Max Payne 2 Ending. Still hits like a brick.
I disagree, it worked for me feeling Joel’s grief, not because I had a particular attachment to her as a character.It didn’t hit me at all since I’ve barely got to know her, right at the start. You have to develop a character throughout the game for that stuff to have real impact. Like FF X ending for example.
So what games caught you off guard and made you shed a tear or filled you with sadness? for me it's really rare but these games got me.
-Yakuza 0
What a great game and a great story, if you didn't play it then stop reading immediately and go play it. the story have a lot of sad moments but the saddest for me was Tachibana's Death just moments before meeting his sister Makoto.
Makoto suffered from slavery, rape, blindness and the only thing that kept her strong was the hope of meeting her brother but she met him a few moments after his death
That was a touching moment, sure. But even in that game, there's an even more touching (borderline "sad") moment in the epilogue.
In the video below:
First, fast-forward to about 12:50 and see the way the two characters look at each other. If you have played the game, you know there's something behind that look. Probably the most touching part though is at around the 17:20 mark when he starts fading into the crowd. Notice what she says. Damn.
Also, I'm sure it has been said here many times, but -- the "prologue" (if it's even called that) in The Last of Us. I think everybody knows what happens there.

I had a tear in my eye at the end of Rime for sure....anyone with kids who has played that game will know what I mean.
Agreed. I can count on 1 hand how many times the story or performance of a game made me sad or feel a long range of emotions.No game has ever made me feel sad.
In fact, TLOU 2 is literally the only game where I even felt any emotion at all.
The medium has a LONG way to go.
It can be seen as sad or as happy.The ending of SOMA, if you know you know.
Took me awhile to press square.MGS3 ending.
