This game should totally have Kevin Michael Richardson voicing a Baludur's Gate style, "You must gather your parts before venturing forth" whenever you try to get Harry to do something while he's lost in conversation with his necktie xD

This may be my favourite Reddit reply of all time

Oh no xD

Anyway, Disco Elysium's great, and here's me gooning on a swing in Portugal

(Harry would be proud. His Horrible Necktie would be liable to disagree 👔)

Don't get me wrong, the fact that IFS has popularized ego state models is great, because they have so much to offer anyone who's got /any/ unresolved material living in their feelings basement (hint; that's most of us)

Just make sure you've got the right support if you're here-&-now-spicy is all ^^

It basically took ego state models that were developed for helping people with Dissociative Identity Disorder / Other Specified Dissociative Disorder (DID / OSDD)...

... and made it more friendly to people who had "normal development", for dealing with smaller chunks of past unresolved material

Importantly - Internal Family Systems (IFS) is really popular right now, and it has a lot to offer, but as above...

Vanilla IFS is known to be harmful for people with C-PTSD & DDs; it can help, but needs a DD trained therapist - this book is excellent: read.amazon.co.uk/kp/kshare?as...

I'd love to replay it & write something on it - feel like I've read a bunch of half-baked, poorly informed articles on the topic, and it'd be a really good teaching tool (and thing to explore for my own interest / benefit)

... but that might just be me misremembering from the player's perspective, where you can neatly see this well organized system on a page, where everyone has a known role, and Harry hears & talks to everyone

His experience, I'll grant you, often feels a lot more chaotic and uninformed xD
