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.

I kept wikipedia and several historical record sites open playing Like a Dragon Ishin. They had fun with the historical fiction and I got more out of understanding the history simultaneous to the fictional plot.

Ishin was a great ride from start to finish. I loved reading some of the real accounts. Like Oryō was mostly known for running through the Inn half naked to warn Ryōma of assassins.
