Death Stranding

Papers, Please. Maybe not crying, but could definitely put you into a depressed mood if you manage to get into character. Needing to make a choice between letting some poor bastard's wife follow him without proper papers and feeding your family is tough.

Haven't actually played it yet but a video about MOTHER 3 made me cry just talking about the story (not only that but the part where he talked about the story made me a little emotional)

Here is the video btw

You may already know it but Omori was heavily inspired by the mother series and especially Mother 3: https://twitter.com/_omocat/status/1384687971929006080

Persona 4 Golden is a beautiful game that made me emotional more than once.

Cyberpunk 2077 and Horizon Zero Dawn are both fantastic games with an emotional storyline.

Mother 3 got me tearing up when I first played it

Have you played Plague Tale 1 and 2? I'm not considered a very emotional person, but the dynamic really got to me. Just a really solid game, enjoyable combat. They're two of the very few games I binged to completion.

That Dragon, Cancer. Part game, part visual novel.

Lisa: the Painful

I dont know if its listed here yet.

It was short and sweet but Planet of Lana got me in the feels a little bit.

The most recent one to make me cry was...

"I Was a Teenage Exocolonist"

Portal 2. But you should play the first part before sequel, if you haven't already.

Last Day of June was also a lovely and emotional experience for me. I hope you'll enjoy it as well!

They probably aren't your cup of tea but thought I'd add some more variety.

Final Fantasy XIV; an mmo with focus on story and the story arc from the past 9 years is wrapped up and brought me lots of tears.

Honkai Impact 3rd; ARPG gacha game (I know, I was skeptical) also with years of story following a relatively small cast of characters.

Probably gonna get hate for it but I'm a man in my 40's and some of the Genshin Impact story lines have left me in tears.

Yakuza Zero has a story that is excellent, albeit goofy at times. In the end, it got me good.

One I've not seen mentioned but made me bawl my eyes out is 'Presentable Liberty' Im not sure about the remake, but the original was pretty short and was gripping, despite the low level of action.

Final Fantasy X.
