* ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'': Aku's forces are the ''only'' ones who hate Jack. Everyone else adores and respects him for the good he's done; [[SamuraiJack/TropesSeason5 Episode XCVII]] is one big ContinuityCavalcade devoted to how much everyone Jack has ever helped and inspired see him as a [[HopeBringer beacon of hope]] in a world dominated by Aku. Even the bounty hunters at Da Samurai's BadGuyBar who Jack defeated in the past ''respect'' Jack. To drive the point home, in the GrandFinale, [[spoiler:Aku captures Jack and announces his plan to publicly execute him to [[MakeAnExampleOfThem make an example of him]] and [[HopeCrusher crush everyone's hopes]]. The exact opposite happens; rather than be disheartened, ''everyone'' Jack has ever helped storms Aku's fortress en masse to rescue him]].

* In ''VideoGame/TheNewOrderLastDaysOfEurope'', the Free Aviators of northern Siberia are beloved by all Russians for their resistance against the Luftwaffe's bombing campaign. Though the Aviators are themselves socialists, they are respected by almost all the warlord states regardless of ideology — even the Ultranationalist fanatics of Omsk will help them out if one of them crash lands in the state's territory, although in this case, the respect is a one-way street.

* A {{Meta}} example appears in the ''[[VideoGame/ResidentEvil Resident Evil Remake]]'' on UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube. Beating all modes on all difficulties and unlocking everything earns you a congratulatory letter from the developers which essentially gushes over you, telling you how players like you make all the work they put into the games worthwhile.

->'''Ky:''' You've saved the world.
->'''Sol:''' What about it?
->'''Ky:''' You've been in the newspaper. Everyone looks up to you as a hero now.
->'''Sol:''' Shut it. Are you telling me to act like one now?
->'''Ky:''' ...Yes. By order of the new Conclave. It's just a formality, it'll be over quick.
->'''Sol:''' What a pain...

* ''VideoGame/{{Fallout}}'':

* In ''VideoGame/ArcanumOfSteamworksAndMagickObscura'' the PC gets a better reaction from other characters (including shopkeepers who give them discounts) if he or she helped the inhabitants of a given settlement. Additionally, characters sometimes mention specific deeds of the PC and act accordingly. Of course, evil deeds get attention and respect of shady characters (including party members who base their decision to join the PC on their karma meter).

->'''Ky:''' [[BluntYes ...Yes.]] By order of the new Conclave. It's just a formality, it'll be over quick.
->'''Sol:''' [[BeingGoodSucks What a pain...]]

* In the ''[[Franchise/KingdomHearts Kingdom Hearts]]''/''Series/GameOfThrones'' crossover fic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13425922/1/A-Song-of-Fire-Ice-and-Hearts A Song of Fire, Ice, and Hearts]]'', Roxas is adored by practically everyone who knows of him due to being a kind and gentle soul who is nonetheless [[OneManArmy powerful]] and [[TheDeterminator driven]] enough to defeat the Heartless, which he does without asking for anything in return. So far, it seems like [[RoyalBrat Joffrey]] is the only one who doesn't like him (but that's not saying much, he doesn't like anyone).

* ''VideoGame/InFamous'' will have people applaud you, ask you for assistance, take pictures of you, et cetera, if you're on the good side. Being bad gets you booed, have rocks thrown at you, and, if you're terrible enough, people attacking you constantly.

* In ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 3}}'', having the best karma rating means that you'll occasionally have people run up to you while you're in Megaton and give you supplies. And if you have very evil karma, slavers in Paradise Falls will also occasionally run up and give you supplies.
** Likewise, certain companions will only follow you based on Karma. Not the best example, since the best companion is Good and the two worst are Neutral. However, *anyone* can hire Charon or Dogmeat.
** Go to either extreme, and you'll have either ultra-evil mercenaries (if you are good) or vigilante "lawmen" (if you are evil) attack you as random encounters. Also, one perk gives you a substantial bonus to your Speech skill, provided that you maintain a Neutral karma level. To put this in perspective, you can earn enough Karma points to be "Good" or "Evil" before you leave the tutorial level.
** And in ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 2}}'', if you choose to play after the end of the game and go to New Reno/Vault City, everyone will congratulate you and treat you like a hero.
** ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'' handles it a little differently - the karma meter is the same from 3 but is nearly useless. What really matters is your reputation with each faction. Since you can't lose popularity or infamy, people could end up singing your praises for all the {{Fetch Quest}}ing while grudging you over blowing up their outpost last week.
*** An exception is the dialogue against [[spoiler: Legate Lanius, a Courier with sufficiently high karma gets the option to talk him into [[HonorBeforeReason calling off his bodyguards and attacking you alone.]]]]

* Dan of ''WesternAnimation/{{DanVs}}'' is shocked to find out that this is how everyone from his graduating high school class feels about him. All his attempts to wreak havoc on their lives when they were in school, such as blowing up the valedictorian's science project, filling the football team's uniforms with itching powder, and releasing "toxic fumes" into the building's air vents, were carried out because he felt as though he was being subjected to "cliquish, exclusionary behavior" by people who ridiculed him -- as it turns out, they all interpreted everything he did as "shenanigans" that made high school "bearable," recalling it all as being "awesome" and "hilarious". To his surprise and delight, they're all so ecstatic to see him that they cheer en masse, chant his name, and carry him on their shoulders. Chris, who went out of his way to participate in every school activity, is livid that nobody recognizes him or remembers his name and only recall him as being an "angry loner" and Dan's sidekick -- he uses the miniature volcano that Dan had made earlier to douse everyone in mud, but Dan receives all the praise and credit for what they call his "best prank ever".
