A lot actually, I'm quite sensitive to emotional things. I've been playing Honkai Impact 3rd and it's made me tear up multiple times. I don't remember all of the games but some of the other games I remember are:
All of the Kingdom Hearts except "3D" and 3 because I haven't played them yet.
Metal Gear solid 1, 2, 3 and Peace Walker
Some of the Final Fantasy games
Castlevania Order of Ecclesia
I can't believe no one is mentioning Chrono Triger few days after it was named as one of best video games. Geez I cried a lot with 2 finals.
The Last Of Us Part II.
Revenge. Revenge never changes.
What's done is done and it can never be undone.
It is such a tear jerker. So good
Ending of the Transistor, I did not seet that coming. I just sat there in stunned silence for a few minutes.
TF2, when I get repeatedly owned by the same enemy. Especially if they're a soldier with love heart cosmetics.
MGS4…
Everyone Dies. You can't stop it. You can't run from it. Let me tell you something... Don't... Don't waste the life you have left fighting.
There was this challenge in VVVVVV that left me with tears of rage in my fro
Lol fuck that game. Also, I love that game.
I've got a weird one. Saints Row 4, near the end. Such a strange, unexpectedly emotional experience.
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.
Yes. Every dark souls game
Sekiro almost but not because of the story
Borderlands 2 TTAODK expansion
The ending
IYKYK
I've teared up for some. In Sound Mind made me think of my cat who was recently deceased and was more special to me than any of the other pets I had. And then there was the ending for Outer Wilds, and the... fuckin' everything in Ori and the Blind Forest.
RDR2, when Arthur stopped to thank his (dying) horse (near the final mission). I got a lil choked up.
Played through Before Your Eyes and it absolutely broke me. I'd 1000% recommend using a camera and going in blind. Very emotional experience.
In my second play-through of CP77, I played as a female V just so I could romance Judy. It was great. Even went so far as to decorate V's apartments with pictures of the two of them together. So when the end came, I was not emotionally prepared for ...
spoiler
... the revelation that Judy had decided to leave NC and V.
While I can't say I cried, it was probably the closest I've come to crying because of a video game.
btw your spoiler isn't showing right for me, I can see the spoiled text on the outside. I think you might have the inside text and outside text flipped?
Yes, once after accidentally wiping my Donkey Kong 64 save when I was like 5 and then during Horizon Zero Dawn, I think during RDR2, Life is strange and probably some others. Btw I also made plenty of people cry during the N64 split screen days so that part evens out nicely.
Destiny 2 - RIP CAYDE 6
He was such a likable character by the community that Bungie actually brought him back... somehow, as some sort of reincarnated-ghost-person-thing
The end of God of War (2018).
Yes, multiple times
Most recently it was "In stars and time"
Halo CE ending with Johnson and the Elite. Got me as a child, and also as an adult. Halo 3 nearly got me too.
Wuthering waves had me tear up a few times actually. They have some really good stories around their characters, tie that in with some of the best music I've heard in a game and it just plays with your emotions.
I'm sure anyone who has played it knows the encore story lol
I'm almost 40 years old and have been playing games my entire life, like way too much, and I can't believe I'd actually be saying wuthering waves, a freaking predatory gacha game, is probably in my top 5 best games I've ever played when considering overall quality along with how fun it is. I only found it like 2-3 months ago and I've already put over 200 hours in it... There's a joke that Kuro games is a music/anime company that attaches a game to their art.
Yeah for sure. I can be over-stimulated by the story pretty easy. The first couple endings I pulled in Cyperpunk were very dark and tragic. Plagues Tale: Requiem after playing both games is a killer. I had some bad decisions in the final run in Veilguard that got my favorite character killed in a tragic way then had to answer for it later. Of course Last Of Us 2. Many others.
No, but Persona 3 came close.
BEWARE, CONTEXTUAL SPOILERS AFTER THIS
I mean, it's a very Jesus-inspired story (I wasn't religious at the time but having a self-sacrificial nature is always touching), starring a dude who is less 'social butterfly everyone knows and loves' and more 'asocial newcomer who feels somewhat annoyed with life/slightly suicidal' and then there's friendship and he finds the value of life. Bretty gud, 10/10, would definitely recommend the remake that came out recently.
The ending of Crisis Core thoroughly wrecked me.
Hey, would you say... I became a hero?
It didn't quite make me cry, but the ending of Planescape Torment got me right in my feels.
