For me, it was Princess Rosalina’s backstory in Super Mario Galaxy.

Puuuh, a fair few over the years.

  • Same one as you, Rosalina's backstory made me tear up a little bit. It was really really well done, and so unexpected in a Mario game of all places.
  • When first reading through Katawa Shoujo, Shizune's path (botched as it is) still hit me really hard with Misha being an aside that can't fit in, then later Rin's neutral ending also got me really bad.
  • Teenage me at the end of disc 1 of FF7, of course.
  • The ending of Signalis just recently.

And probably a lot more. FFXIV has a lot of sad and emotional moments, although none of them hit me quite as hard as some other games did.
