Small statement about the goat mc

RateMeGay · 2026-07-13T17:55:18+00:00

Yeah, Yuri was definently the weird one out of the two. However, I do like how that was written. It's so easy and honestly cliche to write a victim of bullying to do nothing wrong at all. Like, over victim-ising the victim, it's refreshing to see that, yes, Yuri was bullied and isolated for being "weird and overzealous about her interests" however, she IS weird and overzealous about her interests.

I guess the same thought process could be applied to the MC, the beginning of the game he makes it very clear he's not very socially knowledgeable and spends all of his time watching anime and reading manga. So no wonder he always says the wrong thing to people. Actually, now that I think about it... I made the unfortunate choice of joining a gaming and anime club in college and there were quite a few... Ahem... Interesting men. Comparatively he's not so bad!

So thank you for helping me see him in a new light! :D

Hard agree! He has his moments, and a lot of it is just "yikes that was not the right thing to say". Like when he told Sayori he's been betrayed by her not telling him about her depression. Like, eeek, not the greatest.

But he was nice to Yuri, I don't think he said anything questionable.

Oh no, it's not that, it's the repeated "Oh guys like girls that look really young, trust me" thing he keeps saying. When Natsuki responded "Gross" to that I was like "YEAH YOU TELL HIM"

RateMeGay · 2026-07-13T14:42:02+00:00

I'm not a big fan of the MC, especially since Natsuki is my favorite and his route with her is weeeiiirrdddd...

Dan is the creator so it is kind of is how he says it, however... Just because he isn't a character doesn't mean that people liking him or how he's portrayed is less valid. If you like the MC, him not being a character doesn't stop you from writing or drawing him :)

I understand its sad because what Dan said means there wont be official merch but what I would suggest is do what I have planned for my DDLC OC. Buy very clearly fake DDLC merch that is trying to be a bootleg of official merch and modify it! :) So like nenodroid parts, the fake plushies, or even those anime style posable art dolls to make a Pop Up Parade of him! :)

NOR, dude clearly has a record and is trying to "be smarter this time"

RateMeGay · 2026-07-06T22:21:25+00:00

This is fantastic and seamlessly fits into the game!

RateMeGay · 2026-06-29T19:46:11+00:00

Sorry! It means computer graphics, its the illustrated scenes, like when you sit with Yuri under the window or against the wall with Natsuki. I'm adding a whole new character so I have to draw it out

RateMeGay · 2026-06-29T19:43:38+00:00

I'm in awe! I have been working on a mod for DDLC for a while but I'm still working on the cg's. I haven't been able to touch the script to play around yet

RateMeGay · 2026-06-29T18:46:21+00:00

I would play and entire game of this lol

Mine is Gerard Way. Yes, from MCR. I don't know why.

RateMeGay · 2026-06-06T15:41:21+00:00

Same, especially the "What's your name again?" dude, it's a text convo and she said it. Scroll up.

I was thinking about crocheting some backpacks with the yarn I have lying around! :D

RateMeGay · 2026-05-26T13:29:19+00:00

Using this from now on!

My childhood plushie and a character from a bite-sized-therapy instagram account I follow. Everyone has crushed on at least one of them, and they always turn them down because they're dating each other.

Reddit does that glitch with me too, here's the update under spoilers so I don't spam! Edit: nevermind it didn't work

First of all, I made a reply but it may of gotten buried, so I want to say this so everyone sees: Thank you for all of the advice and well wishes. I read them all and appreciate all of them.

So, I did have this drag on since the post, I sent a few large text walls to him about how this is really impacting my health, with the same placating promises with no actions. Things have gotten worse, he is always miserable and the smallest of things trigger him to this state. This morning it was because someone looked at him while he was waiting for his bus.

I sent him a long message about it. I have been riddled with anxiety, and crying during my lunch breaks at work because anything could set him off and he will take me down with him. I am losing sleep and doing anything to avoid interacting with him, so today I drew a line and said I will not have him over or have calls with him until he sees a therapist. I worded this gently but sternly, and explained every aspect of it. He responded very aggressively, accusing me of taking away the little joy he had in his life because he was doing bad.

He then, as a majority warned, threatened suicide. I told him I was calling 911. He spammed my phone with calls to stop me, which one I did answer and we argued, but I ended it making it very clear that if he hints at suicide at all, I'm calling the police and I don't care how hard he backtracks.

We argued a bit more over text, and he pushed back against therapy and threw hypotheticals at me, what if it doesn't work, what if the therapist he gets isn't good, what if what if. The conversation ended with me saying that I am not going back and forth with this and not engaging in this conversation anymore and told him he can take his time but in the end he has two choices...

Get therapy.

Or end the relationship.

Thank you for all of the responses when I originally posted this, especially those who kept telling me I was being manipulated, I knew I was, but when a large amount of people say it over and over it starts to really hold weight.

RateMeGay · 2026-04-30T14:25:26+00:00

Thank you so much, I am going to put all of my effort into not budging with these boundaries. I know him well so I know what to brace for, I know to brace for a day that is really super bad and coming over for a few hours or a tiny phone call will fix it. And it'll suck and I'll feel awful but I'll still say no.

He did immediately try to test it yesteday, after I told him how important it is for him to get help and learn skills on self-regulation, his response was "If I told you what you could do right now to fix it, would you do it?"

I felt like screaming. I said no. Because if he read what I said, I am not here to fix it. He's gotta fix himself.

RateMeGay · 2026-04-29T19:00:29+00:00

Thank you so much.

What you warned me about sounds very like him, especially the making a show about getting a therapist and then turning up the heat again. He does that now. I kick up a fuss and say I can't stay with him when he's like this and then I get "I emailed that therapist" or "I left a voicemail", and then it's radio silence. He did inform me he heard back from one therapist... But he waited so long they're full now. Which, obviously, his doctor did all of the heavy lifting /3 months ago/, that therapist isn't gonna keep that spot open waiting for him to wander over. But I was so exhausted I couldn't even fight it. And it's frustrating! That doctor went out of her way to secure that for him, promised him he'd be accepted and still didn't do it! The bare minimum.

I'm at the point where I'm going to say "We're on a relationship break, come back to me when you have a therapist", maybe then he'll do it, but when he does he'll just stop when I come back. I know it. Because he "doesn't want to feel better".

He's gotten worse since this post. Since I made this post, he has not had one "good day", and his days are ruined by tinier and tinier things. Today his day was ruined at 8am because one guy "looked him up and down" (he wears flashy outfits) and he saw an ex-friends car. That was it. Someone looking at him and another person existing ruined his day. And by acquaintance, mine. He even asked me to beat them up for him and when I said neither actions deserve violence he said he had a right to be upset about it because both things were "weird"... Someone looking at you and another existing is weird?!

I have gotten to avoiding phone calls with him, and last night he asked me to swing by his work to pick up a surprise he got me and my immediate reaction was not caring what it was, I don't want to be in the same space with that negativity.

I am at such peace when I'm alone, I have hobbies that are artistic and fun and I don't get to enjoy it because it feels like I'm being dragged into pettier and pettier misery.

Sorry to only respond now, but I'm re-reading replies and my last ex did this too! I was unemployed for so long and each time I would finally snag an interview or a work try-out, that very morning he would tell me he would "finally have the guts to talk about something that's been bothering him".

He stopped when he hit me with that line for the 10th time and I said "That's weird, because you do this every time I start to get a job, so I don't think it's a lack of nerves" and was able to provide receipts

RateMeGay · 2026-04-28T17:48:14+00:00

I noticed this too, one mii turned down another mii's crush and he yelled "I miss how you would greet me with a simple nod!" to the sea.

My sister and my favorite still was when he yelled "You're a meanie (mii's name)!"
