INCORRECT. (Well, okay, it's not DA, but still ... this is in the "future" with respect to when DAO came out.)

Okay, here's a DA one. There, now your OP is proven INCORRECT.

Mordin's death in ME3 wrecks me every time. Bioware is still good at this.

Bao Dur's "the longest you have looked at me...", leaving Jaxo or Kaiden/Ashley to die, Mordin's death, Thane's prayer, Anders' confession are more feels for me personally. I liked DAO, but it was not heavy on emotions.
There are also some high emotional impact triumph scenes, but I take it this is about heartbreak heroics?
As far as games go, I think the Exile still gets the most heartbreaking protagonist's fate for me, rather than the Warden, though I like the Warden with US.

DA2 was big on these: returning home from the Deep Roads, Leandra's death, the end of the Legacy DLC, sailing to the Gallows in the dark.

The reason they won't do it is because having the option to kill off the Warden has caused them several problems. This is the reason why, even if you don't leave Hawke in the Fade, they're essentially written out of the story as being stated to be hanging out with Varric in Kirkwall, helping him to run things. It's as happy and peaceful an ending as living Hawke will get, without any issues like the Calling to worry about.
At any rate, whatever emotions are dependent on the player and entirely subjective. While you may think that the Warden's death a huge emotional moment, doesn't mean everyone feels that way. For example, many felt strong emotions at Leandra's death, or the parents from the Cousland origin, but I never did because I never felt a strong attachment to those characters. I have a strong attachment to my Inquisitor, far greater than Warden or Hawke, and if I'm forced to kill him off I'll be devastated.

The worst I have ever felt over any video game, ever, was in DAI when Varric said 'where's Hawke?'
Not that sacrificing my favourite Warden didn't give me All The Feels, but there are lots of things in more recent BioWare games that also do. (All the mentions of Mordin in this thread are like daggers in my heart. I was at a panel at PAX Australia where one of the panelists said 'had to be me' and half the room made a distressed noise.)

saddest moment. When I saw there wasn't more of a selection for hairstlyes in DAI
I don't know. Hmmm. Meredith dying. Killing the Archdemon. Dancing with Billy Idol instead of with LI even though the player can dance with LI at the end of the quest.
Ser Cauthrien, Mhairi, Lilley dying. All 3 voiced by AWR who voiced femquisitor
My Warden wasn't able to join in with Leliana when she started singing.
Not able to wear robes in DAI when playing as a mage
Loghain not being available earlier as a companion

It was *weird* not being able to even make any. I'm not partial to any of the Inq-specific blends of standard armors, the one I tolerate best is the one with the cummerbund and "tails". I at least wanted the Chasind robes. Give me chains and fur, dammit!

For me, the most emotional moment of DA was the ending of DA2, when I'm Not Calling You a Liar started playing right after Varric's story about Hawke ended. It made me immeasurably sad to know that after everything my Hawke had done for Kirkwall, she had to flee the city right away if helped mages/a year later if helped Templars A lot of interesting interpretations about the song on Youtube, for example:
Other emotional moments: Death of Leandra. Final kiss with your romance interest before the battle at the Gallows. I was so moved when Isabela said something like: "It's just my luck, I finally find someone I want to be with and all hell breaks loose." The empty Hawke mansion in Act 3 if your romance interest doesn't move in. Actually the whole story about Hawke, which is like a classic tragedy.
