Varagua Caecilian (Gymnopis multiplicata), family Gymnophiidae, found in Central America

Caecilians are amphibians, like salamanders and frogs. (They are vertebrates).

They are not worms, nor are they snakes.

Most species are either fossorial (burrowing), like this species, or aquatic.

in Disco Elysium I was expecting there to be some kind of “addiction mechanic” that would add a long-term downside to taking drugs, and was surprised not only by the absence of any such mechanic but also that the benefits of drugs greatly outweighed the cost. anyways fast forward to the late game and I was downing three bottles of pyrholidon and smoking an entire pack of cigarettes before attempting any check, and it was only then I realized there was in fact an addiction mechanic

[tenorgender]

honestly, i think this is why i like the way the game handles substances so much. when i was looking up playthroughs of disco elysium i stumbled across one subreddit thread where someone asked “gameplay wise, is there any point to staying sober?” and just looked at it. like, yeah. yeah, exactly. we know that harry often does drugs specifically so that he can take on a superhuman caseload - as he puts it to kim, to be a “really good detective”. it was so chilling to see a player asking the same exact question that harry would probably be asking himself. without an external punishment mechanic, without being heavy handed about it, and in a way that (as OP pointed out) is so natural as to be almost unnoticeable, it manages to put the player exactly in his shoes as a recovering (or not recovering) addict. it’s a really well-designed mechanic

[its-snowtime]

“Things are harder without this substance, so there’s no reason for me to abstain” being a purely Player-Driven interaction is a phenomenal addiction mechanic. Absolutely fucking gorgeous.

Also the way that you get the tasks (Disco Elysium’s equivalent of quests) “find smokes and smoke them” and “find booze and drink it” pretty early on in the game, and not drinking or smoking means that you get to have them right there in your task list, staring at you every time you open your journal. It really does a phenomenal job of replicating that nagging feeling in the back of your mind that you can ignore but it never really goes away.

In my first playthrough I remember saying I wasn’t gonna drink for the entire game, but at some point in the second or third day I was just a few XP short of getting a new skill point which I wanted to use to unlock a white check I had failed, and “find some booze and drink it” was right there in my journal, I had a bottle of Commodore Red I had found somewhere in my inventory, I knew crossing that task off my journal would give me enough XP, so I just went “might as well” and did it because it was the easiest way out.
