** Nina at best is a DarkActionGirl and at worst a cold blooded sociopath, but she did appear to [[DaddysGirl genuinely love her father Richard]], who shaped her into a ProfessionalKiller and his death shook her hard enough to make her the EmotionlessGirl from then on. In ''Tekken 2'' it was hinted Nina had secret a soft spot for her sister Anna, with her smiling at meeting Anna at their father's grave but that was abandoned after Nina TookALevelInJerkass into full blown abusive older sister to Anna in later games. Then there's her son Steve, who Nina seemingly rejects as her child in ''Tekken 7'' when he confronts her about it since Steve was born without her knowedge or consent, but her actions show she is still unwillingly to hurt or kill Steve (as explictly seen in ''Tekken 4''), which given her usual murderous proclivities, speaks volumes.

** Heihachi is one of the most despicable and petulant antagonists in the series, thanks to a toxic combination of ArrogantKungFuGuy and MightMakesRight, which he passed onto Kazuya. While he's nothing but an abusive old asswipe to his sons Kazuya, Lee etc and a GruesomeGrandparent to Jin and even imprisoned and starved his gentle father Jinpachi for no good reason at all, there are at least three exceptions to his dickery. Firstly there's Kazumi his wife, whom he did genuinely love, with Heihachi shedding tears when he was forced to kill her in self-defence after she revealed her [[OneWingedAngel true devil colors]]. Secondly there's Xiaoyu, who Heihachi treats like a favourite granddaughter after she impressed him with her skill in ''Tekken 3'', to the extent that he indulges Xiaoyu's wants and spoils her. In stark contrast to how he treats his actual children (it's likely she reminds him of Kazumi). Thirdly there's Kuma, his pet bear who also trained raised since he was a cub with Kuma even being Heihachi's offical partner in ''VideoGame/StreetFighterXTekken''.

* Cindy from ''VideoGame/{{Kindergarten}}'' is an AlphaBitch who goes through boyfriends like tissues and ''relentlessly'' bullies Lily due to her brother Billy dumping Cindy. However, she seems to genuinely care for her dog Biscuit, to the point where [[spoiler:she'll go into a homocidal rage if she finds out that he's dead]].

** Lady Alcina Dimitrescu from ''VideoGame/ResidentEvilVillage'' might be a insane mutant vampire lady, but she does genuinely love her adoptive three daughters Daniela, Bela and Cassandra as if they really are her own. [[spoiler: After Ethan kills them, Dimitrescu assures Ethan [[MamaBear in cold fury]] she will “devour” him whole, flesh and bone until there’s nothing left.]]

*** Darth Malgus is shown in supplementary materials to have once had a wife named Eleena Daru, whom he loved with all his heart and vice versa. When Eleena was held hostage, Magus immediately surrendered to save her life. [[spoiler:This incident leads to him forcing himself to remorsefully kill her, as the Sith code holds that all personal attachments must be severed and his enemies would use her against him.]]

** Mathieu Bellamont in ''[[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion Oblivion]]'' is a Dark Brotherhood assassin that his loved ones, as he's motivated to avenge his mother and also in love with a fellow assassin named Maria. He plans on abandoning the order and start a real family with her, but unfortunately, she refuses, leading to him snapping and brutally killing her. It's also implied that he might be in love with [[DarkChick Antoiniette Marie]], since she received an anonymous letter warning her to leave the Sanctuary before it can be purged and he's the only one who knows what will happen.

* ''VideoGame/MariAndTheBlackTower'':
** Although Morgoth went his separate ways from Keller after turning on humanity, [[spoiler:Morgoth dies while thinking of Keller, showing that even in his corrupted state, he thought of Keller as a friend]].
** Although Vera exiled Mari from the nymph village, she still misses the latter. Unfortunately, [[spoiler:Vera is corrupted by miasma and tries to convince Mari to live with her and the other nymphs in the Black Tower forever. She kills Mari in the endgame, but regrets it and has a VillainousBreakdown during her boss fight]].

** Although Morgoth went his separate ways from Keller after getting the idea to destroy humanity, [[spoiler:Morgoth dies while thinking of Keller, showing that even in his corrupted state, he thought of Keller as a friend]].

* ''VideoGame/ColdWinter'' has it's main villain, John Grey who leads the Greywings society, who's already a WellIntentionedExtremist when his goals are revealed, but besides that Grey also loves his last relative, his young granddaughter, as his wife, son, and daughter-in-law all passed before him.

* ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysSisterLocation'' reveals that Mr. Afton [[spoiler:a.k.a the murderer]] has a daughter, whom he honestly cares for (given how he refused to let her see Circus Baby, [[spoiler:knowing that he'd designed the animatronic as a secret [[HomicideMachines child abduction/murder machine]] that would surely kill her]]). [[spoiler:Sadly, she decided to visit Baby when he wasn't looking...]] Seems to be subverted in the game's custom night with [[spoiler:his son, Michael Afton, though. From the way Michael tells it, his father sent him to deal with the homicidal ghosts possessing the animatronics... and it didn't go well for Mike]].
** This might be because Michael Afton [[Videogame/FiveNightsAtFreddys4 was indirectly responsible for the death of his younger brother, and William's youngest child.]]

** It's made clear that the Sentients Hunhow and Erra care deeply for their daugther/sister Natah [[spoiler:AKA the Lotus]]. A big part of the reason why they hate the Tenno is that [[spoiler:they believe that the Orokin brainwashed Natah into betraying them after she took the identity of the Lotus to try and manipulate the Tenno, only to apparently side with them and turn on her family. Only in ''The New War'' do they realize that Lotus ''chose'' to side with the Tenno because she viewed them as the children she could never have[[note]]traveling through the Orokin Void to the Origin System from Tau sterilizes sentients, meaning Natah will never bare children of her own[[/note]], which ultimately leads them to make peace with the Tenno]].

** In ''[[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsOnline Online]]'', Vaermina, the [[OurGodsAreDifferent Daedric Prince]] of [[YourWorstNightmare Nightmares]], reveals that she is in love with her champion. Her reaction to his death (at your hands) backs this up, as she [[CuteAndPsycho gleefully describes]] how she is going to spend the next century or so [[MindRape Mind Raping]] you for killing him.
