Portal 1 where you find Ratman’s hideouts. It was amazing environmental storytelling that a newbie player like myself back then could’ve easily missed. Felt like playing the friggin cave allegory. I was obsessed with that game. So amazing.
I have not played this game and I
rememberknow this scene.
Arthur’s death scene in red dead redemption hit me so hard, even though I knew it was coming. The music, the build up. I was already a mess losing my horse. It was brutal and amazing, and now I play this game at least once every year.
A screenshot doesn’t really help; a transcript is better
Canderous Ordo: Carth, you fought in the Mandalorian Wars, didn’t you? We may have faced each other in combat. What battles were you in?
Carth Onasi: I try not to think about my past battles too much. The horrors of war are something I’d rather not relive.
Canderous Ordo: The horrors of war? My people know only the glory of battle. I’m disappointed in you, Carth. I thought a warrior like you could understand.
Carth Onasi: I’m not a warrior, I’m a soldier. There’s a difference. Warriors attack and conquer, they prey on the weak. Soldiers defend and protect the innocent — mostly from warriors.
I will never not upvote KotOR
Walking around trying to stay on the blood trail while listening to that baby cry was something …
I was too little for this moment.
I don’t have a screenshot handy, but I still vividly remember Fallout 3 stepping out of Vault 101 for the first time and feeling the awe of talking my first steps into a fresh new world and also immediately afterwards seeing how destroyed it really is.
A little one I’ll neve forget is playing Jedi Outcast and you’re doing battle with the 2nd in charge, Tavion. Keep in mind I was high af playing this, but after you defeat her you’re holding her up and force choking her off the side of Cloud City. And she starts singing like a canary. The part that hit hard (again stoned out of my mind) was the person who was hell bent on killing you and leading to darkness which could cause the deaths of thousands and subjugation of millions says…because I’m not brave enough to die!
As a vanilla WoW player, I will never forget getting coming to the front gates of Stormwind for the first time and being in awe of it.
Always hated that playing as Horde none of the big cities were as beautiful as SW. Not even the blood elf one IMO. Stormwind felt more significant than any other capital
You didn’t say it had to be a pleasant memory…
This is the one NES game I haven’t replayed as an adult. That god damned seaweed… The whole thing is a slog.
You’re a slog /s
Oh fuck! If only you had a picture of the damn bombs.
Have to get there without getting insta-killed first…
