8 Video Game Villains Destroyed By Their Own Creations
1. Harlan Wade Doesn't Listen To His Own Advice - F.E.A.R
Oh Harlan, you really did bring this on yourself, didn't you? You literally give a speech to the player over the course of the almighty F.E.A.R original about how man is often killed by his own creations.
"It is the way of men to make monsters... and it is the nature of monsters to destroy their makers."
These are your words, and yet you decided to go ahead and release your unstable telepathic daughter, who lest we not forget, you experimented on in order to breed a perfect psychic commander for armed wars. From a coma you forced her into to wait until she became able to carry a child, then artificially inseminated her so that she'd breed even more psychics.
How the hell did you think that was going to end? Who had bets on having your entire form liquified?
Well, jackpot for you sir! I get that the game tries to play it off as a small redemptive arc; that he realizes what he put her through, but Harlan, you absolute plum duff, you HAD MULTIPLE YEARS TO STOP THIS FROM EVER HAPPENING.
At this point, it's like trying to hold the door open for the Devil as an act of kindness to get into Heaven.
