God of War Standing with Atreus on the mountain at the end of the game after all of the struggle and turmoil you’ve endured together, just for a moment of peace and healing for you both… I love a good sad dad!
Rimworld Staring down the jaws of defeat, my entire colony decimated by raiders, and a lone woman surviving to carry on– and then, a Man in Black arrives just as I thought I had failed! They didn’t survive much longer, but knowing the devs had thought to extend a moment of grace in the brutal world they created was magical.
The Last of Us Nothing has ever hit quite so hard as Joel’s rampage through the hospital to save Ellie. Holding her so tenderly in his arms after slaughtering dozens of soldiers and shirking all of his ethical duty to humanity– like I said, I love a good sad dad!
