I’ve cried really hard to the track “Confronting Myself” from Celeste, which counts as “because of a video game” even though I wasn’t playing it at the time.
Tap for spoiler
I was off my SSRI meds at the time, and it seriously broke me up listening to how the characters’ instruments and motifs and the buildup and release of tension in the track mirror the kind of dialogue they’re in when it plays. It’s also a climactic scene with a lot of mental health allegory going on at the same time, which really adds to the emotions here.

I’m crying again now thanks
Celeste is beautiful. I also cried during the game
