Why does the Bachelor suddenly have misophonia?
This feels like it came out of nowhere. There's no indication he had this quirk in the past two games, and it's especially weird that we mostly only interact with it by deliberately hurting him to boost mania. Is this going to have thematic relevance down the line?

Cool of you to go out of your way to not define what that condition is.

Misophonia is a disorder where you have a decreased tolerance to specific sounds and things you can sense related to them. While it doesn't yet have official recognition as a distinct disorder, experts still recognize it.

Sorry, he just assumed that you'd know what doctor stuff is after playing the game about diagnosing doctor stuff. Quo dicet Valdit e videt esperantur...

He refers to it by name in dialogue and it's rather obvious from context. You can also use Google, like I did.

Incredible stress from the town + allergies from the steppe herbs? I feel like any annoying sounds would make me tweak out also in his situation

thanks, i'm glad you caught that, I was really trying to capture the bachelor's douchebag energy with the latin quote. it's like half the time he can't even stop himself from using a word the other person definitely doesn't know. even in english. or russian.

he is diagnosing himself incorrectly? he doesnt have acute misphonia, aka sensitivity to certain sounds suddenly out of nowhere, but rather it was brought on by the steppe. Something he doesnt (yet) understand. he isnt the haruspex, he is a man of (often fallible) science.

idk how it's voiced in English but it's definitely said jokingly in Russian. Like "Mesophonic now, Dankovsky?" A bit like asking yourself, "Am I dyslexic?" Right after reading something terribly wrong.
