User blog comment:Stealth Cl0wn/The deaths that hit you the hardest (Massive spoilers)/@comment-3399608-20120413163519

For some reason, Grunt's hit me pretty hard. I didn't even like him that much, but the music really pulled me in and I actually cried a single tear. Legion's was really sad because he would never get to see the peace he brokered. Mordin's made me sad, but it was a happy death (Cured the Genophage), he finally set things right T_T But the addition of "Scientist Salarian" took something out of the moment. Also, this was the only scene where I turned on subtitles because by then, the Reaper's blasts were interrupting banter and I accidentally read it before it actually happened, because the subtitles were distracting, as they are for most people (damn you, science!) The Illusive Man's was sad because he was such a strong man and leader and he's what Shepard could've become. Even to the end, he just wanted what was best for Humanity. Anderson's was sad because it really catered to me. I have a rough relationship with my father and when he said he was proud of me I teared up a little. Despite not thinking I had built a connection with him at all (hell, he's barely in any of the games), that one line made me love him, and then he dies.
