 That doesn't mean I'm a mangirl.

No, it means you're a girlyman!




Me too.

...more seriously though, I never actually got close to crying but there were a few emotional moments where I felt like I might have cried if I was a ****! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA!



...no but seriously, I felt **** in a few spots, especially towards the end.

 Exactly, you are a wordsmith my friend.

 There's like this one part at the end that I can't talk about that just tore at my heart, TORE I SAY!!!

 I may go take a bath.

I feel it too, especially toward Morrigan in the end (if you pursue certain ending) =(

This game does tend to air sleeping emotions, isn't it fantastic?



Dragon age has had me laughing, tingling with delight and, yes, crying real tears. The only thing I can say in my defense is, I require more of the same.

There was no real moment that made me want to cry, but I felt pretty disgusted with myself when I killed Connor.



Usually when I pick an evil option in a game, I go "Ha! Look at their virtual tears!" but in that moment I was like "Damn, this is too wrong".

Ugh my first playthrough, Alistair died...I was so determined to "beat" the game, I would find a happy ending without Morrigan hahaha...nope not the case. When Alistair died...oh, I bawled. My husband was sitting with me, trying not to look too smug. Then in the coronation scene, I just got so mad and cried harder that nobody cared. Everyone is celebrating. I take Morrigan's offer from now on...I just can't deal with the heartbreak.

While I'm not a crier, (my father would have taunted me, also I have a beard now. A beard!) I still found Dragon Age left me emotionally drained at the end. It was about a few days at least before I felt myself again, Several friends experienced the same thing and its been mentioned on the forums a few times. I'm curious to know how many others reacted in the same way. Note: I do not mean that we were depressed upon completing the game, but that the ending was cathartic in a major way.

[kaimanaMM]

It was the same for me, at the end I felt like I had just ridden an incredible emotional roller coaster (not in a bad way!). There were some great fist-pumping "Eye of the Tiger" moments, there were quiet introspective moments, there was all the promise and romance of young love, there was much MUCH laughter... and there were tears. After all was said and done it was quite an experience, like nothing I've had before with any game. It took me a few days to disconnect, so to say.



I can't wait to see what lies ahead and where the story will go. I was so sad to have it come to an end, but at the same time, it's just the beginning.

[Nihaola]

I feel so sad how they treat elves, and to even read that there used as slaves sumwhere else.

[LdyShayna]

After playing through the human noble origin five or six times, I finally stopped crying at the end of it. Huzzah!

Haha, me too. xD I also found the Dalish Elf origin sad, curse the emotion invoking music at the end!

I did the same on my first playthrough -- it's so disconcerting emotionally that Alistair, the man your PC loved , the man who sacrificed himself for you, for all of Fereldan is but an afterthought, there's not even any semblance of a conversation option that will acknowledge Alistair's martyrdom and my PC's love for him. However rather than making my PC and Alistair suffer through the indignation and depravity of Morrigan's ritual, I reloaded to have my PC choose to sacrifice herself (leaving Alistair at the gates), not a "happy" ending but at least a meaningful and cathartic one. I still cried though - a lot. Alsitair's heart-wrenching eulogy [I...I thought we would be together forever!] was just...*sob*

Hell, it was yes. I stayed up till half past three in the morning last night to finish the game, and there were several moments in the endgame that made me choke up or even cry a little -- in an altogether good way! It may be partly due to personal stress making me feel very "raw" at the moment, but it is definitely also due to the quality of the game itself.

My "teary moments" were the cutscene of the armies marching on Denerim with Eamon's voiceover, Alistair's battle-speech for the troops, the last words with the companions at the city gates and, of course, the deathblow and the epilogue. It was simply perfect for my character, I could not have asked for or come up with a better ending. A true warrior's sacrifice, just as I had been hoping.

And as I wrote in another threat, there is just the right amount of "light" in the epilogues, the ones I got, to make the journey and sacrifice truly worth it, but no unrealistic fairy tale happiness for all. I just wish Fergus had found some more words, and more emotion, for his dead sister, and that Dog had an epilogue. Otherwise it was great. Oghren tearfully naming his daughter after my warrior was particularly moving, as were Alistair's words about having "thought we would be together forever". Glad to see a good platonic bond acknowledged in that way, he really was like a younger brother.

Alistair's words about having "thought we would be together forever". Glad to see a good platonic bond acknowledged in that way, he really was like a younger brother.

It's interesting how those words carried a different connotation for a person who hadn't romanced Alistair. for me that same sentence was laden with romantic overtones - didn't seem platonic at all.

[Korva]

I was surprised by that, yes. For a moment I wondered if it was a bug. But eh, I'm not complaining. A true platonic friendship is a wonderful thing, and I hate it when it's being put down as "just being friends". There is no "just" to it and it's definitely less fickle than romance.

[HarlequinDream]

I got a bit emotional even before the finale. The part where each of my companions came up to me when I was heading past Denerim gates to face the archdemon made me a bit emotional. Especially Leliana.



I have yet to be able to face the idea of killing Alistair, but that's coming in one save of my newest playthrough.

[Kynroyka]

For me, the moment that really made me tear up and grab a tissue was the post-coronation conversation with ... Shale.
She talks about how she'll be trying to become mortal again, and if I ever see a tiny dwarf in fear of being squished, that will be her.

And then...

"Until then, I wish it well. It -- You -- have been a fine friend."  

 

[Stronghold II]

In this playthrough I did not use Sten at all, yet his compliment at the end made me tingle inside.



Can't wait to finish a playthrough with the big guy.

[Statulos]

I just loved the process of Sten becoming a fully confident warrior after considering death as the only way out ("death will be my attonement", in Lothering). In the very end he charges to victory without hesitation, without a single shadow of failure. I also loved his half-smile when he gets his sword back.



Sten is perhaps my fave companion since he´s absolutely "alien" compared to the rest. When he starts calling you "kadan" (which I assume is translated as "comrade" in the pure sense of "fellow soldier"), you know that you will really win.
