How to find Doug in Date Everything!

There are many unique characters you can meet around your house in Date Everything!, all of which are disguised as common household objects. Some of these characters are trickier to find than others, as they appear as items you may not know to check, as is the case with Doug.

Doug is by far one of the toughest characters to meet and is maybe the single trickiest guy to track down. He’s a really interesting Dateable to know, though, so here’s how to find Doug in Date Everything!.

Where to find Doug (#98) in Date Everything!

You can awaken Doug by staring at the wall behind the stairs for 30 seconds with your Dateviators on. This process looks completely different from awakening all other Dateables around the house, so it’s pretty tricky to solve and get done. Here are the exact steps you need to follow to find him.

• On the first floor, walk around to the back of the stairs near the dining room. Turn and face the yellow wall that’s directly behind the stairs, as pictured above. Your exact location doesn’t matter too much here, so just face the wall as directly as possible and you’ll be fine.
• Equip your Dateviators and look at the wall. Do not press the interaction button while looking at this wall because it won’t work. You cannot summon Doug by throwing hearts at him like you can for all other characters.
• Stare at the wall for a full 30 seconds without moving. As soon as 30 seconds have passed, Doug will appear in front of you so you can start chatting it up with him.

Every time you wish to see Doug again, you have to follow these same three steps. He never appears any faster than 30 seconds, so patience is key for summoning him. He does sometimes seem to take a bit longer to appear, so just keep your character still and he’ll eventually show.

What is Doug in Date Everything?

Doug is the personification of existential dread. He’s less of an object and more of a concept, although he is tied to one specific wall, so he’s one of the most unique Dateables you can meet around the house.

How to romance Doug in Date Everything!

If you want to achieve a love ending with Doug, you essentially need to stand up for yourself and not let him treat you badly. Going along with everything he says in an attempt to please him results in a friends (with benefits) ending, so be sure to get real with him and have some tough conversations if you are hoping to find love.

You need to be nice at first, then once you know him a bit better, get more real with him. I recommend waiting to do so until around the conversation where he wants to watch cars crashing on Vidbucket. This is the best point to choose honesty if you want love rather than friendship with him.
