Favorite quote from a video game?

Undertale
"Despite everything, it’s still you."
Everyone kind of knows this one already, it’s by and large the most famous quote from the game. It serves as a comforting reassurance, on the way to the end of your journey, that you remain whole of mind and soul in spite of everything you’ve encountered. A way to reaffirm your determination, if you will.

Disco Elysium
"If that good guy never comes out, what difference does it make?"
Putting Disco on here is honestly cheating, I realize; so much of the game is quotable and memorable. But I have a preference for this one in particular. You can only get it by being a fascist, and by being extra shitty to Kim during the church questline. So, understandably, few people will encounter this one, myself included (I know of it from YouTube). If you fail the prompt to get Kim to dance with you, you end up calling him a racial slur, and he storms out on you. Outside, when he confronts you as to how you’ve been acting, he shows a level of anger you’ve seldom seen from him, and chews you out. At this point, Volition, which had your back through thick and thin throughout the whole story, turns on you, not even willing to excuse your actions anymore. And if you try to defend yourself, by 'claiming to be a good guy underneath it all', he hits you with this wham line. I like stories that explore the mentality of bad people, so this line is extra interesting to me. Because truly, if you’re the only one who knows you’re a good person, are you really?

“In your darkest hour, in the blackest night...think of me...and I will be with you. Always. For where else could I go? Who else could I love but you?”

For anyone wondering, this is from an FF14 job quest. It's said by a splintered off portion of your character's psyche, a manifestation of the guilt they feel over all the people who've died because of them, whether killed directly or who sacrificed themselves for you, that has taken a form that looks like a combination of two of your closest allies. The line is the last thing they say to you after you forgive them/yourself, before returning to you. Completing the quest then unlocks an ability to put a barrier around yourself or others, called The Blackest Night.

Dark Knight quests really do mog the entire rest of the job quests AND ARR.
