99% of the Mass Effect trilogy is my favourite franchise of all time.

That last 1%? Those endings?

Fuck man. People said they were bad, but I didn't believe them.

[HEADING=1]Why didn't I listen![/HEADING]
I know right I thought it was just the usual bluster but dear god are they awful.

That's exactly what I thought.

'People are just blowing things out of proportion, there's no way the endings are going to be that bad'

But they were. They were awful.

I get you're upset but this isn't really the thread for it.


For me, recently?
It was Thane's death scene in ME3. Then the whole fake one was Grunt in ME3 it was totally epic and then it was more epic again!
Hell yes. When people were dying left and right it was just that more epic that he didnt.

Infamous 2

Killing Zeke in the evil ending, I F-ing loved Zeke in that game, easily the best supporting character in that game and one of my favourite of all time, I would have preferred if he just shot Cole dead to be honest. what made it sad for me was that..

1. Zeke didn't distance himself from Cole in the evil campaign, they still had that bromantic night in front of the T.V
2. The sad music
3. How little effort it took to kill him, he was completely helpless.
4. He made the right decision even thought it meant standing up the Immensely powerful Cole

Zeke for president.

My most recent experience was the now "infamous" Mass Effect 3 ending...

I put a lot of time, money, DLC, emotion and Morality into the series...and what do I get.

ONE BIG FUCKED UP ENDING!
They really should of ended it with a bang (Not the three colored ending bangs at the ending of 3), like either with a happy ending (My preferred option), or a totally non expected, non bad way.

EDITED: Bioware better be pulling my damn chain and release DLC that make us happy again...or their rep will go down just like that ending.

Persona 4.

A lot of that was very sad, scary and emotional.
Too much to explain. :(
[small]Cant wait until Persona 5 now...[/small]

RDR takes the cake...
I just, I saw it coming and it still hit me like a fucking train. I adore that game
Yeeeeeeesssssss it was awful, but so fucking AWESOME at the same time. And made even more awesome by the epilogue. Hell.
I dont think there has been any game where I would have willingly shotgunned down a defenseless old woman (that old cocksuckers wife) and not felt very bad about it even if she had NOTHING to do with what had happened to "my" family.

Making the gamer feel that much hatred towards the villain is just fantastic storytelling. PROPS to Rockstar for it. And also, props to them for actually FINISHING the game and tying up loose ends in the process.

Half Life 2: Episode 2 end hit me again after I installed fakefactory and im usually pretty apathetic
Second
Cod4 MW end where that branch of the series should have ended - dead price, dead Gaz SOAP seems to take over SAS
Oh and Some Stuff in Majora's mask two examples being when you learn that lullaby from the old goron lost in the snow and another when you reunite a little girl with her semi mummified father.

"Why did it say 'she'?" "Because it was for you."

Thane and Mordin were my two favorite additions to the game in Mass Effect 2, and Thane tied with Garrus and Tali for top favorite, period. I got to witness both their deaths tonight. And tears were indeed shed- Mordin singing one last time, and the prayer for Shepard, those were what broke me.

I'm a bit dissapointed, no ones brought up Kingdom Hearts. losing Riku and Kari in the beginning of the first one, though it was just the start, that hurt me quite a bit.

ME3->
The eve before the battle at the Cerebus base. The last night with your love interest.
It was so sad I could hardly keep from crying.
Anderson sitting with Shepard, at the end. "Im proud of you, son."

RIP Mordin Solus.

I hope there are plenty of seashells for you to scan in the afterlife.

/cry
Very much this, a toast to Mordin; he was the very model of a scientist Salarian.

Kingdom Hearts II->
Just about all of the parts with Roxas or Namine; I loved those characters and it broke my hearts when I left Twilight Town and again during the ending cinematic.

LoZ: Twilight Princess->
When Midna went back to her realm and broke the gateway with her tears; I was so attached to that little hell raiser.

Mass Effect 1->
I was rather attached to Kaiden (he was the only character who talked to my Shepard like she wasn't some warrior goddess), but I had accidentally turned him away romantically and then I accidentally sent him to his death in the suicide mission. In ME2 I didn't have the heart to have Shepard get romantic with anyone else.

Valkyria Chronicles. Yes, you know the scene I'm talking about.
/ragequit

I haven't played the ME3 ending yet, so it doesn't count.

I don't play a lot of games that make me that sad, but I'd have to say Luis's death from Resident Evil 4. Or maybe loosing Dogmeat in Fallout 3.

Mass Effect 3
Mordin, Thane and Legion, you shall be mourned.
Saying goodbye to Garrus (my love interest) I had to pause the game and wait til I stopped crying before heading into no mans land
This.

At Mordin's death, I was pretty devastated. When he told me about collecting seashells in the afterlife, I cracked completely. He seemed content though. Cleaning up the mess he thought he is responsible for and all that. Besides, he was an old man.

Thane struck me too, although I was pretty sure he'll die because of the disease. The prayer at his bed and when Kolyat told me that was for me, I couldn't even. I really liked Thane :(

I must say Legion got me even more than the previous ones. His sacrifice was so selfless, right at the time when he finally achieved something his people strived for. He was finally an individual, a real person, with his own free will, and had to give that away for all geth. I believe he was happy, but I was so fucking sad.

But the worst was definitely saying good bye to Garrus. When we started joking about human-turian babies and adopting a little krogan, I cracked yet again and was laughing in between the sobs and eating half of nutella with a spoon. Oh God, I was incapable of continuing the game after that for half an hour :(

In short; I cried my ass off on half of ME3. I think I spent more time crying than otherwise. That's not really my usual thing to do, but this was just uncontrollable.

One of the sadder moments in my opinion is from Mother 3.

So much mass effect 3 in this thread
I want to hear more about some past sad moments
Like that thing in pokemon red where you find out your rival unconsciously resents you for the death of his radicate, more so because you keep beating him and then you go on to shatter his dreams of being indigo league champion by beating him 5 min later, stealing the love of his grandfather professor oak and rubbing it in his orphan face.
