it’s just some fog that makes you forget things what’s the problem
well it also makes you remeber things that aren’t your memories and there’s some kind of extra-dimensional mold living in it, but at least it also gives a heartfelt fuck you to maths
Perfect! Give me 3 to go, there’s some stuff I wanna forget
Fog that makes reality forget itself
No spoilers here because almost none of what I’m about to say is mentioned in the game itself.
Harry is a magpie and potentially the next Innocence, which is why the moralist spirit quest ending is what it is. It’s implied that the moralintern is killing magpies as a means of maintaining the status quo at all costs. But a lot of Harry’s premonitions about the future are so dark because 25 years following the events of Disco Elysium, a nuclear bomb is set off in Revachol. Apocalypse cop, firewalker, etc could all be a reference to this novelty that he’s channeling from a future where everything is destroyed.
so is this in the book, or…?
The nuke is for sure, don’t know about the rest of it.
Wait what, I thought DE was a politics/mystery game, what do you mean there’s eldritch lore??
It’s mostly a mystery game, the politics are more of a backdrop. But the entire thing takes place in a small oasis of the world outside of which is nothing but a dense eldritch horror fog.
Wow… I was already intending to finish the game, but now I’m even more intrigued!
