Topic: Post-Game Feels

Have you ever finished a game and you were in awe of the experience or severely disappointed. Well when you finish the game you can describe how awesome it was or just say how you feel now that you finished the game.

Well I just Finished Gunman Clive.I played the game on Hard mode so that meant if i got hit 2 times,i die and start from the finish.So once i finished the game i was happy at how much fun i had with this at only $2 (I only bought the game because that was my leftover money from what i spent on Mega Man 2.) It wasn't and wont be my favorite game that i played on the 3DS or maybe not my favorite 3DS download but i had a fun time with it.Now i just need to complete the game with No Damage! on all levels.

Maybe its just me, but right after i finish a game i feel the need to talk about it.

Final Fantasy X - This was the first game I played where I was sad to see the experience end. I just really got invested in the characters & their well being, and I was sad knowing that I'd probably never have another adventure with them again (of course it did get a sequel, which I still haven't played, but I wasn't expecting that to happen given how FF games are usually one shot), made all the more melancholy by the fact that the game's ending wasn't completely cheery & rosy.

It was still a magical experience that I won't ever forget, though.

Probably Mass Effect series. So many hours put in, all that time with the characters, and the big final fight to save earth and the galaxy. Then it ended so sour and bitter, with too many unknowns. It felt like a draining experience. It was sad to see it all end like it did. I really can't think of any other game experience where I actually cared about all the characters and their outcomes. It was a long road traveled, and fortunately the extended cut was later released clearing some things up, and I felt better about it. The last DLC released, 'Citadel', was a fine send off with some nice feels.

I may never feel that kind of experience in a game again.

Well today i just finished Mega Man 2. The game was great.Sometimes i was pissed at myself dying but that just made the game funner.I never really used the Power Moves except when it was necessary.This was my first game i played in the Mega Man series and it left a good impression so i'll be playing the rest of the MM games that arrive on the VC.(By the way how many are they going to put on the 3DS VC?)So onward to playing Mega Man 1 on my little brothers 3DS.
I have a feeling i will have alot of fun with this series in the future(it'll help if Capcom would release a new Mega Man game.)

^ The 6 NES games will be on the 3DS eShop for sure, and I assume they'll eventually finish out distributing the Game Boy & GBC games as well.

When I finally beat Super Mario 64 with all 121 stars... I think something may have gotten in my eye when I was watching the ending.

Xenoblade Chronicles was the only game that made me stand up and start clapping when I finished it. :3

I cried at the end of Bit. Trip Flux. After struggling through every Bit. Trip, to hear the bittersweet piano play so softly and beautifully instead of typical Bit. Trip music as I led Commander Video, a strange pixelated friend who I watched grow by my hands, who WAS me, and who I killed, to his grave. It was a journey of guilt, self-reflection, and, in some strange way, love, that brough me to tears in a few seconds. I remember setting down the Wii remote, acknowledging CV's death, and then crying for almost my entire shower afterwards. I can't explain why that moment is so emotional, but somehow it was.

@Happy_Mask :

Yeah, I was incredibly depressed and excited when I beat Xenoblade. I was glad I beat it, but there was this feeling of "What do I do now?" after playing the game every weekend for three months straight. It was rewarding to see the end, but I couldn't help but wish the game was endless.

Pokemon Myatery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky.

Oh, the tears are coming back

And dat ending music!

Kid. Icarus Uprising. That entire game from start to finish was one heck of a roller-coaster ride (in a good way). From the music, to the gameplay, and humor and set pieces. I don't think I had a game in recent memory to be that awesome and keep you in till the end with-out taking a little breather.
Oh, and I loved that little surprise at the end.

Virtue's Last Reward had me with wide eyes by the end. Every dialogue left me with surprise and raised eyebrows. My mind was left tangleing by the end figuring out "What did I just play?" because it was surprisingly detailed, and asks for your full attention. I recommend everyone to play the Zero Escape games.

Bioshock Infinite made me clap for having a good ending. A good ending to me is borderline an oxymoron to me as most endings suck, especially non-happy ones.

I think I did the same for Xenoblade.

The first 3 Assassin's Creeds immediately made me wonder what would happen next (though AC3's entire present day story might have killed that for the series, sadly)

Pikmin 2's ending, no matter how many times I see it, makes my eyes well up. There's just something about the Pikmin singing and flying by the Ship in their Onions one last time that gives off an emotional feel, like that you'll never get to see the Pikmin again, even though that clearly won't be true for much longer with 3 coming out soon.

Metroid Other M was some moderately fun item exploration, followed by 2-3 years of discovering how badly a story can fail the more you think about it or see other people's opinions

The ending by itself wasn't that sad for me (especially since I can guess what will happen next), but that music is some of the most emotional music I've ever heard; stirs those deep emotions man
After finally beating the final boss after like the three hundredth try, I was very relieved and exhausted.

That ending music is so great too; Nintendo should definitely consider orchestrating some Pikmin music sometime in the future...I'd be so happy to hear it!

I get really sad whenever I finish Super Mario Sunshine, I think simply because it was over so quickly, but it's such a great game

Same here! I also get that feeling with the first Galaxy game..

I finished Liberation Maiden a while ago and the game was fun even though it was real short.Also the story wasn't very interesting.At least i was able to get the game for only 5 dollars

I remember being in awe during the times when I first beat Super Mario Galaxy, Yoshi's Island (GBA), and Kid Icarus: Uprising. Y'know, at the end where you see the credits and get a "...I did it..." feel? I got that.

When I was very young, I'd get that feeling after beating the Elite Four in Pokémon with just my starter and listening to this music. (Because I was just too cool to catch other Pokémon apparently )
