Enjoying the Killing – Metal Gear Solid
Metal Gear Solid has perhaps the least jarring but most understated form of criticizing the player’s wanton slaughter of enemies. Before the epic CQC fight between Solid Snake and Liquid Snake, the latter will mock the former’s dedication to following orders.

Questioning why Snake – and the player – continues to persist, Liquid answers by stating, “You enjoy all the killing, that’s why!” To be fair, killing Liquid was quite satisfying so there is that.
