So we can confirm he didn't have a dead daughter, right
she was born in 2009. she turned 14 in 2015. she turned 14 in 2016. she died at age 15 in 2019.

so you do the math

Funny you should mention, "Hikkiari" once claimed to be one of the localizers for the original Nier and when a bunch of us looked in the credits to disprove this easy lie. He got really pissy. He even brought it up once again like 3-4 years later after we all cut him off (feel free to look it up on his discord, it's probably still there)


that doesnt track also because nier's localization wasnt just random contract hires, it was farmed out to a specific company, 8-4, who have done a lot of high profile work. a bunch of fire emblem games, nier automata, metal gear rising, some tekken games, etc. the idea that 'oh yeah i do some translation on the side' doesnt track with that. they're a very well-respected company. they aren't a 'gig.'

and also they're based in japan not the us, so it'd be pretty hard to work with them while also living with the dark id apparently???

ok so the name "hikkiari" is bugging me, as I don't know if it's an actual Japanese name, or even a word. I googled it but all I got was this thread and a similar one on kiwifarms from 2016.

hikki is a shortening of hikikomori. basically someone who never leaves their room, often used half-jokingly by nerds to refer to themselves. ari is the japanese word for ant.

i understand a lot of people probably just formed a social group in that discord that dark id barely factored into, so they're reluctant to leave or shut it down, but like, you can just invite everyone to a new discord that's not a playground for a pathological liar.

i mean i dont know why hed come up with the cancer lie in the first place unless he wanted to dump this identity. same with killing off the kid.

my best guess is that he genuinely liked the social circle hed built up but disliked how much Lore hed built up for himself that he had to keep track of (as shown by all the pitfalls hed thrown himself into.) so kill off the kid, kill off the dark id, kill off Squeaky The Cat, then just post permanently as his mod alt. he gets to talk to everyone, he doesnt have to juggle multiple identities, the only lore he has to keep track of is that he's dead. (which is an insane thing to say, but.)

ofc the much simpler solution would have just been to go 'yeah i was bullshitting about some of the military badass stuff sorry' five years ago before dead kid and i doubt anyone would have cut ties with him over it, and then he could have just not mentioned the kid or wife or w/e again. but i dont think anyone's going to accuse him of being smart

Ive been talking with speedball about this since id 'died' and he wasn't even aware of the sex pest claims until Denby's posts. Also I can confirm that Denby is his own person, he has been in voice with Id and other folks, myself included, and spoken together many times. the Cock's Shotgun mod is also a separate person. The only known sockpuppet in the discord was Hikkiari.
theyre all dark id actually.

yea it got really boring when the guys who were in the discord server came in here to cry about something or other.

anyway if speedball is provably not a sex pest that guy should get banned for repeating a false claim as if its fact. itd be one thing if he said 'i heard' or w/e or 'i thought' but just saying it straight up is weird as hell
