ShamingTheMob in VideoGames.
----
* Early in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrailsInTheSky Second Chapter'', a PowderKegCrowd consisting of the supporters of Ruan's two candidates for mayor (also the governor of the whole province) are at each other's throats. Enter [[TheGadfly Olivier]], coming down the nearby river on a small boat, chastising both factions with an impromptu song about lost love followed by BishieSparkles as he delivers the moral that, "Love is eternal." Cue the near-riot breaking up out of sheer ''awkwardness'' at Olivier's sudden bizarre appearance.
* An inversion pops up in ''VideoGame/MassEffect2'', during Tali's treason trial. If Shepard managed to keep Kal'Reegar and Veetor alive, they have the option of rallying the crowd in Tali's defense, which causes the mob to shame the judges into letting Tali off.
* Early on in ''VideoGame/NeverwinterNights2: Mask of the Betrayer'', [[spoiler:if you spared Okku and he joins you, you'll soon afterwards be confronted by a mob of spirit bears who want to punish Okku because his attempts to contain the Spirit Eater curse doomed his race to madness. With a good enough diplomacy skill, you can throw their charges right back at them by asking them that if they were in Okku's position, would they have simply let the curse run rampant, or would they try to stop it somehow. The mob then goes silent until the leader admits that they would indeed try to stop it.]]
* The Nameless One gets to do this at a certain point in ''VideoGame/PlanescapeTorment'', sort of. [[spoiler:He talks various rioters, looters and anarchists into abandoning their rather ill-timed plans and working together to reverse the city of Curst sliding into the plane of Carceri.]]
** [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential Or he could just give the town the little push it needs to go right over the edge.]]
* ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsX'': Even after they lose horribly to X-Cross and with their Mana gone, the [[Anime/CrossAnge Misurugi people]] continue to preach anti-Norma sentiment in front of their faces. Ange fires upon in response and tells them they must open their eyes and face reality no matter how painful it is.
* Happens in the first chapter of ''VideoGame/TheWitcher'', although it's debatable on whether the witch Geralt defended deserved it or not. It's also up in the air on whether Geralt shamed the mob, or scared them off by threatening them with violence.
* The finale of ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'''s Death Knight starting zone involves a titanic clash between the Death Knights of Acherus and the Crusaders of Light's Hope Chapel. Just as the Lich King's soldiers seem to gain the upperhand, Highlord Tirion Fordring intervenes to singlehandedly end the conflict and give the Death Knights- specifically Highlord Darion Mograine- a [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech stern reminder of the situation they are creating for themselves and others]].
* In ''VideoGame/Yakuza4'', Taiga Saejima humiliates the crowd watching him in a caged arena fights, after they begin chanting "Kill, Kill, Kill!" and demand he kill his defeated opponent, he answers:
-->'''Saejima''': Which of you fucks just said "What's one more?" Huh?! Was it you? Or you? You sit there chantin' "Kill, kill, kill!" But how many of you ever killed a man before?
