I rarely cry, but getting choked up is pretty much the same for me, emotionally at least. I'm an empathetic being, so some scenes affect me more because I imagine the burden and suffering indicated than what is actually shown directly.
- Horizon Zero Dawn - the big revelation and what it meant to those going up against nothing but total eradication
- Detroit: Become Human - it's literally engineered to hurt you, just like...
- Beyond: Two Souls - Yeah, this one borders at being a "cruel life simulator"
- The Witcher 3 - it's worst ending feels so incredibly close to how I felt when I was suicidal, total inner nothingness that's just waiting to die
Those were pretty understandable, but how about this one...
- Final Fantasy XIII-2 - Not only is the ending a cliffhanger and gets it it's message of inevitability across by spitting you in the face, but it ALSO does it in one of the heaviest and most brutal tonal shifts I have ever experienced and my god, it made me cry out of sheer anger and frustration
