How to beat doki doki: 1. Delete the game.

monika: deletes everything me: presses alt f4 monika: wait thats illegal

“Purple guy = monika” Willam: *I prefer kids* Monika: *I prefer classmates*

My favorite part of DDLC is that they actually check if you’re recording and gives you a jump scare if you are recording when it’s only just her.

A little bit of Monika in my life A little bit of Monika by my side A little bit of Monika is all I need A little bit of Monika is what I see

"I'm not okie dokie after playing doki doki,"

It’s funny how this entire thing could have been avoided if we could have just had a poly relationship

I legitimately cried at some points, because my mental health is not the the best, so I related very personally to the characters. It made me so sad and hurt, especially when sayori was talking about her depression and not feeling like she deserved her life and the people in it. I deleted the game and re-installed it just to make choices to make sayori feel better.

“This game is not for children” Me : this sign can’t stop me.... because I can’t read

Remember lads, the game is free, but therapy isn‘t.

I love how Salvato disguised a horror mystery game as a dating sim

I know I am late to this but I decided to play the game by myself without any spoilers besides it was scary and.... wow it really is a amazing game. Very interactive and really plays with your emotions. I have only done the "normal ending" though I'd argue nothing in this game is even close to normal, but it was just a amazing storyline and I really wanted to express how amazing this game is. Thanks if you read the whole thing :)

Interviewer: "What are your skills?" Person: "I can beat Doki Doki Literatu-" interviewer: "YOU'RE HIRED"

Sayori: *hangs herself* Logan Paul: *GET THE CAMERA*

me being a dumb 12 year old playing ddlc in 2018: "looks interesting, i might have fun with this" also me hours later: 👁👄👁

This was one of my favorite theories matpat has ever made. I’ll miss you. Thank you for everything

Monika: You Like Horror? Me: Do you like Jazz?

I feel bad for the sad men who actually wanted to play this game for a cutesy dating sim...

Heres a joke: “Yuri” “Who’s yuri?” “Yuri dopted”

There is actually a secret to Sayori hanging herself. As you can see, her hands are bleeding meaning when she put her neck into the rope she tried getting out of the rope making her death more painful than we thought.

Me: doesn’t download the game “Yeah I’ve beaten Doki Doki Literature Club”

anyone else notice that monika has the only “english” name and the rest are japanese? also, monika and sayori are the only ones with natural colored eyes.

It's amazing how well this theory holds up. The girls seem to be from that virtual world, Project Libitina. However, in DDLC they are also supported. Even so, Matpat did predict their advanced AI being part of something much bigger!

“this game is not suitable for children or those who are easily disturbed” welp

Me: Sayori is so relatable Sayori: **Is very depressed** Me: Still relatable Sayori: **Kills herself** Me: Hold up-

Monika: **deletes everything** Player: **deletes monika** Monika: you weren't suppose to do that.

Even after this video, even after knowing every tiny speck of doki doki, I still love monika, she will always have a place in my heart

me trying to sleep while watching game theory: tries to sleep MatPat: CReEpy INtrO!!!

“Doki doki leaves a lot hanging” Stop it

*Doesn’t know how to delete monika* “Guess I’ll die”

Whenever I see Sayori hanging, it’s always so sad. And you can’t stop it from happening.

Watched this theory when it first came out and 6 years later its still one of my favs, used to listen to this while doing homework . This will forever be on of my fav theories!

Someone: what is Doki Doki Literature Club? Me: T H E Y V E B E A T E N T H E G A M E

Plot twist: *Monika is a area 51 agent*

i know im 3.5 years late to this video but i just finished the pewdiepie lets play of this game and when i watched the intro i legitimately got chills worse than what ive ever experienced before

I love it how in the beginning skit Steph literally text ls “Try not to get attacked by a sentient game character”

On day one yuri literally says “it’s amazing how a writer can so deliberately take advantage of your own lack of imagination to completely throw you for a loop”

I feel bad for the developers being like: Dev.: Hey I found a glitch Dan Salvato: Oh no, that is supposed to be there Dev.: ... Dan Salvato: ...

3:54 question, what would happen if you delete Monica's file even before she manipulates other charrecters? I'm really curious. Would love to see how that works.

6:43 this makes sense, natsuki seems like the type of person to be in Mass Effect

"I'm not allowed to touch Undertale anymore" Deltarune: Hold my beer

Doki Doki: **exists** Also Doki Doki: **gets dark** Game Theory: **makes it even darker**

How u connected this video and the next one is rly clever Matt, props 🎉

This theory was actually put into practice in a mod for DDLC called “escape to the portrait”. It’s also quite well written and has lots of stuff to interact with, requiring you to mess with the files a lot. I’d recommend it, if you really like this game.

Something really unsettling is how all but one of monika’s designs will never break eye contact with you

“This game leaves a lot hanging” Shows sayuri hanging

really liked how in this game if you made a backup of some of the game files and tried adding them back the game would get mad at you because monika didn't want to come back

Jokes on you, I was in love with Monika from the beginning. 😅

Sayori: please join my club Player: i already join anime club E N D S

How to *NOT* get everyone killed: Step one: do the monika route

"joker natsuki isnt real she cant hurt you" *joker natsuki:*

I come back to the ddlc theory’s annually def some of matpats best to date!!

How to delete Monika: 1. *Don't delete the game.*

Scientists mind: the machines are gonna become self aware... Weebs: the waifus are becoming self aware...

I got hit with 3 warnings before I could even watch this 😅😅😅😅😅

I’m pretty sure there are more endings than syoti becoming like monika

I remember this game came out and everybody was talking about, I really miss it ngl

Ah, yes. *The low, low, price of Free.*

8:00, i believe this specifical part is actually talking about the girls (except monika). Shortness of breath is sayori, when she h4ngs herself she doesn't have a quick and painless death, but she suffocates slowly, till she can't breathe. Chest pain is about yuri stabbing herself. and dizziness could be natsuki when deleted.

it’s crazy to me that he was actually really accurate when it came to this theory

*“And that kids is how I sold my soul for a dating simulator.”*

Yuri: * stabs self * Monika: *that's alot of damage*

9:01 the nostalgia...

This theory is the best I heard so far, this Mat mate knows how to do the job.

“for the low low price of free” the only thing u pay for is therapy

"For the low low price of free" Yeah you don't pay with money, you pay with your soul

Monica is W.D gaster

The messages from the others when mat just got the picture from jack reads Thomas “I ate a rock” Stephanie “try not to get attacked by a sentient game character” Mark “Deja by?” Sedge “Should I add more meta jokes in this episode” Jason “It’s not my fault”

“This game leaves a lot dangling” did... did he just make a pun about suicide?

In the intro Steph messaged him saying "try not to get attacked by any sentient game characters" and that is what happend... Genius

just recently replayed the plus version of the game, everything about the game is just wonderful. i can’t believe that it has been almost 7 years.

how to speedrun doki doki: step 1: delete all characters

He actually misses something, when or if you read with Yuri the player says “ the main character reminds me of you” which Yuri gets visibly anxious and tries to defend herself after that the player says the mc in the book reminds them of Yuri because of her shy type and Yuri says “oh I just thought you were talking about *something* *else* “

“If I had a nickel for every time human experiments were mentioned in ddlc I would have to two nickels which is not a lot but is weird it happened twice”

Watching this at 12:00 AM by miss clicking and thinking you clicked on a GTlive video is a wonderful experience.

this is one of my favorite theories

*When a .Jpeg goes to a live feed of your camera.* *wait*

I’ve seen this video many times, but the line, “why is she screaming even louder than before?” Still throws chills down my spine 😣

Game Theory : Monika wants you to love only her Me : *already loving her * Also me : Umm yeah i-

The thing they all have in common? Amiga OS. If you look closely, you'll notice the filesystem of the virtual machine Metaverse runs in is based on the Amiga. Showing Chip RAM and Fast RAM at boot, and having many familiar system files that anyone who owned an Amiga would recognize. So clearly, it's the power of the Amiga's "Intuition" system at work here. :)

Matpat :“ That’s a lot of information for a FAKE book “ Me : hahaha yeah isn’t that right ScOtt CaWtHoN

Sayuri: is this what it feels like to be stabbed in the heart? Me: idk, ask yuri

I just want to point out that the music at 10:18 was essentially demonic “pop goes the weasel”

7:56 My mind: IT'S COVID

They weren't wrong when they said psychological horror, i couldnt sleep that night. Its terrifying

How to beat doki doki 1: delete the game 2: delete steam 3: buy every Monika body pillow and burn them all and you're done

What happens if you copy the character files and when monika deletes them you put your copy’s in

Still waiting for that sequel this game teased years later. Still an amazing theory.

*intro glitches out* Me: “Ight ima hide in the comments section”

I thought they were joking when they said “this is a scary game” :(

One of the best theories we've got from matpat. You'll be missed✊

Coming back and watching the first two theory's after ddlc+ is such a ride in terms of new lore and changing theory's

Monika: play with me Mattpat: no Monika: Lets make theory’s Mattpat: YES

I can’t wait for the absolute field day Mat is going to have when DDLC Plus is released

I’ve watched this video 6 different times, But I SWEAR TO GOD THE “nothing is real,” GIVES ME CHILLS EVERYTIME

“Steph are you pranking me?” Steph who voiced Monika in the opening: yesn’t

rules of ddlc (spoilers) if their name has 6 letters (sayori, monika), they'll become self aware (same applies if they have a natural eye color). if their name ends in "ri" (yuri, sayori), they'll confess their love to you and commit die.

3:56 "Leaves a lot dangling" That joke's worse than Monika's "Left her hanging" joke

11:43 “LATER THIS WEEK”
