@@Ava-hy6ke the blue whale is usually created by 'trolls' or those who wish to "play" with others I have friends who 'hosted' the game It is very basic It is a rumor it is very popular So what they did is to pretend to be the actual game and chat with them telling them to open a link which gives them the victims ip address so they would threaten the victim with that And throughout the "challenges" they would collect more info once they meet the dead line they give him some scary made up consequence for leaving the challenge which is suicide And make stories with the information they collected And then..........

KT Nichole yea she says in the video that she knows it’s her fault, but you can see that she’s pushing more blame towards Michael. She’s not really owning up to what she’s done and what she said in that video didn’t add up with anything neither did what Michael said. They’re are both in the wrong, but it seems like they’re pushing blame on the other person more than themselves and trying to take the attention away from themselves. Well mostly Tanas doing that, but I’m sure in the near future Michael will do the same thing. It’s just Michael and Tana(again) acting like the victim when the victims are the people who were there standing in line for hours. I mean I thought it wasn’t gonna go well, but I didn’t think it was gonna be that bad.

[@cats1970]

KT Nichole all i heard was onision crying about committing tax fraud and “i’m responsible for my own taxes, but i guess i shouldn’t have trusted this program without checking what it did and didn’t do for me while assuming they knew what they were doing” a narcissist’s real thoughts come out after the but “yeah i’m responsible, BUT not really because i trusted someone who fucked me over and i simultaneously claim that i wasn’t told about all these crucial things and that i was in every meeting making all the decisions” how is she gonna not even keep her own story straight for five minutes what a mess

mystic messenger literally has no content that would make somebody commit suicide.. yes, there are quite a few serious topics in the game, but don't play it if you can't handle it to be honest. the characters literally always ask you if you've eaten lol and for doki doki literature club, it's set as a physiological horror game, and there's a disclaimer in the beginning wtf

[@Akechipuff]

And for another story there is a disclaimer

[@midorichan9382]

If you're routed to a bad ending, definitely there's horror in it. Altho not all bad endings are not "that" physically horrible. For example, there's this Zen ending that the MC became too obsessed with Zen and the party never happened. The turnout of the events also being affected by the MC's (player's) choices. I don't really understand how Mystic Messenger became that triggering for something psychological. Especially that MM is targeted to market fan girls.

I was deeply suicidal and being able to have a person there gave me so much comfort. I can see that a kid like me getting a bad ending and having someone that had brought them so much comfort possibly die (depending on the route, it happens) and having that taken away from you, it can really make you stop thinking too rationally.

Honestly speaking, the parents shouldn't be dipping their hands into something they don't understand. Their loss is sad but trying to place misguided blame on other things is just stupid. Either get the facts straight or don't say anything at all. I might as well say that breathing is causing me to die slowly and that I'm drowning from drinking water everyday. Losing a loved one is sad but using their death to create hate is not the right way to mourn them.

[@donataspo2677]

True

[@kroh7742]

Well said

[@hanatemonstas4485]

Piknos actually, if you watched the video, the parents said it *might* have been factor, not that it was the cause . Also, most people dont act rational when in grief. Its easy to say these things behind a glass screen watching in as an outsider in the comfort of your home. But real life is rarely ever simple enough that it can be described in a set of fluffy words. Like I enjoyed Mystic Messenger and DDLC as games but Im not going to pretend everyone gets it. If people acted rational in stressful states or situations, the later game wouldnt even have a content warning. No the main problem is media, who are in a position to be more objective and get the facts straight, and then decide to do a poorly researched and sensationalized article

[@slicingonions4398]

They want to blame everything except for their poor parenting

[@graceobrien9955]

It might not always be as it seems. I'd just like you to know this isn't me arguing just me informing :) The parents are obviously distraught and are very depressed as they have lost their child. They probably think they have failed and will stop at nothing to figure out what drove their kids to do this. Secondly I bet 99% that the media twisted the words of these poor parents to come up with news. The media will do anything to find something that will bring attention to them even if it hurts many in the process. Hope you are well xx

that's not mystic messenger the characters are never nasty to you, unless you're talking about the Bad Endings or prologue, but it was never because of tasks that you haven't done. characters regularly check in with "have you eaten your meals" or "go to bed", there's light-hearted jokes, the chatrooms are all equally spaced- each chatroom takes about two hours to appear...

Mystic Messenger never talks about any dark stuff. It's about dating a guy kinda like Doki Doki, but you get to hear their voices and chat, and choose what you wanna say. Yes they had weird times in which you had to do some tasks, like picking up a call at 3am from one of the guys so that you would get the good ending in the end. Always blaming video games that are completely innocent.

[@Hexer404]

The game does have some dark content, particularly if you get a bad ending or go into the more in depth stories, particularly Seven's. And picking up calls is not exactly a task, not in the sense that it directly asks you to do anything. Other people have said that the game that is actually talked about is Blue Whale, a Russian game where it starts off with small tasks like watching a horror movie and then ending in suicide on the final day.

Otherwise we would have already seen a law suit from both parts against that ticketing company. Or against the other for the cut of the profits that is rightfully theirs. Do you expect me to believe that Tana was willing to make ZERO money from this? Hell no girl! Conclusion? Both Tana and Michel profited from this, and she did commit fraud. Doesn't mean Michael didn't, it means they both did.

[@Mezzy..]

I play Mystic Messenger, and it's really an excellent game, but what they said about keeping the players up at night is true. I've taken a break from MM for some time now, but once you start playing you really can't stop unless you want the full experience and don't want to spend money to unlock chatrooms that you missed (because you didn't log into the game at certain times of day). Usually 2 or 3 chatrooms are open at night or really early in the morning (up to 3 am or so). So I definately don't doubt that the game forms addiction. I know it did for me, and I hated missing chatrooms. So even when I had school I would do everything to not miss a chat room (hide my phone under the desk for a minute just to log into the game, form specific routines) and spend money when I missed them. Now don't get me wrong, I already had sleeping problems before I started playing, but I have a feeling the game made them just a little worse. *However* , one thing I disagree with is the remark "you have to do what the characters say or they will do nasty things". It makes it sound like the game is secretly evil or manipulative or something. No it ain't. Apart from keeping you up at night, It doesn't make you do anything because they are just fictional characters in a video game. And though it does goes through some sad themes like depression and suicide, I doubt that it's enough to drive someone to commit it.

[@athenaNS]

For mm just go into settings and change up the time. I miss the whole night chats and i just go up in the morning an ”turn back the clock”. Easy peasy. Then you just go forward till it’s the same time.

[@Bee-zv6yv]

i played MM too and remember setting multiple alarm clocks during the night just so i wouldn't miss the chatrooms, so looking back it really was addictive for me. But since MM had so much succes i see more and more of these chat games pop up, so maybe the kid was playing a more fucked up version of MM? that'd explain the 'turning nasty' part, at least. But ofcourse 1 videogame won't just drive a mentally healthy 15 y/o to kill himself, so there was probably more going on for him at the time.

little pancake alot of people were addicted to it. It's a VERY good game xD and interesting. It's a story choice game where you interact with the characters and see stories/situations unfold. It doesn't appeal to me as much anymore either though. But don't judge someone if you don't even know the game or played it yourself. Anyways, I don't think that's the game that caused his death. The game is mostly targeted towards females, it's possible he plays it, but it's more possible that he played the game Blue Whale. It fits the describtion more, that game gives you challenges including suicide on the last challenge. Knowing that he mightve played and did all those challenges, he most likely have been depressed before the game.

[@emily-rainbeetle7856]

Okay, don't get me wrong, I love mystic messenger.... but it's a game. Most people who play know it's a game, and it's not unhealthy if you remember that it's not real. No one should blame the game because the player got too attached to it.

[@puggygirl11ash]

I used to be highly addicted to Mystic Messenger as well. And it's understandable that it is addictive. Especially towards female audiences. I actually knew of fans that would get legitimately depressed because they would get so attached to the characters, even though the characters are not real. A fan even confessed that they contemplated suicide because of how attached they got to the game. Which mind you is very frightening and those particular fans need serious mental help.

The truth is that parents are responsible for their children. -And the media just don't care about the truth. They just want to sell, they want likes, they want followers. They aren't responsible and people believe blindly in what they say.

it's the parents who consumes news media, not the kids

I know its been 4 years but this is the most sensible comment in this comment section. Everyone just wants to blame others and then turn a blind eye. This is a perfect example of "ignorance is bliss."

[@ravioliravioligivemeareaso4447]

Mystic Messenger is incredibly stressful game in the wrong hands. I’ve been possibly addicted to the game in the past, but never have I ever seen it as a bad influence. Maybe it made me lose sleep a bit because I didn’t want to miss any Chatrooms (which was entirely on my own accord, the game doesn’t require you to do any of that) but I was always responsible enough to handle it. Take this from a person who’s been playing it since I was 13, below the age limit. I have always been responsible enough to limit myself and enjoy it, in a safe way.- If what is implied is that this kid killed him self because of only a video game, then they need some more respect for their child. Obviously something more was going on, kids are not that stupid. Maybe the game was the tip of the iceberg, but that doesn’t deny all the things that has to build up before that.

[@steenah_]

i am also a player and a fan of the game, I would never imagine someone having that bad of an influence on someone. No character becomes straight up nasty just because you don't do what they wish. The game even ask you if you have been eating or drinking enough quite often, if not then the characters advise you to do so. Even in the midnight chatrooms, the characters say it's late and that you should to sleep. I can't say 100% how the game will effect everyone, but I have read on how the game have helped people, especially with eating and loneliness. Tho as with me as well, I did sleep less than I already do when i played the game, but for me it always comes to a point where i can't bother with a videogames and delete the app or something I agree at that there was definitely more going on and that should be highlighted in media

[@okeizaki]

It just doesn't make any sense to me...

[@elivaunt1700]

I played this during summer vacation and not while in school cause I dont want to miss out on any chatrooms and I won't get distracted. It's just all about being responsible. Honestly, my sleep cycle is wacko during summer, but this game let me wake up at 7 to 8 am so i wont miss the chatrooms for that time. Each one just takes a couple of minutes to read. Got me more productive, I dare say. I love this game, and I worry that it might get bad rep.

[@sakuraiie6442]

Hail god Seven for he was sacrificed for our sins

[@905mg]

I've been playing the game ever since it was released and it actually helped me to be more productive since I would wake up early morning so I could never miss a chat. I like playing it during summer vacation since my sleeping pattern is kinda fucked up and I always skip meals, and in the chatroom they would remind me to eat and sleep early lol. I don't see anything that would trigger the player. It's actually great since it will always remind you to eat, sleep, and they even give advices. And I actually learn new things from them lololol

[@LetsbeHonestOfficial]

The part where Pewds Poppy deduces Doki doki into actually being Mystic Messenger is like a prime example of his/her very niche professional combination of gaming and affiliation with the news/media

[@Swoffff]

[@emily_kim]

Let's be Honest Official i want to mention to people Mystic messenger is a game that is played in little bursts like a text group chat and they last 2 min to even 10 min and come every hour or two and there r even group chats at 3am and 6-7am, so it could be mystic messenger but the game i think is 12 and up and the game involves suicide, cults, and drugs but that isn’t talked about the whole time keep that in mind

[@arlanengin6904]

I love it when Pewds - I mean Poppy - does that. Same fucking response when he deduced that JP's "Every Day Bro" had music with the audio watermark still in it. Fucking legend.

[@HerbalAssailant]

Emily Kim But that's the thing... I've played Mystic Messenger and I don't think that's what it was. I think it was one of those horror apps where you have to look through someone's phone and try not to get them killed.

[@rocionavarrorubio1670]

I was shocked when I heard about MM, I've played that game and it really is a game that needs you to be all the day with your phone BUT it's a game that keeps telling you to eat well, to sleep, to care about yourself. More than a game it's a story. Also Cheritz (the company that made the game) is always trying to help their players and other people. I don't know about that poor child or it's surroundings but it's not fair to put the blame on a game if they don't know exactly if it is the cause of it. I truly wish that the parents of the kid find peace and answers, it really must me hard to lose a child. It is no one's fault in my opinion. Neither the game, neither the parents (for confusing DDLC with Mystic Messenger, i don't have kids so i don't know how they should have approached the situation ) Sorry if there's any misspelling

[@kaasronald3623]

FELIX, the part about video games should be it's own video. It can actually start a great discussion and it will teach parents things, but in the pewnews format it won't reach them. I respect that you stand up for games and are trying to teach parents to understand.

[@andychow5509]

I remember that one time I was playing a video game and having so much fun, I thought about suicide /s If a kid is starting to do extreme things like isolating and becoming addicted to a video game, my guess is that something else is troubling him/her and that they are using that medium as an escape from what is really going on. The reason to play games or watch a movie is mostly to escape reality. Which is fine casually. But if it's becoming excessive, it's probably something else causing the problem. Just like when I was young there was always 1-2 kids that would always be reading novels, and by always I mean recess, lunch, bus, etc. It wasn't so much that they loved reading, but more that they really really did not want to be where they were.

[@JargonMadjin]

Just look at like 99% of mass shootings, the shooter has some mental disorder usually right? Edit: The way I see it, you can't blame just one specific thing for this sort of stuff. In reality, it's more than likely to be a combination of different things
