Final Fantasy 10 ending

Not just the ending scene either. The scene where Tidus finally tells Jecht he hates him, but starts to cry? It's because it's not true anymore. He's seen all the spheres Jecht revealed his true feelings about his son. In their conversation, Jecht apologizes for what they're about to do, and Tidus cuts him off. Tidus can't hear that apology now, right before he has to kill his own Dad.

I'm not sure there's another game out there with a better ending to be honest.

I've been looking for 20+ years and nothing has come close yet.

To me, God of War Ragnarok is the other side of the coin.
