My favorite games are Omori, Disco Elysium and Outer Wilds. I cried for hours at the end of those games, and I think the common point in them is high-quality emotional writing and stellar OST (music really affect me) and my attachment to the characters.
I also found that my taste in movies was similar (Hana-bi by Takeshi Kitano is my favorite movie)
I’ve been trying to find something similar, so has anybody any recommendation?
I’d like to add that I basically hated Nier Automata (way too pretentious imo) and Before your Eyes (I wasn’t a fan of the game concept, and found the story pretty weak), and really loved the horror aspects of Omori.
I also heard about To the moon, but games talking about disease are hard for me to enjoy
It’s a long game, but Xenoblade Chronicles 3 messed me up in all the right ways. Especially if music moves you, I recommend it. Mostly standalone too, if you didn’t play the other 2 main games.
This game has very powerful moments.
Unfortunately I think I kinda got spoiled a few months ago… But I’ll consider it
Not sure what part exactly was spoiled to you, but I’d be surprised if it can ruin the emotional impact.
There is one twist I will not reveal that I can see might take a bit out of it, but I am not sure how you’d encounter such a specific story beat in isolation. Not convinced even that would completely spoil it too.
