Depression huh? I'll give you an odd suggestion;

Lost Oddysey

But there's a catch. You can't be illiterate, and take the time and read the little poems/stories you find. Some of them are legitimately sadness-inducing and incredibly well done.

I had my wife play the game for a few hours and she was crying at the first memory/poem you come across. Never wanted to play it again.

Go ahead, try it.
And no, it's not 'scary'. You asked for depressing.

The explanation is the game is trash.

The Legend Skyrim Breath of The Wild Hunt.
>>
>>383869246
>>383869520

It's actually a really good scene but the game didn't earn it and after hours of trite trash a lot of players probably hadn't had themselves open for it, as the cynicism bred by having waited nearly a decade for it only for it to feel like a third of a full game with most of the time spent playing being driving and loading screens, and all the things that were shown years and years earlier were taken out and put into the crappy CGI movie.

>>383869680
Yeah do this, they'll be waiting for you to come back safe and sound.

There's already been some crazy shit going on lately as is, so unless it's always been like this without the use of the internet and social media telling us fucking everything, then I'd have to agree with how you feel

Pokemon Ultra sun and moon when it comes out. Not only are you paying for what is essentially DLC for one of the worst in the series, you're also paying for a rehashed concept. At 20+ years old the fact that you would fall for such a thing will drive you to depression if playing pokemon at 20+ years old doesn't.

I feel like humanity is either enthralled in an "us vs them" mentality, dividing all of us, or caught up in nihilistic hedonism that's flushing the chance of a hopeful future down the drain.

Luna is unironically the best girl in all of FF, Noctis rejected Cindy, Iris and Aranea of all girls in the game for that priestess pussy.

This. Really hit me all in the feels. I don't think a game has ever made me just stop, look at the sky, and contemplate life before. But that one definitely did.

>I want to play a game that'll make me horribly depressed.

Going to hijack this thread to rage a bit. I am so fucking sick and tired of developers trying to emotionally manipulate people. Because they do it lazily. And they keep doing the same fucking thing over and over again. They keep playing to the concept of loss.

Was playing Mad Max. They have you save a woman and her child. Entire mission has you going out to save the child. Carry the child back. Very next mission woman is tortured and hanged and the child is crucified.

Devs keep doing this. They try to set up an emotional connection to then exploit it via the deaths of the characters to get a reaction. It's supposed to make players upset at the villain, supposedly. But it doesn't. It just pisses me off at the devs. Because it's the laziest fucking thing you can do. It's the laziest attempt at emotional manipulation you can do. It's fucking hilariously tropey. It is the Unity Asset Flip of script elements. It just makes me want to take up a tire iron and cave in the heads of the people that make use of it.

So I guess I'm saying the only tangible depression you can get from games is going in with expectations. Because devs these days are frauds.

Make something in the vein of that new x-man movie, Logan. Main character used to OP but his power is failing because he is OLD while the bad guys are still there because an evil God doesn't have to fight you if he knows he can't win. He just waits till old age catches you and you die. Your own mortality and irrelevance will be depressing. To make it sting a little more, make it so you're replacements are weak so there's the mortality of the system itself. Everything is dying and becoming irrelevant.
