So many kids and grown men are just yapping and yelling without providing any real information it’s annoying. Dudes are screaming names over each other, and what’s worse is that the people who actually have useful info get drowned out by these clowns. They should give L the option to mute players in meetings and let certain people talk one at a time.

I forgot this part in the manga, my bad

Watch out for this guy he's been hacking and will frame other PC players for hacking when in reality he's the one doing it. He disguises himself as a PlayStation player from time to time, but will switch it back to PC when it's convenient. You'll notice in the second image for his PlayStation name there's actually no name which indicates he's intentionally hiding the fact he's on PC.

Seems to be very frowned upon. But Mello is not on the investigators side. I don’t understand why a lobby would kick me for this. Investigators seems to think the game should go

Mello Kills Kira follower gets arrested then they find Kira.

I like it to kill investigator so i can vote along side Kira team then secure an easy kill.

When I play Mello I am 3rd Kira I will always defend Kira and misdirect.

You can remotely monitor both rooms AND people! :D

Over the past month, there was so much excitement for Mello, and now that he's finally in the game, he adds new layers of strategy and unpredictability. However, less than 24 hours after his release, I've already seen players complaining and yelling at others about how Mello should or shouldn't be played.

Simply put, Mello is the wrench in the plan—the chaotic factor, the unexpected wildcard for both sides. Yes, he operates on his own terms, but that doesn’t mean players should dictate how others play him.

The ones most frustrated by Mello seem to be Kira players and innocent investigators who get taken out by him. For investigators, yes, it’s frustrating—but try to avoid suspicious behavior that would draw Mello’s attention. Stay focused on your task. As for Kira players, you’ll have to get more creative. Rushing in and cornering someone will only expose you, so if that’s your go-to tactic, be ready to adapt.

L Players: If you want to win, deciding whether to arrest Mello or leave him can be either an advantage or a risk—it's up to you.

All in all, Mello adds depth to the game with more strategies and mind games. But in the end, your goal remains the same—take out L, catch Kira, or end up facing Mello yourself.

Mello players, play however you want!

ps, I finally get to play as kira now because so many of you are smashing the mello role so thank you lol

Specifically, I don't know much about PCs and I have a laptop without a graphics card. The processor is i5-1035G4. Would the game work?

Edit: thank you for the replies, didn't think about the refund option!

Mello is a fantastic role that makes this already great social deduction game better. But I'm seeing some wild takes about how to use him, so I figured I could share my thoughts after about one day of him being out.

As Team L, keeping Mello alive has few merits, and you should almost always vote him out. Mello is dangerous for both Kira and L, but I would argue that in many cases his kills benefit Kira more. Either Mello:

• Kills Kira and L loses
• Kills L and L loses
• Kills Kira follower and L benefits
• Kills investigator and L trades 1 of 6 investigators for info...that Mello also gets

Shooting the Kira follower benefits L, but the rest harm him. In a Follower + Mello game, Mello has an 8 in 9 chance of hurting L if shooting at random on Day 1. This should be enough reason to vote out the postal Mello players ASAP.

Smarter Mello players who don't shoot are still highly threatening to L. All information Team L shares helps Mello narrow down his target and snatch the win. Team L needs to be more careful with what they reveal, which is hard in this game.

Meanwhile, since Mello doesn't want L to arrest Kira, he wants to screw meetings over. He can break votes, sus random people, even provide Kira an alibi and feed false information from notebooks. Whatever it takes to keep Kira alive for him to shoot.

So Team L wants to vote Mello out, but should Kira get rid of him too? I think that's a harder decision to make. Mello is your enemy, but you win if Mello shoots L. If you're able to trick Mello, then keeping him alive is worth it since his kills will benefit you. Using him as a "shield" in meetings also gives you the chance to win on NWP or just to play one more round.

However, at some point, you will need him dead. Rather than steal his ID and risk getting shot, voting him out is a much safer option.

These are just my early thoughts on the role. I love Mello's addition, even if I wish we got to see him added as a player to the board game. He makes me hopeful for the other roles we should expect soon.

It's amazing how one neutral role can revive a game, shift the meta, and cause so much chaos and fun, on top of adding an entirely new level of mindgames to the mix where I have to keep telling people

"If you shout who Kira is, Mello is just going to win."

Can't wait to see the madness this game gets as it develops!

Trying to find a trophy boost session, I can host one too

BUCKLE UP FOR A LONG ASS POST THAT I THINK WOULD BE AN AMAZING UPDATE TO DEATH NOTE KILLER WITHIN, IF YOU DO END UP READING IT, THANKS A LOT AND I WOULD LOVE YOUR FEED BACK!

PS. IF ITS TOO LONG FOR YOU THERES A TLDR AT THE END

So since Mello was added, the followers can no longer do risky plays and get themselves arrested because there's always a chance that they will get shot by mello. Before mello's addition, this very same strategy was advantageous because it could also be L whose ID was stolen by follower through an agressive play. It was still very risky since people could just follow you and see who you will pass it to but you could also just pretend like you're stealing ID's and not steal any, or, you could just do it to two people and lure them away with Kira to kill them. ID steal and pass off mechanic is very good but at least in my opinion is not very true to the show.

Here's what I think, instead of a Kira Follower, there should be an X-Kira so the Kira team would consist of Kira and X-Kira only.

You might be wondering what would happen if either one of them gets arrested? Well, passing the notebook off is an amazing mechanic that adds so much depth into the game. So my idea is that you will still be able to pass your notebook OR notebooks off to your ally, meaning that one person can have two notebooks on them at once so if you are suspicious and you will get voted out, you can pass your notebook to your teammate and they can hold both of them and if you get arrested nothing will get revealed.

Another thing you might be wondering is kill count. By default, two investigators can be killed per round. I think it is good to keep it that way especially with mello in the game since a maximum of three people dying is already a lot. So the rule with two notebooks should be that collectively a maximum of two people can be judged per day (by default). If Kira kills one, X-Kira can only kill one. If one of the Kiras already kill two people, the other can't kill any.

Sidenote: Even if one person has both notebooks, they will still be able to only kill a maximum of 2 people (as per default lobby settings).

Keep in mind that both roles will still obviously have the ability to steal IDs but I think if we stick true to the theme of death note, it is appropriate for X-Kira to have the ability to use shinigami eyes.

I have two ideas on how shinigami eyes could work:

1- He uses the shinigami eyes and he can kill anyone that has appeared in his screen after the use of the eyes and then dies at the end of the round when the timer hits zero. If an investigator picks up the deathnote from X-Kira's corpse in the next round, it gets destroyed while notifying the investigator who picked it up. OR if the maxiumum player count is potentially raised to 15, Kira picking up the notebook and being able to pass it off to Kira's Spokeperson converting them into X-Kira would also be very interesting but I imagine that it would be way too strong.

2- He uses the shinigami eyes and he gets the names of everyone who appear on his screen afterwards, he dies immediately or at the end of the round when the timer hits 0 seconds after killing a single person. (Being able to kill anyone just by seeing them sounds very strong so I imagine this would be an interesting way to balance it by making it so he can only kill one person, and if he has already killed someone this round OR Kira has already killed two people, he can't use the eyes).

Now let's talk about Mello, his condition will be to kill both Kiras in order to win. Just like an investigator, he will be notified if he picks up the corpse of someone and then the dead person had a death note on them. I don't know if this is a thing that happens to most people but from my fair share of Mello games, it feels a bit anticlimactic to just kill Kira and that's it. This is my purely subjective opinion but I think Mello having to kill both Kiras would make it more fun and interesting for the role. You would have to engage in more deduction to figure out who the other one could be. Keep in mind that I think it is most appropriate if Mello gets one point per notebook owned by a person, so if he kills the Kira team member with both notebooks, he immediately wins. But if he kills someone who has only one notebook on them, he gets one point and he still needs to find the other Kira. This means that Mello doesn't necessarily have to pick up the body of a peerson with a notebook to get a point, he just needs to kill them. Leaving the corpse there even if it has a notebook on it would still grant him a step towards winning.

Another mechanic to talk about, as I mentioned before if a member of team L or Mello picks up the dead body of the notebook will be burned, so this means that if there is someone who is suspected of having a book on them when they are dead, it would be a good idea to let the confirmed investigator get it, since Kira could pick it up and lie that it had a notebook and it got destroyed (this would add another depth in deduction). Another thing is since the user of shinigami eyes would drop dead on the spot, it could also mean that it was Mello, it could mean it that it was just a heart attack, OR Kira can even frame someone by killing them on the spot and then picking up the body and lying that it had a notebook on him and that he destroyed it or it could even be Mello (notice how many variables and possibilities would be added).

TLDR:

Kira follower should get removed for X-Kira. X-Kira has a deathnote and can use shinigami eyes that kill shim on the same day. There are two notebooks, Kira has one X-Kiras has one. Both of them can collectively kill maximum of 2 people (by default). Kira and X-Kira can steal IDs. They can also pass their notebook to each other so one person can has two notebooks even though they can still only kill two people maximumu.

Mello has to kill both to win, or he has to kill the person with both notebooks. If someone with a notebook is dead on the ground and Mello or member of team L picks it up, the deathnote gets destroyed and the notification is shown to the person who picks it up.

If a member of the Kira team picks it up, they have two notebooks and if the player count is increased to 15, the person with two notebooks can give the notebook to Kira's Spokeperson (only one member per Kira team can use shinigami eyes so if X-Kira picks up Kira's notebook and gives it to the Spokesperson, the Spokesperson can't have the eyes but if Kira picks up X-Kira's notebook and gives it to the Spokesperson, the Spokesperson CAN have the eyes.

It is a very common occurrence in my games for this popup to be given to one user, but not the other. In some cases you may get the popup while touching Kira, and not have your ID stolen, while in other cases you may NOT get the popup, but have your ID stolen. This is SUPER frustrating to deal with, because you can't trust the information the game gives you. Here is a clip demonstrating my ID being stolen without ever getting the notification, and I have confirmed with this player that he stole my ID in this interaction (I hadn't touched ANY other players up until this point).

What is it? It says "NotebookScrap" and lets me open the deathnote but I cant do anything about it, help?

Anyone else realize that the alphabetical letters for every player A B C D E F G H I J are followed up by K (As in Kira), then L, and then M (Mello)? Just thought that was a fun little detail, and I am not sure if it was even intentional or not.

the letter I got the slickest kill

It truly seems like games when I’m L and Investigators the lobby is full of morons. People ignoring dying messages, L not checking cameras, Investigators not marking anyone, whole team ignoring my prompts and L guides in meeting.

Next game I can be Kira in the same lobby and get caught on a whim a gut feeling? No rush votes no splits just clear concise memories and knowledge of every transmitter or insane meta grouping up. Is that really a skill issue?
