#harrier du bois my beloved

[kendallroynsfw]

the other aspect of disco elysium that i’ve never really talked about, and the aspect of harry i don’t think is discussed enough, is that pre-game harry is…he’s heavily implied to be cruel. and awful. vindictive and bitter and angry, unpleasant to be around, toxic and resentful. jean and dora, and harry’s own perception of himself in his dreams and his conversations with the hanged man, make this pretty clear. but as the player we can do something amazing:

we can make him kind. right from the beginning.

and most of us do. our harry is silly, and whimsical, and sad, very sad, but he’s funny and curious. and kind. he wants to sing karaoke in a hotel bar. he offers his hat to a young girl out alone in the cold. he helps an old woman in a wheelchair search for a mythical creature, even if he doesn’t believe it’s possible. the weight is you and your hate, but you can lift it. disco elysium gives you something broken and ugly and full of resentment and lets you make it something that’s still ugly, sure, and still pretty broken, but it’s getting better. recovery and healing are always within reach. kindness is always an option.

This is what happens if you tell Kim you practice both Mambo and Jambo. If you even care

SAVOIR FAIRE: I'd worry in Necktie's place, lieutenant can get quite creative with a piece of fabric~ I have seen several cases where people were mixing Electrochemistry and Horrific Necktie and tbf they're pretty easy to mix, but there is a slight difference: EC is your pleasure center which wants you to feel good no matter the source, while Necktie is your imaginary drinking buddy who want's you to party hard like young people do (by getting drunk/hight, sleeping with younger women and doing stupid shit for lulz).

So I'm pretty sure our *bratan* won't be Kim's biggest fan (and vice versa), EC on the other hand…

I'm real sick rn so I could come up with nothing other than to publicly document how bad my luck is in Disco Elysium...

Anywaaaaays all I've been doing this last week is playing this game and I am head-over-heels hyperfixated!! Like why haven't I played this sooner? Am I cursed to always be late to the party??

I love how Kim handles Harry’s hallucinations and delusions in general. He’ll tell Harry when he doesn’t see what he sees, but it’s never judgmental or even couched in a “so you’re wrong about what you’re seeing.” He’s just… Kim, my beloved

Fuck it Harry Du Bois cosplay progress

These two look very similar in their portraits (dark eyes, separate noses, long faces) so it did feel like designing relatives. Only two more to go after these two though! Long ID under the cut as always:

[Short ID: Four images depicting the Encyclopedia and Visual Calculus skills from Disco Elysium as larger, more monstrous, versions. The images also include weaker versions that are much smaller. The last two images are design iterations. /End ID]

[ID: Four images depicting both the Encyclopedia and Visual Calculus skills as larger monsters. The first image shows Encyclopedia both at a low level and a high level. At a low level, Harry is tiredly talking to a small Encyclopedia sitting on his desk. At a high level, Harry is stuck inside the paper body of Encyclopedia as it talks at him. The dialogue reads:

Harry: “What do we have on the company?” Small Encyclopedia: “Uh” Harry: “The knife?” Small Encyclopedia: “Um” Harry: “Anything?” Small Encyclopedia: “Your shirt is made of wheat?” Large Encyclopedia is repeating some of its dialogue from Disco Elysium, but the text is faded and jumbled.

The second image shows Visual Calculus at a low and high level. At a low level, Visual Calculus and Harry are standing in front of a lot of footprints in the dirt. At a high level, Harry is sitting on the floor with Visual Calculus sitting behind him. There are extensions from Visual Calculus that make the shapes of furniture and dancing couples in the background. The dialogue reads:

Small Visual Calculus: “There was at LEAST one of them.” Large Visual Calculus: You held each other. You spun her around the room. She smiled at you and laughed. You danced for hours.” Harry, while crying: “Show me again.”

The third and fourth images show different iterations of the high level Encyclopedia and Visual Calculus skills.
