Do you ever feel bad at killing someone in games?

No, I don't. I remember when I used to play GTA Vice City I cheated with a code where every woman who was around my character follow him so, I used a tool and kill them all. I know it sounds horrible but when I kill them I got all the money they had.

Most of the time it feels great to kill our enemy in the games. But sometimes in the game we feel bad to kill someone that we love too much but we have to kill them to go ahead in the stages. I feel there should be other way out to escape this situation that I may keep away from killing my favorite character in the game.

No, never, I enjoy killing others. Especially, when I play with friends online mode or multiplayer mode. We use to play a lot of shooter video games like COD or CS:GO and the funniest part is when we kill each other in so many different ways and one way is bloodier than the other.

Its Fun and all sometimes I feel bad to kills someone in game because of they character keeps lagging so In order for it to be ok I will needed to kill them so they can restart but Yes cases like that I feel bad but if it was like someone killed my character in game I will want to take revenge then that a different story all together.

This stuff is total fantasy. Nonetheless, when it comes to robots (at least, the ones not designed for combat), I don't really like seeing people be mean to them, even though they're not real. I think, for some reason, it isn't the same as with something on a TV or computer screen - as we see with gaming characters.

I feel bad, especially if the game requires killing innocent people. That's what I don't like about these Gangster games so I don't play them. But if it is a terrorist or a villain that I killed, well, I feel good about myself because I cannot do that in real life, help other people by killing a bad one.

Actually, these are just games, and we are not hurting other people, we are helping people instead because we are paying for the games that are other people's job.

I really don't mind killing enemies on the game unless they're my friends and they do beg. That's the time I'll have to humble myself and let them free. And also, I hate killing dogs on game as well, but if they're that monster type or looked like a monster then I have no choice but to punish them for the sake of winning the game. :D

You know I hate to say it but I don't feel bad at all because I don't get into games like that. I just see them as imaginary figures that are in my way and I get points for them. Having said that there is no way that I could ever even think about killing someone in real live little alone do it. I think the people that kill and blame it on video games mix reality with fantasy.

I felt more remorse for the animals I killed in Red Dead Redemption than the people. Amidoinitright?

It's all about the game and I don't have any bad feeling about killing characters that I fight in the game. I mean this is just a game and no feelings should be attached, if I want to go far with the plot of the game. So, I don't and won't feel bad crushing the enemies on my way to becoming the best in the game.

We all kill a lot of people in game! For the plot, just for fun during a killing spree, any reason!
But there are those few times when you might feel a bit bad about killing your enemies. Maybe because the plot itself make you feel bad, or maybe because it's just a particular enemy you don't really want to kill.
For example I always have a hard time when I have to fight dogs! Poor doggos.

What about you?

It's a game for crying out loud and I definitely don't feel bad killing any opponent in the game. In fact the person is meant to be killed and I enjoyed doing the job 100%. I

If you feel bad then maybe playing these types of games aren't the ideal choice for you. Maybe you should out some other games like Animal Crossing or Pokemon lol. I don't feel bad at all really, because I know that it's just a game and the people in it aren't real. For some games, especially when you are playing against other people in multiplayer, I feel good killing other players since it means that you are much better than them and it means you're doing well in the game.

No I'm not, and it's looks fun. We all know that it's just a game. We should always think that game is different to real life. I think its a worst scenario when you feel guilt in gaming, there's a lot of possibilities that, you might kill someone in real life, if you can't distinguish the game to real life.

Nope, been killing my enemies for decades and some even several times, it's games, so it's fun killing, I mean why would you feel any remorse?

Oh yeah I definitely get moments where I feel bad about killing someone, whether they're an NPC or an actual person.

One example is like when I find a character with really nice gear in an RPG like Fallout, but I can't pickpocket the gear off of them. At that point I'm like sorry buddy, but I have to put you down for that sweet, sweet loot.

I felt particularly bad about killing someone after I invaded them in Dark Souls. For those who don't know, in Dark Souls you can basically invade someone's game without their consent, and you can then fight and kill them. I did it once and never again cause I just felt so bad. The guy was clearly inexperienced and started panicking when he saw my character. The dude tried so hard to avoid me he fell off a bridge. Who knows how badly I set back his progress, so I decided invasions just aren't for me.

Not really, a game is a game and it's just fantasy and doesn't mean anything in the real world.
