Anyone who cries because of a video game is a loser.
It's bad enough crying because of a film- it's not even real, just acting!
But from a video game?! It's even more not-real! The character's are just pixels on a screen!
Then you obviously have no idea how to appreciate a good story.
You aren't crying because you're thinking: Noo! Harrison Ford can't die (And he can't, he's too badass)!
You're crying because of the story, his
character dying. We all know it's acting, but a moving story is a moving story.
As for video games, it's the exact same thing. It doesn't matter that the story is real or not, but that it's moving. In a game with a good story, the kind that'll make you cry, you've spent time with the characters, watched them grow or mature, seen their characterization, and related to them. Finally, to see them fall, or the ones they care about fall...it doesn't matter that they aren't real, because you've related to them.
Look man, there is no need to try to be an internet tough guy. Crying about a good story, be it in book, movie, or game form, certainly doesn't make anyone a 'loser'. I'd say not being able to cry, or not allowing yourself to cry, is a very sad insecurity. Not everyone is so hung up on what others think.
