Does anybody else get overly emotional when playing videogames, or am I an enormous weirdo.

[Migoto-Megami]

No, you're not. I cried at the ending of FFX.

[Vyk]

I haven't beaten the game. But I think I have watched a lot of the ending. Watching Tidus break down does kinda get to you. But then I remembered how much of a wussy cry baby I think he is... >_>; No offense. He's just a little TOO emotional sometimes. Kinda takes away from the moments. But yeah. Certain games have brought a tear to me eye. Some of the Phantasy Stars come to mind. And of course other Final Fantasies.

[Cruise Control]

In X-2 I cried when I killed the Aeons...
I got emotionally attached to them.
I also cried during th ending of X

[fire_of_avalon]

I feel you. I get emotionally involved in video games, but I don't know which makes me cry more; the what actually happens in the game, or the fact that it's over.

But yeah. The death of Jecht. is where I started to get misty eyed, and then defeating my Aeons, one by one made it worse. By the time Yuna performed the final FINAL sending and Auron left. it was all over for my composure. xD

[sephiroth JR]

no, i now have an obsession with swords because of ff7 i have the buster sword,masamune,and various others

When the aeons were destroyed , I would have been upset, but it was like OH MY GOD. This is THE most boring boss/es I have EVER faced. You should have been able to die, already!

[Cruise Control]

Why were the aeons so easy to beat anyway, like Remiem Temples version of Bahamut in FFX.
All it did was sit there and think angry thought counting down to overdrive, while you hack away at it.

[Spammerman]

IF getting mad at videogame characters counts as overemotional, ive been there.IN blitzball, i could have a shot of 30 and the cathcher hads 25, when i shot it it went there 27 and he caught it/.

[Cruise Control]

TRhat counts to, like Yunalesca. Thinking about Yunalesca makes me want to slam my head through my tv screen.*ow... my head* OK Im better now

[TurkSlayer]

I get emotional aswell. When sad things happen, I become deeply saddened. Also, when characters do stupid things, I have a tendency to yell at them.

[rubah]

I cry at ffx's ending. Every. time.

even if I'm just randomly fighting the last bosses for fun, to see how much I can pwnze them.

[kikimm]

Yeah, that's pretty much me too. I probably get too attatched for my own good, but I don't care. If it's an excellent story, with great characters to go along with it, it's hard not to be. It's just like a book, where I don't feel stupid at all if I cry.

Besides, FFX's ending....I don't see how you could not cry, or get at least a little bit emotional. I cried SO much. My god. But it was seriously perfect. And that's one of the reasons I despise X-2. Fun game, but I despise it. Although that's a different topic. =D


:D

[CaptRory]

When I watch a movie or the television, I feel as if I am an observer. When I am reading a book or playing a game I feel as if I am part of the story. I become attached to the characters. When good things happen to them I'm happy. When bad things happen to them I'm sad. After finishing FFX I ran out the next day and got X-2 just so I could hope for an ending where Tidus is ressurected and reunited with Yuna.

[fire_of_avalon]

OH GOD I READ THE SPOILER.

*falls down*

[Vyk]

Was there really any question?

[CaptRory]

Oh sure mock me. Just because a thing is common knowledge doesn't mean everyone knows it. I have FF7 sitting in my room waiting for me when I finish 5 and 6 and one major surprise has allready been ruined for me.

[Skytiger92]

I haven't beat the game yet. But I do get emotional at the end of a book series. It may be because I know it's over or that the endings are usually sad.... dunno.

[Y-Rikku-P]

A lot of things happened in FFX that got me going everyone agrees about the end butwhat about when Symour kills the ronso, auron dies, when they kiss in macalania.... omg the memories

[Shauna]

I cried, a lot during the ending of FFX. Not so much as when I killed the Aeons, I beat most of them with Spare Change, but when my sister started crying when Auron got sent I started to cry. But the bit that really got me was when Yuna fell through Tidus It was so sad. I cried all the way through the credits, then for like 5 mins after the 'The End' screen came up. :cry: :cry: :cry:

[Vyk]

That... sucks. I feel your pain there. I found out from some stupid website talking about who cloud should be with. The webmaster was female and hated both girls, but figured he should kill himself and go with her on the other side, as the lesser of two evils. But actually SEEING the scene the first time... It mattered not that I knew it was coming. The experience was still astounding. Unless you've already watched the scene. In which case I really pity you x_x;;

[Sphere]

I found X particularly sad, because of the ending. So yeah, I guess I too become emotionally attatched. I need to play Phantasy Star... *Runs off to video game store* ^_^

Well, I will probably get it... right now I still have FFV (half way through) and FFTA (1/4 through) to go...So it will have to be sometime after that.

I haven't seen it yet. Though from prior experience I know that forehand knowledge of a thing will soften the impact of a surprise. And of course, I won't remember what I had for breakfast or the password for something or that I promised to do something at a certain time, but I'll never forget a spoiler I'm trying to erase from my memory.

I'm trying to think of a way to bring this post back on topic...

Ok:
I just reached the scene in FFV where Galuf dies to rescue Krile. I knew it was going to happen but the scene itself still touched me. I just become attached to the characters in games and books, and when someone is killed off or ressurected or does something stupid or selfless I feel for them.

The personal attachment towards characters is what really sets ff apart from everything else.

[Vyk]

You're right... Unfortunately, with each installment I grow less and less attached T_T I wish I could bring back those feelings.

[DMKA]

The ending of FFX made me cry like a little girl who just fell down and skinned her knees. And I was 17 at the time. It doesn't really manage to make me cry anymore (did about the first 20 times though), but when Yuna says "Never forget them." I still come pretty close.

17....damn, is FFX really that old?

[BackRoomKid]

this is the only game that has got my emotions involved...seriously takes a lot for me to get that itchy feeling in my eyes

it was just that part...yuna and tidus...the "attempted" embrase Yuna needed....holy crap...that killed me, I didn't cry, BUT...i was just in shock...couldn't believe that was the end of the journey, after all that...Yuna couldn't get that last touch....but after the credits ruled and I stared at "THE END" sign for five minutes...i fell in love with the game...so awesome

[UltimateSpamGrover]

The ending of FFX was a little sad, but not enough to make me cry.

[Armisael]

No, you're not. I cried at the ending of FFX.

[caramel_kitty]

omg i get SO emotional during the live scenes in FF9 after each disk!!!and i hate myself for going to this website cuz now i know that spoiler: tidus will die and so will a couple other people in FF10 and im only on my way out of besaid village!!!!! :(

[Mercen-X]

or am I an enormous weirdo.
Indeed. :D

But actually SEEING the scene the first time... It mattered not that I knew it was coming. The experience was still astounding.
That's how I feel. It doesn't matter if I've been told everything about something before I experience. You can't actually know all the good and bad and how totally awesome something really is until you experience it first hand.
By the way, never take someone's word when they're talking like they're in a daze like, "hehe . . . hey . . . man . . . , . . . this is great . . . hehe . . . you should like . . . try it"
