Saddest Moments in a Video Game
- Thread starter GirDraconis
- Start date
I can't think of many off the top of my head right now, Hawke's mom in DA2, now that was just fucked up
When Vladimir died in Battlefield 3. The music, the dead silence afterwards, the way Dima looks back at him several times... I could literally feel Dima's grief in my gut.
Also this scene in Mass Effect 2:
Every time I do that mission, I play the message and burst into tears every time.

The first that come to mind is the most recent genuinely sad moment I experienced while gaming.
Assassin's Creed Revelations:
I actually had tears in my eyes.
EDIT:
Assassin's Creed Revelations:
When you play Altair's very last moment, and get the objective "Just sit down and rest for a little while", right after his farewell to his son.
EDIT:
And this. I really liked the guy too, but it didn't make me quite as depressed as the other scene I mentioned. I did go on a killing spree dedicated to him, though...K84 said:
Dear God... That was horribly sad. Did the writers save all the good story telling for the DLC? There was nothing that compelling in the main story, in my opinion.Gammayun said:

Not only is the saddest part of the game, it overcomes four things going against it:
1. It's incredibly early in the game (which is why I didn't spoiler it)
2. We've barely seen Cynthia up to that point.
3. Cynthia wasn't that likable.
4. dat voice acting
And yet it made me bawl. I don't even know how.

When in my entire team in Mass Effect 2 died at the end. Sad times. =(

I'm quite sure you know which ending to which game this is from..and the fact it wasn't mentioned yet is damned disappointing
