What game or scene in a game took you the longest time before you understood the meaning behind it? (alien.top)

When I was young and had a super nintendo I loved playing Super Mario RPG.

I'm playing the remake and I'm at the scene after defeating Valentina. Mallow goes into the castle and Mario was left standing outside.

Back then I didn't know why Mario pulled out an umbrella and it rained. I just realised after 20 years of playing the original that Mario knew it was going to rain because whenever Mallow cries it rains; Mario knew that Mallow would get all emotional when meeting his parents for the first time.

Blew my mind.

Definitely Ocarina of time and how much it slaps on Link's face the idea of being a "man" or "an adult" back when he is a kid, that was toxic af and something that sadly happens to many kids (myself included), and it plays out perfectly when you realize he just lost all the years of his childhood transitioning to becoming a true adult. Having replayed and finished OoT for the first time as an adult, I can look at it and say that shit hit way too close to home
