Many times, but the one that got me more than any other game really surprised me: Insomniac’s Spiderman 2. Specifically the pidgeon side quest. I don’t think I’ve ever had another experience where I actually had to put the controller down for 5 minutes to stop sobbing. it was just… so beautiful but so heartbreaking…
It’s not even the saddest scene in any video game I’ve played, but I think something about swinging around, beating up bad guys, and then suddenly getting hit with this deeply personal and very real scene broke me. I strongly recommend this game if you have a ps5.
Me too. But I’ll just note, I think you have to have played the first Spiderman game and Miles Morales to really get it. It needs that emotional build up over time.
