    That intersex woman making the space board game is interesting. She hears a voice in her head claiming to be the sun and doubts it really is, but because it's claims of why it doesn't want her to make the game seem wrong rather than the fact it's a voice randomly in her head. She saw nothing wrong with hearing the voice itself. She had a hallucination, realized it wasn't what it was claiming to be, but didn't realize it was a hallucination. I've never heard of that before, it's usually either "oh I'm hallucinating" or "yes, the sun told me not to make the game."

      Ive heard from my own therapist that sometimes knowing your hallucinating is worse then not knowing. Its like having a existential crisis. Like am i crazy or is there some higher power really talking 2 me. I could see how bad that would be if your religious or believe in some type of afterlife

    Bob's Game is a good dissection of how the stages of grief can go wrong, Denial in thinking "omg mah gaym is teh best evah!!!!!1111one" 43:43 Anger and bargaining and a bit of guilt, which quickly leads into depression and then straight back into anger to straight up unbridled schizophrenia.

      @Aevilbeast 3 ปีที่แล้ว +40

      The thing was he wasn't "stringing" any along, he basically just came up with the whole "it was all a game" thing as a way to explain why nothing was ever made and for his erratic behavior up that point. The only person he was stringing along was himself.
      The man has some serious mental health issues including but not limited to egomaniacal and anti-social behavior and extreme paranoia. This kinda thing happens all the time with people with untreated mental health issues, they keep on coming up with excuses and ways to explain away their behavior and sometimes they're convincing to the point where people who are unfamiliar with them and their issues, that they actually start to believe them.
      The horrible thing about that is, it's about the worse thing that can happen in that situation. As when that happens it just reaffirms the person beliefs that they aren't "sick" and if they haven't already, they start to believe their lies and almost become addicted to all the attention it brings them. It then pushes them further away from getting real help, which then just continues in a endless cycle usually getting worse and worse until it eventually (and it will eventually) something really bad happens.

Getting disability because I can’t work without severe daily panic attacks even with therapy is impossible and they make it an unlivable wage too. We scream “care for people and three mental health” but those same people don’t say those same things for those with personality disorders and call us “crazy” when in reality we just need help figuring out how to control it in our lives.

You can't help someone who doesn't want to help themselves or to be helped, and it seems pretty clear she doesn't. I agree it's a shame, and I certainly feel bad knowing that such suffering is going on. My mental health is hardly stellar.

      Since when do we have so much sympathy for abusers and liars? You don’t know anything about this persons real financial or mental situation. This is all a game to that person and you are only feeding the beast what they want. They are the quintessential narcissist that will get what they want by any means necessary. You think your sympathetic approach gets them to question their actions and grow? Think again. Look at the evidence. You are their prime subject for prey. They suck you dry just as they did with this TH-camr guy and the “backers”. Message after message this person relishes in the attention. Diverting and deflecting any blame they have for stealing from people. They exhibit a full awareness and understanding how life works yet act like they don’t when precisely convenient for them absolve any wrong doing. The pattern is perfectly calculated like that of a very sane person. Saying, “I’m taking a break from the game to refresh perspective” is a very coherent and logical thought process. You can give a serial killer a cupcake, they will still cut your heart out, no and forever. The question is how much time with people waste trying to improve something beyond repair VERSUS someone who is worth it.

    I've just started a kickstarted and in 24 hours I've had two different people message me asking me to pay them to promote my kickstarter. one claims they are the reason things like the coolest cooler got so big and loads other that are all done and got loads of attention . Other actually has done an OK job and looks alright, Is this a common scam on the inside that others receive? Not gonna pay them obviously just wondering if anyone else is aware of them? 😂

    45:32 Considering all the threats the dude made towards Nintendo and knowing how shady these big game companies can get(i.e. Take two and their P.I.s, E.A. with similar shenanigans, and Nintendo with their trigger happy lawyer teams), I wouldn't be surprised if his paranoia was justified. I can see Nintendo sending/hiring someone to keep an eye on his in case the threats are genuine.

    The first Kickstarter I've seen that's failed because the person doing it was actually quite literally insane. And then another where the guy was pretending to be insane, but he's actually just some like new age hippy that's very into psychology and things. To him it was this grand experience and mind blowing thing. To most others it's a big eyeroll.
