In retrospect I feel I should add that I'm sure if I had no such experience with mental illness I would still have adored the game for its incredibly powerful storytelling and performances, rich atmosphere, masterful audio-visual design, awesome combat, and satisfying puzzles.

But the way its themes resonated so profoundly with my own personal lived experience just made it that much more special.
