What gaming experience gave you an unexpected emotional response?

Have you ever played a game that unexpectedly hit you with emotions you weren't prepared for? Maybe it was a particular moment, a story twist, or just the atmosphere that got to you. I recently found myself almost tearing up during a moment in Disco Elysium and didn’t see it coming. What game hit you hard emotionally, and why?

"Life is Strange" really hit me emotionally. The characters' struggles and choices felt so real, making the ending profoundly impactful for me.

The white phosphorus scene in Spec Ops: The Line. It's the first time in all of the genocidal acts I've performed in games that I felt any sort of remorse. I can see why they banned it from being used in warfare in real life.
