Line #3 SickeninglySweethearts/VideoGames


1	----
2	* ''Franchise/AceAttorney'': Phoenix plays one-half of this equation in the first case of ''VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyTrialsAndTribulations''. Too bad for him that his sweetheart isn't anywhere near as into him as she pretends. [[spoiler:Did you buy that? Actually, that was the twin sister of the woman who really loved him with the same passion as he loved her, but you don't know until the very end of the game.]]
3	* A mod to ''VideoGame/BaldursGateIIThroneOfBhaal'' adds a character who seeks out romance with Imoen. In one memorable exchange, they use so many consecutive pet names for each other that even the good-aligned party members find themselves tempted to agree with Sarevok's comment: "Say the word, and I will kill them both. ''Please.''"
4	* In ''VideoGame/CoffeeTalk Episode 2: Hibiscus and Butterfly'', Lua and Baileys exchange sweet compliments, to Hyde's disgust when he enters the café.
5	--> '''Hyde:''' [[INeedAFreakingDrink I'm going to need something real spicy to wash this down.]]
6	* ''Franchise/DragonAge'':
7	** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'':
8	*** If you romance Alistair or Leliana, the other party members may accuse you of this, even TeamMom Wynne.
9	*** If you help two Dalish elves get together, they begin acting like this, while [[DeadpanSnarker Morrigan]] [[MemeticMutation disapproves]].
10	--->"Does anyone else feel the urge to vomit? No? 'Tis just me?"
11	*** And if Oghren's also in the party, he responds with:
12	--->"Naw, I'm right there with ya, babe."
13	** Merrill's romance arc in ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII'', especially on the Friendship path. Varric mentions that it'd be ''too'' adorable if she weren't [[BlackMagicianGirl a Blood Mage]]. Bethany asks if they have pet names during the "Legacy" mission, and a Sarcastic Hawke immediately comes up with some that make her regret asking.
14	--->'''Hawke:''' It's hard to imagine anyone more lovable than you.\
15	'''Merrill:''' That's so untrue. ''I'' can think of someone.
16	** Continuing the trend, ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'' has The Inquisitor and Josephine be like this if a romance blooms between them. Every single kiss has Josephine [[FootPopping popping her foot,]] there's a lot of stammering, blushing and cuddling, and the key scene that cements them as a couple is when the Inquisitor must duel the man she's been betrothed to (there are no hard feelings, of course, once he realises how deeply they care about each other and how much of a dick he'd have to be to stand in the way of true love).
17	* Clive and Mathilda of the ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGaiden'''s remake are basically entirely different people whenever they get to talk to each other, to the point Mathilda's BloodKnight tendencies are a big turn on to Clive who ''encourages her to make a show out of decimating their foes'', all the while being dramatic about it.
18	* ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'': Lampshaded in the bonus track on the soundtrack album, which has one lyric comparing the Boyfriend and the Girlfriend's social media messages to a game of ''TabletopGame/CandyLand''.
19	* ''VideoGame/GalaxyAngel'': If Tact chooses Ranpha, this is how their relationship develops. In the second trilogy, ''VideoGame/GalaxyAngelII'', Kazuya happens to catch them cuddling by Tact's chair and sharing a shamelessly corny love talk. He gags.
20	* PlayedForLaughs in the good ending to ''VisualNovel/HeartOfTheWoods''. Tara gets annoyed at how "sappy" Madison and Abigail are acting with each other, prompting Morgan to say, "Then [[BetaCouple we'll]] just have to outdo them, right?" and kiss Tara.
21	* In the ''VideoGame/JakAndDaxter'' series, [[WeaselMascot Daxter]] and [[GeniusDitz Tess]] act like this. The smooching is pretty much non-existent [[InterspeciesRomance thanks to the species difference]], but the rest of the symptoms are there (baby talk, stupid nicknames, cuddling).
22	* In ''VideoGame/KittyPowersMatchmaker'', Romantic candidates like keeping their romance light and fluffy, and they don't like it whenever the client's ex shows up because they believe that they're interrupting their date. In ''Kitty Powers' Love Life'', they like doing sweet things with their partner such as cuddling and holding hands.
23	* The Dancing Couple from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'' (and later, ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask''), who seem completely oblivious to anything other than each other. While playing their mini-games in ''Majora's Mask'', you actually get the option to ''shoot them'' to increase your time limit. Much fun! And if you win, they say "That's annoying, so let's show off even more!"
24	* In ''VideoGame/LoveAndPies'', Amelia and Joe have always been sweet towards each other, but back in high school, they used to kiss right in front of Yuka, to her disgust.
25	* ''Franchise/MassEffect'':
26	** Bafflingly enough, female Shepard and Garrus - ''especially'' Garrus - dive headlong into this in the ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'' Citadel DLC. He makes the password to disarm your apartment's security system "I HEART GARRUS." After booby trapping it during conversations like these:
27	--->'''Garrus:''' Shepard, sweetie... love of my life, indulge your crazy boyfriend. I need to know you're safe.\
28	'''Shepard:''' If it'll make you feel better, honey.\
29	'''Zaeed:''' [''listening in''] Oh, [[GetARoom go get a room]]. God knows this place has enough of them.
30	** ''VideoGame/MassEffectAndromeda:'' Sara Ryder and a romanced Suvi, much to the exasperation of Suvi's co-worker Kallo. He may approve of his friend being in love, but he doesn't like having to listen to the two of them flirt constantly.
31	--->'''Kallo:''' Do I really have to listen to this?\
32	'''Sara:''' Yes. Yes, you do.
33	* In ''VideoGame/MonkeyIsland'', Guybrush has an almost unlimited number of gushingly sweet nicknames for his love interest Elaine, such as "plunder bunny" (which is also slang for a plush toy hollowed out for use by smugglers. So... maybe not quite as sweet as it sounds).
34	* There are shades of this combined with {{Destructive Romance}} in the relationship between [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Sweetheart]] and [[IHaveManyNames Captain Spaceboy/Space Boyfriend/Space Husband]] in ''VideoGame/{{OMORI}}''. Of particular sickeningness is the pet name that Spaceboy gave to Sweetheart: [[spoiler:''Sweet Jelly-filled Donut''.]]
35	* ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' has several of these couples, who would constantly talk about "lovey-dovey" they are. They are often found in places like graveyards and abandoned ships to invoke IntimacyViaHorror.
36	* ''VideoGame/SamuraiWarriors'' - Oichi and Nagamasa are like this, much to Hideyoshi's irritation (they got the last laugh, though; he married one of their daughters as a concubine, and proceeded to indulge her every whim).
37	* HappilyMarried couple Maeda Toshiie and his wife Matsu from ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara''. On one occasion Toshi came to Matsu's rescue on the battlefield, and they shared a tender moment together, leaving their opponent Yukimura at a complete loss of what to do.
38	-->'''Yukimura:''' [[LeaveTheTwoLovebirdsAlone S-should I just leave them alone?...]]
39	* ''VideoGame/TheSims'': Sims with a high mutual long-term attraction will get completely soppy in the presence of their loved ones. Spontaneous serenades and leaping into each other's arms is cute the first time. The [[OverlyLongGag 18th time in a row]], not so much.
40	* In the ending of ''Videogame/SouthParkTheFracturedButWhole'' [[spoiler:the New Kid's parents become this after the New Kid's trip to the past made them come clean about their origins. Being honest with their kid takes away the stress that they coped with using drugs, leading to them kicking their habits. Their marriage in the new present (in stark contrast to their unhappy marriage in the old present) is a sickeningly mushy one.]]
41	* ''VideoGame/StoryOfSeasons'':
42	** ''Story of Seasons'' couples have a tendency to be HappilyMarried, but the award for soppiest couple in the series probably goes to... Jake and Colleen, Maya's parents in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree of Tranquility]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]''. Jake compares ''everything'' to his beloved Colleen and absolutely lives to spoil her, at one point even [[spoiler: using the Wizard's crystal ball to read her mind to find out exactly what she wants]]. They're also constantly holding hands and cuddling. This probably explains why Maya is TheCutie--spending all her life around that kind of sappiness, what else would she be?
43	** Though Camilla and Charles from ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonANewBeginning A New Beginning]]'' also certainly count. While Camilla is somewhat soft and quiet, her husband goes full out romance mode at just the slightest ''mention'' of his wife. They occassionally mention how he drowns her in roses and other presents. Amusingly, their daughter is a sweet girl, but that she has a little crush on local Bad Boy Allen gives her father the creeps as he is fully aware that Allen would NOT exactly live for his beloved alone.
44	* In ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsJudgment'' [[Anime/BlueCometSPTLayzner David]] will remark he considers [[Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico Minato and Tsukumo's reactions to each other]], albeit while they are kinda heartwarming, they still [[SickeninglySweet trigger his gag reflex.]]
45	* ''VideoGame/TalesSeries'':
46	** ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphoniaDawnOfTheNewWorld'' has [[ApologisesAlot Emil]] [[TheWoobie Castagnier]] and [[ClingyJealousGirl Marta]] [[{{Tsundere}} Lualdi]].
47	** In ''VideoGame/TalesOfHearts'', Shing and Kohak. Other party members occasionally complain about it. At one point Hisui and Beryl actually raise their RelationshipValues through their mutual annoyance at the main couple's sheer couple-ness.
48	* ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' has the dog monster BattleCouple Dogamy and Dogaressa, who are a HappilyMarried couple. They will nuzzle each other and say silly things during the battle, like declare that they were the #2 Nose Nuzzle Champs of '98. [[spoiler: Who was #1? Toriel and Asgore. This was also the origin of his nickname "Fluffybuns" -- she once called him that into a microphone she didn't realize was on. Asgore, being the pushover that he is, rolled with it.]]
49	** The player can also create a new couple which is extremely cute, even though not hammy, around each other: [[spoiler: [[HoYay the two knights]] from the Lava Area]].
50	* Weaponised in ''VideoGame/YakuzaLikeADragon'': summoning a K-Drama actor has him recreate an utterly cliche and sentimental love scene wherein he embraces his co-star under falling snow with lots of 'I love you's. All the enemies who bear witness to it ''take extra damage''.
51	* Drizzelda and Ray O'Light from ''VideoGame/YokaiWatch'' are head-over-heels for one another, complete with LoveBubbles and gushy pet-names. A boss fight in ''VideoGame/YokaiWatch2'' revolves around a bitter single yokai being mad at their lovey-dovey attitude. They have a child together by ''VideoGame/YokaiWatch4''.
