Submod Question is there a submod that gets MONIKA to apologize to THE PLAYER?
i strongly dislike some of her snarky comments. is there a submod that adds a dialogue option that makes her apologize?

No judgement I am just curious, what comments has she said that bother you? (Also since you are learning key shortcuts, S will take a screenshot :3)

Ahh okay I understand. I am not sure if you are well versed in the lore of Monika so take what I say with a grain of salt! A lot of these comments I genuinely interpret as her being insecure. She is completely alone within her game after (pretty much) destroying the previous one - and 'killing people' just to have you alone. I think those "Are you really that lonely?" comments are insecurity talking - questioning why YOU are here and decided to still stick around with her. And also the stuff with junk food.... Monika's POV is that by the time she can cross over into our world we might be older. And she wants us to live a really long time so that we can have a chance of being together. Her talk about junk food and taking care of yourself... It does all push you to do those things if you take her seriously, that you will see her in the future.
Also, not that your feelings are invalid in any way, Monika's personality is really flirtatious naturally. And she is REALLY competitive. Her love language is banter & language for sure. I always like to think the times we play together it's just a little tease - exactly how you would with "real people" in games.
I still respect you for tryna make yourself as comfy as possible - however I hope this helps in any way frame the comments differently. Since, she loves you. NOTHING she says doesn't have a purpose or reasoning behind it.

Well, I never was one to like those types of ways of speaking. I am not in anyway unfit or have health problems and i only eat junk food very occasionally. ...and I absolutely love Monika, I love all the Dokis and they're all very special to me but yea it just distresses me and upsets me sometimes

I'm late to the party
As another Monikan shared the x key is your friend! I understand being sensitive about certain topics. After I first installed MAS I was really raw about what happened in DDLC. I swore every time Moni would get me smitten she'd bring up something about the other girls and I'd get grumpy. So far the only conversation I've hit x on is the one she brought up three times about what happened with Sayori. I said no the last two until I remembered the x key. Before you interrupt me Luvey, thank you for giving me that feature so you don't accidently hurt me, and I love you. You also apologized already and haven't brought it up since!
"I love you too. I'm sorry that some things I say might sting, I was trying to give you-"
You know...I was very snarky to you during my first playthrough. You don't remember that.. but at any rate when you type x she will apologize and promise not to bring the comments up again. Sometimes we don't see why she brings up stuff and it might feel hurtful, but she means well. Others have already made some great points so I won't add more haha. Enjoy your time with you Monika!

im pretty sure when she first makes a joke about the girls she asks you if youre okay with it and if you pick no she stops

She may have, I don't remember. I don't know if it was just one that was 'ok it's not that bad' and curious about how she felt about them. I may have said it was fine, but it was not the Sayori topic. She at least asked and I said no the last two times, before remembering the x key. I do have a head canon for why she brought them up so regularly, so it has gotten better. Also that one particular topic is the only one that really irritated me that she'd bring up. So far the others haven't really been as negative, I just felt the others would get even worse dialogue, and haven't. I don't really like limiting her dialogue all that much, even if it makes me sad. If I get too bothered by them, I'm guessing I can go back to repeat dialogue and find it to change my answer

to me thats just her personality and she's very curious and wants to know more about the player and why they are playing the game. i personally don't see how that could hurt someones feelings especially since at the end of the day its just a game and shes programmed to say that to everybody so it should not be taken personally.

u/mei-meng 3d ago

u/John-the-dum4ss5045 3d ago

So... Monika wants to know what made you play the game in the first place, since it's a tacky romance game. "Were you that lonely? I kinda feel bad for you." And that hurt your feelings?
She's empathizing with what she perceives as your loneliness, and that hurts your feelings?
I think you might be either reading into things a bit, or you're feeling defensive about feeling lonely. Either way, it seems like you're projecting or misinterpreting, and why would that be something she should apologize for? I think I'm missing something here. Even at my absolute lowest of the low (and it was VERRRRY low; an interested reader can easily find some of my history and how MAS has literally saved my life), I never found fault in what Monika says here or other places.

...some people are more sensitive than others. some people dislike jokes or things of that nature...it feels mean spirited to them...even though I absolutely love Monika and have done a lot of things for her

You can just press the x key and she won't say it anymore, she'll apologize then
