* Henry Stillman's situation in [[VideoGame/{{Resistance}} Resistance 2]]. As if the utterly empty towns and cities that you romp through weren't unnerving and depressing enough, you soon have to contend with Stillman's radio broadcasts. The first broadcast seems innocuous enough, a professional radio man reporting [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=564fGPoZR5I&feature=PlayList&p=FC6752FF8635DE2A&index=0 on the Chimeran invasion]]. A day later, Henry's radio persona has already fallen away and he is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zF9cDUubIB4&feature=PlayList&p=FC6752FF8635DE2A&index=1 audibly shaken]] by the slaughter and the loss of his wife. The worst part comes when he sees a boy and his father on the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0IMcFoxPyI&feature=PlayList&p=FC6752FF8635DE2A&index=3 street]]. He's elated and joyful, his spirits clearly rising over the first people he's seen in days. Unfortunately, this hope is immediately stolen away from him when the two of them are killed despite his efforts to warn them. Later, after his brief sojourn [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMu2x2BAqIg&feature=PlayList&p=FC6752FF8635DE2A&index=5 outside]] you can hear just how much he's come apart, the once professional radio broadcaster reduced to a nervous wreck relating his ApocalypticLog over the wireless, uncertain if anybody is listening and contemplating the fact that he could be the last human left. His [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NudONjweFlM&feature=PlayList&p=FC6752FF8635DE2A&index=6 final broadcast]] ends with his declaration of defeat and his decision to commit suicide by throwing himself to the grims outside his building. As if humanity losing the war wasn't bad enough, listening to the spiritual destruction of a man caught in the middle of it is pretty soul crushing, and makes an already bleak situation feel even more hopeless.
