[quote]These type of games have no place in our society, we are working with community leaders and government to stop the spread of toxic games like Disability Girls [/quote] Y'know I'm fairly sure there's books with a lot worse stuff in it, the only difference is with this, there's pictures and the chapters go in a different order
[quote]Katawa Shoujo is a 'visual novel', a [u][b]new style[/b][/u] of video game popular in Japan where a player reads the action instead of plays it.[/quote] New?
The friend is a dumbass. A real friend knows not to do really stupid shit like this.
wtf
I don't quite understand the reasoning. "Hmm that was a good, emotionally enriching and fulfilling experience. I could try and help disabled people, maybe learn sign language or something....nah, I'll just cut my arms off." maybe he wanted to cosplay as Rin?
" This follows the controversy over another visual novel called 'Rapelay' " Yeah, Rapelay and Katawa Shoujo are the same type of game

Idiot, he'd never be able to play the game with no arms.

Not sure how long ago this one was posted before the ireport one: [url]http://theglobaldaily.net/010412.html[/url] Though on the KS forums, it has already been dismissed as fake.
gee, he should've tried to cut his head off, ain't the prettiest thing to lay eyes on
This just in, Being a weeaboo makes you retarded.
I'm curious, what was the message he left? Maybe that details his reasoning for doing it.

It's not like they can prove it's 100% fake in a few hours.
With a title like this, I honestly expected badage boys.
[quote] "I don't know why Ryan decided to throw his life away over a stupid game, the people who make this junk should be ashamed".[/quote] Fuck off. The game makers aren't to blame. It's the idiots own fault for thinking that the only way he can get laid is if he cuts off his own arms. edit - Oh, this is fake? Hope it is...
Dork. His friend too.

He could've been attractive and had sex irl if he learned to shave, stopped wearing wolf t-shirts, wasn't a complete tard and had both arms. Oh well.

[quote]"I don't know why Ryan decided to throw his life away over a stupid game, the people who make this junk should be ashamed".[/quote] What is it with constantly accusing what "inspired" people to do stupid shit, instead of, well, accusing the people themselves ? I don't know but if someone decides to drive his car off a cliff because he saw it happen in an action movie, it's his fault for being a dumbass, not the movie for having a car getting off a cliff.
Looks like the article is user-submitted, and any search for Ryan Dunham doesn't come up with anything [editline]17th January 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=l l;34256624]There is a source in the OP. Are you blind?[/QUOTE] Are you? "No sources of where the information came from"
[QUOTE=l l;34256624]There is a source in the OP. Are you blind?[/QUOTE] No source in the CNN Usersubmitted article dingus
If this is true (which I doubt) the guy and his friend definitely have problems, to be inspired by what is just a story to do something like that? Because it's no more than that really, just a story with pretty pictures and some choice, just like those choose your own adventure books and stuff. The game makers have nothing to be ashamed of, they've worked hard to make an interesting free game for the masses and then things like this happen trying to ruin them
I call fake. This article: [URL="http://theglobaldaily.net/010412.html"]http://theglobaldaily.net/010412.html[/URL] was posted much earlier than the CNN one, and is also the same website which published this: [URL="http://theglobaldaily.net/news/1323837955.html"]http://theglobaldaily.net/news/1323837955.html[/URL].
