Wait till you get to the end. I cried at that part, then the end also. I cried twice for that game. That has never happened before. I also cried for FFX(at the end), Crisis Core ending, Valkyria Chronicles(Isara's ...) and MGS4(Raiden's ending).

hey hey emo-boy, wanna some lettuce to cut your wrists with?

just kidding, of course!
but I never cried too. but its was so sad seeing all the Toads tied in the trees in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time 
the words above were backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!
The problem is that a lot of developers attempt to make these emotionless, unstoppable characters. And then, without any attempt at subtlety, they try to make them emotional.
*Slight Spoilers*
Before that scene, Kaim was just another cliched emotionless protagonist (I'm surprised more people don't criticize this). Then, all of a sudden you see some emotion. Could Mistwalker have been a bit more subtle? Imagine if Kratos suddenly started crying in an emotional scene of God of War 3. Most people would probably find it unnatural, and I don't think it's any different for these other characters.
Same with Gears of War 2. The scene where Dom discovered Maria to be maimed and tortured beyond repair was just awful. I know it was supposed to be emotional, but watching him blast Locust in the face all game and then watching him (a grown man) break into tears felt really unnatural. It's not like I'm an emotionless person. I thought there were some moving scenes in Lost Odyssey. I really felt for Vivi in Final Fantasy 9, and I even cried while watching Ferris Bueller's Day Off. A character like Batman is cold and brutal, but you actually have insight into his childhood and the pain he felt. In Lost Odyssey, it's basically about how Kaim is an immortal and about how much that sucks. I'd love to be immortal, but I feel for Mistwalker's cheap attempt at emotion.
The dreams were far better than any of the cutscenes, by far. Didn't that cutscene also have the kids singing? Yeah, that ruined it too.
I refuse to read the spoiler! 
I'm so getting this game!
Kowenicki: The dreams happened before Kaim was robbed of his memories and turned into an emotionless robot. I have nothing wrong with an emotionless robot turning into someone emotional, but it was done fairly poorly.

i think he means that he cries everytime he plays wii sports.
Well, when I was little I cried because of Super Mario 64.
Although the reason was because it was the one of the first times I had ever played a 3d game, and my eyes were almost bleeding because my young eyes could not take it.. Glad that doesn't happen anymore!
And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

So I guess we aren't hiding spoilers anymore?
My little girl watched me while I played Lost Odyssey. She was a huge fan of Mack and Cooke. When Lirum died, she was dead silent, and holding on to my arm. I had to have a talk with her, after that, but the game wound up explaining death fairly well. It's the fact that Lirum was dead, then she came back for 5 minutes, and died again that didn't sit well with me. If it were somebody with whom I'd built some sort of connection with, I think it would have played better. I felt bad for Mack and Cooke (especially when they were crying and trying to wake Lirum up!), but that's about it......and by the end of the game, I REALLY wanted to give those kids a spanking!

Not because the ending was sad (it was really well done though!) but because it was an awesome game and ended :( That happens to me with a lot of games I like. Eh...I don't cry during games. lol at SmokedHostage. |
Soriku am hardcore confirmed!
