Current Events > apollooo's doki doki literature club playtrough is here (spoilers as i play)

(+) Yeah! (+)

Continued frok this morning's topic. So the sun has set down, the neighborhood has quieted down and i am huddled inside my blankie in front of my computer with beer in hand and mouse on the other.

ddlc is a fun enough experience
---

Okay this started like every other moe VN that i have never played >___> it would be embarrassing if anyone dind out i play this at night alone from without knowing the context
---

lmao that beginning convo hit the spot. i didnt join any clubs at high school and college now i spend most of my free time on Ce or videogames.

i actually join, but i got bored of them all and never show up anymore in any of those clubs
---

I think my area was too small town to have any significant club culture
interesting to see how important it is elsewhere
---

Lmao this is hilarious, i love how they use the stereotypes for intended comedy

Okay, based on my instinct alone, i matched with yuri the first few poems, so i just go with that.

Kinda makes me guilty about sayori tho.

Also it is actually cute and monika even reminded me to save lol

She is kinda the 4th wall narrator and not one of the girls you can impress
---

Omg wtf

What the fuck sayori
---

Wtf lol seriously
---

The design on how tje story flows kinda remind of undertale and little of zero escape.

I like it. Creepy af tho
---

Idk what that game is but I know it's where the "Just Monika" meme comes from
---

okay natsuki's eyes were randomly popping in a conversation.

yeah now that's legit creepy
---

okay i am legit scared to click. it's a mix of fear, dread and guilt. it's been long since i felt those feelings.
---

idk if it works on replays, but the one run is fun
---

How long is it to get all paths?

It is 1 AM and my body is about to give up. I would like to continue, but i am so tired i decided to go rest.
---

maybe 4 hours ish?

Ah i see i have played around 2 hours, and jist got my first "ending" in yuri's path.

I guess skip function gonna come in handy later?

I decided to play at night for the full creepy factor, but didnt consider that i woukd get so tired early. It worked though. The darkness
Works as a support to the disturbance.

The scare is really something. I mean, the disturbing images have me scared like clasic horror trope where you have this irrational fear that things you see on screen gonna pop up in the corner of your real life dark room, but there is just something else. Dread and anxiety it is both fear of what gonna happen to the characters, and at the same time not knowing when they gonna toss jumpscare on me. It is the combination of dread when you walk alone in the street at night and when you wait for test result or when your loved ones dont reply your messages after they come home late.

It is is hard to describe i guess, still cool nonetheless.

I giess i can start again in the afternoon tomorrow. Def gonna finish it in the weekend.

Did you metagame or did you play normally?

lmao you lucked out. There's only a 1/3 chance of that happening. Some of the scares are random events probably to make it so players get different stuff if they load

Ah i see.

Amyway sayori's suicide hit me harder than it supposed tom i kinda relate, although mine is not bad as her and laat year i had to deal with friend commiting suicide, hung himself in the room too.

I went to sleep just thinking about it
---

how is this game taking CEmen so long to play, I had that shit done and dusted to the true ending in what felt like one short sitting, and I didn't need to use the skip feature at all cept for the fun weekend with yuri. it's dissapointly short.

i made a mistake and started it too late i ended up getting too tired to continue around 1 AM

Yeah, the suicide is definitely probably THE hardest hitting scene not only because of the emotional impact but because of just how scary it's presented with the glitchy visuals and warped music. I was also playing it at night and actually had to stop there, something I haven't had to do with any horror media in years.
It doesn't get topped after that imo but maybe because I played at daytime.
---

finished it. damn i wish i had a backup files of monika after i deleted her and probably something else would happen.

after i deleted her, i do restore from recycle bin, but she deleted herself to oafter that and say i shouldnt play with her heart
---

I can't bring myself to delete Monika. I'm content to sit in the void having a never ending conversation.

Just Monika.

she has a twitter account lol

delete the firstrun file in the game folder and you can restart and get the best ending, it's underwhelming though.

Everything until the very end is the same except Sayori instead of going crazy like Monika did instead is touched by you saving and loading to make everyone happy and vows to keep the club open despite the game ending and tells you everyone loves you. None of the pictures are removed in the credits and instead of Monika's note ending the club you get a note from the creator instead.

What happens if you delete Monika before ever opening the game? Anything cool?

A quick ending where Sayori goes nuts once the game begins and shuts it down. On reload, you see a picture of her hanging from a noose.

You'll have to delete it when at the title screen when you have no save data present since the game will auto-repair the file if it's missing before then.

sayori defaults to club leader and gains the onowledge monika has, but while still depressed. She freaks out, has an existential crisis, and destroys the game

No you just have to start a new game. Having a save file is fine. In fact I think you're required to at least enter your name and then have exited the game at least once first because it'll auto-repair it if it's your first time opening it.

nothing happens for yuri or satsuki, but deleting sayori brings you to a screen with hanged sayo and thats it. You have to restart.mmo
