2005. I was 14 years old and I had just beat Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.
I still cry to this day.
*Cue salute flashback*
You're not alone!!
Taylor Stratford I still haven’t fully played through snake eater or sons of liberty, those are the only 2 metal gear games I haven’t beaten. I need to go back and play them again
@@jeremyroberts8822 It's truly heartbreaking, narratively
I remember the reveal at the end being especially heartbreaking. The Boss's and Naked Snake's story arch was unlike anything I've seen any video game before or since.
Spider-Man PS4, when Peter confronts Otto in the end, also when Peter finds out Aunt May knew his identity and passes away.
That broke me. I am not into superheroes but PS4 Spiderman is the canon one for me, I love him to bits. Platted that game and it was my pleasure.
“Take off that mask. Let me see my nephew.” It broke me and took me a while to get back to normal
You know what wont break your heart, Jules ending words of encouragement
Oh no, they do but in the best way possible
JUULS?
Red dead redemption 2: " I gave you all I had, I did " Rip Arthur Morgan
lol, It Hurt me Reading this... >.< :'( (Soooo Good!)
The song they play when he rides back to the camp kills me because you know it’s about to end and know his fate
Like now almost a year after I have finished the game I still haven’t come over his death. Cuz you have such a big relationship with Arthur Morgan. And his death broke my heart into pieces
The ending to titanfall 2 made me weep just from the simple bond that was between BT and jack
Excellent choice.
Have you tried playing "This War of Mine" at hardest difficultly. That game made me feel like I'm at war and I'm the civilian trapped in the conflict.
The dilemana and choices you made in order to survive stabs you in the feel. A kid from another settlement asking for medicine but one of your sick people need it as well.Your people survived the war but in the end it makes you regret and reflect on the choices you've done be killing, giving, refusing, trading and risking just to see them live another day in the middle of the war.
That game is depression simulator. Its great but...you always have to be prepared to be unhappy
Arthur(RDR2) saying "I'm afraid" made me cry harder than any other video game. To me it was sadder than his death, you knew it was coming. Just the face Arthur makes breaks my heart everytime. It doesn't help that he reminds me of my husband. Dutch walking away from a dying Arthur had me pretty tore up as well.
The game that broke my heart was Telltale the walking dead season 4, seeing clementine get her happy ending after all those years from season 1 just broke me, as the credits rolled I just cried
RDR2 broke my heart into several pieces. Hearing 'That's The Way It Is' played made me tear up man :( 😂
No! Still to painful!
Exactly. The last ride of Arthur,...with this song... :-(
How do you know R2D2 can’t talk
The Last Of Us for me. My heart was broken in the first ten minutes and remains in pieces throughout.
It’s a weird one for me. I wouldn’t say the game broke my heart at any point. Even the opening of the game didn’t affect me that much. I will say that when that guy shoots himself after having to kill his brother, that part has me shook.
Jules and I are of the same cloth. Tali’s goodbye was by far the most heart wrenching in Mass Effect 3
KryosTheAwesome two words
Garrus Vakarian
The ending to Yakuza 0 when Majima didn't end up with Makoto completely obliterate my heart.
Bearded wizard When she finds her watch and it’s fixed. Not only is it the most heartbreaking endings but possibly one of the most satisfying if that makes sense.
My choice would be What Remains of Edith Finch, or Marvel Spider-Man wirh the Aunt May scene towards the end
Arthur Morgan’s last ride to camp broke me
The only game that really made me cry was Red Dead Redemption 2 when Arthur is reading Mary goodbye letter.
J when Arthur confesses that he is afraid of dying to the nun... always breaks my heart
Man I have still yet to replay that game again because it’s so dang heartbreaking! Arthur was a real one!
" I'm scared"
"I'm a bad man, I did bad things"
The legend of Zelda twilight princess was the only game that made me cry lmao the ending where midna goes back to the twili and she breaks the mirror with her tear and it shatters as she teleports back home is what broke my heart
Yea, that was really sad. Whhyyyy Midna.
To the Moon. Everyone should play that game. Only about three hours long but damn does it take you on a journey. I'll warn you, the tears start well before the end.
If I may make some suggestions, you should look up What Remains Of Edith Finch, This Dragon Cancer and The Beginner's Guide for similar storytelling.
@@johnathonhaney8291 Agree with all those. Played What Remains & The Beginner's Guide. Those can both give you a proper kick in the feels. To the Moon got me the most though.
I know what This Dragon Cancer is. Just can't bring myself to look at that just yet.
I really like how Oasley talks about his picks in these videos, it comes across as very sincere and passionate. As does everybody tbf
For me the The last of us, entire life is strange series ,and entire telltale walking dead game series was a emotional rollercoaster that made me cry many times
Scott: "I want new game mechanics and new ideas and storytelling"
Also Scott: "I hate Death Stranding"
It's ok to want a decent story as well
Yeeeeaaah Death Stranding wasn't a good game for being something new and weird. A game ain't good if most of it is walking, cutscenes and confusing plot.
It's a decent story : complicated, with a lot of reflexions on the death, the life and connexions between people, but decent and really good if you like to analyse the different symbolisms of the story. Ok there is some cheesy moments, but there are just a few, and after all they can quite lighten up a little the subject of the game some times. Besides it’s not a new things in kojima’s games.
On the fact that one character have Clifford as his name, it is not because of the fact that Sam save him from a cliff. Don’t want to spoil the game, but this character is not define by this fact at all… It’s his name, and as always in the Kojima’s games, there are other important symbolics. (like almost all the names of the protagonists of death stranding). If you read all the interviews, reports and emails from the game, you discover that the story has even more layer and complexity.
Death Stranding is not perfect. There is some imperfections and problems in its menus, where you pass a lot of time, so this is really annoying when you play. There is some abrupt difficulty spikes when you arrive in some chapters of the game : when you are forced to make fast and big gunfights, if in the rest of the game you use only sneak attacks and never gunfight. An other big flaw of this game is the fact that you need to play a lot after the completion of the story, if you want to read all the interviews, reports and emails, and discover the full story of the game. At last, it’s true that the finish of the game with almost 2 hours of cinematics is really too long.
But definetely, the story is one of its good point if you ready to take time to analyse it. You can don't like it of course, but saying that is not decent and full of bushits. Well if it is the case, not a lot of games have decent narrative and story in all the video game production.
@Cyberpunks Witcher Nope i am the kind to see many plot holes in the last star wars movies ;) But you can always see the good points and the bad points of one work. For me, except for the photography and the wonderful work on the visual effect and colours, i am not a fan of these last movies because of the way their story was conducted. I am in fact really severe on the quality of the narrative structure of films, games or books.
I am actually still playing at Death Stranding, after having finish the main story, to read all the interviews, reports and emails. And well for me, the story is complexe but coherent and let see that it was thinked a lot when writen down. I don't say it's perfect, but for me it's decent and really better than some others.
But every one can have there own point of view, it's not a problem for me.
A guy can't change his mind? And besides that, it's always the execution that matters the most in the end.
Mordin dying...broke my heart. Count those sea shells on the sea shore my friend! Count them to your hearts con..(runs away sobbing)
Literally everything Bethesda has done since Skyrim
excluding wolfenstein and DOOM
@@Damianskii wolfenstein young blood was heartbreaking- ly bad
So_funny_m8 Bethesda has nothing to do with Doom and wolfenstein. They just publish them.
@@aazelion5189 that would explain the major difference in quality 😂
WitWoolley93 i honestly enjoyed wolfenstein: Youngblood. I thought the gameplay itself was really fun, but I get why you and a lot of other people don’t like it because it wasn’t nearly as good as the previous 2 wolfenstein games and the main characters are fucking annoying. I’ll admit too that it is hard to just ignore the characters and enjoy the game because they never shut up lol
Brothers: a tale of two sons. Shadow of the colossus. What remains of edith finch. PT.
I love Josh coming in to say his heart was broken because something was too good. Everyone else is just bitching about their favorite game changing or disappointing them.
The Burial At Sea ending (Bioshock Infinite DLC).
Seconded...a tragedy piled on top of an already massive one.
Bioshock Infinite in general broke me
Had ptsd after it was great.
Detroit: Become human, the part in where they're in camps and Kara has to decide to sacrifice someone and seeing everyone waiting to be killed 😭 I cried so much
"You're not like that. You don't wear a mask... much"
Cliff is short for his name.. Clifford..
Admittedly princess beach part was cringe but overall a strong ending I thought
WWE 2K20 broke my heart, but not in a good way, it broke it for being such a glitchy mess.
You want to talk heart break? What about MGS5 when your quarenteen* platform is no longer viable and you have to go handle it.? Those soldiers who know they are doomed stand and salute you as you shoot them one by one. The loyalty and trust they have for you, knowing you have to make the hard choice. It kills me every time I think about it. Honestly it's a shame it isn't mentioned.
Damn now I'm crying. Thanks
Narcosis and Red Dead Redemption 2. Both had me sitting in my room in silence.
Beyond : two souls 😢
"There is only room for one Boss, and one Snake"
"I gave you all I had, I did"
"The people and the friends we have lost, or the dreams that have faded.... Never forget them."
The game that broke my heart is going to have to be Silent Hill: Shattered Memories.
This post contains SPOILERS. So fair warning.
The game opens with a home movie of a father and daughter at a theme park and the daughter proclaiming how much she loves her daddy.
Then the game begins in traditional Silent Hill fashion with the father and daughter in a car accident. Father wakes up to find his daughter missing. Enters Silent Hill to find her.
The levels are interrupted by a short therapy session as you are relaying the events of the level to your therapist. Since you are playing as the father, it's assumed that it's the father in therapy.
Fast forward to the end, and it's revealed that the father died in the car accident and the short therapy sessions are actually of the daughter recounting the type of person you are. (The game takes note if you stare at sexual content or alcohol for an extended time).
The game then ends with another home video (depending on how you played).
Your daughter could have found a home video of her father cheating on her mom. She could have found a video of her father in a drunken abusive stupor. She could have found a video of her father being abused by her mother. She could have found a video of her parents getting divorced.
This game broke my heart because I'm a father of little girls and I do everything I can to be their hero and my heart broke seeing that little girl's happy childhood memories being replaced with pain and hurt.
Last of Us, first in the beginning, then by the end.
Come on how was Sly Cooper 2:Band of Theives left out? They literally spend 2 games building up the team can do anything. Then slam they get captured by Jean Bison, and it's a slow down hill horror show from there. I mean seeing the look in Murray's eyes holding Bently's broken ass, after prying him from clockla's jaws, was heart breaking. I mean a whole chunk of 3 is trying to pick up Murray since he just blames himself. Such a classic with an amazing story to thread through the amazing game play.
Telltale's The Walking Dead, Season One. The choice about what to do about Duck, the little boy. So incredibly difficult for me, as at the time of playing it, I had my newborn son sleeping on me.
Death Stranding was really good. Maybe you didn't like the implementation of the ideas, but the ideas were good. The fact that you made it to the end means it couldn't have been that terrible
Also that he says Cliff was because he saved him from going over a cliff is wrong. Cliff is Sams dad, just that means to me he never finished it.
@@psychodyke23 He seemed to imply he thought that running on the beach scene was the end of the game so that's plausible.
@@psychodyke23 Or that he didnt understand the full story even if if he finished the game.
The running on the beach scene he's on about is at like the end of Chapter 9, there's still a third of the game after that point. Still how do you get to that point and only then realise how batshit the plot has been?
Caleb Burnham I cant get through death stranding. I tried to give it a chance but idk it was just so disappointing imo. That game was hyped for over 3 years and to find out it’s basically just 40 hours of walking with one of the most convuluted stories I’ve ever seen just turned me off of it. Also another thing I didn’t like about was that there was way too much expositional dialogue. Seriously man throughout the entire game they never just showed us how the characters were feeling, in every situation they’d have the characters directly tell you in every single scene what their feeling which isn’t good storytelling. Sam would literally spout of pages and pages worth of dialogue reiterating how he’s feeling, what he’s done and what he’s about to do which is unnecessary because it already showed you all of that ugh it’s frustrating just thinking about it lol I’m prolly not doing a good job of explaining it but I hope you get what I’m trying to say
The Walking Dead Season 1. I haven't cried at a video game that hard before or since.
Except maybe FFX.
Walking Dead Season 1, burying the kid with his dog. It was a very sad moment, but at the same time the only good thing you can do in a situation like that.
Gears 2&3.... Dom finding and having to kill Maria. Then Dom calling out to Maria when he sacrifices himself for Delta Squad. I cry everytime
I will always SMH as to why to this day, after 20+ years of Metal Gear Solid, people still ignore the word Solid when addressing any Metal Gear Solid game.
To me it’s like saying Devil May 5.
The walking dead when lee died i just broke down
Agree but personally was worse that Kenny sacrifices himself if you refuse to let him drop AJ and you off at Wellington 😭
Games that broke my heart
Red dead 2 Arthur’s death
Walking dead Lee’s death
Spider-Man Aunt May’s death
Death stranding because of the emotional ending
A way out due to forcing you to turn on your partner.
@WhatCulture Gaming
The game that broke my heart... and there's three of them are as follows.
1. Medal of Honor: Rising Sun because they never finished the game and I am still waiting for a sequel that seems like be never happening.
2. Call of Duty: Ghost because again another damn cliff hanger. But rumor has it that Activision may be doing a sequel for the game but I am not holding my breath.
The final game and again it is a Call of Duty game so here we go...
3. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, I know that this game is hated by many people and fans alike and honestly I don't understand why, especially when you play story and side quest missions and knowing what happens at the end just broke my heart. I cried for a couple of hours because of how much I loved the characters.
It's between Telltale's The Walking Dead and The Last Of Us 😭😭 Walking Dead more with how many you lose regardless of pretty much all your choices. Though The Last Of Us still gets me too 😭
That one dislike was from Josh brown cuz Scott broke his heart in this video
Mass Effect Andromeda. It was supposed to be this awesome game of the year, return of one of the best game series ever. Instead it buried Bioware and my hopes and dreams along with it.
Yep pretty much caused me to divorce Bioware
I knew I liked Jules for a good reason. Tali was also my main crush in Mass Effect. She was the absolute best and I was determined to see underneath that mask.
When Telltale games closed.
Really cracked me.
Josh, I bow down to you. Both on Death Stranding and Uncharted 4 :)
To The Moon, all day, every day.
Scott's 180 on Death Stranding was a surprise.
if kojima was still at konami and he made death stranding there, nintendo probably would have pulled snake from smash bros ultimate for that joke.
Spiderman had one of the most hard wrenching endings with aunt may dying. She has been such a staple through every story and it was heartbreaking and a shock to see her die
Mgs 5 broke my heart with how they got rid of David Hayter and alienated all the characters
My son and I still talk about the death of Lee Everett. From the waking dead game.
Ah yes, The Waking Dead, my favourite sleeping sim
@@tyredmechanic290 😂 his death killed me
May he rest comfortably... In peace.
Red Dead Redemption 2 ending was such a huge plot twist to take in
there was no plot twist. it was just sad
What plot twist?
I agree with RDR2, but because of the inevitability of it, not because of any 'twist'. Once you get back from the island, it's one long, slow slide to your final fate. I LOVE the game, but could never play it again...not with the knowledge of how it ultimately ends. Even thinking about 'That's The Way It Is' can make me teary...listening to it can get me sobbing!
Valiant Hearts, when SPOILERS happens.
Our main character, when trying to protect his mates, gets killed by firing squad.
*Broke my heart the right way:* Spider-Man PS4
*Broke my heart the wrong way:* The Alice plot twist of Detroit: Become Human
Halo 4 "you must not leave this planet"....lost it. I love Cortana
mass effect games are one of best ever made(first three), and I was sad three times because of it, first in mass effect two when I lost my whole crew from mass effect 1 and when I reunited with liara before shadow broker dlc hahaha. Second two you probably laready know, end and andromeda hahahaha.
Watch just for Scott doing his nana.
Princess fuckin' Beach, man....
Hahahahahaha
Finished Brothers : A Tale of Two Sons recently and man that ending still doesnt seat right with me , the feels trip was just too much
the actual end where cliff unger reaveals him to the father and lousie and BBs death did make my heart to pieces
Agree with To The Moon, and That Dragon Cancer, absolutely bawled my eyes out. Second (and you may think 'you suck') when *"spoilers* Aunt May is dying and asks Spiderman to remove the mask so she could see her nephew.
Nearly 20 years on but the end of Fatal Frame 3: The Tormented still sticks with me. When Rei tells the ghost of Yuu "I just wanted to see you one more time." That and the Willie Nelson song in Red Dead 2. I knew John couldn't escape due to the events of Red Dead 1 but seeing John deal with being trapped in his violent life is a gut punch.
Assassins creed black flag is still to this day the only game to make me cry, seeing all of your friends that were killed, betrayed you and you killed them or passed on at a table having a fun time and the song that was being singed during it.
I feel Scott here. Followed this game avidly for 3 years. Loved the chase playing through this game. My only memory of the game?: “Princess Beach” *sigh*
Panzer Dragoon Orta, I don't want to spoil anything but it felt so isolated and a few scenes really packed a punch
Xenosaga II broke my heart by changing damn near everything about the first game and making what would've been a six-game series have to end on its third installment, a third installment that was another heart-breaker for the way it ended.
Little nightmares when you take a bite out of the boy
For me it was the ending of Final Fantasy XV that ending was really powerful and beautiful I just balled my eyes out cuz I loved all those characters
Solas broke my heart in Dragon Age Inquisition. I went through the whole romance, he did the thing for my elf girl (don't wanna spoil it for people) then shattered my heart into a thousand pieces. I sat there crying while watching the cutscene/conversation unfold as my (now ex) bf was sat next to me like "dude, I'm right here!" My reply? "HE BROKE MY HEART!"
Jules right as always. Tali is the best videogame girlfriend, and I screwed up in the games with some of her quests and she ended up killing herself in the 3rd. I literally screamed at the screen and immediately shut off the game. I went back a save and ended up saving her, but holy carp I was shook.
In one playthrough of Dragon Age origins where Loghain has to be executed for his crimes and his daughter Anora is vehemently trying to do anything to prevent this and he just turns to her and says 'Anora... it's over.' Emotional moment when the 'villain' is more concerned about his daughter's emotional state then his own demise.
The final mission in halo wars got me. Sergeant Forge sacrificing himself despite offers from the Spartans around him. He was my favorite character and I always played him online.
Games are supposed to be fun deathstranding looks like a chore
I feel like Death Stranding guy didn't finish the game, lol. Although the part he mentioned was cringey
That scene was terrible, no questioning that. But it was one small part in an otherwise great story, which it sounds like he didn't even finish. I've noticed over the years that Scott will hate pretty much any story that has any complication in the plot and isn't completely straightforward. The only exception is Metal Gear. I find it baffling that he hates all these other great games with the slightest amount of convolution but loves just that one, which is arguably the most convoluted series in gaming history.
its just his style, im used to it.
Oh.... Noted...
So I read this somewhere, and I've decided it's the only way that slow motion scene at the end of Death Stranding makes sense:
It's a reference to Lindsay Wagner's time playing the Bionic Woman, back in the 70's. Lindsay plays both Bridget and Amelie, and on the Bionic Woman (just like on the Six Million Dollar Man), every time she had to run REALLY REALLY FAST to rescue someone, they'd use slow motion to show she was using her powers.
It's a really oblique reference, but it's literally the only way I can get past it.
I loved the rest of the game SO MUCH that... I need this. I need to believe this.
Joel & Sarah... Sarah's out of nowhere and pointless death... AT THE BEGINNING OF THE FRICKIN' GAME!!! This scene turned me from a retired old fart to a gut-punched heart wrenched teary-eyed teenaged boy all over again! I had to stop playing for a few days before I went back to it. I can't imagine someone hurting and holding one of the kids while their life just goes away.
That dragon cancer just completely broke me...
I love Josh. He's always so entertaining and witty
Mine is definitely Gears 2 and 3, well, a character transition through both games. You see Dom going through this journey to finding his wife and near the end of the game, you do find her. But she's in a terrible state and near death. Dom first sees her in perfect condition but it's all a fantasy in his head and he sees how she is really like. He then drew his gun and the screen cuts away to Marcus standing somewhere else and you hear a gun shot. Dom ended his own wife's suffering after spending years on trying to find her.
Next game, he's a broken man and seems to only worry about his plants and stuff at the beginning of the third game. Once they discover the former humans, he sacrifices himself to kill the enemy horde and calls out to his wife. When that happened, my heart sank and my mouth hung open. Dom was easily my favorite character and to see him go out like that made me hurt inside.
FFX: Titus unmakes himself to spare Yuna.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Old Snake crawling through the microwave. Jack (Raiden) being reunited with his family. Big Boss death scene. Basically a third of that game is heartbreaking.
Mass Effect 3: Mordin's end
Infamous 2. Cole was my favorite gaming character at the time, and his good ending made me cry.
The cancellation of Hideo Kojima's original Metal Gear Solid Rising and turning it into Platinum Games' MGR:Revengeance broke my heart.
That game was dope I don’t see the issue Kojima made a bunch of metal gears go play his.
Why is Rach not in any of the Chatty Faces anymore???? I MISS RACH!!!!
NieR Automata. It was like an emotional torture simulation. Then in FFXIV when you run into 9S again, it called back all those emotions. Just heartbreaking
When they nerfed my ranger in wow after the cataclysm...Arrow volley was the ultimate spam.
I also got emotional over Mass Effect 3. I was just a sucker for the spectical of the moment fearing for the lives of the last remaining main characters as they speed away from the final explosion and the music Bairs dramatic music "An End Once and for All."
And the parts leading up to that point were of course impactful as well with the Leaving Earth scene!
The opening of The Last of Us when Joe lost his daughter, that completely tore me apart..😰 honestly I think that's why I love the game so much...
Joel
Lmao!! Josh was hilarious!! Totally made the video haha. My biggest heartbreak, no KOTOR 3. Not exactly a game, but lack of one...
WhatCulture Gaming broke my heart by spoiling death stranding from the thumbnail
She runs on a beach IN FUCKING HEELS.
He's called Cliff because his name is Clifford XD
The ending to shadow warrior 2013 broke my heart. I didn’t think a fun over top shooter would get me emotionally until I got to the end of the game and saw A story of heartbreak and betrayal.
Mgs3 broke my heart when I realised The Boss was hero all along 🥺🥺🥺
Yeah that's my most saddest gaming moment especially when you realize you're forced to do it no matter how long you wait
The good/secret ending in Code Vein. You worked your ass off and died countless times to restore everyone's lost memories and even collect the memories of the other attendants so Io (the mysterious girl you woke up to at the start of the game) to save everyone and teach Io how to make her own decissions and live her own life outside of her duty as an attendant, when you were about to take all off silvas relics onto yourself to keep the red mist up that surrounds the world to keep the monsters from the other side outside, she pushes you away takes EVERY relic and then sacrifices herself with a smile on her face by transforming into a large white tree that carries an infinite amount of blood beads AND keeps up the red mist. And the only things of her that she left were her necklace and a golden blood bead that allowed you to leave the mist. I actually cried for a good ten minutes because it was so sad and beatiful at the same time
