(SPOILER) Saddest Moments in Video Games

[MQJinx]

What are some sad moments in video games you've seen?

For me:

Spoiler: Sonic Adventure

Gamma's death

Spoiler: Super Paper Mario

The ending

Spoiler: Xenoblade

Fiora's death

Spoiler: Final Fantasy VI

Celes's suicide attempt

Spoiler: Mega Man Zero 4

Zero's sacrifice

Spoiler: Metal Gear Solid 4

The whole game

Spoiler: Mother 3

The whole game

Spoiler: Undertale

Asriel's breaking down

 

[Yoshiman222]

Spoiler: Apparently...?

Emmeryn's "death" in Awakening and the entire chapter afterwards trying to put the feels on you.

 

[NintendoFan]

Spoiler: Spoilers ahead

Mother 3:

Spoiler

Masked Man is actually Claus, and when you beat him he kills himself. This whole game is depressing in general, but I'd say that was one of it's breaking points.

Zero Escape: 999:

Spoiler

The safe ending. I mean, Snake kinda freaks out when he realizes Clover is dead, so... Just gonna leave it at that. Also the sub ending.

Chrono Trigger:

Spoiler

Well, the main character dies. Do I really need to explain beyond that?

 

[Zympherior]

Spoiler: Bravely Default

Olivia's death. The way Agnès reacts and her change of personality (at least for a time) says it all. For some reason, Til's death didn't affect me that much...

 

[Luigidenne3DSGCN]

Spoiler: Final Fantasy VII

Aerith's Death: Aerith/Aeris left us way too soon; the penultimate victim of generations of Cetra genocide; that whole scene; the music

Spoiler: LEGO Adaptations (DOUBLE WARNING: LotR, Harry Potter, and Star Wars Spoilers)

Deaths of Boromir, Cedric Diggory, Dumbeldore, Female Freeze minions, Padmé, Darth Vader, and that poor little starfish from Marvel Superheroes

Spoiler: Poémon Black 2/White 2

Purrloin's brutal betrayal

Spoiler: Pokémon X/Y

Realization of AZ's Floette's fate and the psychological impact on both of them

Spoiler: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Stepping into Hyrule for the first time after Ganondorf's wrath

Spoiler: The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker

Seeing your ill grandmother, losing Zelda/Tetra

Spoiler: Super Mario Galaxy

Rosalina's Storybook, the sacrifice of the Lumas, hearing Luigi's cries for help

Spoiler: Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door/Super Paper Mario

Fighting Mario's loved ones-on multiple occasions in the latter; I can't even bring myself to get to that point in the game.

The beginning of The Last of Us and the ending to Brothers stick out for me.

 

[Snowy620]

The beginning of The Last of Us and the ending to Brothers stick out for me.

yeah the beginning of TLoU was pretty sad.

 

[ttwashere]

I've played through that scene like 5 times now, and have cried every single time.

 

[Ecks Dee]

Me playing against someone in Smash.

 

[ttwashere]

Usually helps to title the spoiler something insightful so people actually know what it is

Spoiler: Apparently...?

Emmeryn's "death" in Awakening and the entire chapter afterwards trying to put the feels on you.

It's Fire Emblem Awakening if someone was wondering. Really not that hard to do.

 

[ImpaDude]

Honestly the only two times I cried while playing a video game were:

Spoiler

Lee's Death from TWD

or

Spoiler

Tippi and Count Bleck's sacrifice in Super Paper Mario... Honestly that game was depressing. The fact that Mario literally died and went to hell, Luvbi sacrificing herself, the world ending, all the other Sacrifices. The first world was like a fun little world and the game gradually got more and more dark.

Reason why it's the best PM Game
