Do games stir your emotions?

Recommended Posts

There are times when I just feel a range of emotions about the games I play, especially towards the characters. These emotions include pity, sadness, happiness based on the game and storyline. 
 

So games stir your emotions?

Games can make us feel strongly about the characters and stories, in a way that's different from movies or books. It's a special mix of storytelling and connection that stays with us.

Until I was introduced to RDR2, no. But now I bawl my eyes out when Arthur dies. I hate Micah, the same as everyone else. I feel an emotional connection with Arthur. In the Van der Linde gang, I’ve found the family that I didn’t have growing up. When it all collapses, I’m devastated. Which is why I tend to not go past chapter 3 anymore, assuming I even take it that far.

You can see Pearson feeling like me when he looks at the gang photo he has hanging up in his shop in Rhodes. He misses it with every fiber of his being. And I do too. I can barely play the epilogue, because it breaks my heart.

I’m probably too emotionally invested in the game, but I honestly can’t help it.
