For me, it was Princess Rosalina’s backstory in Super Mario Galaxy.

Have probably done that over a bunch of games over the years but can’t remember much of them but the one game that immediately comes to mind is spiritfarer. Had so many touching farewells and some of them were too relatable to be not shed a tear. Man Atul left me speechless for days, I still need more hugs.
Binding of Isaac: Repentance, the true ending. It hits harder because it’s the first time we got a definitive ending since the original game came out in 2011.

Half of Kaim’s dreams in Lost Odyssey, and the cliff flashback.
Hades has some emotional moments. That game is so well-written. Trying to avoid spoilers, but the first time escaping was one, then the nth time escaping where they play that awesome track was another.
Portal endings. Especially the ending of Portal 2.
I cry every time I finish portal 2 because there’s no sequel
Brothers. Damn ending making me feel empty…
Man. The moment in there where you have to actually do the digging… Still haunts me. It’d be a cutscene in any other game, but the impact of the change in the control scheme and everything in that moment. Brutal.
Exactly that! Moving that joystick and nothing happens… damn
Ff7 when aerith died.
Kairi’s heart sequence in Kingdom Hearts
“Kairi… Kairi’s inside me?”
(sorry I had to, the actual cutscene is really good)
Hl2 EP2’s ending
The epilogue of Life is Strange: Before the Storm
Subsequent playthroughs of Ace Combat 4, knowing the full story of Yellow 13 and 4 with the Spanish guitar accompaniment (even though blah blah war crimes etc). I guess because I know I did it while jamming to rock ballads with qaam spam. Mihaly of AC7 was such a weak arc by comparison.
Assassin’s Creed Unity in the post-Templar part, my 3rd experience with Ubisoft avoiding happy endings but my first Assassins creed
The ending of Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, it was just so cool and and so well done. What a great final boss when compared to Breath of the wild.
The intro to Ori and the Blind Forest, and the end of Ori and the Will of the Wisps.
Ori and the Will of the Wisps has some great emotional moments that are complemented by a fantastic soundtrack. Learning about Shriek’s backstory after being hunted by her the entire game was just too much.
