    • Literally yesterday I started playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and just the prologue hit me.

    • The end of Karlach's story in Baldurs Gate 3

      Final Fantasy 14.

      • A few times during A Realm Reborn (they began early with ruthlessly killing characters)
      • About twice during Heavensward and Stormblood
      • Several times during Endwalker

        Yeah, I once walked into a Gamestop and saw how expensive new games have gotten...

        Joking aside:

        • Journey

        • To the Moon

        • Spiritfarer

        • Ori and the Will of the Wisps

        All good games, I can't recommend them enough.

        To the moon is like a kick right in the feels.
        Had me and my wife in bits at the ending.

          The final ending in Automata had me bawling. Genuine art, just beautiful and the music really brings it home.
          One of my best gaming experiences.

            That Dragon Cancer made me fucking weep.

            Clair Obscur, God of War 2018, What Remains of Edith Finch, The Last of Us, Bastion, Halo: Reach, Firewatch, Celeste, Telltale's The Walking Dead, FFXV, Baldur's Gate 3, Shadow of the Colossus, and more, all made me tear up.

            Can you tell I'm quite emotional about video games?

              God … Spiritfarer. What an amazing experience. I didn’t cry but quite a few times I had to put down the controller and just stare out the window. It’s not sad but it is so sad. It’s so wistful and god just loved that game.

                Man that's a lot of crying during video games. "Honey are you alright? I heard you crying again?"

                "This game fucking rocks!!!!"

                    The most recent and the most tears producing video game I played was The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood when you meet the trans woman and she transforms into her witch-self 😭

                      I cried over darksouls when I first played it at 12. These were tears of frustration of course. I also cried after finishing hollowknight. Not because it was sad but because it was over.

                          Ooh can you tell me a bit more about spiritfarer? I bought it excitedly a few months ago but stuff happened and I didn't play it for a long time. And now I find it kinda hard to get back to it. Also I seen to be stuck with some basic early missions

                              Yes! I have to try the DLC, I've been afraid of it not living up to the main game's whole thing

                              Oh, it lives up to it, all right. It's pretty mind bending in its own way.

                                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.

                                    Bring a blanket and a box of tissues. There is no "I'm too tough to cry" in this game, at least I don't know anyone who hasn't.

                                      It is an embodiment of "it's all downhill from here," aside from the fact that evil is vanquished.

                                        Man that's a lot of crying during video games. "Honey are you alright? I heard you crying again?"

                                        "This game fucking rocks!!!!"

                                        Movies don't hit me as hard, but the medium that is video games really sells the rough moments for me. Maybe it's something about being responsible for moving the narrative that makes me connect with video game characters.
