Games with characters you miss most after completion. (sh.itjust.works)

It's a bitter sweet feeling afterward, but I love it when a game has characters where, after the game is over, I miss seeing a part of their lives. Be it due to the characters themselves or the interaction they have with one another, exiting their world feels more like a loss than when normally putting a story away.

Are there any games where you experienced similar? While it can be a bitter sweet feeling, I know that it is a sign that I really enjoyed what I was playing and love to find these experiences.

Shenmue & Shenmue II

Even before getting to the story characters I have such vivid memories of all the shop owners, random people and the streets themselves.

I'm very curious about these despite knowing that time hasn't been kind to them.

Some of the gameplay hasn't aged well but the look and feel of the game is still one of the greatest for me. The HD remaster from a few years ago is the best way to play.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
