What's the most emotional experience you had in a video game? For me when I was playing Fallout: New Vegas and I was in the Nipton town hall and "Johnny Guitar" played on my radio. Having that sad song in the creepy building kind of made me scared and sad at the same time. And I admit I was almost going to cry when the song was about over.

I cried when I went 4-24 against a team of elite noobtubers on Modern Warfare 2... No, but I did think it was pretty funny.

I got kinda emotional during the whole FFXIII storyline though.

*When you have to play russian roulette in the cave and the beat the black guy in the back of the head with the pipe. was quite brutal and was just like, wow.*

I recognised that in other games, too!

When I was on my brother-in-laws account on World of Warcraft when Cata was live, I tried out some of the questlines and man. They are awesome!

And man! It's way more immersive than in BC or WotLK. I actually remember one part of the quests where you rescue a few orcs and you see one just sitting there with a blindfold. He gives you the quest telling you that he was kicked blind after protesting against the beating against one of his fellow prisoners. I'm not even "biased" towards Horde or Alliance but I immediately thought &quotrick," proceeded to the top of the tower, and sliced the blinders eyes out.
No really, that's the quest.


Also in Stonetalon Mountains - spoilers if you play WoW, I don't wanna ruin it.
Leading up from Azhara where you find Azharite and it is used to make a big-bada-bomb, you travel to Stonetalon, aiding where you are needed (with an epic Bioshock reference too). In the end of the questline you find one of the Holy-Cow's only son has been killed and in his anger (with his wife and you) you absolutely Pow the general. Later that village that housed the guy you helped is razed and burnt to the ground and his wife, dead. The quest objective simply states "Learn what it is to be Horde", the bomb (on a nicely done Hot-air Balloon) travels to a large tree, home to innocents of Cow-people and Elves alike. Boom.

Dead. You helped that happen, but it gets even better (emotionally) when the leader of leaders in your faction breaks the party, declares the generals dishonor (however indirectly) and proceeds to drop him off the cliff you saw the devestation.

He was gonna kill you, too. But the cow-person (they're named Tauren in the game, btw) had essentially begged for the leaders mercy, to spare your life. The leader, stunned at his kindness (considering the fact that his son died, village razed and wife murdered) had given some humble words to him and also directs you to the next zone.

That's what it is to be Horde. That - and amazing music in the backround.

Props to Blizzard's Music Team, get it right every time in Cataclysm

1. Red Dead Redemption. When John Marston worked so hard we did many missions together, i felt attached to him and by the end felt He had truly earned the right to go back to his family. I was copletely not execting the ending, and it felt really empty and sad after he was dead.... Also that his son was waling in his father's footsteps (which he barely knew), and that the Abigail died nearly put me in tears. Playing as Jack just didn't feel the same, with the voice cues and his posture and the lack of sick morning shadow...... I was devastated even after i stopped playing for the night.
Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts (PC) : I played through the original campaign on the 1st game and wasn't too affected (though i loved theWehrmacht one much more than the American), but I was very sad in the Panzer Lehr campaign when Deinhardt (the Officer dude you are playing as' brother) got mowed down by the HMG. It was a sad moment for me, and i made sure i killed every Brit on that map (including literally blowing the MG guy into a bloody collection of body parts w/ the Panzerjaeger), but it was still devastating.....
3. Bioshock 2: The ending.... just... Wow. I was so happeh to find the MC's daughter, but I got really pissed off and sad when she had to become a Big Sister just so we could escape. Judging on the suit, i assume the suit for the Big Sister is removable compared to the Big Daddy's? And i was like 'SWEET VICTORY!' when i saw whatsherface get drowned and stabbed (yes i know there are many alternate endings), but then was sad when your daughter had to watch you die, with the mental connection and longing and all; Overall it was a superb storyline, and i await with bated breath the next Bioshock (Bioshock: Infinite)

Jorge's death was actually kinda emotional. He blows himself up in that giant Covenant ship. But I think Carter's death is more serious. He crashes an entire Scarab and kills himself. I didnt cry, but it did shock me a little.

In GTA: IV when you have to choose between your brother or that girl. Then it has a cut-scene and one of them dies. I wasn't crying. It was just a shock that one of them died. I didn't expect that at all.

I agree that the death of the auditores was sad. Other than that i have a few. One of them is the nuke in Modern Warfare(in my opinion the best COD game) and also at the end of COD 4 when the main bad guy (i think he's called Imran Zhakaev) shot gaz while he was on the floor. After Captain Price slid the pistol to me I avenged Gaz my killing Imran(spelling?) first and then his guards.

Wow long post.
