My favorite games are Omori, Disco Elysium and Outer Wilds. I cried for hours at the end of those games, and I think the common point in them is high-quality emotional writing and stellar OST (music really affect me) and my attachment to the characters.
I also found that my taste in movies was similar (Hana-bi by Takeshi Kitano is my favorite movie)
I've been trying to find something similar, so has anybody any recommendation?
I'd like to add that I basically hated Nier Automata (way too pretentious imo) and Before your Eyes (I wasn't a fan of the game concept, and found the story pretty weak), and really loved the horror aspects of Omori.
I also heard about To the moon, but games talking about disease are hard for me to enjoy

To the Moon was great. It's made with RPG Maker and it shows, but it hits hard.

I started playing this game about a month after my dad died of cancer, I had to just nope out entirely. I could dig my teeth into Stellaris or build a flying guitar in Kerbal space program, but I couldn't handle To the Moon or Firewatch.

Oh hey, there's a recommendation, play Firewatch, it's got some big feelings too.
