Which cutscene is and will forever be burned into your memory?
Cutscenes can be memorable for many reasons, such as their emotional impact, their humor, their shock value, or their artistic quality. Some cutscenes are so iconic that they have become part of gaming culture and history.
Behold. Everything’s at the bottom of the sea. Gone is the magical kingdom of Zeal, and all the dreams and ambitions of its people. I once lived there…But I was another person then.
@original_reader There are couple of scenes. I choose these two. I just don't want tell too much more, anyone who reads this and played the games, know what happened.
a) oldschool 2D sprites: Final Fantasy 6 on SNES from 1994. This game has too many to choose from, but here is one without spoiling. Celes, when she was alone and there was no more hope.
b) oldschool rendered CD sequence: Final Fantasy 7 on Playstation 1 from 1997. The Aeris scene, which I don't want to spoil.
“Shut up. The cycle of nature and your stupid plan don’t mean a thing. ##### is gone. ##### will no longer talk, no longer laugh, cry… or get angry… What about us…what are WE supposed to do? What is this pain? My fingers are tingling. My mouth is dry. My eyes are burning!”
I felt so many emotions simultaneously when I first saw this. It motivated me right down to the final mission. Up to today this is one of my pivotal gaming moments.
