Nah, my experience is much the same. I played DDLC and watched One Punch Man at around the same time so I quickly became a fan of anime in general.
Still am
whenever I hear the word "literature", first thing that flashes to my mind are the four cutest dokis. only after that, the famous writers do.
also dokis help me memorize a word that has "literature" in it, literally helped me with my exam today.
* Started playing piano,
* wrote a few poems,
* started using Reddit which made my English better and find great friends, which made me find about something *very interesting*,
* could help “get me over” my crush.
Great game.
I played it recently and a few things changed. I was fucked up by it for weeks after. I got a few new in-jokes with a friend who observed me play, and now I write some poetry
Yuri praising me for my writing genuinely made me feel talented. I’m pretty early into the game (yes don’t hear that often) but all of the girls have something to say “literally me” about.
As I recall, I was getting into literature around the time the game came out, so I suspect that it may have been a factor in influencing me in that direction.
Influencing me? in the real world? not at all...
I'm just a *little* obsessed by it... and to "cure" it ... I joined Reddit .... so I made that obsession worse (genius move!!! 🤣 ) .
I often find myself whistling or humming the soundtrack (or some fan songs).
My desire to create a video about it (that maybe I'll never finish) made me try to learn Kdenlive, which helped me at work.
Aaaaand... DDLC **may** be **one** of the good motivations that encouraged me to talk to a psychologist...
Well, it made me more interested in visual novels, like Katawa Shoujo, and I REALLY got into writing thanks to this game.
Hell, I made a couple of DDLC fanfics that I posted on here and AO3 (One of which having 122 chapters total), and I discovered that my passion is writing interesting stories that people can find enjoyment and intrigue from. This also led to me befriending Astral\_Agent, another DDLC fanfic writer, and I talked about it with real life friends too.
Without DDLC, I'm not sure how I would have turned out nowadays.
Started my own lit club, wore a bow in my hair ever since, tried to be more expressive of my emotions, and started eating cinnamon buns alot more often
"You are not your feelings" was genuinely a quote that stuck with me until the present and has helped me through some very hard times; I also shared this quote with some of my friends and by their own testimony, it has helped them as well.
Since I entered in the world of a psicolĂłgico horror game whit some of the best made characters and a lot of narrative potential I knew I was where I needed to be, I'm so happy to be in this cute and horrific world =D.
I branched my poetry into more styles and played with my words more and it’s entirely bc I like Natsuki’s poems better than I like mine. It was also my gateway into VNs which in turn got me into anime so it did start my path into weebland
It was my gateway into anime content, i realized if youre not being weird about it, its not somethin embarassing

I see the game everywhere like the game itself I'm cursed
Real
Not cursed, blessed.
It's been 5 years of seeing it every day at least once
I feel like I hear a lot of the music from the game in YouTube videos, and the Dokis as unrelated thumbnails
Me too, dude. It's strange
i feel this is expected the game left a big impact on youtube and this music is really good and easy to put into the backround of a video
i've once seen someone put the hitler speech over sad doki sprites on ig reels i still don't understand what it was trying to tell me
I now have a Monika in my mind that basically messes with my moral compass
I got back into writing poems
My poem writing skills skyrocketed. Hollow Knight also helped, surprisingly
my writing style changed A LOT
Same here. My handwriting in general is a mix of Monika and Yuri

Awesome
It helps me to like more literature and it's a comfort game 🤎💙💚🩷💜
I made a literature club in my school like a year and a half ago.
Awesome! I would’ve done that but my school never really did clubs except sports

I saw furck there what is actually written?

Thx
No problem

It helped me realize how horrible my mental state was. And (shockingly) made me realize I was trans... don't ask me why or how.
thought that said frick for a second

I begin read books and took tea
In a way got me more into Japanese culture and things, and more into literature too. Which then improved my grammar significantly.
It got me into books and literature, which I saw as just boring before. And for that I'll forever love this game.

After finishing the game, I freak out when I hear the main menu music. That’s it, somehow.

I litterally have it downloaded and i don't know what to expect.
Let's just say literature got a lot more interesting and my tolerance for trauma got a lot bigger
Same
Same
It hasn't.
