Wow! This is the longest video I’ve ever produced! It’s a whopping 20 minutes, 25 seconds long.
In this video, I discuss the biggest obstacle to Yandere Simulator’s development. If you visit this blog frequently, you can probably guess what it is.
What’s next?
Did you know that I planned to release two games on April Fools’ Day? The first game was Kuudere Simulator 2, but the second game was actually going to be a dating sim where the player dates a certain character from Yandere Simulator! I even asked an artist to create illustrations for it!
I decided to scrap the dating sim because I felt guilty using my time for anything other than working on Yandere Simulator’s next big feature. However, tomorrow I plan to release the dating sim’s illustrations and script, in case somebody would like to turn the dating sim into a reality.
When I do this, I will also upload a “Bug-Fixing Build” of Yandere Simulator, because the most recent build has a handful of super-embarrassing bugs in it.
I hope you’ll enjoy what I release tomorrow!

Wow… This is just getting ridiculous.
DEVPAAAAAAAAAAAAAI notice me(?
I mean this is a crazy suggestion, but why not deal with e-mails in spurs instead of constantly watching out for//answering them?
were you even listening video he said to NOT GIVE SUGGESTIONS
Actually, he meant don’t email him suggestions. He rarely reads the comments section, so putting it here is very unlikely to waste his time, or for him to even see it. Don’t email it tho. Emails are bad.
I need to correspond with volunteers on an hourly / daily basis in order to implement significant new features into the game on a bi-weekly basis.
Also, if I go for even one day without checking my e-mail, then the next day, my inbox is stuffed with hundreds of unanswered e-mails.
That ending broke my heart. Dev, you are a wonderful developer and you are still nice. I hope you feel better soon Dev and people stop with this shit. I hope you get a good night’s sleep tonight.
Kinda wish there was a way to have emails filtered by content – sort of like having your volunteers attach a specific message in there that would automatically flag messages… Wouldn’t work with the annoying people sending shitty bug reports though…
I wish I could help you Yandere Dev. I wish I could take every single tiny bit of stress off of you. I ADMIRE you! Even after all this time, you still keep making the game. I would’ve given up a long time ago. No matter WHAT, I’ll be your #1 fan girl! I luv u!
I hope we won’t have to see Midori cry again I hope people notice that your stressed out about this
Honestly I’m not happy to see that your making videos about email when you have said the words don’t send email that’s useless or a waste of time
I feel so bad that you’re feeling so stressed out! Some people are just jerks, you know?
The fans (the nice ones, anyway) are here for you! Don’t forget that there’s still some nice, non-troll fans out there!
Please, try to keep positive. That end really did make me sad. You’re amazing for being able to withstand all of that for 2 years. Heck, if you need a break from Yandere Sim for a bit, I would understand.
Do what you need to do, Dev. We’re here to support you.
Wow, you have some batshit crazy Yandere fan girls after you, YandereDev! Watch out!!
Because the emails won’t wait for him. They’ll just keep piling up until he has to devote several days to answering them.

Having multiple browser windows open slows down your computer dramatically – just try opening 100 windows of your favourite browser, Yandere Simulator, Visual Studio and Adobe Premiere at the same time. And if that’s not enough start playing YouTube in all of the browsers.
maybe you have to watch the whole video….
nobody can help stupid people that call others stupid…
Create an email for questions and suggestion. But don’t ever answer them let them just keep sending until they get tired of waiting for you to reply. I know I would. I feel really bad that you have to go through all those emails
I hope you’re mentally sane when all is said and done with this game. Thanks for putting up with your fans Dev ❤
…..
I think you just need to report and block for spam everyone who tries to email you with stupid shit you’ve already said to not send.
At least over time the influx will slow.
Also, people REALLY need to learn to think twice before doing this sort of thing. Honestly, it’s not like you haven’t warned them already to stop.
I totally agree about the already having warned people about this, but sometimes I feel that some valuable content might be lost if the same people who contribute to the massive amount of shit that he’s facing actually provide some useful content… Either way, I don’t want YandereDev to go completely insane. Take a break for a couple of weeks – your mental health is more important than the game.
IDK, what are the chances that anyone who’s just spamming YandereDev with bullshit he’s already said to stop sending is going to send him anything useful? Probably close to nil.
I have many friends online that have accidentally asked him for a suggestion or a question to be answered. However, they have also learned from it and begun reporting bugs. If people were to be blocked by Dev, if they had something very important to say afterwards, they wouldn’t be able to.
They’d be able to share it on the blog or on the wikia, in that case. Other people (people who werent blocked) would report it for them.
Yanderedev Yanderedev, how about you *gunshot* *dies*
Since people play the game and email you more than they watch your videos or pay attention to your blog, I think you should put it in the game before the player starts the game-play (if that makes sense).
Okay, that’s actually a very good idea.
It’d be good if it showed for a while, like 10 seconds, and couldn’t be skipped. It’d suck for impatient people but it might do something to help
Well, ten seconds at very least.15 might be better… i don’t know really.. eheh
I commented that on a different post, but now thinking it over I think that a lot of the people sending him these e-mails probably don’t even read the blog and just watch YouTube videos of Yandere Simulator. So though I think it definitely would help, I don’t think it would stop them. Nevertheless, I 100% agree with your comment.
i have an idea, how about you get a few people to test out the new update and have them report bugs and mistakes they find instead of having everybody email you.
What if they don’t find critical bugs? I’m not saying that the current system is foolproof but it’s a hell of a lot better than only having specific people able to report bugs.
Ugh. I’m trying to please everyone’s idea for an “amazing idea.” I’m starting to feel like the Dev. I’ll just quote him.
“Stop…stop right THERE. After two years of this nonsense, I’ve already heard EVERY SINGLE POSSIBLE SUGGESTION about how I can solve my email problem. There is no idea that you can possibly suggest that I haven’t already shot down. So don’t send me your ‘brilliant ideas’ about how to solve my email problems. The only way you can help me solve my email problems is to STOP SENDING ME EMAILS.”
this video is right WE WANT YANDERE SIM!
Yandere Dev, Yandere Dev!! Why don’t you just-
*gasp*
*spluttering noise*
*collapsing noise*
YandereDev: E-Mails are overrated
why does he have blue eyelashes?
Man, I wish I had your work ethic.
Dev should probably get it through his thick head that there are gonna be trolls that email him stupid stuff on purpose, and idiots that don’t know how to follow instructions. Dev is the true idiot here, this email problem is never gonna stop, and the only thing Dev can do about it is stop making these idiotic videos over and over again.
I think YandereDev feels that if people see the same message enough times they’ll get it and stop sending shitty emails. I’m not saying that you’re wrong, just that different people see things differently.
YandereDev really shot himself in the foot this time. He doesn’t have the right mindset to solve a problem (look at the /r/Games thread about this video https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/4d4zz2/yandere_simulators_biggest_problem/).
“I can’t fix this problem, there are NO PROPER SOLUTIONS.”
You’re living in the real world, where nothing ever goes right. It’s time to compromise.
By making these videos, he’s at least cutting down some of the emails. You should really understand how it feels to get the hell annoyed out of you.
If you actually watched the ENTIRE VIDEO, he doesn’t just mean for those internet trolls to stop, but the actual idiots that legitimately ask idiotic questions out of curiosity, disregarding the FAQ. He doesn’t say anything about internet trolls in the video because he knows they exist entirely to ruin his existence as a developer. He’s just trying to stop the actual idiots from sending him emails so the internet trolls are just a “delete and move on” deal.
Why did I even respond to this? You’re just mindlessly criticizing the Dev, and don’t even give a suggestion.
I did watch the whole video, but no matter what, stupid emails will NEVER stop. And by making these videos, he may be knocking some people out, but he’s still attracting even more trolls. These videos are getting so annoying that I wanna start spamming him with emails until he gets it through his thick head that these emails will never stop. I’m sure it’s really annoying, but it doesn’t matter, some things you can’t control, and he’ll have to deal with that
Is anybody else here seeing a smiley face at the bottom of the page?
Jesus fucking Christ how hard is it to just not email something? The way I see it, these dumbasses would get so fucking pissed if this was happening to them, so why are they content to do it to someone who is pretty much handing them a kickass game/debug over to them for free (at this time, at least)?! At least they actually get to PLAY it (I have a Mac, not a PC)!
I’m perfectly content to sit here and watch the videos and NOT bug the shit out of someone to the point that they’ve literally started snapping at everyone.
I feel that the people emailing YandereDev can’t see the problems of having 100+ emails a day since they’ve never been in that situation before. Again, as stated in the video a lot of the people emailing him are “12 y/o children” with little or no sense of responsibility. The problem’s only going to get worse as more and more people hear about the game. Personally, I can see a time where he’s getting 10+ bug reports about the same bug every day. That will not end well. (Sorry for the rant. I’m just really fed up with it too)
Those 12 -year-olds are stupid. They aren’t smart enough to see how this slows Dev down. Me and My sister are fans of the game and we’re not stupid enough to email him with questions we have. We just talk about it amoust ourselves until we see the answer in the FAQ or in a video. I’m old enough to know how annoying 12 years can be. I have a lot of cousins who are 12 or younger and they annoy the hell out me with pointless questions, so I know how you feel Dev. But most likely those 12 year olds won’t understand. I’ve even met someone in my class who is erriely simpler to Mirdori. She annoys everyone. Hope your Email problem does get Better Dev. We are all wishing for you 🙂
YANDERE DEV PUT KUBZ SCOUTS IN THE VIDEO!!!! *screams*
Umm… is anyone else worried about Alex/YandereDev?
I’m concerned for him as well. I think he’s starting to crumble under the stress…
LOL at the little girls getting wet over YanDev
Me. He should take care of his mental health and if I was him working on the game 12 hours a day everyday… When I get out of my house I’d probably feel tired af. 😭😭😭 I really think he shouldn’t work 12 hours a day everyday. The ending of the video made me teary. 😭
im just 9 year old and i made a comic already about yandere simualtor
i wish i could give it to YandereDev when im 18
Do your parents know you play this, honestly? I have kids and I love this game, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable with them playing it, let alone watch it.
Fisrt, you shouldnt really be paying this game, honestly….I think your parents should check out more the games you play….but you see, what he doesnt want is kids willing to volunteer for the game. If what you’re going to send is only fan work, then its ok. Did you even watch the entire video? o-õ
Will everyone please stop with these ageist insults? I, personally, am not a child, but seeing this over and over, the condescending remarks to children because they aren’t at the age requirements to be able to play the game, it’s just repetitive. For instance, the game Call of Duty has children on every day. Although it wasn’t meant for their ages, they learned how to play it to the fullest. However, if the children are sending YandereDev stupid emails, then off to the fiery pits of hell they go.
I’m not really insulting him, but ok.(Im talking tô him like I would talk tô a cousin of mine). It’s just that I really don’t like Kids of his age (he is 9!) playing these kinds of games…
yandere dev’s snapped
Hello yanderedev,i’m a huge fan of your game, and i just wanted to say thank you.Thank you for making the game,going through stupid emails for our sake (fans of your work),for spending so much patient and hours of your life for this game.Even if you don’t see this or answer this,i’m happy.So, i’m giving you a virtual hug with lots of positive energy \o/ ~ Greetings, from a brazillian girl who loves your game,seeing it grow and love it’s developer! ❤
Yandere dev looks kawaii ^^
WAIT ….OMG ITS SENPAI
As I watched Midori start crying and say her “okay…” line, I can’t help but think that she doesn’t represent the type of person that would e-mail Ynadere Dev now after so many blog posts about not e-mailing him…
He is probably popular enough that the “Midori’s” are more likely actually trolls that WILL NEVER STOP EVER and would laugh in your face instead of cry and say “okay…”. People ignore his reasons for not wanting a secretary because it is legitimately the only solution to this e-mail problem. I personally only understand some of his rationale against the idea.
Yandere simulator is just too big of a concept for this one guy to handle and videos like this only exemplify that fact… He needs a number two of some description if not a secretary. “New roommate wanted, must want to help with indie game,” lol.
Kudos to your work ethic. I sincerely hope that people take a moment and realize that you are a one man with 24 hours to exist each day and no more. I hope the avalanche of “dweeb-mail” comes to a stop, now that you raised the awareness of this problem to the highest plane I can imagine. Stay safe, stay sane. You’re doing fantastic work. 🙂
YandereDev your doing a great job man and I hope that despite people being complete idots you still mange to keep some of your humanity while creating this game.
And after this video, YandereDev’s e-mail account exploded thanks of hatred of angry 12 years old and younger kids who seriously should not even be play these kind of games….. Poor guy is so going to snap soon….
This right here. Begging for people to stop sending him emails won’t help. Kids won’t watch a 20-minute video about emails, or read a wall of text about it. They sure as hell have too much of an attitude to stop emailing him. This is excluding the trolls that will screw with him even more seeing how frustrated he was in this video. A forum with a team of moderators is the best solution. Moderators will delete posts with incorrect format for volunteers and bug reports, and notify YandereDev of any notable volunteers or bug reports. Then YandereDev can send that volunteer a private email for collaboration. Suggestions and fan art will be in their own forum, and the good ones will get lots of likes/comments/views, making it easy for him to find gems. Problem solved. He keeps whining about this problem, but doesn’t try any solutions for it. I don’t get it, I really don’t.
Seriously, if YandereDev keeps going like this, the game won’t even come out in 2022. By the time he finishes the game, if it even finishes at all, it will be irrelevant. He needs a proper pipeline NOW. 8-12 hours is a lot of time to program; it is unacceptable that he has to spend that much time to sift through emails. The worst part is he’s the only one programming. He doesn’t want to train another programmer, so he needs to bear the weight of being the only one writing code. The game cannot progress if the programmer is spending 8-12 hours on emails. This is so frustrating to watch.
Please YandereDev, set up a simple forum and give it a shot. What you’re doing now is NOT working.
I would think many of the problems involving moderators are the same as those with a secretary. Namely, that he’s got to train and babysit them.
Yeah, there are ways to make it better. Telling people to stop emailing him isn’t going to work. Whether it be trolls, people who just don’t read, or people new to the community, there will always be people sending him emails that shouldn’t be.

This is a trust issue more than anything. All he needs is to find people who can identify posts with incorrect format, and delete them. Hardly a job requiring babysitting. Heck, just watching this video is probably enough training. It is easy to identify a 12 year old’s drawing or a bug report with no reproduction steps. He can then go through the forum himself knowing that all the posts he reads will be worth his time. He will be able to communicate with volunteers more efficiently since they will be through a private email, and he will find high quality volunteers and bug reports easily as they are just there on the forum. I am certain this is much better than spending 240+ hours a month reading stupid emails. Thousands of hours per year is a stupid amount of time for a problem so trivial.
@Erik
I agree. This problem won’t go away, and his begging only further worsens the problem. It is also really irritating to see for longtime followers of this game, who keep watching these videos and reading these blog posts on the matter. It is really testing my passion for the game. Months upon months of seeing him suffer, yet doing nothing about it.
This is so foolish that it’s foolish that I’m even responding to it.
In another blog post, he’s asked by MIDORI the same exact question. That would just be another place for him to monitor, which would take even MORE time.
Your “brilliant idea” has already been suggested. Even been brought up by the embodiment of the idiots on the internet, Midori, brought it up.
“Foolish”, yet you refuted none of my points other than mentioning a flaw of my “brilliant idea” that I already addressed. You are a class act. You’re 14 kid, don’t get so full of yourself when you know nothing about PR, game development, or even working. Do you even have a job? Why are you playing something like this?
Dev, you’re definitely not working smart about this. If all you care about are bug reports, volunteer applications and current volunteers — there are tried and tested ways of dealing with these. Create a forum for bug reports, maybe hire moderators to make sure bug reports are in a standard format. Give current volunteers a different email to communicate by so that you can check only that email when time is tight and you can locate things easily. Or use Slack, if you’re working as a team. Applications can go to your email account but must be tagged in the email subject, or another forum board.
I heard that you used to work in a game development company, so why aren’t you using a proper pipeline for these things? I don’t understand. 8-12 hours of sieving through inane emails would be enough for anyone to devise a more functional method to handle this email problem (a basic email filter for one, and insisting that people tag emails or risk them being discarded), but you insist on sticking to your guns. It’s almost masochistic. It’s frustrating for a regular follower of the game, and an aspiring indie game developer myself. There are so many things going wrong here, but you don’t seem to be making good choices.
I know. I’m an Unity developer myself, and I cannot imagine losing 8-12 hours a day off the bat to read emails. He doesn’t try anything to fix it, despite this sinking his development time. 8 hours a day in a 30 day month is 240 hours. That is so much time that could be used for implementing features…gone. I’d imagine that he lost thousands of hours to this issue already. It is ridiculous and incompetence at its worst. I don’t want to be mean, but if YandereDev is accepting money from Patreon and thinking about starting a Kickstarter, he needs to get his shit together. I would not give money to a dev that spends so much time sifting through junk, but not doing anything about it despite there being tools developed specifically for this problem. He’s a programmer for crying out loud, fixing problems and developing solutions is what he is supposed to do. I agree with you, being a fan of this game is so frustrating.
Yeah, this is very true. I even went about creating a model for how a multiple email solution would work. You can see it in action here: http://imgur.com/a/MlNOh
It’s really too bad. I get that YanDev has trouble trusting others when it could hurt is game, but he’s hurting his game more by not taking proper steps to keep things under control.
While I think a forum is better, this is certainly a better solution than what he probably has in place now. Nice work. I would also hope that he is blocking people who send him junk, but I’m not expecting it at this point.
And yeah, I just wish he could trust other people. He really is hurting this game. Not only that, but the followers of this game that really want the game to succeed. Whether it’s a secretary or a forum with moderators or something else entirely, he needs help to fix this. Otherwise, I don’t see how I can stay optimistic about this game. Sigh.
This is great, I hope Dev actually takes a look at this and sees what he can learn. A scheme like this only takes like 1-2 hours at most to set up and can save him so many hours
Yeah. I did all of this like 45 minutes, and most of the time was spent trying to remember exactly how I wrote the feeder emails. 😀
Just saying that mail.com’s layout is pretty different from gmail, so I don’t really think that tutorial is pretty useful for YandereDev. Also, if he were to create a new gmail account, all of his previous emails wouldn’t be transferred over unless he forwarded them (which is a pain since he’ll have to dig up old emails) and he may miss some important info in the middle of transferring.
Never used mail.com so I’ve got no opinion on it. and yeah it might suck for a few days, but it’d save him a ton of time in the long run. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices like that.
THANK you, your comment is very well-said.
What I don’t understand is, he says he wants professional volunteers, right? Why not look through portfolios and resumes to find a well-qualified and experienced secretary or office assistant?
I understand his points completely, being in the business field and even having to train some noobs.
You can train one person, you can’t train the world. I agree with the filters thing as well.
I’m sure YandereDev doesn’t want to be pushed around or have someone ruin the game. I myself am a black-and-white thinker like him. But the game and subsequent emails from it are getting way too much for one person to handle.
His email method may have worked when the game was unpopular and had no volunteers, but that’s changed now, and I think it’s time the email situation does as well.
Just realized I missed out one category: fanworks.
Set up a tumblr page, allow submissions or reblog them. If you like a piece of art and you want to use it in a video, message the artist on tumblr. Easy enough.
He even has a tumblr already.
Baka.
That would just be more time wasted.
He would have to be constantly logging in and out of email accounts.
…really I admire you to have to deal with such a BIG load of bullshit and haven’t give up on what you want.
Dev, I’ve noticed through vague language here that you may reply to all your emails? Do you? If yes, why?? I feel like that would waste way more time than just skimming them to see if they’re important. If you don’t reply to the emails then sorry for the misconception. No one expects you to reply unless it’s a serious offer
I think it’s about time to accept that telling people “Stop” is just as bad a solution to the problem as all the others that have been discarded. I couldn’t tell you WHAT the best solution would be, but the “Stop” idea sounds like it’s run its course and it’s time to try something different.
That’s exactly what I was saying. Telling people to stop sending emails is obviously not working
Reading some of the comments in here, now I’m imagining a new character in the development videos, Himedere Chan, who unlike Midori, gives forceful recommendations and berates Yandere Dev for not following them.
“You’d be a fool to ignore my guidance. Be grateful I serenade you with my wisdom and my beautiful voice!”
She gets just as brutally murdered when Yandere Dev gets frustrated.
The problem with that occurs when the people the character would represent are actually right. Then Yandere Dev would look like a huge jerk for making fun of people trying to help him and feel like he is eating crow when he ends up following the advice, much more so than now with Midori where she comes across as well intentioned.
I do think many of the messages are well intentioned. I think that having a forum is a good idea. I think having multiple emails where everything is automatically sent to the main email, but that main email uses filters to be able to automatically sort them into different folders/labels/what have you could help out. I think going back to old videos that invite suggestions to include annotations to say “I get too many emails these days, please don’t do this any more” might help a miniscule amount.
But at the same time, I think YD needs a few weeks/months of not getting constantly spammed by emails with useless/repetitive/etc questions/suggestions/etc to be able to think clearly.
90% of the emails he gets are well intentioned. It’s just the stupidity that follows. Usually in the comments (and I’m going to suppose that the same goes for emails) it goes as follows: “YandereDev YandereDev! I love ur game thx for working on it for 2 yeers! But can u put in the rivals now cuz its not fun with no win” Aside the horrible grammar, I see people constantly doing this. If you’re going to compliment him, don’t expect him to keep your compliment in mind and make him feel like he owes you a favor and will put in the rivals. It’s not the intentions, but the context it comes in.
It should be noted I have been spoiled by Gmail’s thread ability, so I don’t necessarily take into account the fact that other email services don’t have that option.
I’m sorry you have to go through all that, YandereDev… I’m amazed that you’ve managed to keep your cool for 2 years. I know I wouldn’t have been able to! Stay strong, the end will be rewarding. You’re amazing, Dev.
(I know this will probably never get read, I just needed to say it and he said to not email him, so…)
There’s a pretty good chance that the people sending stupid emails aren’t the ones who read this blog and watch the videos complaining. If they have then they are most likely trolling and nothing really can stop someone like that. All you can really do is have extremely strict subject line guidelines, like the ones used for volunteers, for people to follow as a rudimentary IQ test. Anyone who can’t follow simple formatting instructions can be safely ignored. In that way people who send question or suggestion emails would not fall into any proper category and would get thrown into the junk pile unless they purposely formatted it to be misleading. Honestly all anyone who follows you on this project can do is say “Yeah, fuck those guys who keep bothering you with stupid emails!” The emails aren’t going to stop because you put too much on your plate and you got too popular amongst a segment of the internet population comprised of people who don’t read faqs, trolls, the passionate yet unskilled, and assholes like me who write long comments on your blog that aren’t helpful anyway. Whatever. I enjoy reading/listening about the work you put into this and I hope things get better.
THANK YOU FOR PUTTING THIS INTO WORDS FOR ME
midorigurin@gmail.com
Honestly, one thing I would have done is put a contact page on this website where people can send him emails. They can all be sent to one account, can automatically be sorted out, can allow him to ignore useless e-mails. And I know he doesn’t want suggestions. But I don’t think he will read this anyways. And since one of my last jobs was developing WordPress sites, I have built webpages like that before. Unfortunately, it would require either him taking the time to develop this website more, or letting someone else have access to the website which he would have to oversee. So it still wouldn’t work out probably.
Honestly I think you’re just being stupid about this email situation. Do you know how people work? Do you know how the INTERNET works?? I seriously thought after all this time that you would understand you can’t get people to stop just by asking nicely. Even if that did help, there will still be tons of people who haven’t seen this video or your other posts about this and will email you not realizing that it’s a problem. You HAVE to change the way you manage emails if you want this problem to stop.
Now I know you didn’t want any more suggestions on how to handle the email problem but I’ve taken your criticisms into consideration if you care. I’m just posting this because I hope maybe there’s a rare chance that it will help.
Make one new email, just one. This is now your primary email. Get a contact list of all the current volunteers you correspond with or have found helpful in the past and make a list of people who regularly send you helpful bug reports. Email those people to let them know to use your new email address only.
Now your original email, get a volunteer or team of volunteers to moderate it. You can find someone capable, it’s really not that hard. If you cannot find one person you trust to do it you have some trust issues man.
Rules: don’t answer questions, only forward good quality bug reports and viable possible volunteers, and fan stuff. the important thing is that they FORWARD it to you, so you’re still only using one email address.
My suggestions not perfect but it sure as hell is better than what you’re trying to do?? You know a lot about games but nothing about managing public correspondence. Someone else suggested setting up an email filter too, that might work too.
Hoohoo, this takes the cake.
1. Making a new email would take time and he would also have to update the volunteers page.
2. There are constantly more artists/3D models/Voice actors volunteering for Yandere Simulator.
3. “get a volunteer or team of volunteers to moderate it?” That’s the most frequently asked suggestion ever! Watch the entire video or read some of the “STOP SENDING ME EMAILS” page! Having volunteers would risk spreading misinformation, risk sending spoilers on social media, he would have to take time to make them do their job right, etc.
4. I have to be a grammar nazi here. “My suggestion is not perfect, but it sure as hell is better than what you’re trying to do.”
5. Setting up an email filter would risk having the emails filtered incorrectly.
6. And More!
Serious question: do things like changing hairstyle count as a debug feature? I had a bug to report, but I wasn’t sure if it’d count and I didn’t want to risk sending an useless e-mail and waste your time.
I expect player customization will work differently in the final game compared to how it is controlled now. I would consider it leaning more toward a debug feature.
Ok, I guess I won’t send anything then.
In Gmail, at least, you can have one account set up to receive mail from multiple email addresses, which negates the logging in and logging out time loss. And then you can set up specific rules for tagging the email and for sorting it in to specific folders. So for example he could set up an address for volunteers that just moves those mail to a folder and also stays in his inbox, because that will be something he uses frequently and if he wanted he could an email for questions that skips the inbox and goes straight to the trash folder. It really doesn’t take very long to set up and is a godsend if you are receiving a lot of emails every day. (I work IT and have to mange the inbox of a CEO who gets ~2,000 emails a day with much less than half needing his actual attention)
I realize he said he has tried everything but honestly that’s a feature of Gmail that is rarely used and since the complaint was with the log in / log out process it doesn’t reflect the solution I suggested above.
This is the third time he asked people to stop sending you stupid emails, by my count. And I have the impression that the problem keeps getting worse despite his repeated pleas. It’s only logical that as the popularity of his game increases, so does the ammount of emails he receives, so will the ammount of time he spents going through them. Given that he says that if he were to receive half as much email as he does now, he will have twice the time to work of the game, he spents two thirds of his time reading emails.
If I interpret the video correctly, only ten percent of the emails he receives are worth reading, meaning that reading worthwile emails should only take up about 6.6% percent of his time. Meaning that a secretary, once trained, will increase the time he spents on the game from 33% to 93,4%, thus almost tripling the development speed.
But he already stated that he won’t be hiring a secretary. If we assume that the email problem gets worse as the game’s popularity increases, he soon won’t have any time left to work on the game. In other words, development will halt or slow down to a crawl. I see a very real possibility that the emails will kill the game.
Dear Yandere Dev,
As someone who is very business-minded and has worked as an executive assistant for an entire branch of a Fortune 500 company, you are going to have to trust an Executive Assistant/Secretary/Office Manager eventually. You are spending a third to one half of your day just reading emails, which is slowing down your progress to a snail’s pace, and you making videos like these only wastes your time and is turning many people off to your game. Your PR and email maintenance would be short work for a talented Office Manager, leaving you time to work on the game, enjoy your time developing the game more, and relieving you of much stress.
Your reasons not for hiring one are valid, but they’re reasons that every game developer with a project this size or larger must deal with for the sake of their game.
1. Not wanting to babysit a secretary. Someone who has experience will know what to look for and what to ignore with minimal training. Your “useful” email requirements are very easy to determine from looking at an email for less than thirty seconds.
2. Responding to emails incorrectly. A simple “this is the extent of what you can say” is standard for most if not all companies, because all companies need to avoid misinformation.
3. Filtering emails incorrectly. You have already told the entire internet what emails are valid and useful to you. If it fits your qualifications, it gets sent to you. This is assistant 101.
4. Being lazy. This is a matter of prudence in hiring.
5. Seeing spoilers or confidential information. Every single company on this earth has this issue. This is what you train and pay assistants for- to handle information and knowing what is confidential and not ready to disseminate. Also, non-compete and confidentiality clauses in hiring contracts.
All in all, there are people whose job it is to handle the details of a company/group/individual professionally and to avoid the headaches of day-to-day office maintenance. There is a reason there are SEPARATE PR/HR/Dev departments in large companies. If you would like to remain a one-man operation that is fine, but know that the problems you have outlined are easily solvable with expanding your team.
Thank you for your time, and thank you for creating and continuing to work on such a great game.
This is a wonderful comment. Unfortunately, I don’t see YandereDev following any of this. He is so against the idea of a secretary, at the expense of his own project. He’s a brilliant developer plagued by trust and management issues. Unfortunately, a one-man operation really isn’t viable. He can remain the sole developer, but he cannot remain the sole person managing PR. It just doesn’t work at the scale of the community he has around the game.
As a perfectionist myself I can understand the hesitation. It’s a shame, though, because I would be more than happy to use my skills and experience for a project like this that I personally support. I can see a lot of the qualities that I possess in YandereDev, and I highly enjoy working with people as ambitious and detail-oriented as myself.
*Uncontrollable laughter*
Is this real? Oh. Oh my god it’s real.
*Uncontrollable laughter*
Considering you’ve taken it upon yourself to play lackey for YD, do you really have anything actually helpful to say? From your profile it says you’re 14. So you’ve never held a job and never worked. Maybe when you get older you’ll gain some work experience and then you’ll be able to understand the logistics of a development team more.
I see you show up in the comments quite a lot. You have nothing useful to contribute. I’m guessing you’re one of those teens that think he’s above everyone else and wants to be edgy. Defending YandereDev because you look up to him? I understand, you’re impressionable at this age. Seriously though, all you’re doing is making yourself look stupid. But then again, you’re not mature enough to understand that it seems. You really think you know better than someone who has actual experience working? You’re extremely arrogant. If you really think we’re all so stupid, let’s hear any ideas you have.
Yeah, also if he’s really worried about confidentiality he could probably hire a lawyer to draft a NDA agreement for cheap. Hell you can but one for $14.95 on Legal Zoom.
I’m surprised he’s not already utilized NDAs for his volunteers.
Seriously? Can’t trust one person not to spoil stuff? Wasnt the plan to eventually kickstart this and get a whole dev team set up to finish it? How is one person, who you could have sign a non-desclosure agreement and other stuff in the contract, and would be the most obvious source of any leak, LESS likely to spoil stuff than a whole team? Considering all of the stuff that goes into fodder for Let’s Players on youtube, and the refusal to do anything that would increase the speed of development, I wonder about this project…
I’m going to take this from other games.
Did you know anything about the story or features of Dark Souls III?
Do you know what the next Call of Duty will be?
Did you have Undertale spoiled by the team?
No, because they are professionals, just like Dev wants to hire. If you’re seriously suggesting this, think about these three examples I thought of in five seconds. There were no spoilers about Dark Souls III. Not even Black Ops III was spoiled. There was absolutely nothing said about it by the team. If you’re saying that it’s an Indie game that would work differently, then Undertale contradicts that. Undertale is another Indie game that was created with a team. However, the story or ending was never spoiled. Please, for the love of all that is holy “wonder about your comment…”
And Dark Souls III and Call of Duty both had professional PR teams to handle PR. Undertale was a one-man project, but it also wasn’t the size of Yandere Simulator either.
YandereDev, as much as I respect him, he is getting ridiculous. He would rather waste his time trying to regulate the behavior of millions of people than change the way he (one person) handle the project.
He is trying to do way to much for one single person: he code, he’s a team manager, he’s a communication manager, he’s the “secretary” and is the chro of the project. He let your volunteers do thing that you can’t do, but he rather handle things he can do by himself, and I can understand than.
He’s a brilliant game developer, I’m sure he manages his team well and he treat well his Fandom. But God, he’s a bad secretary and CHRO.
He didn’t shut down any of his fan proposition, he just declares that they wouldn’t work. His reasons not to get a secretary are good, but the reasons to get one are way better. Secretary are not dumb, they know how to do their work way better than he does. Spending 12 hours once to teach them how to handle the mails is way better than spending 20 hours per week doing it himself. Dev is already baby’ing your Fandom with those hundred of “don’t send me e-mail” posts. Learning to delegate is hard, but it is a big mandatory step to take to succeed.
The goal of the suggestion box/mail is not to open the box and read every single one of the suggestion. It is to totally ignore it while people think you’re listening them. *wink wink*. It’s harsh but true.
The problem have hundreds of differents solutions, no perfect solution but there are multiple way to ease the burden.
And I just want to say that I love this game, I’m ready to wait ten more years to have the finished version and I’m very thankful to YandereDev.
If there is no perfect solution you can think of, why even make this comment? This is ultimately unhelpful an meaningless, even if the Dev saw it. There is absolutely nothing to learn from this comment. This is just mindless criticism aimed towards the dev in double-space form.
Uhh…hate to break it to you, but not all secretaries are perfect. A lot of them are dumb. And a lot of them would want money, if he wanted to get one that would do their job perfectly. And guess what? He’s developing this with no profit, like he said in the video. So…yeah.
Ok, I’m going to say this:
STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT PEOPLE SENDING STUPID EMAILS.
I’ve never sent an email to YandereDev and I probably never will, but this videos are starting to get under my skin.
To receive hundreds of emails every day surely is a huge deal, and I’m very sorry for him, but really, if people haven’t stopped by now to send stupid emails they probably never will, there are some people that just doesn’t care and/or understand. Keep telling them to stop is NOT going to work, not on a long shot, and it’s probably just going to get worse with time.
Given the popularity that this game has reached and the amount of emails that INEVITABLY comes with it, sorting them manually isn’t just a viable option anymore, YandereDev needs to understand that and find a solution. He doesn’t want a secretary? Fine, then he needs to find some other way to sort his emails, he sure isn’t the first person in the world that got this kind of problem and there got to be some way to filter emails that’s better than to open them all manually.
Good Lord.
Gambate Yandere Dev !! ❤
I really admire you for working that hard on this fantastic game, if I meet a midori specimen I'll blow off their head with a coffee spoon ^^
You know, the worst part is that people will probably still send stupid emails.
Yander-chan could kill people with email!
I actually already know every single thing Yandere Dev said. Seriously guys, stop with the emails!
Promote don’t send dumb email to Yanderedev through your youtube videos guys!
It must blow to consistently get shit emails from people. Most people don’t really take care to think “Is this wasting both my and this guy’s time?” Still, the game is coming along well and hopefully the video cuts down the bullshit. With that, more progress can be made. Anyone else can’t wait for the new kill animations?
Does that mean I can’t play yandere simulator? xD
I’m 14 here but I play this for fun .-.
14 years old is diferent from12 years old, you know? He said 12 year old kids.
A game like yandere sim would get at least a age restriction of 16 or maybe even 18 years.
