Minesweeper. When I realized it's impossible to determine the location of the last mine by using logic and you just have to guess.

Rule of Rose

Nier was suffering

Great, now I need to get around to beating that game. Always get sick of it on the airship.

Pathologic.

...

>beat me to it
Just finished the Bachelor's run (with cheats). It's true suffering.

WoW, glad I finally made the jump during Pandaria.

Not exactly soul crushing, but ObsCure 2 was pretty..umm...yeah. Sucks that the only decent quality vid I can find has shitspeak subs, but the voices are English at least. youtube.com/watch?v=MSuCrh5Pw5E

Radiant Silvergun

Spore

LISA

Spec Ops. No you fags, nothing to do with the fucked up shit he did, it was the twist of how LONG he had been insane.

Old World Blues because the message is so simple but so often missed. I suppose that's more to do with people skipping dialogue and whatnot though.

Ninja gaiden, especially the stage 6-2 upwards

that one game where the monster was the good guy the whole time and you were playing as the bad guy and then the monster girl gets killed by her own father who doesn't know that it's his daughter and then the actual monster girl gets to live on in the daughters body

>Old world blues
That money can buy happiness, but you're poor?

Homeworld

Nier actually helped me reach out to my friends and deal with my depression. I got back together with my wife who I pushed away and basically kicked out of our apartment when she was trying to help me. Nier literally fixed my soul.

Phantom Brave. The protagonist is an orphaned girl who can see ghosts and is ostracized by every living person. Her only friends are these generic ghosts she summons to fight. Depressing music, art, and story direction. And to top it off, ridiculously grindy.

It got me too, I thought the big spoiler was about roasting civillians.
I only noticed Walker was going crazy by the teleporting heavy. I could tell he was acting different before, but thought it was stress and exhaustion. Turns out he went completely insane after the Gate, and might have been a bit crazy even before arriving in Dubai.

Saddest and soul crushing? I don't know. Video games have never ever really oppressed me that much. But for the sake of the thread I'll go with the last of us.

It's a meme, but "To The Moon" made me cry

Witch's House
House in Fata Morgana was extremely sad but it had a happy ending

No one's left.
Everything's gone.

...

Probably the best use of a classical score in videogames.

Silent Hill 2

Skyrim.

...

When ghost died, or Soap

Phantom Pain. Haven't played anything since that game came out.

witch's house

Either MGSV or FFXV.
Not because of the games themselves but because of what could have been.

Why is that asian girl so sad?

Phantom Pain does that to ya.

fuck you, that didn't make me sad it just filled me with rage

Games that get good/happy endings get forgotten fast user, games with sad/bad endings are often talked on this board, like WH, or LISA or To The Moon or Nier.

I wonder who is behind this

This is is still one of my favorite games.

It shows just how much more important story is compared to mechanics

>Witch's House
Seconding this. The game wasn't that bad but when you got the true end it was like a motherfucking truck run you over.

>drawn to life 2 ending
>everything was all for nothing because it was all a dream
arigato THQ

>walker died in the heli crash
>even if he lived, and got the "good" ending he would have to live with all that for the rest of his life

The endings of Life is Strange for being shit

Persona 2

You know what I'm talking about... except when it turns out to be a ruse, YOU BITCH.

drakengard, it really is something else

What a fucking faggot.

it's a game about a scantily clad anime lady that's filled to the brim with fanservice to market the game towards teenagers.

get the fuck over yourself.

>this is now considered a girl
Fucking SJW

i really wouldn't call pathologic soul-crushing. the entire game is just melancholy

What part of Sup Forums taught you to be this abrasive about something you don't know even the first thing about?

Unlearn it. Stop being an asshole for the sake of it. Despite what you've been told, no, that's not peoples default setting here.

That's gay, ur gay

>t shows just how much more important story is compared to mechanics
fuck off

>I don't know what I'm talking about
Automata isn't the only Nier game. Never change, Sup Forums.
