History Heartwarming / StarWarsTheOldRepublic

** When making your way aboard the ship, we have this exchange.
--->'''Lana''': Ready to commandeer, Commander?\\
'''Theron''': Did you really just say that?

* A meta example, but after the death of Carrie Fisher, players gathered at House Organa to hold memorial services for the actress. Even moreso, higher-level players were killing the NPCs on Alderaan so the lower-level players could pay tribute; a rare example of the Sith and Jedi working together for a common cause.

->'''The Outlander:''' "I know I can't make the pain stop, but I'll be here to help you. Every step of the way."

* If Theron's father [[spoiler:Jace Malcom]] gets killed. Theron would become grief stricken by his death. The Outlander tell him that they cannot make the pain stop, but they will be there to help him every step of the way.

* Despite his [[spoiler: betrayal in the past]], Malavai Quinn still searched for the Wrath when he was gone. When Minister Lorman wanted the wrath to stay missing, Quinn refused and was locked up in prison until Darth Acina pardoned him. He remained loyal to the Wrath even if he/she did not forgive him.

** This comes full-circle on the planet Rishi, when [[spoiler: the former Minister of Intelligence has managed to get Watcher Two out of Republic custody and requests your help in the last step, eventually sending her off to be deprogrammed and hoping she has a happy life outside of the espionage game]]. The Agent can even level a form of IfYouDoAnythingToHurtHer at the conclusion, which will be happily agreed to.

* After gaining enough affection with Kaliyo, she gives you a mission to help her bail a friend out of jail. It turns out that [[spoiler: this friend has a bounty on her head that Kaliyo wants to collect on, all due to a [[DisproportionateRetribution perceived slight]]. If you opt for the LS option and let the girl go, Kaliyo is pissed at you.]] The ''only'' option that doesn't result in a loss of affection is telling her that "[[YoureBetterThanYouThinkYouAre You're better than this, Kaliyo]]." Given she's an AxCrazy anarchist who hates authority, the fact that this gets through to her is oddly touching.

* If you spare [[spoiler:Senya]] in Chapter I. [[spoiler: A redeemed Arcann]] will join the Alliance, grateful for you trying to rescue her. It's also more heartwarming if the player chooses to forgive him despite all the atrocities he has done in the past.

I feel bad for [[spoiler:Torian]] - and everyone else who died fighting for the Alliance. I even feel bad for some of Vaylin's people... they can't all be monsters. But I don't like to think about that. I'd rather focus on the future. Our future.\\

* If you spare [[spoiler:Senya]] in Chapter I. [[spoiler: A redeemed Arcann]] will join the Alliance, grateful for you trying to rescue her. Your former enemy will stand by your side as you defeat Vaylin.

I know I thank you on the battlefield, but it didn't seem like enough. I need to tell you how lucky I am to have you in my life.\\

---> [[spoiler:''My husband is Sergeant Kobbeth of the Republic military. He told me an Imperial saved him from those horrible Esh-kha on Belsavis, then spared his life. I told him he should do something to thank you, but he said it would look bad for a Republic soldier to correspond with "the enemy". So I'm sending this message on his behalf. I don't consider you "the enemy". In my eyes, you're a hero. We can never repay your act of kindness, but I wanted to send you something to let you know we appreciate everything you did. Trea'']]

** For Warrior, meeting Pierce, who never doubted that you would return, and, upon being offered a life-threatening place in the Alliance, fighting the Eternal Empire, instead of the cushy job with the Outreach Bureau, answers: "There's no place I'd rather be than fighting by your side, my lord."

** Vette's is particularly touching if you, as a Sith Warrior, have romanced her, hearkening back to your first meeting on Korriban.
