Hitman turns morality into a simple power fantasy: bad guys in suits with clear reasons why you need to whack them. One bullet and the world is fixed. But real evil is rarely so clear cut. This video explores why Hitman's fantasy of "easy evil" is so compelling and how games simplify morality.
Along the way, we’ll look at:
-Hitman’s unique mix of conspiracy theory and power fantasy
-Real-world examples of bureaucratic evil (like Kissinger)
-Why Nietzsche’s “Übermensch” logic lurks in so much game design
-The contrast between boring real evil vs. cinematic video game evil
