        That’s just one of many, and I’ll never forget the tears that flowed when, as but a child, I experienced that scene in FFVII, while screaming “NO,NO! USE A FUCKING PHOENIX DOWN YOU FUCKING ASSHOLES!”

          Mass Effect 3 Citadel DLC. One last fun ride with a bunch of friends before the final reckoning.

          For added gut punch: romance Thane.

            Yep. I play FFXIV and I'm on estrogen. I cry basically every major patch cycle.

              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 😄)

                I bought That Dragon Cancer ages ago because it seemed like an amazing and innovative idea for a game, and I've never had the guts to start it up.

                  As annoying as she was, Fi from Skyward Sword almost made me cry at the end of the game. Well, a couple of tears.

                    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.

                      Thank you for sharing your friend's story and honoring her memory.

                      This is very true. There are more than enough social and psychological barriers to getting the help you need in this situation - it's high time we get rid of at least the economic ones.

                      I was fortunate enough to get to know people on both sides of this struggle, though less severe than your friend. It takes effort to build empathy, remember the person underneath as you said, make space for them where the may be needed, and - without assuming full responsibility - being there for them where possible.

                            To The Moon, The Beginner's Guide, and Night in the Woods all made me cry like a lot. Probably have been a few others, but those were the big ones.

                              I just love the story. It's very well executed, and they do a great job of investing in the world and the characters. I'm honestly impressed by how long they've kept it going and it's still emotionally impactful.

                                  Skyward Sword… Zelda’s story was so moving.

                                    RDR2, when Arthur stopped to thank his (dying) horse (near the final mission). I got a lil choked up.

                                        Nier and Signalis are the first two that come to mind

                                        Honestly also Minecraft but that was mostly because I was playing during a bad time and the ost kicked in

                                          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.
