the aforementioned computer program failed to accomplish the task
It didn't.
But I'm amazed, so many people keep on saying "it made my depression worse, i'm so sad"
how does this game make you even more depressed?
they're pussies

Because depression and emotions don't mix.
I'm still not sure how this game affected me. I [i]know[/i] it made me unable to tug my pud for a good few weeks, and that's an amazing accomplishment and all but it certainly didn't give me a life-changing epiphany.
Hell, I found myself laughing through some of the sex scenes just because they were so goddamn awkward.

although i did become more depressed after playing it, but that could be for a multitude of reasons
I had the 'I want to kill myself" depression first 2-3 days after finishing Hanako's path for the first time

I guess it's a possibility an already depressed player loses a few nights' sleep due to the game, or as they think, they get more depressed. The main character is fairly easy to relate to after all, being a pretty average guy and all. But he gets all the bitches. It easily makes one think of his/her own relationships and as we all know, imagination is a powerful thing.
Due to the emotional rollercoaster, they feel the urge to come and post their feelings of that exact moment which they think applies for the rest of their lives. Thus the game "changed their life", even though in retrospect it only made them think about themselves for a few days.
A bit of a long shot and layman's psychology but eh, why not? Can't come up with anything else. Aside from being pussies of course.
I couldn't give less fucks now.
So no.
Also fuck you
rip bluespaltic he killed himself over webbo game
Thinking about how your life will never be as awesome as in KS is depressive.

Also Hanako
Video tape it.
Well it made me attribute certain emotions to some songs. For example, a lot of the OST makes me feel weird when I listen to it. I don't really know. Sadness? Maybe. It certainly isn't enjoyable.
And this song, which I was listening to after finishing an arc, now damn near brings me to tears.

And I was clinically depressed before playing anyway so I guess I'm just fucked.
I guess I'm the only one who didn't become obsessed with this game.

Shh don't admit it in this thread that's just asking for trouble
Also I've been going through one of the roughest times of my life, every aspect of which I can find in KS.
Obviously it was made to be easy to relate to, but maybe it was because it touched down on so many relevant topics for me that it just fucked my brain up.
While we're at this, it's time for a small addendum to that long-ass post of mine.
I've been thinking about the impact on my life, and I guess there will be some minor things, like behaving slightly differently in some life situations or having that nice feel that I experienced something really interesting this year/month. Still, it's way too early to conform anything I could be completely assured of.
The other thing is that I'm glad you guys were in this thread with me; I think your harsh comments helped with emotional detachment, I don't think about KS/waifus/etc. all the time.
On the other hand, I feel some kind of emptiness since finishing it, but I'm fairly certain that's a normal thing.

that's not real depression, it's just being sad.

fuck outta here hanako is standing right beside me with my bacon sandwich

More like have Hanako sandwich your bacon rrerr

It's good to know that I'm not the only one who has a cardboard cutout of Hanako.
I guess being on medical leave for the last few months fucked with my head. Seeing as if Yamaku were real, I could easily be admitted for my fucking debilitating nerve disorders, I would happily go.
But being in this chasm of depression that I've been in for the past nine months made me vulnerable to what I'm going to call "spergitus". The kind of atmosphere Yamaku would provide would be fucking perfect for me, and the lack of social contact I've had for the past few months made a hole in me that had to be filled by something.
Thankfully I caught myself before falling for the Jap trap; an idyllic fantasy world, bright and colorful with a nice balance of happiness and sorrow. I've felt like I was on the brink of insanity before, and I'll be damned if that feel hasn't come back.
It's 7:44 AM here. Birds are trilling incessantly in the trees, and the sun has risen on closed blinds. A fitting metaphor for how I've been lately. I know I've got the right stuff but I haven't been able to muster the energy to find it.
I'm working with an out-patient rehab group for depression and traumatic stress. Eventually I'll be on the right track again. This game certainly made an emotional impact, and may very well linger in my mind in the coming years, but it's not something I should, or will, dwell on.
