Caught myself thinking about the Bioshock series, two of the games deal with the results of the application of pure human rationality either for pure pursit of material achievements (in the first), and the absolute denial of individuality for a purposed "greater good", all while completely denying the spiritual aspect of the human condition. Regarding the first game, there's a city, deep undersea (submarine D.U.M.B. ? D.S.M.B. ? ) where inhabitants were handpicked and pursued purely selfish and mostly monetary interests. Only the richest moguls and feistiest artists (elites) were allowed to make money there, along with a population of near-enslaved workers.

Other possibility are the Resident Evil Games, where world's biggest pharmaceutical corporations are always behind terrorist attacks and experiments on the population mostly involving viruses, which tend to go out of control and lead to the scenarios the games are placed in (Wuhan seemed a lot like a post apocalypse in the first couple months, propaganda or not.) There's even one game where people are infected with a virus that only mutates you after reacting with enough fear and stress brain chems.

Might be just BS and faulty logic, so I wanted to know you guy's opinions.
