      Like "make sure, Bob, if I'm gunned down by someone you pause and shout my name in anguish so as to ensure that they feel bad for killing me." "Ok Harry."

      That's exactly how it is. I was writing joke parody dialogues a couple days ago about this, based on reviews, and turns out I nailed it, it's exactly like that

      Like that's not how most stories handle this sort of thing for a *reason*, it's just sort of exploiting an emotional blind spot that exists in gamers.

      I dunno, this was an actual repeated thing in that webcomic Goblins, someone would get in an attack on someone else and you'd be rooting for them and then you'd see the victim's friend screaming their name with tears in their eyes

      Honestly this is somewhat less successful to me as a way to suddenly generate sympathy for a mook (you have to have friends to be sympathetic?) My favorite trope here is to just switch to the mook's POV and clearly show you their last emotion in life is desperation and terror

      Replying to @arthur_affect @loudpenitent and

      You have to be REAL to be sympathetic, though. A lot of this isn't really about the fact that people are callous toward death, but rather, medium and genre conventions that require a lot of cannon fodder and not much time.

      When people get squeamish, they're often replaced by robots, or monsters, or various undead, or whatever else.

      I think it's worthwhile to both address this sometimes, and then, not address it sometimes.

      Yeah games in particular doing this was a big shocking subversion at one point and now it's just another trope

          I am particularly sick of robots/androids/AI being race-substitute analogy in every fucking sci-fi series.
