The emotional video game thread

[tatochypz]

Would have been worse if they'd gone with the original idea of Conker putting a gun to his head.

I didn't get too affected by the ending because, I always thought, there would be a sequel and Conker would figure out a way to contact a programmer again to bring Berry back to life. Truly the most depressing thing is that it's unlikely we'll ever see Conker get another game like this again.

I think the fact that this was also one of Rare's last games with Nintendo makes it even worse too. It's like if they somehow looked into the future and decided to go out in the most bleakest way possible.

Whats even sadder about Bad fur day? It never got a sequel.

I know this might sound a blasphemous, but to be honest...I think it's better off as a one and done type of story.

The reason that I say this is because when you really think about it, the whole poignancy of it all drives it home. Imagine just how horrible it would be to be in Conker's position; not only have you completely botched your one chance to revive your girlfriend, but you've also become the very reluctant ruler of a bunch of people that you don't want to be around or even like, leaving you to ponder just how different things could've turned out if you hadn't got drunk off your ass. BFD isn't truly about telling as many absurd, crude, and vulgar jokes as possible as much as it is the story of a guy who makes a really bad decision and ends up paying the ultimate price for it. A sequel, while it would definetely be nice, would kind of dampen that impact, if you get what I mean.
