Thanks. So I got a little emotional over a game: it happens, just more often than not with this one. lol.

Still thinking about what happened though and I'm still pissed off. Heads will roll, I swear!

entertainment is supposed to move you though, right? Just because it's a game doesn't make that rule any less true :)

Well, the purpose of entertainment is to entertain you, but some do it better than others (I'm still waiting for those two hours of my life back I spent watching the original Transformers movie *shudders*). This game, or series of games, have provoked more responses from me than anything else. Makes sense seeing as I've already put 176 hours into this gaming trilogy (with about another few to go to finish the last one), and that's just one playthrough for each (minus the first game).

I dunno. Something about these games makes me squee and cry and...feel. I love it. It's only that many would argue that video games are less of a media form than movies or TV shows due to their nature, particularly when you look at shooters like Battlefield 3 or Modern Warfare. Gaming is growing in popularity but that doesn't mean that many people still think it can pull at your heartstrings. Make sense?

I have no idea since I don't know the game, but it sounds like it's an emotional and enjoyable ride? ::hugs::

Seeing as I want to make about five more posts on this game, and who the hell/why the hell my character was so important to me, you may come to understand. That's if you have the energy to read them. I wouldn't blame you if you didn't. lol

It was an incredibly emotional AND enjoyable ride. I'm not a crier, I hate crying because it feels like a weakness, but so many motions of this game had me either close to tears or just sobbing. I still cry sometimes as I listen to the soundtrack. It's like after watching "Doomsday" for the first time or perhaps even "End of Time" in the DW universe. Actually, it was worse but better. Make sense?

*hugs* Thanks. :) Hope you're feeling better too.
