Also, anyone who doesn't get a little teary when (SPOILER)Lirum (Lost Odyssey) dies in front of her sobbing children and father is emotionally dead.
quite possibly the saddest moment in any game ever....the flute playing boy from Link to the past. that was the first time I ever really getting watery in my eyes from a game:(
Flute-playing Boy - Zeldapedia, The Legend of Zelda wiki - Twilight Princess, Ocarina of Time, Spirit Tracks, and more
(SPOILER)in Zelda: A link to the past, you meet a man in kakariko village, who tells you of his son who used to play the flute on a stump in the haunted grove to the animals. his son went to search for the "golden land" one day and never returned. if you go to the haunted grove, you can hear him playing and see the animals around him but as soon as you approach he disappears into thin air.
later in the game, when you get into the "dark world", you find him in the dark world"s haunted grove as a disfigured creature. he tells you that when he went searching for the golden land, he was trapped in this world and turned into this hideous creature. he also ask you to find his flute that he so loved to play (which is buried in a section of the haunted grove). when you find it, he will tell you he yearns to hear it play one more time, and as you play it for him, his cares are released, he slowly transforms into an inanimate tree like figure.
later, you can take the flute to the father and play it for him, and he will say that he recognizes that flute and ask you where is his son. he reads your sad face and realizes what happens and asked you to keep the flute, because he knows that is what his son would want. (when you beat the game, link wishes for the world to return to before this all happened and you see the boy again, but still very sad.
that was so sad to me, especially as a young kid and I felt so bad for the dad. remember almost balling like a little girl but my older brother picking on me so I didnt:p
Oh wow. That reminds me of (SPOILER)the Deku Scrub that died in Majora's Mask when Link was turned into one at the beginning of the game. I remember the father?/master of the Deku Scrub is seen finding him at the end of the game montage
For some reason, talking about the Ocarina kid just reminds me of the Jumi tribe from Legend of Mana... God that was a rather disturbing story... I don't know why it reminds me of it but it does, maybe because of the ending concerning the 'fate of those who cry for the Jumi"
The genophage in Mass Effect is pretty smurfed up! I feel bad for the krogan. (SPOILER)Especially Wrex - I didn't want to kill him ; - ;. Actually, all the Mass Effect deaths are pretty sad. Especially the ones you have to chose between ¬_¬
Rabbits: You didn't have to kill him. =x
It has to be said.
Aerith, yep I said it. I almost came to tears when I saw that esp with the speech and the music, very moving imo.
I would post more but I feel Aerith deserves a whole post of her own.
Aerith never did it for me, Galuf on the otherhand, THAT was a death to be remembered, he went out like a badass.
Though I didnt cry over his death, I cried at what I got as a replacement.
Really? I thought of SH:C when I saw this thread, but my immediate thought was the (SPOILER)death of Alice. It was such a beautifully done scene and watching her die in the presence of Yuri after being alive again for mere moments was terribly sad.
