This came up in another thread but I was curious to see how apparent this is, but do sad or extremely emotional scenes move you either to tears, joy or indignation?
Are you easily moved by sad or happy events in games?

True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
Yes, I get emotional and cry very easily at sad scenes. Even when I see them coming and when in hindsight they aren't that sad.
Not particularly. Mostly because men don't cry etc.
I feel upset for some of these scenes, but i think I'm more upset when I accidentally sell a good bit of equipment or game over unexpectedly.
Yes, as with everything.
Yeah I am. The most extreme examples for me would be "After Story" from Clannad, "Tomoyo After After" from Tomoyo After and "Refrain" from Little Busters!, all these had my emotions in the palm of their tiny hand. Subsequently, they are my absolute favorite plot arcs in general.
I think the first game storyline that moved me to tears was Final Fantasy X, the ending, when I rediscovered it and came to love it in my early teens.
Almost never. It takes something particularly exceptional to so much as crack my stoicism and gruff exterior.
Not really, no.
Movies get to me but games usually don't.
Not easily, but when they do it hits me pretty hard. Some older games have moments that while I recognized they were sad, I didn't really react to them until I was older and understood the weight of a sad scene.
The Walking Dead by Telltale really got to me, though. Nearly as much as the movie version as The Road did.
Yeah, if i'm attached to a character. Bonus points if you get this without explanation
Not that often anymore. I get much more moved by books, as I treat them as a more personal experience, and yet I still probably play more games than I read books, which is incredibly sad. Though I probably get just as moved with games as I do with movies. It takes really mature and layered storytelling and incredibly gripping characters to actually get me to tear up. Tactics Ogre is doing this to me lately. Still, I do get hella invested in video games and their characters, just not to the point that I can cry anymore

I can't think of an instance where I actually cried during a game. Like Pike, they don't get me the same way movies do. We'll see if The Last of Us will end the streak
I've never cried at a game or TV show but Beyond: Two souls got me close to it on a few occasions.
Ride ze shoopuff
Beyond: Two Souls is quite the experience. I loved it.
FFIX has been choking me up a lot this playthrough.
Both of those are perfect examples of gripping storytelling.
