    I knew Sarah was coming but it still hurt. A suggestion from me for this list is Yuriko from Ghost Of Tsushima. A sweet old lady and long time maid to the Sakai clan, she began to develop dementia, forgetting basic things and even mistaking Jin for his father. In her last moments Jin pretends to be his father to comfort Yuriko, and also I believe says a haiku. When he's done, Yuriko has passed. I shed a tear here, not just for Yuriko passing, but also as I related as my grandad has dementia. He is still alive thankfully, but him being in his condition hurts to see.

    • @rayward1998
      @rayward1998 2 роки тому

      Ah yes, this is sad but I don’t feel like it’s so sad in the grand scheme of things. It’s the cycle, we all grow old and die eventually, it’s the one’s who should’ve had more time where we really feel that sadness. I’d say there was more beauty and peace in Yuriko’s death than sadness. Of course that’s not to say your feelings are false or misplaced in any way. We all feel differently about things, that’s why we went into the comment section to share our opinions or see others opinions.

  • @Phanthief95
    @Phanthief95 2 роки тому +49

    Some honorable mentions I have to give for this:
    - Brok (God of War Rangarok): Brok was a fan favorite in the Norse games & we were as hurt as Sindri was when Odin killed him. What’s even worse is that Brok is gone completely, meaning there’s no afterlife for him. Because of him dying once before & Sindri reviving him but missing a piece of his soul, there was no afterlife for him if he died.
    - Yoko Sawa (Lost Judgment): What makes her death sad is that she was completely innocent. She bears some guilt over Toshiro Ehara’s suicide for not speaking up for him about the bullying he endured, but she was killed by Soma just for knowing Kuwana.
    - Taka (Ghost of Tsushima): Taka was a really good friend to Jin during his journey to free Tsushima from the Mongols, but seeing Khotun Khan beheading him was brutal, especially when he & his sister Yuna were going to leave the island.
    - Cole Phelps (LA Noire): He died saving Jack & Elsa & it made me mad seeing that punkass Roy Earle talking about him at his funeral.
    - The entire Finch family (What Remains of Edith Finch): Let me run through the list: One dies from eating poisonous berries & toothpaste because she didn’t have anything to eat, one dies from a home invasion, one dies from launching himself off a swing over a cliff, one dies from being hit by a train, one dies drowning in the bathtub, one dies from being bucked off a cliff by a deer, one dies from a totem pole falling on him, one dies from a construction accident, one commits suicide, & Edith herself dies giving birth to her son.

    Before I explain, just letting you guys know it's been awhile since I last commented on of your videos due to having a busy life, but I'm back. It is top 3 easily for me but I wasn't sure about the order, however, I remember how awful Sarah's death because she is just a child and the way she holds dear to her dad makes it even more sadder and I her's worse than Aerith's and Lee Everett's. The ending of the walking dead season 1 was sad enough, however, I find the ending of season 2 sadder than the first because of not only losing friends/allies but also departing ways from each other.

    One honorable mention; M/Mio of ‘Xenoblade 3’. I got so emotional when she was reaching the end of her lifespan, and that all the other heroes could do was sit in a cell next to hers, and wait for the day when her passing would take place. The emotions from Noah were especially gut-wrenching. Hats off to the voice actor for making me connect with his emotions. SPOILER ALERT DOWN BELOW
    I was incredibly relieved when it turns out it was M who swapped souls with Mio, taking her place so she could finally die. However, this still was sad, as it was N who now grieved in agony after losing her.

    No one talks about the deaths of Leo or Vincent in a way out they deserve to be on a list. basically long story short 2 guys Leo and Vincent went to prison Leo went in for robbing a diamond called the black orlav I think. Vincent apparently got framed for killing his brother. His brother got killed by this guy (Harvey) who also helped Leo rob the black orlav. They escape and plan to get revenge to kill Harvey together. after they kill Harvey they plan to go to their families and live their lives. Harvey was in Mexico so they took a plane there and back btw. When they got off the plane it was surrounded by police then a police chief goes up to Vincent hands him a gun and says good job it then reveals that when Leo and Harvey went to sell the diamond to this guy (who was Vincent’s brother) Harvey killed him. It was revealed earlier that Harvey betrayed Leo and left him behind but never revealed the Vincent and his brother were undercover cops until now. Leo got knocked out when Harvey hit him with his car that’s when Leo got arrested as Vincent and other cops were listening to what happened when Harvey killed Vincent’s brother so they ran in and arrested Leo. Leo is obviously pissed and takes Vincent’s gun and holds him hostage they get in a car and Leo drives away with Vincent they crash and Leo gets in a boat while the pilot of a police helicopter lands to pick up Vincent. Vincent shoots the boat trying to destroy it ( it doesn’t matter if he does or doesn’t). They fight and after awhile of Vincent and Leo shooting each other they fight over a gun. Whoever gets the gun wins. If Leo gets the gun Vincent tells him to take a note to Vincent’s wife Leo gives the note and how to his family to probably leave America. While after a couple days I think they have a funeral for Vincent and do the 21 gun salute. If Vincent gets the gun he shoots leopard killing him after a minute. He goes to tell leos wife and son when he’s done he goes back to his wife and quits being a cop to love his life with her and that’s the end.

    Dom's death always gets me. My first introduction to the Gears of War series was playing co-op at a friend's house so I ended up playing as Dom more often than not. Even though Marcus's badassery was a great characterization for him, Dom just felt more personal to me.
    John Marston's death is another one that always gets me, as does Arthur Morgan's in RDRII. Even before he died, the moment where Arthur is sitting with the nun at the train station and tells her he's afraid was another painful moment that showed how broken and tired he had become.
    Lee's death in The Walking Dead hurt. He did everything he could to keep Clem safe and in the end, it cost him everything. I could never just leave him to his fate. I always had Clem shoot him.
    Another death that really hurt me was Cortana in Halo 4 (before anyone says she didn't die, technically she did. The Cortana we personally knew died saving Chief and a new different Cortana was reborn after she found the cure for AI rampancy.) It was one of the few times when we actually saw a break in Chief's hardened demeanor. Cortana had questioned him about being a machine and in the end, there was a moment where he couldn't even look at her, his voice actually breaking slightly. No matter how many times I play through Halo 4, Cortana 'death' will always get me.

    Hawke's possible death (I've never been able to choose the option, to be honest, watched it back on youtube) in DA: Inquisition becomes heartbreaking when you talk to his/her (and the Inquisitor's, by this point) friend Varric about it. The dwarven storyteller waxes poetic about an apropriate memory (depending on what personality your personal Hawke had in your playthrough of DA:2) before breaking down and needing a hug
    To be fair, Stroud and Loghain sacrificing themselves make far less of an impact. The same might be said for some players in regards to Alistair, the fourth(!) possible NPC that might present themselves in that scenario (for the laypeople: DA:I has a system which imports your choices from the previous games, resulting in mostly slight but sometimes fairly significant changes to the story)

    Top 10 are
    10: Egil (Xenoblade Cronicles) All he wanted was revenge against the destruction of his home thanks to Zanzea. His death hit hard for me.
    9: Charles (Henry Stickman) He was a funny character and his death was the hardest since he couldn't escape and even Henry mourns
    8: Hinawa (Mother 3) Shocked nobody mentioned her, her death start Lucas's depression and not only that it was over all sad to hear the bad news.
    7: Rueben (Minecraft story mode) He was my favorite pig with so much personality. :( He sacrificed himself to help Jesse.
    6: Soap (Cod Modern Warfare 3) Protagonist since cod 4 and he was the saddest cod death since Elias (ghosts) and Ethan (Infinite warfare)
    5: Baby Metroid (Super Metroid) A cute child that nearly killed Samus and sacrificed itself to save Samus against Mother Brain.
    4: Ethan Winters (Resident Evil Village) He was a caring father who didn't need to die twice.
    3: General Leo (Final Fantasy 6) He was a chill dude who didn't want to waste lives and reminded them they were regular human beings.
    2: Mipha (Breath of the Wild) She loved Link so why not, and not only that her death may not have been onscreen but her death hurt me cause she is my favorite champion and her theme is sad
    1: Jaro Tapal (Jedi Fallen Order) Jaro hurt me hard because of the jedi purge and his death influenced Cal's journey to move through his past.

Every time I play that scene, my motivation to kick the backsides of Saïx, Luxord, Xigbar and especially Xemnas rises another 10 notches. So as sad as his sacrifice is, it makes the endgame and the defeat of the Original Organization XIII all the sweeter for me.
