Sad Video Game Music to Make you Cry

This one is dedicated to my cat who passed away recently, I will miss you...

About the mix itself, it's full of sad yet calm songs. So, besides the emotional damage, it's quite nice for relaxing. 2 years ago, I made the first version of this video, but sadly I lost the original file. Therefore I recreated this new version from scratch, and I put in many different songs that weren't in the original.

He's made art for so many different games, it's insane!
I put separate links for each piece of art at the bottom of the description

No way, you just gotta start with that piece? It's an immediate emotional gut punch.

[Sleepyhead_]

The Mario Galaxy ones were a blast of nostalgia that made me really sad, but Final Duet being the last one really isn't fair 😭

[TheRedzeth]

Honestly just great music to space out to with a book in your hands

[cassandras]

Thank you for this beautiful selection. My cat passed away 2 months ago so I understand how you feel.
With time it will hurt less and the good memories will always be cherished.
Good luck and thank you ❤

[DandyLiger]

My sympathies to you. My cat passed two weeks ago, just short of 18 years ♥️

[santiagoescobar]

hey, my cat also passed away like 6 months ago, I still think about it every day and i dont think I can get over it. I was listening to this while thinking about it and then I read the description. I dont know, it was weird and kind of pretty

[thetadpoleprince]

I wish you were allowed to put Squaresoft songs here without trouble because two of my favorite sad songs are "tears of the stars, thoughts of the people" from Xenogears, and "From the edge of despair" from Final Fantasy 7.
Great list, I'm definitely going to be listening to this for a bit.

[JustMe_reader]

I'm so happy you included "For River"!! I just recently played To The Moon and sewed the platypus plushie in honor of it :) Also huge thank you for making these long videos, they're so, so appreciated!♥

[oeil_drt]

Love you OmniST. Hope everything goes well!

[wyodragon]

Your playlists are the best Omni, thank you for this one!

[ptyz]

i would give more likes to this video if i could, thanks for always making banger playlists that hit right in the feels. condolences to your elgato 🙏

[hewo]

As a person who loves ambient, sad music, and video games, this is what i've wanted for a while. Glad to see games I love like Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, and Ori. Hope your doing well!

[josemourato]

amazing playlist... Your cat had the best friend in the world, thank you for this tribute and inspiration. A lot of these songs make me happy as well, they give this sense of endlessness. An end is always a start of something new. maybe you knew this while making it, or maybe just deep down? Either way, I hope you will feel better soon

[pascalo_]

I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope you're doing okay. I know how it feels to lose a little buddy.. Also, this compilation is straight up beautiful, excellent choices as usual :)

[io]

My brother in christ that last song was a low blow for my emotions

[Themarcuz]

Love theme from Mother 3 was the most beautiful and unexpected track you could choose, thanks for adding such a moving game in this mix

[_Ozi_]

I'm sorry for your cat, I know how hard it is to lose a furred friend.. May he rest in peace

About the mix, I found it really melancholic, especially with that Xenoblade 2 music as the very first one.

Amazing work as always, stay strong my friend

[angi]

I always love your playlists so much!! (And now
excuse me I have to cry for 3 hours. Jk jk)
Beautiful mix to help during sad times <3

[elkolombardi]

omg this is one of the best playlists I've ever seen, thank you so much! Damn I wanna cry so bad 😭

[mahna_manah]

Thanks for this, I just found it but you uploaded it about a month after the passing my beloved cat. My sympathies, but I rest assured they knew they were loved deeply.
