History Heartwarming / WolfensteinIITheNewColossus

** Somewhere between this trope and TearJerker is Grace's thanks if you find [[spoiler:Spesh's final letter to her]] in the post-game Roswell city assassination sidequest.

** And the reason BJ went home to begin with - [[spoiler: to fetch the ring that his mother had given him so he could give it to Anya]].
* Right after [[spoiler:the resistance give their live broadcast, B.J. retrieves his mother's ring off of Engel's corpse, and uses it to propose to Anya, who seemingly accepts[[note]]the camera cuts out right before we get confirmation[[/note]]]].

* When BJ comes [[spoiler:BackFromTheDead]], [[LovedByAll everyone on the Eva's Hammer is glad to see you.]] Everyone.
** Of particular note, of course, is Anya, [[spoiler: who wouldn't let ''anything'', even Death itself, keep her and BJ apart]].

* Throughout the game, Max can be seen coloring on slats of wood. Near the end, they're shown [[spoiler: as part of a wall mural [[ParentalSubstitute of Klaus]]]].
** [[spoiler: In life, Klaus had a swatiska tattoo, which he kept as a MarkOfShame and intended to have removed once the Nazis were defeated. He didn't live to see his work completed, but his picture in the mural has no tattoo. Apparently, Max knew how his adoptive father would want to be remembered.]]

* BJ comforting Wyatt [[spoiler:following his bad trip and attempted suicide.]] Not only is seeing Wyatt back on something of an even keel good to see, BJ caps the scene with some quiet but plainly heartfelt words.

* When BJ comes [[spoiler: BackFromTheDead,]] [[HundredPercentAdorationRating everyone on the Eva's Hammer is glad to see you.]] Everyone.

-->'''BJ:''' Hey, Wyatt? I love you, man.

*** Of particular note was [[https://youtu.be/wNBz6fdULmc his bringing her into the barn to watch a rat drown in a mop bucket]]. He's downright gleeful about it, as the rats have been eating their grain and pooping in their cupboards, but Billie is ''horrified'' and begs him to help it. Just as the rat starts to sink, B.J. kicks the bucket over, with the rat starting to breathe after a bit of a delay. On that day, Billie taught B.J. that GoodFeelsGood, and likely pulled him completely away from his father's influence.

* After BJ's recovery while Set is giving him a diagnosis, Max walks into the room and sees BJ standing, healthy and well. Max immediately rushes to BJ's side and hugs him. Given all the people Max has lost up to that point, it must have been the greatest thing to the big lug to see at least one friend back [spoiler: from the dead.]]

* Even after all the shit [[AbusiveParents Frau Engel]] put her through, Sigrun still refuses to directly partake in killing her own mother.

* BJ visiting his family home is mostly a tearjerker, ''especially'' when it involves [[CompleteMonster Rip Blazkowicz]]. However, the man did do one thing right - when Billy was suffering from night terrors, dreaming of monsters coming to kill his mother, Rip hands him a BB gun and goes down to the basement to hunt them down, allowing Billy to rest easy.
