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?
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.
That Dragon Cancer made me fucking weep.

Man that’s a lot of crying during video games. “Honey are you alright? I heard you crying again?”
“This game fucking rocks!!!”

It’s the control. You ARE the Character to a lesser extent. That’s why it’s so hard to make a video game movie.
Finally someone mentions Bastion! I just love that game. The ending where you pick him up… was like chills and crying and more chills.
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.
Oh God, that part with all of the get well cards. Right in the feels.
Ohh yeahh, I forgot FFXV was like that. It hits you with a bunch of shit after that one point of no return.
It is an embodiment of “it’s all downhill from here,” aside from the fact that evil is vanquished.
