I almost teared up reading the epilogue of all my characters (sans Zevran, who I was forced to kill). I chose the ulitmate sacrifice ending. I'd have to say the best epilogues were Sten and Oghren. Sten was the "only one" epilogue, and Oghren sobered up, married, and named his kid after me. Those were my two favorites.



I was emotional at the end of the Dalish and Human Noble origins. Not teary eyed, just emotional. They tugged at my heartstrings.

[DarthCaine]

The most emotional scenes where when you talk to your party before and after the archdemon, but not nearly enough to cry. This isn't MGS

I was satisfied and completely content with my first playthrough. Sure, there were a couple quests that could have or should have turned out differently, but I accepted the consequences, moved on, and won the day. I ended the Blight with my own hands and was posthumously declared a Paragon, with all that that entails. It felt fantastic, without any melancholy at all.
Now, my second and current playthroughs? Runny eyes and constricted throat at every turn… That may have something to do with the fact that I've been sick for the past two weeks but hey… It still counts…
Seriously though, my first character was very stoic, so while I did feel some strain at certain points (I hate Kitty and how she made me kill that little girl), I was more likely to react in anger than sorrow over any events that transpired. The one exception was when I discovered that one of the spirits I had summoned in the Circle escaped and killed innocents on the road. That one really really hurt, on multiple levels.
My frustration with my second character was directed at him and I for playing as him, instead of at the game itself. He was so manipulative and selfish that I never really felt sad while playing. He just didn't care that much.
My current playthrough is very emotional for me so far, especially when dealing with my family in the Origin story. I was literally grinning from ear to ear gleefully when starting up my third playthrough, fingers shaking in excitement at the prospect of playing a good, smart, friendly, funny and adventurous character. I ran around the castle like a little kid at Christmas and then came the twist. BioWare really drives the experience home, door after door, room after room, agony after agony, culminating with…well, you probably know how it ends. At Ostagar, some days later, Aeniyer and I had time to come to terms with what had happened, and we were tentatively playful and adventurous again, with the highlight of course being our new friend Alistair. Again, however, it was only to be crushed once more by those dastardly Canadians. After spending time doing some good in Lothering and interacting with my new friends (I downloaded and installed the Slap Morrigan mod, incidentally), we're feeling chipper and are currently trying to help the people of Redcliffe.

I'm a waterworks. Basically, if there's any heavy emotional impact -- even anger or happiness -- at all, I tend to turn on the faucets. And, I get way too immersed in the game.

I've cried both during the goodbyes at the gate and during the coronation/epilog for every ending I've tried (and I have tried quite a few), even the ones where everyone I care to keep alive is still around. I also cry at various emotionally charged points throughout the game, like the cutscene after the beacon is lit at Ostagar.

I've always gone for the ritual, but there are a few places in the game where there's some rapid blinking, if not big sobby tears (as Sgt. Kylon would say : The werewolves saying goodbye to the Lady, Morrigan's words on friendship before the battle (it surprised me how touched I was), the sudden and unexpected crash and burn of the human noble PC/Alistair romance.... While not saddening, I also felt a bond with Sten and Oghren in their words before the battle.

[Spitz6860]

i got depressed for 2-3 days, but that was it.

[Keithhy]

I don't remember crying at all, but my funeral was emotional, and I was nearly chocking with rage when Vaughn came into the Alienage during the city elf origin.

[Sidreus]

After many runs (also counting half ones) there are things really bring me verge of tears.:



- Morrigan and her friendship speeches. Both at gate and camp.



- Ruck's mother. That lady has such a calming tone and even it is for her good, lying about Ruck and see how she crumbles makes me really sad.



- Zevran's convos about friendship/love and his choice of staying with me, with Wardens.



- Human Noble story as many people.



- Death of Ser Otto. He was such a fine guy.

[blademaster7]

In my sacrifice ending I was touched by Alistair's speech. The endings of Sten and Oghren moved me as well... almost cry.



In my ritual ending I completely snapped when Morrigan was saying goodbye. "I will always remember you my love".... had me depressed for days. I just couldn't continue... I closed the game and finished it much later...

[Korva]

I did, yes. My "teary" moments were the climax of the human noble origin (even though I pretty much knew what to expect), the peaceful resolution of Nature of the Beast, the march on Denerim cutscene plus the parting words with the companions at the gate, and of course the epilogue after the ultimate sacrifice. But aside from having to leave my characters' parents to their deaths, those were all pretty happy tears actually, if that makes any sense. All these moments were touching and meaningful and were exactly what I had been hoping for -- or even better. (Oghren in particular surprised me both with his parting words and his epilogue, since I never really liked him during the game yet in those moments he kicks the pants off everyone else IMO.)

The battle at Ostagar didn't make me misty-eyed but it did make me sad and very very angry at the same time -- especially that moment when poor Duncan looks up and sees the signal fire burning.

Ser Otto was one of my favourite NPCs despite his brief appearance! He really embodies all that can be good about the Chantry and the Templars and I'm very glad Bioware implemented such a character. His death didn't make me cry, but I was really shocked and (again) really angry. Afterwards I stood at his body and felt really crappy having to just leave it there. I wish there was a way to carry him out and give him a proper funeral.

Not crying, but definitly teary eyed on a few occasions. When your friends say goodbye at the Gates of Denerim was one, the end when of the werewolf quest where Zathrian kills himself and the werewolves say goodbye to the Lady of the Forrest was another.

/Edit. Morrigan's friendship speech was pretty emotional too.

Cry? Not quite. The ending where you sacrifice yourself though no doubt touched a soft spot and I struggled, a few other scenes mentioned many times that stirred up some emotions. Props to Bioware, been a long time since I've had a game stir me up like DA:O.

[darrenr22]

I've never cried over events in a game but I have to say that Dragon Age: Origins is full of really moving moments, right the way through the story. The scene at the end of the human noble origin section is amazing and lots of the things that happen before and after the battle with the Archdemon too. But there are lots of little incidents throughout the game, such as the little boy at the bridge in Lothering who doesn't realise his mother his dead, the Jogby and Rigby letters and the reaction of Rigby's wife in Redcliffe. It is a tribute to the attention to detail by the writers of DA:O.

I didn't actually cry, but I was furious and yelled at Alistair over the dumping thing and then the "the best thing I can do as king" crap. That was my first playthrough and I had no idea it was coming. I started over the second I finished wondering how to get Sten his cake.

That is probably the most vivid memory I have from the first playthrough. City elf. Assembly hall in front of all the nobility. My elf has just proclaimed Alistair king, and trusting 100% love and a promise he made earlier in the game, she continued: "And I will rule beside him" (how would Alistair manage without her anyway, eh?) And then he dumps her: "sorry, Ferelden won't accept an elf as queen"  I could feel her sink through the floor. Bioware should have added laughter from the nobility as a touch.

At that time enough spoilers had seeped into my awareness for me to know that there was some suicidal ending. I immediately decided to go that path to take revenge on Alistair and had her answer just: "I think I understand".

In the end I chickened out. When Morrigan came with her creepy offer, I decided I wanted to play this character again, in a future game. Kaillan is firstmost a survivor, after all. And suicide as revenge on Alistair semed a silly thing in the end, too silly for her character.

does crying from laughter count if so im guilty

I especially liked what Sten says about my PC -- I can't remember the exact words, but it was good to know my PC had such an impact on such a stoic character.

Sten says that he hopes he wont see you again, since the next time he'll be in this part of the world it will be as part of an invasion.

Unless I'm totally off my rocker (which is a possibility!), I believe he has another line -- at least if you take the sacrifice ending (and perhaps if you had his approval high enough).  Something along the lines of being asked if he ever met anyone worthy in Fereldan, and him replying "only one." 

The actual wording in the game is, of course, much better than my half-remembered version.

Sten, all your companions really, have different lines and endings depending on how you played the game.  You're not crazy, this is one of those endings.  If you live, he also may invite you to go home with him.  

[wwwwowwww]

didn't sten say something about if you do see each other again he will not seek you out on the battlefield

[KnightofPhoenix]

I got teary at the end, yes. And quasi-depressed.

[Costin_Razvan]

I cried when I saw the clip of my army marching. It really did feel like a sense of acomplishment.

I didn't start bawling, but there were a few moments that got me teary-eyed/emotional.



- Zevran's dialogue regarding his final mission, particularly his "I felt empty. I felt as if I was nothing. I felt as if she had been nothing' line. It works a lot better with his voice.



- Oghren's farewell speach at Denerim's gates when you have him at max approval. I think it's different depending on whether he's friendly or just warm.



- Morrigan's dialogue if you talk to her during the final level and pick the 'I just wanted to thank you. For everything.' option. That and her accepting you as her only friend. Morrigan's dialogue can be very emotional when being her friend (never romanced her - yet).



- Swiftrunner and the Werewolves saying goodbye to the Lady when you break the curse.



That was about it, at least that was all I can remember.

[Kohaku]

I love Dragon Age. No question. However, I haven't shed a tear in this game. Heck, I don't think any Bioware game has made me cry and I LOVE Bioware! ~Hugs the Devs until they pop~



Lost Odyssey however...

[Annarl]

No crying. But all the endings were touching in their own way.
