10 Horror Video Game Fates Worse Than Death

10. Amnesia Rebirth - Becoming A Human Energy Drink

Whilst these particular humans look dead and more like rotted corpses than sentient beings, the ghouls in Amnesia Rebirth are very much alive and definitely out for blood.

After being lured by The Empress into her dimension to drink her supposedly healing water, unfortunate people begin their transformation into ‘Harvesters’: ghouls unwillingly acting on behalf of The Empress to obtain vitae, a substance which she needs significant quantities of to sustain herself.

They are rotted, zombie-like figures who hunt and torture regular humans in order to obtain the vitae. Protagonist Tasi sees pretty much all her mates either be killed by or become these monsters, and they are consistently her main enemy throughout most of the story.

This fate sucks because you have to suffer through a confusing and seemingly unstoppable transformation and then spend the rest of your existence as a sub-human predator, serving the very villain who is to blame for making you this way in the first place.

Devoid of humanity, you could kill friends or family and remorselessly torture them. Even before you’ve been fully transformed, the fear and the ongoing process of change can cause you to do things you never thought you would.

Beginning your loss of humanity long before you’re far gone enough to not feel bad about it.
