Still though a shame from a games world point of view as well because if you haven't played the game "Night in the Woods" is a really fantastic game and story and one of the very few games where there is literally no combat in it whatsoever not even puzzle based combat, it's just story and puzzles. This person wasn't the only one behind that game of course, still though I'm just going to put my feelings on suicide for any reason on here... there is no going back from the choice to do that, you can get help all the way up until the point where you down a handful of paracetamol or w/e once you do that there is nothing someone can do for you but make a sad post on a forum... or facebook. There is nothing wrong with asking for help, be it therapy, legal help... anything, if you are ever in a position where you consider this action, talk to someone. |
"accusations were made against the guy and he committed suicide within 24 hours of it, the action suggests guilt"
No it doesnt.
Firstly they where a couple liveing together.
He admited to locking her in a bathroom.
She accussed him of rape, something he has never admitted too.
Hes innocent until proven guilty.
However social media doesnt work that way..... everyone mobbed him.
He lost his job, and his reputation was ruined.
This was a man suffering from severe depression.
His ONLY reason for liveing, was makeing games..... she took that from him with her accusation.
Imo she should be charged with manslaughter.
She even says, it was years and years ago, and she has "forgiven him" and doesnt plan to press charges.
Yet she didnt consider how damning her words would be? give me a break.
If you dont have curage enough to file a police report, you shouldnt be accuseing people of rape.
Esp not ones that are already suicidal, and have mental depressions.
I honestly think this man was innocent.... he lived a life on the edge of commiting suicide (servere depression).
She pushed him over that edge.
