    I don’t think I’ve ever cried because of a game in the sense that the game itself made me cry, but the memories attached to some have.

      Mmm, great memories of Blue Rescue team.

      I’ve been meaning to play the others, but DS emulation is kind of subpar by design.

    I dont know why, but i cried in some wierd situations. Like at the endboss fight of ori 2 and the endboss of the pacifist ending of undertale. And not after the fight, during! I think it’s some kind of being overstimulated and way to much things are happening, but in a nice way with the exact amount of difficulty.

    FF7. Loved Aerith’s character, lots of time learning the background, near endless fights to save her, then cutscene. 45 hours went to 70 pretty fast after that. I wanted revenge on that fucker, and I had Holy.

    I’m late but here’s an oddball.

    Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time

    If you’ve never played the mystery dungeon games, you never really see your character actually speak to anyone. You have internal thoughts you can read but when you talk to others you just kinda wiggle around.

    After you beat the final boss, you finally see your character speak with your partner and god damn it hit hard when I was a lad.

    Many times in many games.

    Probably the most in Mass Effect series, so many emotional moments. ME2: Overlord’s end hits the hardest.

    I’ve only seen it in the s thread once, and just up voting it didn’t seemed enough. I’ve played the majority of games people are mentioning here, some of them are quite sad and hit you like a punch in the stomach. Another one I also didn’t cried but felt very strongly about it and I don’t think I’ve seen it mentioned here was Life is Strange, there’s one particular scene that got me very hard.

    All of this is to say, I don’t usually cry on movies, books or games, it’s not a “boys don’t cry” kind of thing, I don’t have a problem with crying or with getting in touch with my feelings, I just don’t cry very often or for any reason. However, I don’t know if it was the story on its own or the blinking mechanic but Before your eyes had me crying, and wasn’t just a couple tears either, I only held myself together because I couldn’t leave the game until it finished. That game was an experience, I recommend going in blind and using the camera.

    Braid’s ending.

    Tim (the player) is likely the villain. His quest was never about saving the princess but about his own selfish desire to reclaim something/someone that no longer wants him. The game masterfully subverts expectations, making players reflect on perspective, responsibility, and consequences.

    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 cried when I wasn’t able to play League of Legends anymore because of Vanguard.

    Other than that, I think I cried a little with Life is Strange.
