The way Lucien described how he did it is something I don't want to relive.Onyx Oblivion said:A ton of games, the largest effect being Fable 2, believe it or not. Not the dog, but my family.
The most emotional I've gotten in a game is Baldur's Gate 2. I remember being terrified after I was thrown into the Asylum Dungeon and Bodhi giving her monologue about giving me time to run before coming to hunt. The horror of the dungeon was heightened knowing that I was on the run. Every time I rested, I half-expected her to show up and massacre my team.
The game also had frustration incarnate in the Illithid Stronghold.
Also, the saddest I've ever been in a game was a little bit later. When I was going into the graveyard to kill Bodhi, she appeared and stole away my girlfriend Aerie! In the final encouter with Bodhi I was then forced to kill Aerie who had been turned into a vampire! Before I found out that she could be revived, I was damning BioWare to the darkest pits of hell.
And I resolutely say that no charracter in gaming history is funnier than Minsc.
