    Here I am, ten years old. Just got home school. Figured I’d get some prince of Persia in before my parents get home. I just got a soundblaster 2.0 and I’ve got BIG speakers, enjoying the amazing sounds at high volume. I’m puzzling, exploring, getting used to there being piles of bones here and there. I’m backtracking through level 3 and this skeleton fucking rises and draws its sword with an eery sound. I’m shitting my pants here and reactively press the reset button on the computer to get out of this.

    • Aeris’ death in FF7

    • Kratos motorboating titties as the first thing you see in GoW 1 or 2 (not sure which anymore)

    • Psycho Mantis reading “your mind” in MGS1

    • Punching a mountain into space at the end of Jade Empire

    • Suplexing a ghost train in FF6

    • The entirety of Chrono Trigger

    • “Together, we’ll devour the very gods!” - Rykard, Elden Ring

    • Tim Curry leaving earth to go to space in Red Alert 3

    I swear I had more, but the moment I started typing, my mind went completely blank and just fishing THESE back out was a struggle. 😩

    I don’t know if this counts as a “scene” but the installer for Red Alert 2.

    This was my first time experiencing a game installation experience like this and also probably my last time.

    Launching the installer for Red Alert 2 and getting greeted with voice acting, game art and hype music was just so unexpected for me back then and really hyped me up.

    It’s such a crazy experience, but it’s the type of experience that will likely never come back.

    why would I have taken a screenshot of something I’d never forget? screenshots are for things I’d otherwise be forgetting

    but anyway, it’s the scene from THUG where Eric fucking Sparrow steals credit for the chopper trick

    I don’t have any screenshots. Two that stick with me were:

    The entire opening sequence for FF 10. It was hype for 2014 and still hits:

    FF 10

    And my very first playthrough in Skyrim. The part where you open the door to Bleak Falls Barrow’s inner chamber. As you step through and start taking in the scene, the bats come flying out. Skyrim has a lot of jank but that was a very well crafted scene and sets the tone for the rest of the game.

    I really only use lemmy on my phone, so I’m not coming with a screen shot, sorry. Plus it would be hard to capture the context in one screen especially if you haven’t played the game.

    But The Siege of Yarikawa in ghost of Tsushima was an all time gaming moment for me. So much so that I knew it as it was happening and now I call my other awesome gaming moments Yarikawa moments.

    Bioshock infinite

    I think these days bioshock infinite isn’t seen as that great of a game by modern standards but back when the game was first released I went into the game blind after playing the first game.

    The introduction of the main setting of BioShock infinite blew me away. I didn’t expect it and I really loved the way the game introduces you to the world. Bioshock infinite probably had one of the strongest beginnings of any game I’ve played.
