[QUOTE="kitsune9, post: 5461831, member: 18507"] For me, no I haven't been moved to tears. I've never vested myself into rpgs so much that I'm truly emotionally engaged in the game because that area requires a certain "connectivity" into the game that when the loss occurs, I'm likely to be more annoyed or upset than driven to tears. Have I made players cry? Not intentionally. Two of my players were very nice ladies back in the days of 2e. One of them was a big time gamer and the other joined because her husband played, but she got into it a lot herself. Well, the gamer girl played a paladin who had a pseudo dragon companion who loved to "steal" gems from the group. Well, one session was that the paladin sacrificed herself against some kind of big vile monster and she got crunched. Everyone gathered around their fallen comrade unsure of what to do next, so I roleplayed the that the psuedo dragon was giving back the gems and placing them on the fallen paladin's chest. That made the girls cry. I personally don't go for the tear-jerking moments. If it just happen to happens, it does, but it's not something that I will plan. [/QUOTE]
