No, he's not. I played through FF10 for the first time last year and even though I knew exactly what was going to happen I still cried a little.

i've cried from anime deaths, i cried once from a movie death (mufasa when i was like 6), but i have never cried from a video game death. its because death in games is meaningless - you die hundreds of times in many games and kill for greater than that number by the end of the game, so the permanence of the characters lives means little to nothing.

that being said, i've cried from joy playing games at least once - the end of okami got me good last time i beat it

>crying from characters dying in the moving pictures either

lmao actors are chosen based on brand power and how much they look like the character in the novel they're badly adapting

>>382601928
name a death you cried over so we can laugh at you

>>382601928
>a good movie
No such thing, literally inferior to theater in every way.

What makes crying over one fake person dying more acceptable than crying over another fake person dying?

no matter how hard they try they can never actually rise above pic related

The problem with video game adaptations is that Hollywood doesn't take it serious from the get go, so it rarely stands a chance.

They either try to do a straight conversion, like aping Residents Evil Curraazzy style from RE4 onwards in the movies. In fairness that does often make those movies so bad that they're good.

Then we have the recent Ass Creed movie, like why didn't they just make it about a dude fighting the templars? They really didn't need all that animus shit to clog up the story. Make it simple and build outwards from there.

The other problem that can happen is studios just throwing any shit together and slapping it with the video game licence. Think of the Mario Bros movie, the later Mortal Kombat movies, or anything by Uve Boll.

They don't understand the material, that's the common thread with all game to movie conversions so far, in my opinion.

black man here, it's possible to have emotions and not be a sissy.

>>382605035
To Uwe Boll's credit, I've heard that his Postal movie was everything a Postal movie should be, for better or for worse.

John Marston is the only recent videogame death I can think of that had a strong emotional impact in general. It was done pretty well.

There are other games that are pretty emotional but they tend to not have much in the way of mechanics. (Telltale style, walking sim, etc.)

I believe I got emotional at the end of skies of Arcadia, it ended exactly how I wanted it to and it was fantastic
>>382606846

>>382606830
No, I watched him die in my arms

>>382605749
watch it. not only is it uwe bolls "best" movie.
its actually a legit good movie.
its classics tier easily. it has memorable qotes, great characters, vern troyer and great humor you might not actually notice at first glance.

>>382606897
Ah man. Lee was my boy. That shit was tough.

Even when he got bit, I made the decision to cut off the arm, and I legit thought Lee would be fine.

Walking Dead did a fantastic job making me care about the guy.
