Video Games that tore your heart?

[Caius]

I cry at literally every sad scene in a game I'm invested in.

This is me.


A few games that actually destroyed me though..

Drakengard, Drakengard 2, Drakengard 3, The Last Story, The Last Remnant, Nier, Metal Gear Solid 3, Metal Gear Solid 4, Crisis Core.

Edit: Tales of the Abyss

Couldn't they have just let Ion live

All the Mother/Earthbound games and Professor Layton: The Last Specter. I need to play the other Professor Layton games...

Unwound Future will make you bawl like a baby. PL games are known for their sentimental endings :'3

 

[Chibi.Hoshi]

Eh, I will add Shovel Knight here as well. A game I have recently played, its good.

;~; Oh great.
Thanks for letting me know, seriously thanks for the tip. XD

Xillia and Xillia 2 made a wreck out of me. The first one mostly because I relate really strongly to Leia and some of her scenes were just... I dunno, they hit a chord with me (especially the bit where she and Milla are talking outside Driselle's mansion... ughhh) and the stuff with Alvin's mom was just heartbreaking. The second game itself is heartbreak incarnate once the story gets going so I won't even start with that.

tbh I cry like a baby at pretty much even the most vaguely tearjerking scenes ugh.
as much as I hated the gameplay Kingdom Hearts: Days made me bawl because everything with Xion/Axel/Roxas was just a tragedy waiting to happen and it was the ACTUAL WORST.

also yeah, Unwound Future... ugh talk about a tearjerker.

Several of the Kingdom Hearts games have made me cry like a baby and the stress I felt while playing Trauma Center was pretty heart-wrenching.

 

[Paranoid]

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, oh my god. While the ending you get depends on how you play,
even the "good ending" is all out depressing.

 

[Bowie]

Candy Crush Saga.

 

[Reindeer]

Metal Gear Solid 3

I salute that.
Metal Gear Solid 3 and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker were two of the only games to get an emotional reaction out of me. The way MGSV is shaping up, I'm afraid it's gonna get me close to tears.

The ending of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess also gave me some feels.
And finding N's room in Pokemon Black/White.

 

[TofuIdol]

Kingdom hearts two made me ball like a little baby with Axel. Mother 3 so far has made me cry so far where I am in the story.
An don't get me started on Tales of Xillia 2. I didn't think going into it I would cry as hard as I did. But the scene between Ludger and his brother...instantly broke me into a huge balling fit that last a good ten minuets.

 

[A-Link]

I never really reached the stage where I'd actually cry, but there were 2 games that made me "squeak":
-Mother 3: When flint found out that Claus was dead, and the last fight between Locus and Claus

Spoiler: Ace attorney 2 spoiler

-Ace Attorney Justice For All: Its bad ending.

 

[LilD]

FFX (music)
Walking Dead

 

[Amissapanda]

@A-Link---You might want to put that in a spoiler tag. :x

 

[Amilee]

the walking dead season 1 qq
omg the end and everything aaah qq

 

[DarkDesertFox]

The Walking Dead Season 1 game definitely broke my heart.

 

[desy]

There's this one scene in The World Ends With You with Beat and Rhyme (about how they died and stuff) and I was tearing up. Not full-out crying, but still. It was really sad.

 

[aliscka]

The Lanayru Desert level in Skyward Sword always makes me cry...

The idea of lost civilizations and the fact that so much knowledge was lost makes me cry. I could just be a baby though...

 

[TheAbleSistersShow]

Well, needless to say Sable's story throughout the Animal Crossing series has always been very meaningful to me. Though, that story isn't really the story of the games as a whole. More of a side thing.

I think I would say the most heart-wrenching games would be The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask and The Last of Us. Every time I play those games I feel the emotions all over again.

I think their story is very unappreciated by fans. How the player can practically help Sable cope with all the awful things she's had to go through is very touching, and the concept of death is something I think Animal Crossing really needed to make it even more individual. Oh, and I'd also like to wish you luck with your animated series. I'm working on my own, actually. You can count on me being a follower of your work.
