#i love hearing my friend ramble about their most recent excapades in the game

[crypticallylies]

Things I've learned about Disco Elysium through my friend, despite never playing the game or paying attention online:

• Harry or Henry or whatever his name is is incredibly mentally ill

→ he wakes up with no memories

→ he literally blacks out and loses PHYSICAL HEALTH anytime he thinks about his ex-wife

→ there are so many voices in his head

• Kim whats-his-name follows you everywhere in an "annoying pose" with his hands behind his back, judging Harry (rightfully) for everything he does

• There's a horrific tie that talks in, reportedly, the best voice in the game

• harry is the most pathetic guy to exist he is literally like a wet cardboard cutout of a sad dog. and he probably smells like wet dog too

• there's a murder case happening apparently?

• My friend apparently chose to make their Harry so incredibly stupid he did not even know what a postcard was, but he's great with people!

→except for when she messaged me asking if she should take a 17% chance to punch a guy (i said yes) (she failed) (it was apparently a racist) (she nearly died) (its ok she succeeded when she tried again later)

• At some point Harry can input a random "familiar" number and sob to his . presumably ex wife. but we have no idea if this leads anywhere because my friend saw him losing health and morale so quickly during the phone call that she quit the game and reloaded the last quicksave

•it took learning harrys name was harriet dubois to tell the difference between whether he was named henry or harry. i still call him harry on accident

• the horrific tie is the best character in the game
