Objectively: it's a good strong motivation.

In context: it has been done to death in several media, up to the point where it actually loses dramatic impact because it becomes a trope.

And I think it's the latter most people complain about.

Yeah, this. Also, if it was actually done DIFFERENTLY once in a while, that would be a lot better. But it sometimes tends to feel like all male fictional characters have memorized the same manual entitled "So Your Entire Family Died and It's 5% Your Fault: What Next?"

That is really actually the best description I've ever seen. I wish I could name a TV Tropes article after that.

And now I am thinking that is the motivator for Coulsand Wardens in DAO.

It could always be "So Your Entire Family Die and It's 100% Your Fault (because you've killed them all...)" sort of thing.

Makes me glad that it seems that my character lost his entire family...and I just torture him periodically throughout my story to have him deal with it. XD
