Hmm

The only problem that cannot be solved is when a player rage-quits. All other issues can be addressed.

Self-deprecating humor for simpletons. A miserable existence for tough guys.

when is “everything” bad? like, a spy mission fails, and to prevent revealing secrets under torture, you have to break an ampule of cyanide implanted in a tooth?)

In general, it is difficult to give any objective assessment of the reasons and motives for self-destruction, but specifically in this poll, the question is posed with a very obvious answer.

No, rather, it's when you're not a spy, and you haven't been caught, and generally, no one needs you or your vials of poison.

The survey results clearly show that no one has tried to self-destruct, but you won't know for sure until you try.

You won't know if there's a better world until you die.

Based on the survey results, it's clear that no one has tried self-destruction, but you won't know for sure until you try.

He said it as if he had tried it. But in general, the Heroes player is right; you don't need to be a genius to understand what's going on.

when is everything "really" bad?

Well, let's say you live on the street, eat scraps, beg, get beaten and abused in every way by various people, and on top of that, you have all sorts of ailments, from daily diarrhea to something more serious. Who can be called strong, the one who continues to exist in such a situation, or the one who gathers the courage to end their life?

What is your purpose in asking?

I am curious.

Or a worse one. I ended my life to escape a bad life and ended up in Hell, and I regretted it.

And what is courage? Fear of the unknown? Please. Fear of pain? And is diarrhea painless? If a person is religious, then is courage about overcoming moral laws that you consider important? Well, I would call such courage more like foolishness and childishness, something on the level of Raskolnikov with his "am I a trembling creature or do I have the right?" No matter how you look at it, there is no courage here. But if a person has something to lose, and if he commits this act to save other people, as in the example of Sesame Street, where there might be spies... Then you can talk about some kind of courage, but this is already a completely different situation.

Or the worst. He committed suicide to escape a bad life and ended up in Hell, regretting it.

Can I replay this episode? Was there no checkpoint?

excluding spies and other carriers of information "not for everyone," idiots of the "I'm not afraid" / "I'm not afraid to die for my god" type, and blackmailers of the "you'll regret it when I'm gone" variety, I agree with this:

the general stimulus for suicide is unbearable mental pain

In this case, the answer is obvious – to get rid of the pain, strength is not needed. On the other hand, "unbearable mental pain" often turns out to be not such an insurmountable problem; it can be solved. It could have been solved. By applying some effort.

But what's the point of killing yourself for that? Sooner or later, you'll die anyway.
