What is the most depressing video game you ever played?
>>323943014
idk probably GOW 3
MGSV
Undertale
LISA
>>323943014

>>323943014
WoW. It was like watching the slow agonizing death of a thousand baby seals.
>>323943229

This
FF7 CC
DEPRESSION QUEST. Teehee anonymoose
>>323943014
The one where I spend most of my day trying to figure out which one I want to play. That one always kills the mood.
>>323945242
Oh shit. That's the worst. I've got an amazing Steam library, bought stuff dirt cheap from bundles. I find myself installing one or two games, promising myself I'll startup one of them when I get off from work.
That never happens.
>>323945242
Fuck you
>>323945242
>>323945435
I get a 6-pack and plop down on my computer looking through my steam library. I end up binging on beer and passing out in the chair with nothing played or actually done except masturbating to feet.
Mother 3.
Papers, Please or the Pretentious Game series.
>>323943014
Maybe Max Benis
I don't know if I would pick 2 or 3 though
2 was so bittersweet in the sense that I enjoyed the fuck out of it but it was such a short ride that ended too soon
3 was just all around depressing in the sense that it had absolutely no charm whatsoever and felt like not only had Max's life gotten fucked in the ass but his videogame had too
>>323945682
>except masturbating to feet
You've got a pretty good taste though.
Really? No one? Lost Odyssey.
>>323945242
>>323945435
>too many games to choose from
Should have got a PS4.
GTA IV
>>323945435
Life is suffering.
>>323943014
LISA, I'm not sure I can even go back to it.
Dark Souls
Also WoW because I know I'll never experience it for the first time again.
>>323943014
Fatal Frame 1 and 2, loved the games but the ghost stories really bummed me the fuck out.
Guild Wars 2
something inside me died when I realized what they had done
Chrono Trigger without a doubt.
At first it seems such a cheerful game. Then all of a sudden I'm being accused for kidnapping the princess and sentenced to death?! You just have to wait in the dungeon until guards come take you to the block.
All of my friends keep telling me how good game it is. Maybe I'm missing something. I've heard people say it's short and all, but I had no idea it's over in just a couple of hours.
>>323943014
MGS2 of course. After AI tells about his intentions. When i played it for the first time 12 years ago i was of course in disagreement with MGS2 AI points of view. But now after experiencing the massive popularization of internet and shit, getting older and seeing how easily people can be fooled and manipulated, how stupid they actually are, but how much power they have to ruin things at the same time. Now I'm in complete agreement with AI point of view. That is really fucking depressing.

Final Fantasy Tactics, for knowing that Matsuno will never again make a good game
To the moon, if you equate sad with depressed that is.
>>323946436
I'm still mad , I will always be mad as this guy from mass effect post
>>323946829
for you anon
I don't care if I'm risking a ban. I completely understand where you're coming from.
as for me, I don't know why but visual novels really get the best from me. so I would say kara no shoujo
>>323943014
I don't even get depressed anymore. No happiness, no sadness, just nothingness.
Also stopped listening to music, watching films, reading books. I just kind of exist.
>>323943014
good kind of depression? LISA
bad kind of depression? mass effect 3.

>>323946436
whats happened?
>>323949436
I hope it's bait cause that's the definition of depression anon. Either go seek help or suicide early on so other people won't have to deal with your bullshit.
either yume nikki or postal 1

>>323949596
they took a heavily team- and buildcrafting- focussed game (Guild Wars) and turned it into a casual solo themepark MMO with F2P-tier monetisation and sjw-infested fanfic-tier story
Everybody's gone to the Rapture was pretty depressing recently but you guys wouldn't know because ps4 has nogames.Gone Home also had a strangely depressing atmosphere but I think that's because I played it the night I broke up with my first gf ;_;
I played this game while suffering from some serious undiagnosed depression. Looking back, it probably contributed a lot to my depression. I know there are a lot of "darker" games out there, but the feeling of helplessness and loneliness in this game really hurts to remember.
I wasn't even playing the game for enjoyment. It was my second or third play through and I was just following a personal walkthrough guide I'd made. I wasn't an adventure, it was like a second job.
>>323945682
>passing out with a 6pack
lel
>masturbating to feet
i stand corrected, nice taste
>>323945917
The lack of PS4 games does actually mean that I play them more.
>>323943014
I want this girl to sit on my face and grind as hard as she can.
>>323943014
Chrono Cross.
this onei couldn't get past the first 5 mins because it kept reminding me of all the online relationships i had as a teen and how unfulfilling they were
>>323949436
Anon, that's actual Depression.
Seek help, talk to someone. 4chan will tell you to kill yourself.
It can end up real bad. Friend of mine went by the razor.
LISA
>>323947575
>King of Sex
Well I'd say he has a stronger grasp of the basics.
The ending of Persona 3 plusShinjiro's "Alright, let's do this!"pulled at my heartstrings but I don't think I've been significantly affected by a game in my adulthood. The use of your actual name in Earthbound fucked me up as a kid but that's about it.
>>323949289
What the hell did I just watch?
>>323949436
Holy shit are you me? At least i have sone glimpses of joy every now and then, but mostly i'm just kinda empty

Came here to post this. Pretty much no one has a good day in the end.
>>323945242
>>323945435
No wonder there's so many master ricers on /v/.
You guys need your own board so your shitposting can be contained and kept away from people that actually play vidya.

In terms of disappointment, GW2.
In terms of actual story for a game, Nier.

Hunter: The Reckoning
>>323954994
VtM: Bloodlines
>>323954994
It's vampire the masquerade: bloodlines you dummy
The Void. It was kind of odd because I wasn't even having that much fun with the game, but I needed to complete it just on the hope that there would be happy ending, it was too depressing to just leave it at any other point.
>>323943014
Doing all extra stuff that isn't quest chains in Witcher 3 is very depressing.
All the markers with the eyes+barrels require you to jump of your boat, swim around in a circle looting three chests with shit loot that's always the same.
90% of the time, the area is surrounded by enemies you can only fight with the slow af crossbow.
Also, half the quests are you finding a key and a note that leads you to a chest.
I totally recommend the main quest line and side quests though.
Do VN's count as video games?
If so clannad if not neir.
>>323943014
None.
Video games are supposed to be fun, not depressing.
>>323955364
>He can't be happy and sad at the same time
I bet you can't even be scared and excited, too.

Spec Ops The Line
This shit right here man, I still get shivers
>>323955742
Great bait image family
Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter
The game's story itself is depressing, the gameplay is depressingly shitty, and the realization that there wouldn't be any more BoF games completed the rule of three.
>>323955742
It's not popular on /v/ right now to say Spec Ops makes you feel emotions, anon. Even though I disagree and know it's /v/'s stupid contrarian perspective.
>>323955527
Nigga when Mario jumped that goomba and went WAHUUU dude i was cryin man, like a bitch
>>323943014
Whatever i'm playing when the adderall starts wearing off.
>>323955742
>>323956001
How long does it take for Spec ops to get good? I played it a few years ago via PS+ and it just seemed like a boring 3rd person military sim.
>>323943014
mgs5
>>323955364
That's not how enjoyment works anon. Never seen a scary movie? Gone to a haunted house? What kind of crazy robot are you to only feel one emotion at a time?
>>323956148
If you got to the White Phosphorus scene and it didn't make you want to keep playing, the game just isn't for you.
Mandatory Walking Dead Season 1 post
Shame most of telltales other games are shit
>>323943014
the first day we got Sims my dad made our family on it, and my Sim mom died in an oven fire
>>323955290
why ?
why even do that ?
Why is it in the game actually ? It doesn't give you anything, it's just fake content... It makes you think htere's more to the game, but really, there isn't...
>>323956342
I'm assuming I didn't because I didn't feel compelled to play much further wherever in the game I was. Game was pretty ugly on PS3 as well which didn't help.
>>323956416
When I found out the same people die no matter what you choose, the appeal completely wore off.
>see OP image
>expect HIM
>he doesn't show
nice
>>323956550
Don't spoil it for yourself if you can help it. Try getting to that point if you have a chance. It feeling like a generic military shooter is part of the game's point.
NG+ of Nier
I unironically like the Last of Us and was legitimately emotionally involved
I still think its overated though
>>323955290
I did all of this too. It was some of the biggest waste of time I have ever spent on a video game.
>>323956515
Velen was alright with the question marks, it was just something to do on the way to your destination or something to do on the side. Skellige went overboard with all the stuff in the water.
>>323956781
It was a pretty draining experience. I wish they eased back on the shooting gallery segments...
>>323956832
I did all the question marks in velen, but I only did the ones on land in Skellige. Should have had more land ones in skellige, less water.
>>323949278
I'm pretty indifferent towards MMOs so I haven't heard about this yet, but holy fuck it is depressing.
>>323955290
Hearts of Stone was pretty depressing
You can go all the way to save this dude and get his emotions back just for him to get hit by the loss of what he did and hes probably going to an hero
>>323956885
>I wish they eased back on the shooting gallery segments...
They're stupid and don't fit the themes of the game at all.
>resources are scarce, every shot counts
>oh you're hanging upside down? unlimited revolver ammo
they also could have used more monster types, and I wish the friendly AI wasn't so damn retarded. The best parts of the game are where Joel is alone, like in the Pittsburgh elevator shaft.
>>323956952
Didn't miss out on anything.
>>323943014
Kara no Shoujo
It's a horror/mystery VN where things just continually go from bad to worse before the story finally ends in a very bleak manner.
>>323946710
nice meme
>>323955352
Clannad is certainly sad and tragic, but I wouldn't call it depressing. Despite all of the shit that the characters go through, it always feels like things end on a bittersweet but optimistic note.
>>323957389
Am I kawaii
>>323954301
If I remember corrrectly there's even an e-mail where the girl sounds super happy that she had an actual date with someone nice for once and she contemplated giving up whoring for him.
>>323957040
I wouldn't be so mad if gw 1 wouldn't be so good compared to this trash
>>323957389

tfw tried my hardest to get the true end of both first and second game for Toko and all I get is a crippling feeling of emptiness inside
>>323945682
Are you me?
>>323957564
>Tfw restarted the game several times before realising thatI couldn't save Orihime no matter what I did
KnS in a nutshell.
>>323957713
Every ending is bad, even the "true ending". I played the VN just because I wanted a good horror story, I never asked to become a soulless husk by the time that I finished it.
>>323949278
>all this SJW shit
That wasn't even the real shit about GW2. Christ. Not everything can be blamed on SJWs.
>>323957775
>You will never be able to tell Toko the truth before it's too late
>You will never be able to save her
![maxresdefault[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/SJaEC4O.jpg "maxresdefault[1].jpg")
I can barely remember the story, but it had this crushing sense of hopelessness about it.
I also clearly remember that I wanted to strangle both of those cunty Menders with my bare hands, the guy especially.
Persona 4
The game was a light hearted weaboo fantasy until the fight against Adachi. I pity him, he went insane because he lived in an almost perfect world (as long as you don't get involved in any demon/persona stuff) but his life was still shit. Comparing him to Yu who was perfect in everything and had a harem is just depressing.

>>323943014

>>323958273
Adachi is the only good character in that game. If it were an SMT you would've been able to join him
>>323943014
Mother 3 for sure
>>323957752
Damnit she's cute.

>>323943014
There are probably more depressing ones, but I'm playing Talos Principle right now and everything about it feels kinda sad, but in a good way.
>>323956550
just keep playing man, it looks kinda shitty but the game gets better after a certain part not far from the very start of the game.
>>323943014
