Not to be confused with an epic gamer moment.
It is a moment of realisation of how bad of a person you are after killing literally billions of NPCs and/or committing other unbelievable atrocities in videogames.
This expression is actually referencing a famous quote of J.Robert Oppenheimer, one of the father's of US nuclear program. While describing his feelings from witnessing the first explosion of an atomic bomb, he said:
"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, “Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.” I suppose we all thought that one way or another".
gosh this be giving me goosebumps every f-ing time.

I've stopped playing Plague Inc. after realising that I've actually killed 7 billions of people like 7 times. That was trully an oppenheimer moment.
