History TearJerker / ResidentEvil5

* Evil bastard that he was, Albert Wesker's death was '''not''' well received by the majority of the Resident Evil fandom. Capcom seemed to have anticipated such a reaction with both the creation of Jake Muller, Albert's illigetimate child, and Alex Wesker, Albert's non-biological sister to compensate for Albert's absence. The void since his death is very noticeable, with both antagonists from Resident Evil 6, Derek Simmons and Carla Radames, both not well-received by the fanbase. To this very day, theories persist despite Capcom's [[WordOfGod insistence that Albert perished in the volcano]] that he is still alive and a simple search on Website/YouTube will reveal how hopeful the fans are that one day, Albert will make his return into the series.

** Indeed, it's quite telling that D.C.Douglas, Albert's voice actor 11 years after the game's release, continues to put out videos featuring Albert, voiced by him, to the delight of fans.

** And [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQlx0nOyIH0 this beautiful and sober]] track plays as the result screen is shown. Solemn and subdued music to settle your nerves and bring you out of the intense action you survived.

** Josh Stone takes Doug's death extremely hard. Right after it happens, Josh punches the side of the helicopter and screams "SHIT" angrily before he's forced to take the controls.
** "He was...my friend". Josh sounds just so heartbroken.
** Jill sounds genuinely sincere and sweet as she tells Josh she's sorry for Doug's death and that he "was a brave soldier".

* What makes the [[spoiler: Jill]] battle even more tearjerking is if you're playing as Chris and hit the action button (Square on the [=PS3=], X on the XBOX 360, F on the PC) Chris begging Jill to stop this, but all the while she tries, but can't until Chris or Sheva rip the device off of her.

* The end of the Desperate Escape DLC. Helicopter pilot Doug [[spoiler: bravely holds the line to give Josh and Jill ample time to escape just before he's blown to pieces by a Manjini's rocket]].

* When you finish Lost in Nightmares, you will be shown the cutscene where Jill throws herself through the window, bringing Wesker with her, to save Chris's life. After the latter reaches out for his partner and [[CallMyName calls out her name]], you are rewarded with the results screen which has him doing just that with great sorrow visible on his face.

* How about the people in the Uroboros facility in those pods? They are all people kidnapped from all over the world to be experimented on. If they're rejected, their bodies are dumped out. That one conveyor belt, you know ''that one'', where they jump up to kill you? They're the experiments that are being dumped out. Mixing TearJerker and NightmareFuel together, they will never see their families again, are probably in agony, and half of them are being incinerated ''alive''.

* Speaking of RE 5, remember the documents you can read? How about Village Youth's Diary? It describes how people from the village became Majini through the eyes of one of them. Extremely sad and depressing tale which ends with a storyteller becoming Majini himself.

The music doesn't help either, because it ends up doubling as a sad music of a sort.

** The music doesn't help either; it's exactly the sort of music I would think of if I were forced to [[spoiler: fight my loved ones.]]
*** The track in question is called "Sad but True".

* Despite ''[[VideoGame/ResidentEvil5 5]]'' being so actiony, what really got to this troper was after [[spoiler: you fight Jill. She admits that she couldn't control herself and was forced to do horrid things. And you see part of that when she's wearing the bird mask, like infecting the first Uroboros victim.]]
** Oh, heck, the whole scene with [[spoiler:Jill]] after she's freed of the control device. She seems so physically tired and so very very ''sad''... Maybe it's just a male thing, but that brought out ''all'' of [[Tropers/{{Enchanter468}} this troper]]'s protective instincts. Seriously, she might as well have had [[TheWoobie "Needs Hug Badly"]] written on her forehead.

** I'm not gonna lie, when I went through the conveyor belt with the test subjects, I flipped the switch to stop it, but then stopped and thought about the agony they were in...and flipped the switch back on to bring them the peace of death.
