Journey’s ending hit me pretty hard: the score’s composer, Austin Wintory, did such a great job channeling emotions into the game narrative
TF2, when I get repeatedly owned by the same enemy. Especially if they’re a soldier with love heart cosmetics.
RDR2, when Arthur stopped to thank his (dying) horse (near the final mission). I got a lil choked up.
The Last Of Us Part II.
Revenge. Revenge never changes.
What’s done is done and it can never be undone.
It is such a tear jerker. So good
Skyward Sword… Zelda’s story was so moving.
Mass Effect 3 Citadel DLC. One last fun ride with a bunch of friends before the final reckoning.
For added gut punch: romance Thane.
Gris. For real, go play it if you havent. Worth the story.
Yes, many times, ff7 was the first
If a character dies and I liked them enough to feel sad then I usually just quit the game. Theres no point to play beyond that. Like cyberpunk 2077 I really liked Jackie and when he died I just quit half an hour later. I’ve picked up the game a few times since but its really not the same without my homie.
Arthur’s journey teared me up a bit in RDR2.
Edit: I JUST REMEMBERED JACKIE MA FROM SLEEPING DOGS
Malenia got me damn close to.
How comes no one mentioned plague tale (both games) ? I don’t know how good the English voice acting is, but in French it was really poignant.
Yeah ff10 when I was like 13 lol
Destiny when Cayde 6 died. There was a goodbye message Cayde left for his son saying something like “I’m coming home”. Well it was right around when my father passed and I was a fucking wreck.
As someone who has had the chance to play through Xenoblade Chronicles 1 through 3, several times in 3 specifically I was very emotional.
3 is a game that’s emotional on its own, and throughout its story there are several times where it hits like a truck.
But when you know about all three games, some things just hit a little harder, especially during that DLC.
There’s definitely a reason I have Mio and Noah Amiibo on my desk right now.
Honestly, XC3 is probably the best RPG of that generation (of course that’s on opinion. But it’s a correct one 😄)
