It's a day like any other. Kids are playing DONTFORGET CONNECTED and some are still installing the newest v2.7.5b released 2 days before. In this day, I stumbled upon a sketchy website whilst trying to find anything that is related to DFC in every search engines I could ever think of. I think I found this one from Yandex? I don't know. I forgot.

Right off the bat, you could probably notice that it's written in full Russian. But hey check if I am wrong but this somehow this gives a huge impression that a virus has been put in here, haha. It's not just me innit?

I don't really understand some of the stuff written there, tbh.

All I could read is (700 MB) (.msi) and the word KOMMENTAPN idk it sounds like COMMENTS because in my country we said it as KOMENTAR. I love how languages can sometimes meet with each other. xD

So hey, downloading this thing isn't as hard as you think, just click and go.

This is my friend, RedmanGame. He is a russian DFC player, is also a guy with a wonderful spirit. He said that it's just the DFC's Gamejolt Description poorly translated to Russian. And the fact that the description is NEWER than the version itself. Seems real funny, haha.

Sabakira - also a friend - concluded that he is just a russian wannabe guy, and isn't actually russian, but uses a google translate to literally make this neocities website. Okay but like, why should it be russian? Why not just straight up uses English?

Back to the topic, the downloaded result is just a garbage faulty texts thingy. Is it buggy? I don't know, but it certainly gives me a vibe of downloading yume nikki or old japanese game ROM off a website lmaooo.

Upon opening them, here's the wacky part, makes it disappear. Like I was waiting for the funny installer screen thing. But no, it just disappeared. I tried everything to locate the files, but since I am not the nerdiest computer guy, I just don't know how to track a vanishing installer.

I decided to just chat a little in Discord, where out of nowhere, a box popped up, then 3 seconds later... This happened. I don't remember the detail anymore, but it literally gave me the name 'toshiba' right away. Not even asking me for my name! My name's not toshiba...

So I checked my PC name, and yeah, it's damned toshiba. There was an attempt trying to scare me with my real name I guess, LOL.

When I clicked Done, nothing happened. The game closed instantly. So out of fear, I thought that the game is currently infecting my precious laptop, so I did what any normal people would do; restart my laptop.

The game appeared again right after that. Here's the menu:

I don't really remember though, but I felt like I complained about the game only starts whenever my laptop is booted up. Because I can't find the executables to start the game ANYWHERE. I think I restarted two times? I don't know. Maybe because when I clicked literally anything the games instantly crashes, and the only way to get it back is to restart.

What a damn hassle in the arse LOL.

Once I got it running, the differences is nothing!

Literally nothing!

Except one thing though. The traffic cones went gone. The one with the huge RUINS place. With the waterfall and two benches. Yeah, like, there's supposed to be a traffic cone here blocking the path!

I know this isn't my birthday, but if I ever get a present like this in my birthday, I would be terrified like hell and probably SHAT MYSELF BECAUSE OF THIS.

MY LAPTOP WENT DIED AFTER I TRY TO GO IN THAT PLACE, AND IT LOADS REALLY REALLY SLOWLY. BUT WHEN IT DID, IT DIED AGAIN FOR LIKE, DAMNED MINUTES

I don't remember how long I was stuck in this screen tbh, but it did get up again, and throws this funky screen. The difference is that the moment I logged in, it showed up. Like, I thought there has to be some delay to when an game/app can be opened after just turning it on? Weird. What's weirder is the translation of it!

So like, okay, time to wait! I guess. Minutes later, Zorro  pointed out that the site I stumbled upon had already been gone by now. So like, yeah. He quoted it as "bro got a one-time virus". Hahahaha.

By that point, I had already forgotten that 12 hours had already passed lmao, but I remember that there was nothing that comes out after that day. I don't know if the antivirus went on to catch the threat or not. But like, dude. It got worser from this point on LMAO.

Weeks pass by, and around end-April or mid-May, I felt a huge impact that it actually screwed up my 1TB HDD. I had to find a substitute for this. Luckily I found a 512GB SSD, not much, but probably enough. I remember seeing the error as Unallocated Sector Count or something among the line, but it was at a high level. 16k Sectors to be exact. I can show the picture but it has my information and I am lazy to blur it out.

Here's my old HDD:

RIP TOSHIBA HDD 2016-2023
