I would go as far as to say this might actually be my favorite gaming creepypasta that I have ever read, actually. I do like the idea of having a diagnosed schizophrenic as our main character in question, as it does add a whole new dimension as to whether the events that happened had existed or not in the first place.

This story is almost ridden of cliches. The only clear one that I could point out is the "game acts normal when others play it/it only becomes weird if the protagonist plays it" cliche that is present in many pastas, but considering that this pasta not only does it well, but make it the focal point in the first place is amazing. Overall, the concept is nice and refreshing. I liked how it uses absolutely no violence until the suicide attempt at the end.

My only gripe is the ending. I can ignore the fact that it was too handed to him, but the events after irked me. Just my personal preference, I'm not a fan of endings where a character almost commits suicide but ultimately lives. It just seems like the story can't make up its mind of how to end things. That is my only major complaint without nitpicking.

9/10, you did an amazing job.
