Too many to count but the most recent one that sticks out in my mind is my first encounter with The Depths in Tears of the Kingdom. I had kinda glossed over the initial introduction you get as you travel to Lookout Landing and figured the big hole you see is just a regular cave (I didn’t really pay attention to whatever the NPC there had to say). Anyway, fast forward about 10 hours and I find some lowly well and hop down it, expecting to land in a small little pit. Instead a 30 second plummet and horn swell later I find myself in complete darkness, getting murderated by moblins and struggling unsuccessfully to stumble my way toward whatever the hell that big light bulb thing was in the distance. Was a fantastic surprise. 11/7 would plummet again.
Another poignant memory is the final mission in A Plague Tale: Requiem—freakin’ heartbreaking.
That first descent blew my mind as I was only aware that we had sky islands as an added later to Hyrule so to go to the depths for the first time just blew my mind.
And yes A Plague Take Requiem ending is pretty tragic but such an excellent game and vast improvement over the first.
