Super Mario Odyssey. It was so much fun, but when I got to the end, like Alexander the Great I wept because there were no more worlds to conquer. It's not a short game, but it's so action-packed that it feels shorter than it is. I cannot say the same for most other games released these days, which often feel like they overstay their welcome.

Also, when I was only a 12-year-old kid, when I beat Final Fantasy IV for the first time, I was actually kind of sad to see my adventure come to an end. It was the first game I played where the characters felt like real individuals with their own personalities and goals. The credits rolled, and for the next 17 years until The After Years was released I wondered what happened to the characters after their hard-fought victory over the forces of evil.

I agree that Final Fantasy IV was mind blowing.  I already really loved the first Final Fantasy, but I was not prepared for this elaborate story and fleshed out characters that I encountered in "Final Fantasy II", heh.  The second game felt light years beyond the first.  Little did I know that this was actually the fourth iteration of the series and that is partly why it had progressed so much.
