Games where you can kill literally anybody- What do you think?

Assassins Creed (1 for sure)

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace for PS1.

You could quite literally kill ANYTHING. Random guards on the street, random pedestrians, EVEN KIDS. "hey let me see your blaster mister!" Then you fire a shot into him and he's screams and yells "OWWW THAT HURTS!" and just falls over dead. Hell you could even kill every vital NPC and fail your mission, including Anakin Skywalker.

I'm surprised the game never made news coverage for being able to mass murder children. Other games seem to get controversy for stuff like that but Star Wars apparently gets a free pass.

Magicka :D

Wasn't that true for the old Fallouts too? Haven't played them in a long time

Fallout 1 and 2

Oh, one more, all X-Universe games. Though with X Rebirth you can't kill (or shoot) anyone inside a station. But as long as you're in your ship, you can kill every other ship you encounter (or take a shot at it at least - survival is an other thing at times :D)

Can't believe nobody mentioned Fallout New Vegas. I killed EVERYONE in that little town you spawn in, and a bunch of other vital characters for the story. Pretty much I made my own story line of a murderer by killing anything I came across. Besides children that is. But I love doing it.

In fallout 3 you can't kill SOME people, but dark souls you can literally kill anybody, even the main NPCs.

life

Dark Souls :3

Deus Ex: Human Revolution ?
At least it lets you walk into a crowded disco and set off the Typhoon augment for panic and unintended hilarity, as well as stab cops for ammo and random passerbys for no real benefit.

well, aside from the usual ones already mentioned ... Kerbal Space Program is another and I believe killing people is a requirement in any Postal game lol

Nice thread.

Morrowind. Save for the tutorial people and one cut-scene NPC, you can literally kill everyone.

what about postal 2?

Half Life screenshots: You sir, need a Morality core.

I used to kill guards in the Black Mesa mod but just to get ammo, not for fun.

Arcanum

Not to be an ass, but there is quite a few people you cannot kill in Fallout 3, not counting children.

My most favourite series - Deus Ex.

It's fun a and not that easy trying to kill Gunther and Anna. And killing homeless people. And your boss. And everybody. Ahhh, I have such fond memories of these games.

Fallout 3? Are you fucking kidding me? You could kill everybody in the classics (even kids) and in New Vegas but in 3 half the npcs in the game were immortal.

I dislike left 4 dead 2, but you can kill your friends and the zombies, I prefer to kill my friends because it makes them mad and it's funny.

DEFCON?

Dark Souls and Fallout NV :D

There are plenty of games with random, unimportant innocent bystanders whom you may attack (Deus Exs, Postals), or games that are just about killing random people in the first place (Most First Person Shooters); too many to list really. Here is the what I consider the essence of this topic.

Games in which friendly, plot characters may be killed at your whim:

• Dark Souls (and Demon Souls)
• Morrowind (and other TES games, though later games prevent the death of some characters)
• Fallout 1 and 2 (and 3 / New Vegas, but you're not allowed to kill children)
