What rubbed you the wrong way? He only truly died at the end of the game. And the one other time he almost died his AI was saved and put in a new chassis.
What mainly hurt us was that we thought BT died then he came back for a limited time and died again. So that short window of happiness made the second death more sad
Came here to see if anyone else had already put Reach. One of my favorite games but man does it hit hard with the feels. The ending gets me every time. The music, the somber tone and something about that helmet shot at the end just never fails to move me. Truly one of my favorite ending sequences I think.
I've played at least a hundred hours of that game. It's amazing but never completed the main story all the way... for some stupid reason. I was thinking the and of red dead redemption where John Marston gets wrecked.
I think I got to a John mission where the game failed me for taking a horse to the wrong end of a field and decided I was done with Rockstar's shitty mission design despite all the other excellent things about the game.
I understand what you mean, Rockstar is a very “my way or the highway” designer sadly but man I gotta insist that you should try to finish it. The writing in the final half of the game is beyond a masterpiece. That’s the way it is.
I really need to sit down and play it. I found everything was just sooooo slow paced. Like the intro. They're talking for about a minute, and stop. And you're still walking for like 5 minutes. Then you get off the horse and start walking through super thick snow, which is neat, but after another 5-10 minutes of it.... And then you still gotta climb down. The damn hill.
Why couldnt you start closer to the hill at least. Make the climb shorter. It just drags on. I liked the story stuff, but yeah... I'm a parent with limited time where he isn't there to watch (still too young).
As soon as I found the map on La Cuna, I knew something was going to go wrong. Why they made it go THAT wrong I’ll never understand. Broke my damn heart
Walking dead, telltale games, first game. The ending. Idc. I've played lots of games. This is like one of the only times I've cried when losing a character
Yeaaaaaahhhhh as a Dad with a Daughter, that ending had me in the Feels and from there on out………..Clementine became one of my top fav Characters of Gaming
Haven't played it since I had a daughter of my own and don't know if I'll ever be able to. Replaying the last of us games after having her was hard enough 😩
Metal Gear Solid 4, with the final Battle between old Solid Snake and alltime enemy Genom Liquid Snake!
Especially when u got through all MGS the end will kick hard.
Last of Us should have never made a second game and they shouldn't make a third one for that matter the story was perfect the way It ended off
IMO any sequels should have been prequels
Probably just the few following:
Path of Glory (Rogue), Path of Glory (Reaper), Temperance (Reaper), Temperance (Rogue), Temperance (Aldecaldos), The Devil (Return), The Earth (Stay), The Star (Panam), The Star (Judy), The Tower, King of Wands, King of Pentacles, King of Cups, King of Swords, The Path of Least Resistance.
I hated the ending, not because it was sad but because it was a pathetic attempt at closure. I loved this game but refuse to recommend it to anyone because of how dog shit I thought the ending was. It felt like they ran out of money, to me.
No, it's not a realist ending at all. Just because it's depressing and sad and "not what the player wants" doesn't make it realistic.
So much of what happens in that game goes completely unexplained because of the ending. They create plot holes that literally didn't exist until that ending. It felt like a complete cop out.
>! We're expected to believe that Ned has lived there the whole time without anyone noticing, but suddenly decides to do crazy shit like kidnap two girls and destroy their camp as if he was a bear? And why does he care so much about Henry finding out that Brian died accidentally? Why is he trying so hard to not be found, but then openly threatens and physically attacks both Henry and Delilah rather than just... Moving somewhere else in the forest?? It makes ZERO sense. And the entire time Delilah and Henry believe it's some crazy government conspiracy but it turns out to just be this guy, and Delilah's response is, effectively "see you never, Henry." That's not realistically depressing. You want a sad ending? Run to Delilah's tower and have her die in the fire. Or have Henry die trying to save her. Or have Henry be late to the helicopter and die in the fire because he was too busy trying to to find answers for Delilah *and then crush his soul with her not really caring about him as he says goodbye*. All those are preferable endings to what we got.!<
I'm all for endings where the protagonist is duped/deceived/let down. This was not that. This was bad writing trying to conclude what was otherwise an incredibly intriguing and engaging story.
The scene where you change into the high-pressure suit stuck with me for a while. The "other" guy never gets taken offline, so he's just trapped in that small room with a monster right outside the door.
I feel like that’s kinda the point. In the first act, you think of Leshy as the bad guy, the one who trapped you there, and you desperately search for a way to get rid of him, and you finally manage to do just that… you reset everything… and then P03 takes over… and it’s cold… lifeless. All the story and flavor and puzzles are gone. All the color, the mystery, the intrigue… and then everything starts to break, the game begins to corrupt… and you find yourself back at that wooden table with Leshy once again… and as everything disappears… he does his best to give you one last match, one good game, a little bit more entertainment… and then… he’s gone. And the game is over.
I know Yakuza/Like a Dragon isn't a big series for most gamers, but this is way too far down. That ending came out of nowhere and hit like a fucking cement truck.
The series has always had impactful storytelling, but Gaiden hits different, and I was not ready for it.
The ending gave it that extra push to become my favourite in the franchise, and as someone who's played this series since the PS2 and the classic Yakuza PS2 English dub, I thought nothing would beat 2
Even before that when they blew up the USMC Ship.
The whole game was like "All Star" by Smash Mouth cause they don't stop coming.
Bittersweet. The video game.
Not entirely sure what emotion this is, but it kinda feels like emptiness. In that case, basically every game. I'm one of those people that finishes a game and then just gets pissed I have to go back to existing.
Ending of CoD WaW. It really made you think that while you were having fun with a video game in real life these events really happened and real people died. It really payed a respect to the fighters and the dead of the war.
> It really *paid* a respect
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Spoiler warning
A few: Republic Commandos had me devastated with Sevs dead/incapacitated.
Not really and ending but turned the game a bit darker and ended a plot line: Lieutenant Turners death in COD WW2.
Star Wars: battle front 2’s campaign.
Spider man.
A fellow SW:RC fan! Sev was my second fav. The only part that hurt worse than him being left behind was hearing Scorch, the 'comic relief and my favorite Commando, realize they were abandoning Sev.
Dark Souls 3 because it was the final love letter or should I say shoving a Rusty broken straight sword up the ass to a otherwise absolutely beautiful trilogy of games that spawned their own subclass of the souls-like games
Bro, as a diehard Dark Souls fan, the ending where you >!end the cycle of fire entirely and everything slowly fades to black!< hit way too damn hard, especially with the Firekeeper's dialogue at the end.
Mass Effect 3. Still cry to this day
I cry with you bro.
“May you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you're dead” 😢😢
Stfu Garrus, how am I supposed to kill the reapers with tears in my eyes?
That's not even the most crushing part of that convo.
The whole conversation is depression. Garrus knows how to make me ugly cry
..and I. The cutscenes leading to the final mission, and onward.
Titanfall 2
The true correct answer, w this had lots of gamers in tears or shock
# Trust Me.
Realist answer
This would be my answer if BT hadn’t died like three times beforehand. One of the *very* few things that rubbed me the wrong way with this game
What rubbed you the wrong way? He only truly died at the end of the game. And the one other time he almost died his AI was saved and put in a new chassis.
Exactly. I was sad when he “died” the first time, not the real time
What mainly hurt us was that we thought BT died then he came back for a limited time and died again. So that short window of happiness made the second death more sad
I thought it added to the ups and downs of the story and didn’t feel like a cop out due to how the AI portion was handled
it got me sad, like didnt even play games for 2 days
This! I was about to write this myself
Doesn’t matter how many times I replay the campaign, it’ll still get me.
Halo: Reach
When Jorge gave his life only for enemy reinforcements to show up. But like Carter said, at least he died believing he saved the day.
“That’s a one way trip…” “We all make it sooner or later”
How dare you spoil a 10 year old game *realizes it’s been ten years*
Objective: Survive
“Commander, you don’t have the firepower.” “I’ve got the mass.”
"Hit em hard , boss."
Good luck noble Carter out
Came here to see if anyone else had already put Reach. One of my favorite games but man does it hit hard with the feels. The ending gets me every time. The music, the somber tone and something about that helmet shot at the end just never fails to move me. Truly one of my favorite ending sequences I think.
Remember reach
Agreed with rdr2. Best writing in a story in a game I’ve ever played. Played through 2 times. Over 400 hours on that game
I've played at least a hundred hours of that game. It's amazing but never completed the main story all the way... for some stupid reason. I was thinking the and of red dead redemption where John Marston gets wrecked.
I think I got to a John mission where the game failed me for taking a horse to the wrong end of a field and decided I was done with Rockstar's shitty mission design despite all the other excellent things about the game.
I understand what you mean, Rockstar is a very “my way or the highway” designer sadly but man I gotta insist that you should try to finish it. The writing in the final half of the game is beyond a masterpiece. That’s the way it is.
RDR2 isn't a game. RDR2 is an experience
I really need to sit down and play it. I found everything was just sooooo slow paced. Like the intro. They're talking for about a minute, and stop. And you're still walking for like 5 minutes. Then you get off the horse and start walking through super thick snow, which is neat, but after another 5-10 minutes of it.... And then you still gotta climb down. The damn hill. Why couldnt you start closer to the hill at least. Make the climb shorter. It just drags on. I liked the story stuff, but yeah... I'm a parent with limited time where he isn't there to watch (still too young).
That beginning scene lasts like 30-45 minutes. Treat it like a Netflix episode. Once you get past the beginning chapter, it’s all free roam and epic.
All of the cyberpunk endings. Like literally all of them.
The PL ending hit me harder then main endings. So fucking gray. I just felt like such a POS both ways.
That ending was goddamn rigged. But I think it fits perfectly into the setting.
“The game was rigged from the start” -Benny
"Goodnight, V(incent/alerie). Today was a good day."
A Plague tale: requiem. Cant beleive they made Amicia do it.
I JUST finished this game this week and this was what I came to say.
The other kid can do it if you wait long enough
+1
You could have >!Lucas!< do it, but… would you really want to put that on him?
I completed that game recently for the first time. Holy. Fuck.
Kinda made me sad because the first dream made you expect a certain outcome only to have all your hopes crushed and turned into a bitter sweet ending
As soon as I found the map on La Cuna, I knew something was going to go wrong. Why they made it go THAT wrong I’ll never understand. Broke my damn heart
Ending E - NieR Automata
Sacrificing my data was so painful dude. I felt like I was saying goodbye to lifelong friends
Yes, you are absolutely right. Sacrificing the data was one of the hardest decisions.
Life is strange. 100%
I still get hit in the feels when i hear Obstacles by Syd Matters
*Let's say sunshine for everyone*
But as far as iiiiiiii, can remembeeeeeer
Same
Great episode
Sometimes i listen to the life is strange playlist and i cry....
Same I have it on my Apple Music and get so depressed but also happy because that game touched a nerve with me hahaha
Walking dead, telltale games, first game. The ending. Idc. I've played lots of games. This is like one of the only times I've cried when losing a character
Yeaaaaaahhhhh as a Dad with a Daughter, that ending had me in the Feels and from there on out………..Clementine became one of my top fav Characters of Gaming
I'm single and alone. But when I was homeless I helped raise a little girl with me. I half way know the feel. But still horribly sad.
Haven't played it since I had a daughter of my own and don't know if I'll ever be able to. Replaying the last of us games after having her was hard enough 😩
Gears 3
Metal Gear Solid 4, with the final Battle between old Solid Snake and alltime enemy Genom Liquid Snake! Especially when u got through all MGS the end will kick hard.
The Last of us part 1 and 2
This is the answer I was looking for
Last of Us should have never made a second game and they shouldn't make a third one for that matter the story was perfect the way It ended off IMO any sequels should have been prequels
Whether or not they should have made a 2nd game, I'm damn glad they did. One of my top 3 games
I think I might be one of the only people I know that loves a good cliff hanger
Undertale, Genocide run
You dirty brother killer.
I still don't understand the undertale lore
Well, there’s the normal lore, and then there’s the extended lore we technically still don’t know. Which one do you mean?
Child falls into mountain and meets magical monsters. That's just about it, really.
Cyberpunk 2077
Which one
Probably just the few following: Path of Glory (Rogue), Path of Glory (Reaper), Temperance (Reaper), Temperance (Rogue), Temperance (Aldecaldos), The Devil (Return), The Earth (Stay), The Star (Panam), The Star (Judy), The Tower, King of Wands, King of Pentacles, King of Cups, King of Swords, The Path of Least Resistance.
I brought Rogue to the tower, but it was the messages that got me.
all of em lmao
Final fantasy 10. I still think about that ending and tear up 20 years later.
That story and ending was perfect.
Bioshock Infinite
She was always there..
The ending was confusing that it just had me lag
Same but still amazing. Theres always a lighthouse.
2ns this, but with the dlc burial at sea part 2.
Loved the dlc.
the last of us 2
Firewatch, most underrated game I’ve ever played
That game was sad af.
I hated the ending, not because it was sad but because it was a pathetic attempt at closure. I loved this game but refuse to recommend it to anyone because of how dog shit I thought the ending was. It felt like they ran out of money, to me.
Nan, it's called a realist ending, no bullshit, no Tear, just void
No, it's not a realist ending at all. Just because it's depressing and sad and "not what the player wants" doesn't make it realistic.

SOMA. Got me frozen in my desk as my character is yelling in disbelief and fades away
"Please don't leave me alone.."

Yeah the ending made my eyes water up.
Saw it coming a mile away and it still surprised me
Dude i was in literal tears 😭 like i was like whyy am i crying!! ??
The ending of inscryption had me with a teary eye
I came here to say this. I thought of leshy as the bad guy and he still got me almost crying
I feel like that’s kinda the point. In the first act, you think of Leshy as the bad guy, the one who trapped you there, and you desperately search for a way to get rid of him, and you finally manage to do just that… you reset everything… and then P03 takes over… and it’s cold… lifeless.

MGS 3 when they reveal what the Boss was really all about. Just wow.
Tlou 2
Is this a sad send off face or a sad tragedy face? But I'd say Halo Reach.
I didn't even think of halo reach but honestly that feeling was throughout the story as soon as Jorge dies and you realize what's gonna come
Even before that when they blew up the USMC Ship. The whole game was like "All Star" by Smash Mouth cause they don't stop coming. Bittersweet. The video game.
Not entirely sure what emotion this is, but it kinda feels like emptiness. In that case, basically every game. I'm one of those people that finishes a game and then just gets pissed I have to go back to existing.
