The whole ending of Transistor, OMG. And that’s coming from someone who plays games for fun mechanics, not for the story or for feeling things.

Gotta be the final fight in Metal Gear Solid 4. So ridiculously dramatic

For me, one of the most memorable was, beating Ornstein and Smough in Dark Souls for the first time solo. It was a great feeling of accomplishment, and I could see that I really mastered that game’s combat.

So many “AHA!” moments in TUNIC. Figuring out secrets. Figuring out mechanics for the first time and realizing you had access to things well before you realized you did. Finding the Holy Cross and the Golden Path. Many of this moments gave me goosebumps.

For me it was when i was playing deep rock galactic. I always played with randoms and i was still not very sure how everything worked and i would quite often get lost. In one game extraction was already going, and we had like 2 minutes left. I panicked and just ran around like an idiot, at some point i accepted my fate and kinda just looked around. Suddenly a driller blasted through a wall, like the koolaid man. He gave me a rock and stone and i followed him back to the drill with like 20 seconds to spare. I never had a moment in video games before and after where i saw someone doing something and i legitimately though: wow, an actual super hero.

There was just something that clicked right there. Deep rock is very dark and claustrophobic, and if you have a bad sense of orientation and (i think i didn’t know how the map worked) and i don’t think any game ever gave me that good kind of anxiety before.

In Monster Hunter World’s iceborne expansion there’s a monster called Brachydios. It’s a giant blue monster that attacks by spreading explosive slime all over the arena and punching it to blow it up. In the postgame you can eventually fight a variant known as Raging Brachydios which is about twice as big and three times as agressive. For the most part it’s almost the same as the normal Brachy fight, just significantly more intense. That is, until near the end of the fight.

It should be noted that Monster Hunter games are hard. The base game is difficult. The expansions are even harder. The expansion post games? Brutal. Raging Brachydios is one of the most difficult fights I’ve ever had in a video game, only topped by the monsters that follow it in the same game. (soloing Fatalis is probably my greatest video game achievement of all time.)

So you’ve been stuck with this beast for about 20 minutes now, slowly wearing it down. You’re probably on your last life and you’ve burned through enough healing items to last you the entire base game. Finally this thing runs away, and you can tell you’re nearing the end. You sharpen your weapon one last time and follow the monster into that volcanic cavern.

Suddenly, it lets out a bellowing roar and starts rapidly punching the ground! Slime is flying everywhere and the entire room seems to heat up. You notice a message on the side of your screen: “Oh no! The entrance has been blocked off! Looks like you can’t use certain items!”. the Brachydios has sealed off your exits and disabled your traps and fast travel items. There is no running away. There is no capturing this thing. Neither of you are leaving this room until one of you is dead. You can tell Brachydios is getting desperate. It’s flailing wildly, throwing slime everywhere with none of the precision and technique it had before. It has recognized you as a serious threat and it does not want to die.

Eventually however, you triumph! The beast belts out one final roar and falls over dead. Exhausted, you take a moment to recover from that grueling fight and from its corpse you tear your well earned prize! Two ebonshell and a warhead. Looks like you’re gonna have to murder another couple dozen of these things for that immortal reactor. Happy hunting!

All of the big set pieces in the Uncharted series. The train in Uncharted 2 stands out.

I’m partial to the helicopter scene in U2, the vehicle chase scene in U4, and the train sequence in Lost Legacy.

Have you played them all? I remember playing Bioshock 1 (at release) and the ending blowing my tiny, child mind.

LemmyHead ,

The chasing scene in Syphon Filter 1 or 2 where it ends with one guy hanging on to a helicopter and you gotta shoot him down. I loved the whole scene + music.

Old Pokémon games: catching a legendary with a normal pokeball. Defeating the legendary four (or whatever they were called) for the first time

Witcher 3, the sad story of the Baron (bloody Baron?)

Crash bandicoot, being able to reach the really high gem

Oddworld, having saved enough slaves to win the game

Pulling down the Star Destroyer in The Force Unleashed

Discussing God and freedom with Morpheus AI in original Deus Ex. It’s just excellently done. The damn thing makes good points, and there’s this soft piano (?) music setting the tone

Blew my mind when I was a kid. That game is filled with moments.

Would you kindly?

And the realisation that I not only have no choice if I want to progress the plot, but that at no point to now could I have progressed the plot had I not ‘kindly’ done as requested.

It was such a clever device to put in the story. Innocuous or obvious requests at first until it reached a point where you are forced to kill a guy. Or stop playing. It’s the most original and mind-blowing concept I’ve seen put into a game. I still think of it whenever someone asks me to ‘kindly’ do something.

(In case anyone doesn’t know, though I probably just spoiled one of its biggest moments if you don’t)

They storm up the river, patience from Zhou, waiting in the wake, Na’Vi’s about to be caught. Oh there’s the sleep, the surge, he catches everyone! Oh this could be a total disaster! Vacuum in, ravage on everyone, the blackhole as well. LightofHeaven, he turns it around, ravage as well, stolen by Dendi. ARE YOU KIDDING ME, THEY TURNED IT AROUND. 4 heroes dead, 5 heroes dead, Chuan trying to survive, Chuan’s gonna go down. Puppey talked about the naga counter, it’s lightofheaven with his bkb. They turned it around.
