Honestly I think Teddy's "death" in Mother 1 was sadder than any moment in Mother 3. You barely get to know Hinawa before she dies and the masked man is so obviously Claus that by the time you get to him I'm already over it. I also felt his fight was just disappointing compared to the Giygas fights. I still love all 3 games though, Mother 3 just didn't do much for me emotionally.

As far as depressing stuff goes: Civ 5 has many flaws, but it does some pretty good stuff with the music - in particular, many of the (non-faction related) ambient themes that play when you're at war actually are pretty gloomy and dark.
It actually can make you feel pretty bad when you hear this sad music, drop a nuke on an enemy city, and hear of the screams of its inhabitants as the missile or bomber approaches cease abruptly.

27 year old largely disinterested in games due to old age sees free skyrim mod. Figure I'll check it out.
spoiler alert
Ooh, interesting combat. Much better writing than Skyrim. Crispy piece of meat! Revert back to gamer mentality; must find arena, exploit my brain to win combat that should be too hard for my level, and get epic gear and money for little effort. Discover arena in the undercity of Ark. Do all the things. Random jew-elf shows up and kills my giant and tells me he has a quest for me.
Do all the quest stuff. Pretty cool quests. Notice my responses make him like or dislike me, has him appreciating or being hurt by what I tell him. Reload a few times to make him like me. I will game this system and milk this guy for all the in-game rewards. It must be a good idea to have him like me; who cares if I actually agree with what I'm saying? Just placate the angry jew-elf-emo.
Repentant old faggot who hates what he used to be begs for mercy, jew-elf asks me what I think? Maybe be lenient, his life is already suffering. Jew-elf-emo is hurt by comment, and then kills him anyway. Wtf? Might as well re-load and get brownie points so jew-elf-emo likes me. *reloads* Much better. I mean he was going to die anyway so its not like I'm missing out, right?
Sent to murder stupid zealot bitch to gain the trust of emo-elf-jew's arch-nemesis so we can super-secretly murder him later on. Sure. They want me to take her heart. Why not? See her. She tells me how twisted her life has become, how her eyes tormented her with visions of melting flesh revealing the folly of individual identity. Feel pity. Writing is actually pretty top tier. Meh, she is lost anyway, the bitch is begging me to kill her. Might as well. Stab.
Fast-forward to the final quest. Me and elf-jew are accompanied by friendly female mercenary. Legit good writing actually makes me feel the warms towards her. Why is it some random mod-maker can make me care about characters when actual multi-billion dollar game studios cannot? Whatever. We get part way into this temple and then jew-elf murders her. What?!?! I liked that bitch. Tell him I thought it was a dick-move; he is 'hurt by that', tells me that we needed a sacrifice anyway. Hmm. Might as well reload and get him to like me, I mean she had to die anyway, right? She's dead either way so might as well make jew-elf happy with my response. *reloads*
The final encounter. Jew-elf's whole crusade revealed to be bogus, the reason for his hatred for the world (his friends death) is shown to be false, and he has been working with that same friend (disguised by a mask and some other stuff about him basically losing part of his soul when the supposedly-big-bad-guy tried to save his life). Elf-jew murders his best-friend and reason for living. Can choose between siding with supposedly-big-bad-who-was-apparently-telling-the-truth-and-trying-to-be-a-big-good or with my angry elf-jew friend. Side with elf-jew. I actually feel sorrow and pity for him, I mean his whole existence is based on this lie and he was only trying to do what he believed was right, even though he never knew all the facts.
Battle over. Elf-jew is a broken man, says how he is a monster for what he has done. He murdered so many in his quest for retribution against what he thought was a greater evil. He showed no mercy. He killed his best friend; his very reason for his quest. Tell him it's okay, that he was doing what he thought was right, that he can still redeem himself.
He tells me that I never let others have a chance to redeem themselves. I told him not to give the old-repentant man a second chance. I murdered the confused and tortured woman. I was supportive of his murder of the friendly-mercenary as the 'ends justified the means'. He says that neither he nor I ever gave anyone a second chance; so he does not deserve a second chance either. Jumps off a cliff and dies.
I sit there stunned for about 30 seconds, save the game and turn it off. Half wish I had disagreed with his murders and not reloaded, curious to see if I could have saved him, and finally I come to the conclusion that the fact that this game has made me think so much about this is a testament to its fucking genius.
RIP you angry elf-jew.

Sure I was a pleb, still kind of is, but that game really taught me a lot about moving in 3D space and how to keep cool during intense boss fights. Game is still one of my top 10 games. No game quite gives me the same feeling of flow.

In mk2 and Re;birth 2 if you somehow manage to reach this ending, it's known as the Conquest Ending and reviled. In short: The end sees 7 of the 8 Goddesses sacrificing themselves to a cursed sword so Nepgear has a chance at the final boss. And then the final boss mocks you because with only one Goddess there will never be progress in this universe and Nepgear is pathetic and starts to doubt herself. That's the short version. The full has to be seen for yourself and I'm not ashamed to have teared up in a few places when seeing it. It is not an arc that belongs in this series so fans hated it, to the point that you see unflattering references to it in other games and the anime.

Clannad. Not the "usual" cry here moments. For me, it was the discussion between the MC and his grandmother. The one where she talks about her son. For some people it's just another scene in a series of sad scenes and tearful moments. But for some, like me, it hits home and it hits hard. ef - a fairy tale of the two, the ending movie where the guy stops himself from reaching out and calling out. Too bad the anime takes a perfect moment and shits on it.

The ending of the game is singing a lullaby to the invading alien overlord to emotionally traumatize him into leaving because it's the same song that his human mother figure sang to him as a child, the mother figure who left him behind to return home, and now he has to destroy her home and humanity but can't let go of the love he still has for her. I'd say it's a little bit sad.

Apparently it's bad in the original game but it was the best weapon I had in my playthrough of Re;birth 2. It's the only ending I've actually gotten because the game was losing me somewhat and on finally committing to finishing it decided to see what the fuss was. As bad as it was I liked how mean the oracles are to you, and Underling finally getting what she deserves, and while they make the ending easier to get in the re-make, they added an optional branch in that arc to a best ending.

>Depressing moments in vidya
>What are some of the most heart wrenching moments you can think off?
The industry cucking itself out to SJWs, feminists, liberals, communists, cucks, faggots, jews and niggers.
The industry fought with kike backed (((politicians))), (((lawyers))), and (((conservatives))) for years over violence in vidya, simply because vidya is an easy target. Then, due to a fucking kike whore, a mentally ill tranny faggot, and a fucking disgusting lying (((Armenian))) cunt, all wanting fame, power, and shekels, the industry bows to them cause of the pussy pass (or mutilated dick pass in the tranny's case). They spout the same messages the (((politicians))) of the 90's did, but with a feminist, liberal, and communist twist, and the industry takes it as gospel. Yes, the decline started in 2007, with Portal, The Big Bang Theory, and the kikes starting to market to "nerd gaymer culture", but it really fucking went down hill in 2014 (or maybe the end of 2013, thanks to sand nigger liar Dina Abou Karam and Mighty No. 9).
The quicker this industry dies, the better. At least this way, the pain won't get worse, since we can always rely on piracy when everything crashes. And hopefully, those who lose their jobs will go bankrupt and be kicked out on the streets then they'll have to answer for their crimes.

Can't emphasize this enough, especially for that specific example. I know a lot of the story moments are going to hit hardest on the first playthrough, but Normal mode is just the tutorial, the journey is still all ahead of you. DMC3 is one of those games where mastery takes hundreds of hours to achieve. There will be a point where you turn up the difficulty and it feels like fighting a boss for the first time again.

I don't keep a list, but Wolf Children made my eyes leak the fastest out of anything I've ever watched. The montage of stressed university girl and secret werewolf turning to struggling but happy young couple and then suddenly he's killed while looking for food in wol form in the city, and she finds his body as sanitation workers are tossing it into a dump truck, and these bewildered jap public workers are trying to calm down this hysterically sobbing and screaming woman who's lunging for the dead animal that nobody else knows is her true love and the father of her unborn children instantly fucked me up.
Vidya hasn't made much of an impact, though I don't play many jap games, and they're bigger on tragedy. Saddest vidya moment was actually from a dogshit game. In Dragon Age 2, Merrill (before they turned her into a pUpPiEs N uNiCoRnS xDD randumb cancer) seemingly gets her shit together and doesn't obsess as much over her the eldritch broken mirror that killed her friend or the clan that shunned her, thanks to the comfort of protag's big dick, but then in the third act you find out she was cavorting with demons and ends up getting her clan leader and potentially her whole clan killed dealing with it. It's fucking retarded and there are people being unreasonably stupid on all sides (as in every conflict in Dragon Age 2), but her breaking her mirror and sobbing her guts out after losing everything she had left except your magnum dong was still rough.

Getting back to the thread topic, I got pretty emotional at the end of Shadow of the Colossus, after Mono wakes up, and Agro limps in to accompany her, after seeing him apparently die just a little while earlier.
