Games that legitimately made you cry

[Thomas83Lin]

Just one, FF7. I remember endlessly following all the rumors on how to save or bring her back.

 

[The Catboy]

I haven't finished Gates to Infinity. And I bought it on launch day. :\ I guess I was expecting a leap in story like how Explorers had such an amazing leap over Rescue Team in terms of emotional power. But the story just felt dumbed down. I don't know, I recently fell into a pretty cool plot twist and maybe it gets better from here, who knows, but I doubt any game will make me as sad as To the Moon and Explorers of Sky.

Gates dumped down a lot of things, but the story is where they improved and picks up later in the game.

 

[Lord Coolman]

Everytime the bad guy is beaten. Why can't the villain have a good ending?

 

[Flame]

None because I'm an adult.

my dad says that if i cant say nothing nice, than i shouldn’t say anything at all.



the only game i cried was FIFA games... why? cause I payed money for this games.

I cry every tiem.

 

[Arras]

Um, let's see...
Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Thingo, To The Moon, Layton Unwound Future, Ghost Trick, Steins;Gate, Ever17, and that's pretty much it afaik.

My dad said if you don't have anything nice to say, say it all.

Your dad is dumb.

That certainly explains a lot.

 

[Shinitai]

You guys should play Gone Home if you like crying. But watch out, that shit is powerful.

You should finish the game. I found the story to be worthy enough to be in a Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game (no, that's not sarcasm). The sad thing is...

Spoiler

once you beat the story, the story ends. There is nothing more to the game other than upgrading your village and recruiting the poor list of recruitable Pokémon. You don't get a follow-up story after you become the hero, you don't get special episodes... nothing.

By the way, am I the only one who thought that To the Moon's ending was incredibly tragic?

Spoiler

You have a guy who saw his brother dying and got scarred for life. He couldn't enjoy anything and he married a woman who loved the child he was before the trauma. He never understood her, he saw her dying, he ended up alone because he was somehow obsessed. Then these guys come up, and... fake the reality for him. We can talk as much as we want about how this is good or bad, if this was applicable IRL, but let's focus on the fact that they let him fulfill his wish for ONE MINUTE and then he dies.
How about your mom is a dickhead who should've paid more attention to your brother, your wife is a self-righteous bitch who could've gone through therapy like the friend's dude did, and I WANT A GODDAMN SEQUEL BECAUSE I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THOSE PAINKILLERS MEANT GOD DAMNIT.

Katawa Shoujo. That's all I'm saying.

My god, that game was tragic. But at the same time,

Spoiler

it was a happy ending. I mean they came and fulfilled his dream, right? After all those hardships of his life, his one dream was fulfilled, to go To the Moon.

Are you serious?

Sure, the story is pretty decent (despite it being little more than a walking simulator). But are there two endings and did I accidentally get the good ending or something? Because...

Spoiler

...once you reach the attic, it turns out that your sister and that girl she's in love with ran away together just before you were scheduled to arrive.

I guess you could cry for relief on that turn of events - I have to say I don't think I was ever happier for people whom I haven't even seen a picture from - but crying would be stretching things.

Since it was such a popular vote on this thread I actually bought To the Moon last night and played it for 6 hours straight until I beat it

I feel dead inside

Don't. Don't ever play this game

 

[EMP Knightmare]
