* Nishiki in ''VideoGame/Yakuza1'', as his [[BloodBrothers blood brother]] and childhood friend, Kiryu, who's just willingly done a decade in prison for a crime [[TakingTheHeat Nishiki actually committed]], gets paroled and discovers that Nishiki's gone pretty evil in the interim and they're now enemies. To his credit, Nishiki does say he still genuinely wants to be friends with Kiryu like they used to be, but Kiryu can't go along with the things Nishiki is involved in. Additionally, Nishiki turns on his and Kiryu's foster father, Kazama, who was the one who got him promoted to the head of his own {{yakuza}} family in the first place and starts muscling in on Kazama's territory.

* Falco Lombardi from the ''VideoGame/StarFox'' series is such a cocky hotshot that he not only complains when you KillSteal from him, he makes snide remarks when you shoot enemies that are ''attacking him.''
--> [[SarcasmMode "Gee, I've been saved by Fox. How swell."]]

* ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead'':

** Kenny after the second episode develops this and [[spoiler: gets worse in Episodes 3 and 4. Finally stops being this in Episode 5 if Ben is alive to tell him off for his selfishness.]]
*** [[spoiler: He'll be upset with Clementine on Sarita's death no matter what you tried to save her in Season 2.]]
** Lilly [[spoiler: you choose to keep her after she kills Carley/Doug, she tricks you and flees by herself. Happens again in Season 4 if players tell AJ to stand down from killing Lilly, which leads to her killing James.]]
** Gabe acts like this towards his uncle Javi whenever [[spoiler: you shot Conrad or let him live after finding out about Clementine as a former member of the Frontier. If you shoot him, Gabe will rat out on Javi, which leads to Tripp and Eleanor distrusting Javi. If you don't, he calls out his uncle for being a coward.]]

* [[spoiler:Kohaku]] from ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}'' is a rare somewhat-justified example of this trope. [[spoiler:As an eight-year-old child, she was repeatedly and violently raped by Makihisa Tohno so that Makihisa could take advantage of Kohaku's "Synchronizer" ability to help keep him sane. When Makihisa's daughter Akiha discovered what was going on, she put a stop to it ''immediately'' and made Kohaku her personal maid... but Kohaku still sets a plan in motion to destroy the Tohno family, wiping out Akiha as well and sparing only the (adopted) Shiki. But this isn't deliberate ingratitude on Kohaku's part; in order to mentally survive repeated rapes, Kohaku killed off her emotions and became a doll, so she tried to destroy the Tohno family just to give herself a purpose in life, not out of a spiteful desire to destroy her rescuer Akiha. In fact, if Akiha dies in one of Hisui's routes, even when this was a part of Kohaku's own plan she will later mourn Akiha in her own way, bringing tea to Akiha's room despite how she's not there anymore to drink it.]]

* In Season 1 of ''VideoGame/BatmanTheTelltaleSeries'', it becomes clear that the Children of Arkham’s whole deal is destroying Bruce Wayne’s life [[SinsOfOurFathers because of what Thomas Wayne did]] to them or their parents. Bruce can potentially save one of them from ComicBook/TwoFace, only for the {{mook}} to attack him anyway [[TooDumbToLive and get magdumped by the GCPD]].

** In ''VideoGame/GodOfWarPS4'', Freya does ''not'' take your boss fight with Baldur well. It's somewhat understandable, as he ''is'' her son, but Kratos and Atreus are fighting to ''save her life'' after Baldur (who had been driven to violent insanity by the [[SenseLossSadness side-effects]] of her own invulnerability enchantment), ''and'' Kratos had tried to spare Baldur, only for him to go back to trying to kill Freya, with the implicit threat of going after Kratos and Atreus again after she's dead- so even if Baldur ''had'' been allowed to kill her, he'd just attack Kratos again and die anyway.
