You've Been Doxxed & A Stalker is in Your Room behind you Watching You 

Welcome to the I Sure Hope No Comments Are Behind Me Club, how I Sure Hope No Comments Are Behind Me are ya?

If manly wasn't gonna comment on the fish tank, I was. Angelfish and cardinal tetras are a good choice to have together, a classic. They can work with the usually snappy and territorial angels if you've got enough hiding places and plants. The tank itself seems to be decently landscaped, if a touch sparse for my tastes. It's the right size for a school of tetras and angels, nice and big, possibly a 50 or 75 gallon from the scale of it, plenty of fish space to school and swim. This game designer knows their fish, I'll give them that! Love to see a game that has correct takes on aquariums and tanks. It's properly stocked, the fish in game behave naturally and exhibit natural behaviors instead of loop swimming (my nemesis), and I feel I could watch it for an hour. Oh, and the rest of the game is pretty cool too, I guess. It's no aquarium, but it'll do.

The stalker is probably the ex in my opinion. He was the one to give the statue and had access to the appartment to put together the back alley computer set up. I think after they divorced he still was obsessed with her and took to forums (under a pseudonym) and illegally filming to further his obsession. Then when he couldn't continue to gain both attention and money from filming her after she had plastic surgery, he flew into a rage and rallied people online to torment her. Eventually either she escapes, or (more likely with the elevator broken) he kills her. This also explains how the stalker could get into the penthouse. He was known by the door.. guards? people? or had an old key.

moral of the story: don't live in a house with this many windows it gives stalkers an easy view of you and where you are, like come on at least close the curtains

Whole building might be nice and spacious but I feel like there is some serious structural violations in there. For starters, there is no emergency stairways to go down in case the elevators were to fail.

I'm pretty sure why they use the botched face lift in the game is to give a reason why she stays in one place.

I think she was genuinely being stalked. But in combination with the meds and stress, she subconsciously picked up she was in danger and suffered hallucinations. She shouldve called the cops, she shouldve responded to her manager to call the cops (or anything) so I kind of wish the phone went missing sooner. It just doesnt make sense that she wouldnt do something about someone taking pictures of her and throwing bricks in her window. Kind of aggravating, really! But it still had a really cool feel to it and the jumpscares got me bad so I like it a lot.

The ending sequence was unusually cinematic and well done. It also showed us very clearly where each camera is located. I wonder if there's any way to find and break them all? I was honestly expecting the reveal that the boyfriend is DarkCrusader and that you'd find cameras in every item Gin mentions was a gift from him. I mean, I guess we sort of got that implication, since the clock was definitely from him and I think the bedroom statue was too?

the speed that Manly identified those tetra fish was amazing

Imagine an apartment building without stairs for escaping stalkers.

The scariest part of the bathroom is the idea of having to clean it

As someone who was stalked in real life in the past, this was incredibly unsettling. In a good way! They did a good job of capturing things. I feel sorry for Gin tbh, first she's being talked to into having face surgery she (according to her aggressive reaction) didn't even want (or need, like, she was very pretty already?), then that gets fucked up, which makes the post-op pain even worse probably, and THEN she finds she's being stalked. Not to mention her fans being general assholes (minus the stalker, that's a whole other level, and it could have been the ex too), and the press, of course, milking her butchered op for everything it can give them. And, you know, her may or may not dying in the end. Also kinda sucks. The fact that all this isn't even far off from reality is both sad and scary.

what's both pathetic and scary is that these guys went on to murder Gin all because she had to postpone her acting for Silent Dark 3 because she got an injury on her face. That is really pathetic but...also scary to think about how some fans are so obsessed to the point they'll get mad at the person they idolize over the most minor thing if it doesn't fit their view, like take that crazy bitch who kidnaps a wheel-chair bound book writer to write a book in her view

This what is like making a horror game of Twitter.

maybe the stalker broke in to ask about her amazing interior design

If the stalker and secret room are real then I'd say she died. The elevator was broken which is why she couldn't leave in the first place. So if she left the room, the elevator would still be broken and she'd be stuck in the corridor with her stalker. But to me it seems like the painkillers were causing hallucinations. And she takes a painkiller right before the computer tells her to go to that secret room. So while parts of the stalking may be real, the other parts, after taking a pill, may be due to hallucinations and paranoia.

This gives me major "Perfect Blue" vibes. - The story follows a popular female celebrity who goes through some sort of situation that causes a divide in its fanbase. - Is set around the late 90s to early 2000s. - There is a stalker involved. - Both stories utilize late 90s/early 2000s internet chat rooms. Let's just hope there's not a scene where a delivery man stabs someone in the eye with an ice pick. Quick Pre-Uploaded Edit: Just heard Manly say the same thing, glad I'm not the only one who thinks this.

- Free pizza gets delivered out of nowhere - She eats it ...Lady, you are so dumb.

For those who want the reasoning behind the dartboard puzzle at the end, the order for the code is given by the Silent Dark references. The protagonist has two framed posters in her living room, which give you Diamond and Heart for Silent Dark 1 and 2, respectively. But we don't have a poster for the third movie. Instead, we take a look at the script for the Silent Dark 3 movie, which is next to the computer, and find the Club symbol on the back. See 4:51 and 3:43.

Ah yes Perfect Blue, the movie my sister wanted so bad that she bought it as a birthday present for me and kept for herself after. The animation quality on it was great and the story was pretty solid but it was a little too strong for me. It left me with the same feeling I got when Negan bashed Glen's head in, it was just a little too real for me.🤢

"Ugh! Jesus Christ, I look like shit!" You sure do! You're polygons, Gin!

Being stalked or doxxed is quite a common fear, something that could conceivably happen to anyone. Celebrities, all the more so thanks to being in the public eye and some fans wrongly feeling "entitled" as being responsible for their rise to fame. Gin's mental health is already getting barraged, it lets the player be unsure what's real and what's just in her head for some great tension. Ignoring the vase, I do think it's all actually happening if only because that makes it scarier and it lets the ending have some mystery to it, though I assume she got out.

Bro in every game I've realized that manly is not only good at playing video games but he's really smart too and has a lot of knowledge. I'm actually impressed! :o

“I’m losing my mind… I think I need a drink” oh yea lady thats a great idea when you are zooted out of your mind, knock a few back. It’s not like you’ll over dose lmao

Damn, she just ate 3/4 of a pizza like it was nothing

The part where Manly said "It's Hammering Time" was legendary, it almost made me tear up, it made the movie Morbillion times better.

I wonder if the stalker did something to/switched her meds to something stronger.

I might have laugh too hard at the fish tank. I used to work in Aquatics so I know my fish but the fact you said carnal tetras over neon (witch you were correct) shocked me and i clapped stating "you know your fish." The timing of you saying "yes i know my fresh water fish" just put me on my ass.

Jean Harlow was a real actress who died in the 1930s at only 26yo, so I'm thinking the protagonist in this game being called Gin Harlow is an homage to the late actress. Really cool actually

Getting a call from not just any normal lawyer, it's Saul Goodman!

This dude has the perfect voice for ever game and horror games

You would think that with all this money she could have a good security system installed.

Manly, you have the best “lullaby” type of voice. You should get into reading stories on here too

Watching Perfect Blue now because of your mentions of it during this playthrough. Even only half-way through, I can see the inspiration the developer got from the film. Same computer, same fish (only tetras), same layout for the stalker hideout, imagining things, etc. Thanks for mentioning it Manly!

The game does address the issues that there are groups of fans in any fandom that I think have real mental problems or deep rooted issues in their life where they emotionally attach to a person, where if that icon does anything that those fans dont approve they all snap. and I have seen people get worked up in a frenzy just because they found out a super-model favorite colour was blue, oh boy they where very toxic over it.

I bet the stalker was Drew. He had previous access to the apartment and could've set up the monitoring room. He was pretty hostile when you didn't go to dinner with him. Or maybe it was a previous ex since the statue that had the camera was from an ex boyfriend and they would've had previous access to the apartment as well. The banging from the apartment that the landlord complaining about was the person setting up the cameras while the protag was out of the house working, doing shoots, etc.

I can see this game really utilize that medicine cabinet mirror 😖 always bracing myself everytime manly closed the cabinet.

I read the title and nearly had a heart attack... this was literally my childhood/teenager years :( I was doxxed and stalked for nearly 10 years, right into adulthood

Manly: “At this point…” Me: “Get a gun” Manly: “run”

Hoo boy, this game just gave me some serious flashbacks. Flashbacks to probably the darkest time in my life. I once accidentally doxxed myself a little in a game. Just my first name, but I got so spooked when my creepy cyberbully immediately messaged me. "So…[REDACTED], huh? Fortunately for you, I think that's a lovely name. Unfortunately for you, I won't forget it." Then, he brought up some of the things I had said on Tumblr. I panicked and told him to shut up and go away. His response was, "Aww, you're so mean, [REDACTED]!" After that, I went completely offline for a few months. I was too scared to enjoy my life. I thought he might show up at my house and hurt me or my family. So, I took it upon myself to protect everyone I cared about. I refused to let my guard down, to the point where I wouldn't even smile. I thought I had to stay vigilant at all times, lest he appear and do something awful. Fortunately, he never showed up, and I started slowly recovering after a few months. Eventually, I was able to laugh at jokes relating to the character he played. It was about two years ago. The whole thing doesn't weigh on my like it used to, but occasionally I see things that being back bad memories. Sorry for dumping all that on you. I just wanted to share how this game made me feel. Edit: Context as to why I overreacted so bad. My parents had taught me that if someone gets a little bit of information about you, they can start looking around the internet and finding more and more info until they have a whole profile put together. I, having dealt with anxiety issues since elementary school, took this to its logical extreme, thinking that a first name and a few silly stories from my life would be enough for him to track me down, even though no people or places were named in the stories.

Gin's voice actress did a really fantastic job

This game is also a great portrayal of how toxic Social Media sites and Forums can be from Keyboard Warriors. I'm glad I've dropped almost all of it.

There’s an important small info that may add to the theory that this isn’t real! The time where you start seeing Gin exiting the hidden room, the security cam stops recording if you look at the top left! 35:36

24:35 - okay, drunk, on pills or high, this should automatically warrant a trip to the cops' department. Holy shit that's terrifying.

Regular phenomenon, horrifying reality, and everything nice! That is what horror games are made of

Everything that happened was all in her head. While the threat of stalking is very prevalent, it was pretty obvious from the moment she was getting forum posts that definitely shouldn't have gotten through the "moderation team." I think the bad press about her face was very real, but most of everything else was in her head.

"Your stalker is behind you" I always knew my dog was stalking me

I know those blog messages are fake, but it still fills me with so much anxiety knowing there’s men out there who’ve said/done stuff like this :(

I was thinking in Perfect Blue just at the moment where you actually mention it lmao. All the thing about a movie, the fishes and the doxxing... Edit: I just watched the part of the computer with that comment saying they prefer Gin "sweet and virginal". Highly disturbing 🤡

i like to think she made it to the door before the stalker caught up to her. shes limping and hurt, but it seems like the stalker was hurt too. she got out of the room first, he was lying on the ground, i bet he attacked her at the computer, but didnt expect her to fight back so hard. then they fought to get to the closet first, and clearly gin won. the elevator is still broken, but she might b able to hold the door shut till police arrive her manager did ask if he should call the police, but she didnt reply. (was probably too far into panic mode to think logically and reply) that being said, if your client texts you saying theyre in danger and someone smashed their window with a brick, then go radio silent, youd probably call the cops anyways. if thats the case she just needs to hold out until they get to her

The lighting, shading and art for this is really great. Makes all the painting and objects look like eyes and suspicious figures whenever she is affected by hallucinations.

I'm reading the chat boxes, and wow, are people actually like this? They can't even fathom the idea of someone getting surgery because they simply want to???

20:34 "I think I need a drink" *manly opens the medicine cabinet* Me: "MANLY NO!" 😨

The whole time I was hoping Gin was hallucinating from the pain pills and alcohol but the ending leaves me uncertain

Did anyone else notice the blinking red light in the left eye of the Statue form the Ex?

did anyone else notice the statue's left eye blinking red? its also said that drew was a possesive type, which i think is said because he had to get a camera in her room just to know where she is and what shes doing.

I love how he keeps saying tropey lines like "this can't be happening." The game was an interesting exploration of the psychology of young famous people, but MBH's commentary just adds a certain _je ne sais quoi_ that almost makes the whole thing humorous.

This game is so sad cuz this is actually what can happen to anybody, at any time, for whatever reason (or sometimes no reason at all) and you can't do anything about it. I don't get why people can't have common sense and realize that maybe leaking someone's whole life on the internet because they feel like it can kill that person.

The bathroom gives off the vaporwave vibe like ❤️

Man haven't seen an indie game this good in so long! I love when there's really detail and story behind the main spooky event, this game perfectly balanced the little notes and comments on decor to flesh out Gins life in a way that paints the picture so well, such a great concept for horror too yet not done enough (Perfect Blue and Misery being the only good examples I can think of?) This game really did a great job, the only thing I'd say is lacking is the actual character models and animations but that's pretty minor. So glad I got to watch you play it Manly!

Hven't finished watching yet but it's almost comical how many actual men sound like some of the dudes in this game. The old, super sweet and nice until you (politely) decline and then you get hit with every name in the book 😂 I hate it but I have to laugh not to cry

Having an opinion on Twitter, the G game

Also NGL the people like Dark crusader are scary.

As soon as a random pizza shows up at your door.. you know.. you are in danger

despite being set in 2004, she says her neighbor has her air fryer, a term which wasn't introduced until 2010.... literally unplayable

Quite interesting seeing this game where a celeb is being stalked. Never get Doxxed y’all cause it can happen to u.

Having this going on in the background while working from home and I will be the first to say one drink can hurt. Was put on some new meds and never had any issues and don't drink much. Didn't think about it. Drank one small drink and was drunk for the first time in my life at 29. Went from 0 to 100 real quick. Worst moment in my life that I could've easily prevented.

Love this guy! Awesome videos and hilarious commentary! He’s like the super smart and funny best buddy I’ve never had! The one that knows all the cultural references.

This idea is genuinely terrifying

This was a really neat and creative horror game. Really enjoyed it.

Keep up the amazing work Manly!

I believe this game is a criticism about how a fandom can be come toxic with a certain artist because of any mistakes has made. Fans are hypocrite. They idolize a idol but when a controversy happens with him, his fans turn against It. And yes doxxing can happen as an attack on an artist if they have a controversy. Internet can be cruel sometimes. 💀

average dream twitter user

i get its a game but like.. who tf wakes up to there very expensive vase smashed feet away from where it was before and there front door wide open and says naw must be just imagining things. Must be a Skyrim Npc

it is literally the third time I'm trying to watch this video and everytime I just fell asleep at night because your voice is so calming god dammit

I'm loving the references to Eternal Darkness as you play these games, lol.

the whole apartment lookss straight out of the movie helter skelter

you're right about Perfect Blue! gosh, what a masterpiece.. 💖 i'd also love to have a bathroom like that too!

The way stronger meds can make people hallucinate, there stands a chance the comments about a stalker teamed with meds could generate this without the real stalker being present.

Watching Manly's gameplays is so relaxing, even if the game is so fucking disturbing, I just love his voice so much- ♥️😩

I think it was all in her head, simply because she acts so helpless and you're confined to a small play area, but I like the premise. It's a pretty neat game!

Oh boy, another video from Manly! This will be such a fun and normal episode. Let's hope there aren't any unwanted visitors at this lovely woman's house. 🙃

DUDE Perfect Blue is really great! I watch your videos a bunch and it's awesome you mentioned it! ❤️

Manly is Aquarium expert? That's what we never seen before.

Cannot believe I was today years old when I learned Manly has a passion for fish and aquarium keeping. Been watching this man for years and I somehow missed this.

Another thing to add to Manly lore: he knows his tropical fish And yeah, this game has Perfect Blue vibes

When the concept here is more real than the most horror games.

Just a tip for anyone who is getting into or does streaming people will do stuff like order pizzas to the suspected house when your on stream to confirm. Just do your self a favour and don’t answer the door while streaming

8:30 *"Goodbye,* Drew." Manly drinks his Respect Women juice daily. King. Edit: I loved the game's setting & the atmosphere of her house. I'd like to see future games set in this universe, or made by the same dev.

can't believe theres no emergency staircase smh

You knowing your fish impressed me and made me giggle haha

awesome as always

Manly posting is free serotonin

11:20 when people are doxed, (if they are famous) people send random stuff to their house.

always love your content

YESYESYES ANOTHER UPLOAD MADE MY DAY YAYAYYAYAYEUEERKK

okay.. horror doesn't get me anymore. i'm completely desensitized to every horror trope, game, movie, story, etc But this.. was spooky. The premise, i mean. i was actually pretty nervous there for a minute; people like those on the blog really do exist. also.. great aquarium. 10/10; watch the size of those angels though.

i love the fact that you mentioned perfect blue, it definitely match the vibes of the game

Love u mbh, i watch all ur vids to help me sleep bro

the fact that men still act like those blog posts today irl… seeing those posts in the game really shook me up because that’s such a big part of womens realities now
