they. Death comes, old soldier... and all their hope dies with you.\
892'''Saurfang:''' You cannot kill hope. You tried in Teldrassil. You failed. Hope remains! You set us to kill each other at Lordaeron. You failed! Here we stand! [[PunctuatedForEmphasis You! Just! Keep! Failing!]] The Horde will endure! The Horde is strong!\
893'''Sylvanas:''' [[AccidentalPublicConfession The Horde is NOTHING! You are ALL NOTHING!]]\
894'''Saurfang:''' FOR AZEROTH!
895* In ''VideoGame/YakuzaLikeADragon'', Ichiban, after defeating his former young master Ryo Aoki (Masato Arakawa), has something to say along with several {{Armor Piercing Question}}s.
896-->'''Ichiban:''' It's over... Young master.\
897'''Ryo:''' Stop it. Now's my chance... I can finally... Put this nation on the right path. I can use my power...\
898'''Ichiban:''' And then what? What's that have to do with anything?\
899'''Ryo:''' And then I can... Make Japan... So much beautiful... I could... I could do that! That's... That's what the masses want. They want... Peace and prosperity. And I can give it to them.\
900'''Ichiban:''' But the reality is you just do whatever you want and make other people clean up after you.\
901'''Ryo:''' What..?\
902'''Ichiban:''' No matter who you claim to be now, if anyone disagrees with you even a little, you toss them aside like they mean nothing. I already know you're just gonna keep using the state of Japan as an excuse to kill the people around you, just like you did with your father! If I hadn't done anything, you would've killed Captain Sawashiro! Even after he served you for more than twenty years!\
903'''Ryo:''' There are two types of people in this world. Those who use, and those who get used. In other words, people who can make a difference, and people are are just tools in their hands.\
904'''Ichiban:''' [[ArmorPiercingQuestion Like your father?]]\
905'''Ryo:''' He was just one of many tools. Useful while it lasted. I didn't need him anymore.\
906'''Ichiban:''' So what you're saying is... That it's fine for certain people to be sacrificed once they've outgrown their use to you?\
907'''Ryo:''' Are you finally getting the picture?\
908'''Ichiban:''' Like HELL I AM! You and me, we're like light and shadow, born on the same day. You were light, Arakawa's heir and legitimate son who was always given everything I ever wanted! You had all of that from birth! [[GoodCannotComprehendEvil What the hell happened? What changed you? Why did you turn out like this?]]
