A Sad Gaming Moment for Me *SPOILER ALERT*

A Sad Gaming Moment for Me SPOILER ALERT

Spoiler Alert, if you have never beaten Legend of Dragoon for PSX I suggest you avoid reading this if you don't want any of the story given away.

I was recently replaying Legend of Dragoon, as some of you know I record and post it on youtube with commentary for a "Let's Play" channel. I'm currently miles ahead of where I left off on youtube and will get back to posting videos ASAP. But I thought I would share this moment with you, that to this day, brings me to tears.

I was journeying through the game as normal and I came to the saddest moment I've ever had in a video game. Lavitz, my dear friend and trusted comrade, was killed before my very eyes by the ultimate baddie in the LoD game.

I can remember the first time I witnessed this and the frustration I felt and having the only support character (at that time) that I really connected to. Lavitz gave off a sense of honor you don't get anywhere else in the game, he was the perfect best friend and right hand man, he always seemed like he'd lay his life down for you at any moment and in an instant he did just that.

I also remember that the first time this happened for me in the game, I had complete disdain for Lavitz's replacement they bring in later in the game. Nowadays I've grown accustomed to the replacement, Albert's, prescense but I must say it still feels like there's a huge hole in the team without Lavitz there.

SO have you guys ever had a video game moment that actually saddened you? What about one that made you angry?

That right there was also my saddest gaming moment, and I had the same feeling toward Albert that you did. And I felt bad for Lavitz's mother, too.

It was crazy. I was actually upset like real life, turned red clinched my fists, whole nine yards.

It has been a while, but I think that kingdom hearts made me angry and sad at the same time. I think that i will need to pull out my ps2 shortly.

His was such a noble death. Far more moving than Aeris' death if you ask me. I liked King Albert and I thought the replacement was actually suitable storywise. However, the notion of "replacing" a character immediately after the character died did kind of irk me. They did the same thing when Shana gets kidnapped even though I liked Miranda better.

Lavitz was my favorite character from the game and he's the first to die lol. It never set well with me, I found myself purposefully letting Albert go down in battle just because I couldn't stand that he was suppose to replace my best friend.

I got attached to Nei in Phantasy Star 2. Her death totally took me by surprise. It sucked because I sort of had an immature geek crush on her at the time.
