      It’s very interesting that people at every step of his life have been telling him to change his attitude. From his parents (though many people dismiss their parents’ critique), to 4chan, to Gaia, to Mike Z, to people on UA-cam and Reddit and real life. People who have a good attitude are easier to talk with and be in the presence of. Only people who dislike them are other miserable people. But even then, at my most miserable, I wouldn’t want to be around Alex since he always plays the victim card and only cares for himself.

      Incels are like a flock of razing sheep, surrounded by predatory grifters ranging from the parasitic grift of Jordan Peterson, to the gluttonous ravishing style of Andrew Tate.
      They start out semi self-aware, and probably most of them think they're doing something wrong, or something is wrong with them. That's when the predators swoop in and convince them that it's not actually their fault, but in fact it's society, and especially women who are the root cause of all of their woes.
      The incel misogyny is basically the result of them having derived their entire self-worth off of the notion that they are "a poor victim" and yet they are one of a select few who know that society is the problem (aka Tate's whole matrix BS). The incel thing is just a bunch of sad guys who are scared to face the fact that, if you want to change your fortune (especially in the romance department), you just have to put some effort in

He was disappointed to get a prototyping job, something much more broad and freeform than animating that most people who want to be game devs fulltime would have desired. YanSim started from a thread directly begging the boards what they would give him attention for. His main concern talking to MikeZ was getting complimented. Like he bemoaned himself: all he really wanted to do was watch anime.

I agree, that term is marginalized now, because a lot of psychologically ill people are calling themselves that and spreading their schizoposting across the world. But i don’t know how else can i call myself, because i am a 25+ year virgin, who never touched a girl. I mean, it never was a priority to me in the first place, as i was getting education, making my own life, finding real friends and trying to become better as a person. But one day you just understand, that you’re alone, and most likely will stay that way.

      The craziest part about yandere dev, to me, is that there’s nothing wrong with him. Like, he’s not a psychopath, I don’t think he’s naturally a pedophile, his biggest issue is that he was half-assed homeschooled. Lonely people do bad things.
      He’s genuinely a terrible person, of course, but the roots of his flaws are isolation during childhood; homeschooling; isolation in general. Lonely people do bad things.
      I hate this guy, but I kind of sympathize with him, I spent my childhood isolated in an abusive and broken home. I just didn’t become, you know, a ravaging porn addicted, pedophilic, misogynistic yet desperate obese japanophile narcissist. Everyone responds to trauma differently, I guess.

    I always found it a bit ironic that Yandere Dev is _Solely_ responsible for his game failing.
    Having trouble with emails? Why not just _stop_ replying to them? That will free up time to work on your game.
    Having trouble getting Osana done? Stop trying to add extra features no one cares about, and focus on what you want Osana to do. Make her killable and give her a basic routine; then complicate from there.
    Need more programmers? Hire more programmers. Curb your ego, and learn humility.
    Want your game to be good? Stop standing by for validation, and listen to feedback. You only learn through failure.

    Quitting that game design job was a crucial mistake. Game design is what he's good at. Not programming, not modeling, not animating- game design. Whether it's due to narcissism, poor social skills, or some other personal failure, he just couldn't accept that game design was his calling. He chose to burn bridges and tout himself in every category instead. Now, he's practically unhireable. I wouldn't be surprised if all major and most intermediate game dev studios have him blacklisted.
    Alex probably isn't reading this, but in case he is: Dude, get off the internet. Go to therapy. Learn how to socialize. Learn how to admit fault. Learn how to grow and change. It won't get you back into the games industry, but it should enable you to get some form of reliable income. And for the love of fck, *quit trying to get a romantic/sexual partner.* I'm not saying it's impossible, but trying this goddamn hard is the exact problem. You make friends first. You speak to people *as people* first. You make yourself known as a decent person first. Relationships won't thrive if they're forced. In time, if it's in your cards, the right person will stumble into your life. And if there is no right person for you, you pick a hobby and stick to your inanimate objects. Having a partner is NOT a prerequisite for humanity, and you need to quit hinging your existence on that.

      One thing we all have to remember is that while our lives were continuing on, Alex is staying in the same place. Years go by and Alex will be in the same place. It's the same with NEETs/Hikikomoris, but I have more sympathy for them than for Alex.

It wouldn't change the fact he was a horrible person but it'd have avoided this entire fall from grace.

      $4000 a month sounds like a lot, but it's $48k a year, pre-tax? Which sounds like a bunch if you're like 20, but much less great if you're 35 and even a slightly competent programmer. His real problem is that he's spent the last decade messing around and barely actually working, so of course he _can't_ just go get a real job now.

      4k a month in California is basically minimum wage. I'm not defending this guy because... yikes, But let's keep some perspective. He wasn't rolling around in yachts with his millions or anything.
      For context... An average 30 second ad read here on UA-cam starts around $2000 for a channel around 100k subs, And the bigger your channel the more they're willing to pay you. So every basic boring reaction channel that has an ad read every week is making way more than whatever yandere dev made. And they didn't even have to learn how to code 😄

I have met soo many people in college (especially girls!) who seemed to see their value only if they’re in a relationship. The moment they broke up they immediately go find someone else and be extremely lovey-dovey, but in those in-between moments they’d be miserable. I found it so pathetic that I promised to never be like that. If I’ll ever be in a relationship, it’d because I found someone special, and not the other way around. So no need to console me, but thanks for worrying☺️

    When YandereDev turned down Tiny Build that was the beginning of the end. What a truly awful decision that was. His game was a buggy mess and frankly he isn’t a good enough coder to fix it. So, in came a company willing to overhaul his code, let him keep full ownership of the game as well as total creative control. A miraculous deal; yet he turned them away.
    If YandereDev had an ounce of humility and was able to admit his code needed overhauling, chances are the game would’ve been finished by now and he would’ve raked in a ton of money with little effort.
    Ironically, he got what he deserved in the end. A dying game, his VAs leaving the project and a rightfully ruined reputation.

Not only did I have a psychopath like Yandere Dev threatening me that he would kill me and himself if I didn't do what he said, but my family found out and treated me like a "dirty little girl" instead of supporting me. My friends in high school (Freshmen year) are who helped me get away from him. To this day I don't know his real name or age. Stuff like this happens daily. Yandere Dev just had a platform that made it easier to be a predator and by extension exposed. We have to remember that these people are victims. Forced into situations where they think they have to obey. It's sick and disgusting. Don't blame the victims. Help them get out.

      @Crystalgate Місяць тому +95

      While it's hard to nail down the exact why, it's almost certainly related to the fact that he is designing the game for himself and not for other players. His game is set up like a sandboxy game, but obstacles are not handled as obstacles, they are handled as locks you open with Yandere Dew approved keys. For example, Raibaru is an obstacle that you can eliminate or bypass using certain methods he purposefully implemented, but other methods he often try to patch out when they are discovered. He doesn't want the players to play his game the way they want to, he wants them the play it how he intended. With that in mind, advice comes of as useless to him. You can give a man advice on how to make his game better, but it's hard to advice someone on how to better railroad the players into playing as he intends because you can't read his mind. Yandere Dew won't take advice since his goal isn't a great game.

      Its very common with social awkward loner types to think they're special or different because they're lonely. It makes sense Alex would think he's like that since most of the social cues he learned from anime. He sees all these super badass character at the back of the class who are lonely because nobody gets how intelligent and amazing they are and probably started relating to them and to a point see himself as some weird type of unrecognized badass savant.
      Simply put, Alex has likely duped himself into thinking that, since misunderstood geniuses are often alone and he has lived a lonely life, then he must be a genius and treats everyone else accordingly to protect his incredibly fragile ego

    Excellent video, but I have one quibble: the blaming of his homeschooling for his issues. Context: I was a fellow kid homeschooled from the age of 13 onwards, and severely isolated further by my fundamentalist (widowed) mother to the point where I had to rely on cartoons for social cues. Aka, a similar situation to Alex. I am, currently, an adult with friends, a loving boyfriend, and have been repairing my mental issues through extensive socialization and therapy for 5+ years now.
    Alex's background certainly started his issues, but ALEX is why he never improved. It is possible for severely socially isolated or incel people to grow, change, and find healthy relationships. It is possible to learn, leave the past behind, and be a better person. Ya, it's hard. Ya, it sucks. Ya, its humiliating being 10 years behind your peers through no fault of your own.
    But Alex seems to have made zero effort, until recently, to actually improve himself, and that I lay at his feet. A bad childhood is not an excuse when you are in your 30s and exactly the same mentally as 15.

Like fuck, even if he thought he was so busy he just couldn't spend time looking into these things, hire someone to. The apparent lack of problem solving skills he has, it's no wonder his code looks the way it does.

Good things fell into his lap left and right, fans were more than willing to forgive missed deadlines (something the real world wouldn't be so kind for) and he whined because he was too busy for a social life, all the while avoiding all the options that could've freed up time to give him one.

(the code wasn't very good in the first place, and instead of fixing the fundamental issues, yandev just added more and more ways around the problems, which made everything a mess.)

    This made me recall my one interaction with him. He was streaming his 12h+ playthrough of Hitman 2 on twitch when it first came out. He attempted to unlock one specific achievement but couldn't do it because he mixed up the achievement with a quest title of the same name, different goal. I tried to explain it to him using CAPSLOCK to highlight the differences (bc he kept ignoring us) and he mocked me because I basically spelled it out for him like he was a child. Of CouRsE hE knOwS wHaT hE's DoiNG. He accidentally stumbled into the achievement at some point.

    What's crazy is that, as an autistic man, I find most of the stuff he said and did as a kid incredibly relatable. It reminds me quite a lot of my 12-16yo self, being unable to socialize or date or hang out with people, being incredibly jealous and resentful of happy people while I was incredibly suicidal, not knowing how to express myself until it came out in anger or pettiness, until I secluded myself at home 24/7 with cartoons and anime, all while living in an abusive home.
    If he had gotten mental help, he could have turned out so differently. Just because the world has failed you doesn't make you a lost cause, you have to start your own healing process, it gets easier the further you make it. I hope all the lonely, traumatized teenage weebs of the world find happiness instead of incelibacy.

      I think what happened was he wanted to continue to do stupid easter eggs but the TB developer came in, saw his code and tore it apart like a seasoned developer as a summer coding camp. Yan peed his pants and had a break down lol. He couldn't understand it because he only grasp the fundamentals. What's insane is that, in 10 years he could have had a masters moving on to a doctorate in coding by now. He's still the same.
